One of Michael Jackson‘s closest friends and confidants, Dame Elizabeth Taylor will not be attending today’s public memorial for the late King of Pop.
Why?
The retired actress takes to her official Twitter to explain! Yes, she has one. Yes, that’s really her!
Says Taylor:
“I’ve been asked to speak at the Staples Center. I cannot be part of the public whoopla. And I cannot guarantee that I would be coherent to say a word. I just don’t believe that Michael would want me to share my grief with millions of others. How I feel is between us. Not a public event. I said I wouldn’t go to the Staples Center and I certainly don’t want to become a part of it. I love him too much.
My love goes out to Katherine and Michael’s beloved children.”
Very well said, Dame Elizabeth.
Our thoughts go out to you and all of Michael’s family and friends!
