Liza Minnelli behauptet, sie sei bei der Oscar-Verleihung 2022 gezwungen worden, einen Rollstuhl zu benutzen: „Bullen –“

“I was inexplicably ordered — not even asked — to sit in a wheelchair or not appear at all. I was told it was because of my age, and for safety reasons, because I might slip out of the director’s chair, which was bulls—,” Minnelli writes, according to an excerpt published by People on Friday.

“I will not be treated this way, I said. My co-presenter insisted she would not go on stage with me unless I was in a wheelchair,” she adds, noting that she was “heartbroken.”

“I was much lower down than I would have been in the director’s chair. Now I couldn’t easily read the teleprompter above me. How would you feel if you were wheeled out, against your will, to perform in front of a live audience, and unable to see clearly?” she continues.

Minnelli appeared somewhat disoriented on stage and stumbled over her words. Gaga comforted Minnelli by telling her, “I got you.”

This Page 6 writer knows that Minnelli wasn’t “commending” Lady Gaga….right?

*While the moment left her feeling upset, the “Cabaret” actress commended Gaga for her kind gesture after they exited the stage.*

*”So when I stumbled over a few words, Gaga, who was at my side, didn’t miss a beat to play the kindhearted hero for all the world to see. ‘I got you,’ she said, leaning down over me,” Minnelli shares.*
