Shirley MacLaine, who had been a friend of Elizabeth Taylor’s for more than 50 years and appeared with her in the 2001 TV movie ‘These Old Broads,’ recalled the actress in a statement Wednesday morning:

‘I don’t know what was more impressive, her magnitude as a star or her magnitude as a friend. Her talent for friendship was unmatched. I will miss her for the rest of my life and beyond.’
