Biography
The future American actress was born in the South of America, in the city of angels - Los Angeles. The creative atmosphere enveloped the little girl from the very birth. Judy Garland, Lisa's mother, dramatic actress and singer gave her acting talent to her daughter. Father, Vincent Minnely, is a famous American photographer and filmmaker.
Lisa first appeared on the screen at an early age - at 3 years old. After the parents divorced, the girl stayed with her mother. After a while, Judy remarried and gave birth to two children, who in the future also linked their lives with creativity. Due to the mother's new marriage, Lisa's family had to often change their place of residence, so the girl's childhood was not very rosy. These circumstances also affected the mother's health, so for some time Lisa took care of her younger brothers and sisters. When the woman's condition improved, Lisa often began to appear on the set with her mother. Most likely, it was this fact that nurtured in the girl a love for the stage and everyone's attention. Judy taught her daughter everything.
When the future star grew up, directors began to notice her acting talent and vocal abilities, inviting the girl to audition and shooting. Family relations between mother and daughter were restored, until the moment when Judy saw a rival in her own child. Lisa combined talent, beauty and youth. After participating in a joint project, the girl noted that she did not work with her mother, but with Judy Garland. After this event, relations again became tense.
Creativity and career
The creative path began with theatrical performances. At the age of 17, Liza Minnelli won her first acting award. After 2 years, the girl became part of the approved cast in theatrical performances on Broadway. She received the prestigious Acting Achievement Award for her work. Thanks to her vocal skills, the girl often won prize statuettes in the nomination "Best performer".
Universal recognition and reverence overtook the girl at the beginning of her career. The famous musical "Cabaret" with Liza Minnelli in the title role is still one of the most popular performances of the actress. In this project, the girl appeared before the audience as a singer from England, who ended up in Germany during the Second World War. After the premiere of the musical film, Liza Minnelli quickly becomes a world famous celebrity, therefore, thanks to the extraordinary success of the musical, the authors create their own author's show for Liza Minnelli.

One of the most famous musical compositions is the song about New York, which the girl performed in the film.
A decade later, the actress began to take less part in filming and theatrical performances. After many years, Liza Minnelli took part in the sensational film "Sex and the City". Such a long break in her creative career is associated with the deteriorating health of the actress. Diva went through many operations, as she worked a lot from a young age and did not pay enough attention to her health. After the premiere of the film, critics rated the work of the actress unsatisfactorily and awarded the Golden Raspberry award, which is awarded for failed roles. Apparently, professional critics decided that Liza Minnelli had better not change her genre - the musical. At the moment, the last role of the actress is a cameo appearance in the TV series "Life is like a show". The genre of the TV program is musical, so many fans appreciated the appearance of the cabaret queen Liza Minnelli in the show.
Personal life
In family life, Liza Minnelli was unlucky. Many saw some similarities between the fate of the girl and her mother. The star has been married 4 times.
