Liza Minnelli In Rehab

Minnelli is seeking treatment at a facility in Malibu, reported TMZ. She has reportedly been there for a number of days, receiving treatment for alcohol abuse. A rep for the singer and actress confirmed her latest rehab stint, saying that she is making “excellent progress,” adding that, “Liza has valiantly battled substance abuse over the years.”

The last time Minnelli checked herself into rehab was in 2004. She had been in and out of facilities in the 80s. She was offered $500,000 to join the reality TV show Celebrity Rehab in 2010, but declined the offer.

Minnelli’s mother, the beloved Judy Garland, also suffered with substance abuse throughout her life. She ultimately died of a barbiturate overdose in 1969 at the age of 47.
