Elizabeth Taylor, Steve Jobs and Amy Winehouse farewell

**EDITORS PLEASE NOTE: THIS EDIT CONTAINS CONVERTED 4:3 MATERIAL**br The entertainment world lost some big stars in 2011 - among the most high-profile were Elizabeth Taylor, Steve Jobs and Amy Winehouse.br Film legend Elizabeth Taylor, who rose from a child actor to become one of Hollywood's most talented actresses, died age 79 from congestive heart failure in March.br In a career spanning seven decades, Taylor was nominated for five Oscars and won the best actress honour twice.br She battled excess weight and drug addiction throughout her life, and was married eight times, including twice to actor Richard Burton.br Apple co-founder Steve Jobs died in October, age 56, after a battle with a rare form of pancreatic cancer.br He was considered the heart and soul of Apple - a company that rivals Exxon Mobil as the most valuable in America.br Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse died in July, age 27.br Known for her beehive hairstyle and distinctive soulful voice, Winehouse had high levels of alcohol in her blood at the time of her death, which was officially ruled as death from "misadventure."br Her death caused an outpouring of grief and sent her music back to the top of the record charts.br Lisa Giles-Keddie, Reuters.
