Her appearance alongside Lady Gaga was the uplifting highlight of a night overshadowed by The Slap...but a last minute change left her 'very disappointed'
Of course, that's exactly what wound up happening, as many shared concern for her condition after her appearance."She was nervous, and it made her look like she was out of it."
Feinstein said that minutes before they were set to take to the stage, Minnelli was informed she would be seated in a wheelchair instead of a director's chair."Can you imagine being suddenly forced to be seen by millions of people the way you don’t want to be seen? That’s what happened to her," he said.
According to the five-time Grammy nominee, Minnelli pushed back, saying,"No, I will not be seen in a wheelchair in front of everybody. I will not do this. I refuse to do this." Ultimately, though, there was no alternative offered and she relented. But the whole experience allegedly left her"so shaken that she was discombobulated." TooFab has reached out to representatives for Liza Minnelli and the Oscars.
"She was nervous," Feinstein said, suggesting this is why she messed up some of her lines and appeared a little lost."It made her look like she was out of it. And she was just so shaken up that it was."
