"Remembering Elizabeth Taylor"
A Friendship That Lives On...Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor meet in 1980 because of Michael Jackson's concert at Dodgers Stadium. Michael had learned that Elizabeth Taylor had attended the show but, had left the show early. Michael being worried as to why she had left, got in contact with Elizabeth Taylor after the show. Elizabeth Taylor told Michael that she left because she could not see his performance from where she was sitting.
The phone call that Michael Jackson made to Elizabeth Taylor on that day started a wonderful and beautiful friendship that lasted for well over 29 years. In January of 1993 Elizabeth Taylor presented Michael Jackson with the International Music Award at the American Music Awards and in February of 1993 Elizabeth Taylor came on and talked about their friendship with Oprah during a LIVE Exclusive Interview with Oprah Winfrey and Michael Jackson at the Neverland Valley Ranch. In 1997 Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor did a special Hollywood taping in honor of Elizabeth Taylor called "Happy Birthday Elizabeth: A Celebration of Life". In 2001 Elizabeth Taylor came to support Michael at his 30th Celebration at Madison Square Garden". During an interview in 2006 Elizabeth Taylor shared that she and Michael told each other everything and that they had bonded over their past as childhood stars and Hollywood experiences. She said, "He is part of my heart. We would do anything for each other". They supported each other throughout the years, with birthday parties, concerts, weddings, and various celebrations. Michael named Elizabeth Taylor the Godmother of his children. Along with Michael's family leading the way, Elizabeth Taylor spoke out on Michael's behalf during tough times for Michael in different court cases. In June of 2009 when the world stood still and millions of fans across the globe were in shock and tears to learn that Michael had suddenly passed away, Elizabeth Taylor spoke out once again but, this time her words were few and from a broken place, a missing of a friendship and a love one that could never be replaced. She did not feel Michael would have wanted her to express her grief publicly but, what she felt she should keep private. Even though she had just been in the hospital for heart surgery Elizabeth Taylor came to support the Jackson family and remembered her friend Michael at his funeral. In October of 2009 Elizabeth Taylor called Michael Jackson's: This Is It "the single most brilliant piece of film making I have ever seen. It cements forever Michael's genius in every aspect of creativity". Also, in October of 2009 Elizabeth Taylor was seen out with Michael's three children Prince, Paris, and Blanket still showing her love for Michael and the Jackson family. Many news reports have said, that Elizabeth Taylor was placed in the hospital in February of 2011 due to her congestive heart failure issues. Her publicist spoke out this month in saying, "that she is fine, doing well, she is in the hospital for precautionary reasons and she is being surrounded by family and friends". There has also been talk of Elizabeth Taylor being allowed to return to her home soon. I am sure that all of you can agree with me and the members in wishing Elizabeth Taylor the very best and hope that she continues to do well and our hearts and prayers are with her. pic from: http://4.bp.blogspot.com In Loving Memory of Elizabeth TaylorFarewell Elizabeth Taylor gone to be with our beloved friend Michael, you will truly be missed. -Amber
