Elizabeth Taylor celebrates 75th birthday
7:16 AM March 1

Film legend Elizabeth Taylor has celebrated her 75th birthday with a New Orleans-themed party.

She has celebrated with her four children and famous friends spanning the generations, from model Kathy Ireland to former rival Debbie Reynolds.

Taylor, who suffers chronic back pain, made a cheerful entrance to the Ritz-Carlton Lake Las Vegas Hotel in a wheelchair escorted by her sons, Michael and Christopher Wilding, and daughters, Maria Burton and Liza Todd, en route to her party at a restaurant in the property.

The two-time Academy Award winner and Dame Commander of the British Empire was adorned by a white fur and satin robe and resplendent in an icicle-design pearl and diamond necklace from her jewellery line called Frost.

Taylor's voice was soft and she seemed frail as she chatted briefly with reporters, telling them her secret to making it to 75 was "just living a very healthy, clean life".
