Kim Kardashian Channels Cleopatra in Harper's Bazaar

By Maggie Coughlan Posted Feb 9th 2011 10:45AM

Kim Kardashian is paying tribute to one of her idols, Elizabeth Taylor, in the March issue of Harper's Bazaar. Dripping with gold and sporting face framing bangs, Kardashian takes a page straight from Taylor's iconic 1963 portrayal of Cleopatra.

When the 'Kourtney & Kim Take New York' star sat down to interview Taylor, there were few questions that went unanswered.

"You are my idol. But I'm six husbands and some big jewels behind. What should I do?" Kardashian asked Taylor.

See what advice Elizabeth Taylor gave Kim Kardashian after the jump!

"I n

ever planned to acquire a lot of jewels or a lot of husbands. For me, life happened, just as it does for anyone else. I have been supremely lucky in my life in that I have known great love, and of course I am the temporary custodian of some incredible and beautiful things. But I have never felt more alive than when I watched my children delight in something, never more alive than when I have watched a great artist perform, and never richer than when I have scored a big check to fight AIDS," Taylor answered.

Kardashian continued, "You have starred in movies with some of the dreamiest men of all time: Rock Hudson, Montgomery Clift, Marlon Brando, James Dean, Paul Newman, Michael Caine, and Warren Beatty. Who else would you have loved to work with?"

"I love Johnny Depp, and I love Colin Farrell -- both brilliant, nuanced actors with great range," Taylor said.

I love how Liz Taylor gives a supremely eloquent answer to the jewels and husbands question, and KK continues with her equivalent of "If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?"

WOW they may have to reright the history books. I knew Cleo was a ho that even slept with her brother and child but I didn't realize she was this nasty.

Good Grief! She looks like a younger Joan Collins..

OH, this sh*t has got to stop!!

What the hell would Kim Kardashian have to ask Liz Taylor. Kardashian is at best a porno performer and Liz Taylor was an outstanding skilled actress. Is this all AOL has to do is manufacture supposed news on Kim Kardashian. This is so tired and old

By Dana

yes yes yes , nothing but crappy publicity for no talent scammers aka prostitutes
