Liza Minnelli showed off her signature wit as she revealed her secret to “surviving” her 78th birthday.
Born to iconic actress Judy Garland and famed director Vincente Minnelli, the Oscar winner has persevered through her ups and downs, including setbacks such as health problems and a tumultuous relationship.
“I am so grateful for all the well wishes and all the love that comes my way. Not only on my birthday, but always,” the superstar shared in an interview with People.
“I wish I knew how to behave at my age. I've never been so damn old! Just keep going baby, that's the secret!" she joked.
Also, she shared plans for a "fabulous" celebration on her big day, including a gift from Italian jewelry line Elsa Peretti.
“My dear friends [pianist] Michael Feinstein and Terrence Flannery are throwing a party in my honor,” she explained. "There will be food, great music, and I've been told I'm in for a wonderful surprise, and my only clue is Elsa Peretti!"
The inimitable star shared also her plans for the future. “I'm recording music again! And I’m involved in an exciting collaboration with the brand, which will be announced soon.”
In 2000, Lisa was diagnosed with viral encephalitis, which can cause weakness or loss of movement in some parts of the body.
In recent years, Minnelli continues to struggle with health problems. She is often seen in public in a wheelchair.
