Happy 77th birthday to Liza Minnelli! In the early 1970's, Liza and Desi Jr were a pretty hot item in Hollywood. It would appear, according to Liza, that Momma Lucy was a huge force who did everything she could to try to push Liza and Desi Jr in front of a minister. 'According to Liza, Lucy is so concerned about their making it legal that she's done everything to make them agree to it. Everything from buying them a house to a seventy foot cabin cruiser they once thought of buying. "What really worries Lucy is that I'll get pregnant before Desi and I are legally married. Why can't Lucy realize that if it's a house or a boat we want we can afford to buy it ourselves!" "Lucy's trying to force Desi and me to get married. She thinks we're living in a sinful relationship; she accuses us of running around and carrying on in public. She views all of this as an immoral way to do things. Lucy would be the happiest woman in the world if Desi and I would finally agree to walk down the aisle, but I'm not going to give in to Lucy."' —Liza Minnelli to Modern Screen Magazine, 1972. #lucilleball #lizaminnelli #desiarnazjr #hollywoodromance #getmarried #mammabear #immoral #livinginsin #minister #downtheaisle #nuptuals #happybirthday #waynelvslcy https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpsjvmxue7z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
