My God she was a beautiful young woman, though. So what if she got a little weird. Who hasn't? RIP grande dame!

I think the "tad overweight" comment is poor taste.

Pop culture reference from Doonesbury:

http://www.amazon.com/Tad-Overweight-but-Violet-Eyes/dp/003049186X

The reference is to Elizabeth Taylor and it is done in an affectionate way by Garry Trudeau. That's why there are quotation marks.
