News has been released that Kim Kardashian is going to produce. Producer Kim? That makes sense for the beautiful reality TV mogul. She is producing and being featured in a BBC docuseries about the one and only Elizabeth Taylor. They have a lot in common, so let's talk about the strange connections between these two sexpots.
The docuseries is set to get a more nuanced take on the life of one of the most famous actresses to have ever lived. The docuseries will talk about her acting career as well as her star power, discussing how her charm on and off screen captivated audiences and forever changed the notion of celebrity to movie-going audiences. It will also detail her businesses and her activism.
What about her notoriously tabloid love life? So far there is no news on that. We will have to see!
How is Kim involved? As we mentioned, Kim Kardashian is going to produce the docuseries which is a new frontier for the starlet. She has been working more frequently in television by starring in Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story. She is about to work with him again for a legal drama and is going to star in a female-forward comedy called The 5th Wheel. Did Kim get the bug? She decided to stop simply being herself on camera and to start making content. Who better to start a producing career with than Elizabeth Taylor?
“Elizabeth Taylor was unapologetically herself, a fighter,” Kim told the press on her interest in Elizabeth Taylor. “She is proof that you can keep evolving and changing and have different chapters in your life – and she paved the way for all of us who came after her with that blueprint.”
The two have a lot in common, so this pairing makes sense. Elizabeth Taylor became the highest-paid woman in Hollywood and was everyone's go-to celebrity. Kim Kardashian is a larger-than-life celebrity. Both of them have had scandalous love affairs, turning tabloid messes into their own narratives. I don't know if that connection will be explored, but it should.
Taylor had eight husbands. Kardashian has had two husbands so far, but everyone followed her relationship with Pete Davidson and we all remember the sex tape that launched her career. Kardashian grew up with LA royalty, essentially growing up in the public eye despite not necessarily being a child star. Tayrloy, on the other hand, was a child star and she bloomed in front of the public's eye into one of the most sought-after and gorgeous women in the industry.
They can relate on those fronts! No wonder Kardashian is so fascinated by Elizabeth Taylor. Taylor was the model that Kardashian and countless other famous women have been following.
Taylor never went nude, but she did use a body double in the sultry 1967 film Reflections in a Golden Eye. Check out her gilded golden body (double) in this hot scene and remind yourself just how beautiful she was.
