Elizabeth Taylor’s estate is expressing gratitude as Taylor Swift honored the late artist in a new music video.
The popstar recently revealed a music video of her third official track from her latest album ‘Life of a Showgirl’, titled after the name of the big screen icon.
A spokesperson for Elizabeth’s estate told TMZ in a statement that they are “deeply” touched by Taylor’s “extraordinary” honor for the late Hollywood legend.
The statement read, “What makes this piece so remarkable is its pure devotion to Elizabeth’s legacy: composed entirely of archival film clips, from her iconic screen performances to candid moments, it is a celebration of Elizabeth from beginning to end, and an homage in the truest sense.”
“We are delighted by this celebration and the care with which Taylor Swift has spotlighted what so many have long understood: Elizabeth Taylor was a true icon, a trailblazer in every sense of the word. She lived unapologetically and on her own terms, embracing her public life with grace and courage while fiercely protecting the private world she cherished with family and friends. That balance, that duality, was one of her most remarkable qualities.”
The estate further added, “If there is anyone navigating the extraordinary pressures of global fame with comparable authenticity and strength, it is Taylor Swift. The estate is honored that she chose to pay tribute in this way, and have no doubt that Elizabeth would have loved every frame of it.”
