 That’s Not Fair - Kim Kardashian Says Prisoners Who Fought L.A. Wildfires Were Paid 'Just a Few Dollars,' and She Wants to Change That A renewed push for prison labor reform is gaining attention, with Kim Kardashian stepping in to support new legislation aimed at changing how incarcerated workers are paid. The bill, reintroduced on March 19 by Cory Booker, seeks to ensure that people working while incarcerated receive at least the federal minimum wage. It also proposes limits on deductions for fees, fines, and living costs within correctional facilities, through amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act. Kardashian, who has increasingly focused on criminal justice reform, explained that her support is rooted in what she witnessed during the Los Angeles wildfires.  “I personally watched incarcerated people who risked their lives battling the massive wildfires,” she said, pointing out that many were paid only a few dollars a day despite doing the same high-risk work as profess...

LIZA MINNELLI MAKES BLUNT CONFESSION ABOUT INTENSE RELATIONSHIP WITH MOTHER JUDY GARLAND. (PHOTO).


 Liza Minnelli makes blunt confession about intense relationship with mother Judy Garland


As Liza Minnelli approaches her 80th birthday on March 12, the legendary Cabaret star is sharing stories from her remarkable life in a new memoir, Kids, Wait Till You Hear This!, set for release just two days before the milestone. 


The book delves into her complex relationship with her mother, Judy Garland, and her father, director Vincente Minnelli. Liza recalls that by age 13 she had become her mother’s caretaker, juggling roles of nurse, doctor, and confidante as Garland struggled with addiction.


Judy Garland’s own battles with substance abuse began during her teenage years at MGM, when studio executives pressured her to take pills to manage her weight and energy while filming The Wizard of Oz. Garland died at 47 in 1969, when Liza was just 23. 


Reflecting now, Minnelli acknowledges the difficulties but insists that strained mother-daughter dynamics are universal. She also candidly addresses her own struggles with addiction in the memoir, celebrating 11 years of sobriety and emphasizing resilience. 


“If I can laugh, I can get through anything,” she says, urging others not to give up in their own battles.


Though Liza was Garland’s only child with Vincente Minnelli, Judy also had two children with her third husband, Sidney Luft: Lorna and Joey. 


In her memoir, Liza balances personal candor with humor, sharing both painful truths and uplifting reflections. She describes her life today as “amazing,” crediting her recovery and determination to keep fighting if setbacks occur. 


As she turns 80, Minnelli’s story is not only a look back at Hollywood history but also a message of perseverance and hope.
