MINNELLI CANCELS CONCERT OVER ILLNESS
LIZA MINNELLI has cancelled a concert in Maine after falling ill.
The Cabaret legend was due to perform at Portland’s Merrill Auditorium on Wednesday night (29Sep10), where she was expected to be handed the key to the city by the local mayor after the gig.
But the 64 year old became sick before her afternoon soundcheck and was unable to go ahead with the show, according to the Portland Press Herald.
Promoters refused to reveal the details of Minnelli’s illness but confirm the gig is off and the singer is "on her way back to New York City".
The star’s representative insists she isn’t seriously ill and will resume performing next month (Oct10).
