LOS ANGELES (AP) â€” Twice an Oscar winner and eight times a bride, Elizabeth Taylor says she has no interest in extending her string of marriages to nine.

``I'd live with someone if he were cute, intelligent, compassionate, adorable, had a good sense of humor,'' the 68-year-old actress, sporting a new look with a bright red hairstyle, said on CNN's ``Larry King Live'' Monday night. But she ruled out marrying again.

Taylor said she had two great loves in her life, actor Richard Burton, who was married to her twice, and Broadway producer Mike Todd, who died in a plane crash just 13 months into their relationship.

``I didn't think I was going to live after that,'' she said. ``I didn't want to live.''

But the actress, who has overcome several serious health problems throughout her life, also said, ``There must be some reason that God wants me to live.''

``There must be something left for me to do,'' said Taylor, who has spent much of her time in recent years raising money to fight AIDS. ``And I have to find out what that something is and go out there and do it!''
