Jay Armstrong Johnson's Wild Moment with Liza Minnelli
25 May
Summary
- Johnson danced with Kim Cattrall in 'Sex and the City 2'.
- He witnessed Liza Minnelli forget choreography during filming.
- He is currently starring in 'Heated Rivalry' musical parody.

Before achieving Broadway recognition, actor Jay Armstrong Johnson experienced a surreal moment dancing alongside Kim Cattrall in the film 'Sex and the City 2'. This early career role, which he still receives residual payments for, involved a memorable scene where Liza Minnelli performed Beyoncé's 'Single Ladies' at a wedding.
Johnson recalled the distinct memory of Minnelli momentarily forgetting the dance steps during filming. He also noted the presence of fellow Broadway actors like Andrew Rannells and Max von Essen among the background performers. Johnson described the overall experience as 'bonkers' and still marvels at the absurdity of the situation.
Currently, Johnson is performing on stage in the Off-Broadway production of 'Heated Rivalry: The Unauthorized Musical Parody'. The show, which also features Jimin Moon, runs at the Culture Club of New York City until September 7.
