Liza just arrived back in NY, and is fine. She will now be seeing her
doctor to determine what caused her dizziness and to collapse
yesterday. Liza did not collapse onstage, as has been incorrectly
reported elsewhere, but off-stage. Again, Liza is fine, and appreciates
the concern of her fans all over the world, and sends them her love.
More will be posted here if needed, but please do know that Liza is
fine.

STATEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE REGARDING LIZA MINNELLI
"Liza Minnelli was scheduled to perform the final show (Dec. 12th) in a
series of four concerts in Sweden this past week when she became very
ill shortly after the show began. Ms. Minnelli who has been on a
triumphant and critically acclaimed tour around the world, had
complained of dizziness prior to the start of the show. As a result, she
was unable to finish her performance and was rushed back to her hotel by
her manager. A doctor upon examining her and in consultation with her NY
physician, determined that it would be necessary for the Oscar winning
actress and singer to immediately return to New York City to receive
further medical evaluation."
This statement was released by Ms. Minnelli's spokesperson Liz Rosenberg

(Obviously there will be updated information posted on Liza as soon as
is possible. Liza is flying back home to NY now, so obviously she is
strong enough and well enough to fly. Again, as soon as there is
updated information to send along, it will be posted. Thanks very much
for your paitence and concern.)
