gcreptile 10,972 Posted May 23, 2021 This twitter account lists things and people that Liza Minnelli has outlived: https://mobile.twitter.com/lizaoutlives?lang=en Because "she will outlive us all". And she has just recently outlived her Arrested Development co-star Jessica Walter. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,346 Posted October 24, 2021 Liza Minnelli singing last month. People can make their own judgement but to me she seems quite diminished and older than her years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,050 Posted November 27, 2021 I've not heard a peep from her about Sondheim's death? Maybe I'm missing something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She doesn’t use social media much as far as I can find. Unless she has declined rapidly she was well enough in September in the clip above to sing to people.

It kind of worries me enough to consider adjusting one of my teams for next year. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The classic example when Benny Hill gave a tribute to Frankie Howerd despite already being dead himself. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was at a party last night and someone there started talking about the new Cabaret production. Somebody (who is an old stage actor in the West End) jutted in to mention that Liza was in a "very bad way right now". He didn't know any more details. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if he means right now as in recent deterioration and she could go with days or weeks or simply a further decline from her many illness but that she might well linger well into 2022 or even beyond.

Gooseberry Crumble 5,346 Posted December 31, 2021 For what it's worth for any deadpoolers who haven't yet submitted all of their teams -Liza Minnelli apparently has become good friends in recent years with Betty White who died today. I seem to recall that they live near each other or even in the same posh complex were several aged celebrities live. Todays sad news about the death of her friend arguably may not help Lizas rumoured predicament health wise. Just something those with incomplete team lists might wish to take into account.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gooseberry Crumble 5,346 Posted January 17, 2022 I am not 100% sure this is new but this just came up on my Instagram and is hash tagged 2022 . A CBS TV interview with Liza. God I love her! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mouth drooping at one side (sorry if that offends you @TheKeysOfMarinus)... could suggest a past stroke? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,641 Posted January 17, 2022 1 minute ago, Lafaucheuse said: Parkinson ? Could be. There is some shaking going on so would suggest something neurological at play. I see it was also noted in the articles covering the interview that her performance that day was a real treat because she "was no longer able to perform to fans".... there's a lot of euphemisms and half statements going on. I'd really like to know what's actually going on as I picked her in the DDP! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes she did seem to struggle a bit with her speech. Not 100% sure why. Made me quite emotional. She seemed determined but frail. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,477 Posted January 17, 2022 My first thought were stroke tbh, which would fit in with the speaking issues. Certainly been in the wars whatever it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CBS who produced it certainly make it appear as if it’s new. Her singing voice sounds less affected by what ever is going on than her speaking voice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She turned 75 in March 2021, so begs the question when was it actually filmed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Feinstein on his Instagram implies it’s fairly recently filmed. The last time through she is dated in any footage is from September. I can’t imagine them being able to film it last spring for example due to Covid issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
