Kids, Wait Till You Hear This!

De: Liza Minnelli

Narrado por: Liza Minnelli

Global icon Liza Minnelli shares her inspiring story: stepping out from the long shadow of a mega-star mother and legendary film director father, fighting a lifetime battle with addiction, and emerging from it all to become a once-in-a-lifetime artist.

Kids, Wait Till You Hear This! is the autobiography of EGOT icon Liza Minnelli. This fascinating, untold story reveals the intimate truth of the only child born to Hollywood legends Vincente Minnelli and Judy Garland. For the first time, here is Liza up close: Raw, strong, sexy, hilarious and heartbreaking.

Liza decided at the age of 16 that “sympathy is my mother’s business. I give people joy.” That veil of joy, however, masks a lifelong struggle with Substance Use Disorder ("SUD," which Liza inherited from her mother's branch of her family), boundless love to give and an equal need to receive it, broken marriages, multiple miscarriages, and hospitalizations—the highs and lows of unparalleled artistic success and lifelong friendships, as well as chronic anxiety and the threat of financial ruin.

Despite every challenge, Liza’s is a life wrapped in laughter and her tremendous capacity to give and receive love. Today at nearly 80, she opens her heart, mind and memories, sharing secrets we never knew. Liza’s book celebrates supreme artistry and, more importantly, her human rights activism.

“It’s time to tell the truth," Liza says, “and help people heal, as I have, one day at a time.”

Good read, horrible listen

Loving the book and her candor. Her reading is awful. What’s with dropping every “g” from ing.

Outstanding!

What a life! In her own words. I enjoyed listening to her tell her own story. She is right, no one else could do it.

Amazing!

On our road of life we all experience flat tires, however Liza fixed herself and with the help of some true friends she has kept on going! Very thankful she has shared with us what true strength can achieve!
Way to go Liza Minnelli!

Life is a Cabaret

Enjoy the Show….. if you are a Liza fan you will enjoy her words she’s like a long lost friend she gave us what we pretty much have heard or read. Like she says…. What her Momma told her… Give them what they want then get a burger. Liza is an Amazing Talent. So enjoy the show.

Liza's Zest for Life

Loved the whole book and hearing it read by Liza herself made each revelation, observation and description more meaningful. Gave me a greater understanding of her struggles with Substance Use Disorder and her desire to help others by reading about her experience with it. Great, interesting read!
