Legendary entertainer Liza Minnelli, who recently celebrated her 80th birthday, has postponed a highly anticipated one-night event in New York City.

Minnelli announced the postponement via Instagram, explaining that she is "sitting Monday out" on her doctor's advice. She clarified to her followers that the illness is "nothing serious," describing it as a common "damn bug that's going around."
The event, titled "Liza Minnelli & Michael Feinstein: Stories, Songs, Resilience and All That Jazz," was slated to feature discussions on defining moments from her life and career, alongside clips from her extensive filmography. She and Michael Feinstein plan to reschedule the show, with Minnelli assuring fans that "Our show always goes on."
