Dame Elizabeth Taylor's New Statement at The Insider

Elizabeth Taylor 'Devastated' by Jackson's Death

Dame Elizabeth Taylor is expressing her grief over the death of her dear friend Michael Jackson in a heartbreaking new statement.

"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," Dame Elizabeth tells ET.

So so sad when I first heard about Michael's news. I have been your fan my whole life and I always will be. You are an icon, the King of Pop, you'll be missed. Your music will leave forever. RIP Michael.

I also mourn with the rest of the world for the loss of Michael. He truly was the King Of Pop. But also he was a kind heart and a loving father, son, and brother. My love to his family. Deborah Fletcher Ontario,Canada

My heart and my prayers go out to the family and all those who were friends of Michael. I think we should focus on all the wonderful things he's done in his career, how he touched us all with his music and made a difference.
