John Blanchette says Gabor was inconsolable and commented: "Oh, Jane Russell and Liz Taylor - I'm next," in reference to the common myth.
Blanchette says the 94-year-old celebrity was watching the news Wednesday morning at her Los Angeles home when she learned her friend and one-time neighbor had died.
Blanchette says Gabor's blood pressure soared and she was taken to the hospital until Monday evening.
Gabor has been in poor health lately- her right leg was partially amputated in January. But Blanchette calls her a fighter and claims: "She's not going to be the third."
