Elizabeth Taylor Tweets on Jackson's Death

Elizabeth Taylor -- who initially was "too devastated" to comment on the passing of her dear friend Michael Jackson -- has just released a statement via her Twitter account:

Michael & Elizabeth
"My heart ... my mind ... are broken. I loved Michael with all my soul and I can't imagine life without him. We had so much in common and we had such loving fun together. I was packing up my clothes to go to London for his opening when I heard the news. I still can't believe it. I don't want to believe it. It can't be so. He will live in my heart forever but it's not enough. My life feels so empty. I don't think anyone knew how much we loved each other. The purest most giving love I've ever known. Oh God! I'm going to miss him. I can't yet imagine life without him. But I guess with God's help ... I'll learn. I keep looking at the photo he gave me of himself, which says, 'To my true love Elizabeth, I love you forever.' And, I will love HIM forever."

Taylor is the one who gave Jackson his royal title, The King of Pop.

61. If all of you dont care for Michael, then why even bother reading articles posted about him? Keep your negative comments to yourselves, and give the man a break. You're all just as bad as the press...always trying to find something horrible to say about him. (Oh, and for all of those who never ACTUALLY followed the claims brought against him: TRY LEARNING TO READ!! The child eventually admitted to his mother, who then said that Michael had done nothing wrong.)

As for me, Michael, I am and will always be a true fan. No speculation, no accusations, no faltering. May God bless his brightest star. I grieve, as i'm sure many others do, and i will continue to follow your footsteps by healing the world one person at a time. Wish me luck! (Thank you for the words and music that have guided me throughout my life.) I'll see you in heaven.
