Elizabeth Taylor is said to be losing her battle with heart disease. The Hollywood star - who had a long history of health problems before being diagnosed with congestive heart failure - has allegedly “lost the will to live”.

The 73-year-old is reportedly sleeping between 12 and 14 hours a day and hasn’t left her swanky Bel Air home for a month. Best friend Michael Jackson made a call to Ms. Taylor and told her “Make that change and fight this disease. Just beat it, shamone!”, but she wasn’t going for it.

A source close to the star is quoted in Britain’s Daily Express newspaper as saying: “It’s as if she has thrown in the towel and admitted she has nothing left to live for”. At least she’s honest.

Dah well! In other news, a monkey has learned how to tie its shoes, more on that story later.
