Few people know that one of Elizabeth Taylor's favorite colors was yellow. She married Richard Burton in a gorgeous canary-yellow dress designed by Irene Sharaff, who also designed Elizabeth's costumes for Cleopatra. Elizabeth had 65 costume changes for the role, a record for a motion picture at that time.
One afternoon, Michael Jackson came to Elizabeth's house for an impromptu visit. He was very excited to see her because he had a special surprise. Michael was well aware of how much Elizabeth loved the color yellow, and it was certainly no secret that Elizabeth loved diamonds. With his vivid imagination, he dreamed of a gift for Elizabeth that would really make her heart sing. When he saw Elizabeth, he was unable to hide his excitement and had a huge grin on his face. Michael was always thrilled to see Elizabeth, but he seemed extra enthusiastic this time. Elizabeth said, "Michael, what's going on? You are positively giddy." After a moment, Michael pulled a small jewelry box out of his back pocket and Elizabeth's eyes widened. Gifts in small boxes always made Elizabeth's heart beat a little faster. Elizabeth opened the box and squealed with joy. It was a stunning yellow diamond tennis bracelet! He was so proud that he had the idea of combining two of Elizabeth's favorite things into one spectacular jewel. He put the bracelet on her wrist and she didn't take it off for a year.
