Circling Buzzards: The first lingerer of the year

The first lingerer of the year - Elizabeth Taylor

Finally (respectfully). I believe she has been in the buzzards pool since the inception. I can't relly say much about her as I have seen none of her movies and never married her (she had a few from my understanding).

21 points for me which moves me in to 2nd place.

P.S. - Thanks to the Buzzards #1 fan for alerting me of this.
