Hollywood and Broadway legend Liza Minnelli is writing her memoir, Kids, Wait Until You Hear This!, which will be published to coincide with her 80th birthday.

The book promises to cover her childhood with parents Judy Garland and Vincente Minnelli to her breakout successes in Cabaret and Liza with a Z, as well as her marriages and struggles with substance use disorder.

The audio edition will include bonus content with never-released autobiographical recordings and musings that Minnelli and Michael Feinstein have been working on for 15 years.

Minnelli said: “Since I was old enough to put pencil to paper, people asked me to write books about my career, my life, my loves, my family. Absolutely not! ‘Tell it when I’m gone!’ was my philosophy. So, why did I change my mind? A sabotaged appearance at the Oscars, in front of billions of people, a film with twisted half-truths, a recent miniseries that just didn’t get it right. All made by people who didn’t know my family, and don’t really know me. Finally, I was mad as hell! Over dinner one night, I decided, it’s my own damn story, I’m gonna share it with you because of all the love you’ve given me.”

The book will be published on 12th March 2026.
