London
(ANI):
Actress
Elizabeth
Taylor
has
hailed
her
late
long-term
friend
Michael
Jackson
as
a
'modern-day
prophet'.
The
Hollywood
veteran
praised
the
King
of
Pop
on
her
Twitter
page,
calling
him
a
genius.
"To
say
the
man
is
a
genius
is
an
understatement.
He
cradles
each
note,
coaxes
the
music
to
depths
beyond
reality," the
Sun
quoted
her
as
saying.
"You
owe
it
to
yourselves
and
your
loved
ones
to
see
this
again
and
again.
Memorize
it
and
say
to
yourselves,
I
saw
genius
in
my
lifetime.
If
you
listen
to
his
lyrics,
they
are
those
of
a
modern-day
prophet
and
it
beseeches
us
to
listen
to
him
and
what
he
sang,"
she
added.
