Liza-VH1 Lawsuit Becomes Reality

*** 2/6 UPDATE: VH1 strikes back, targeting "deceitful" Gest.

Liza Minnelli and her husband yesterday (12/16) filed this breach of contract lawsuit against VH1, claiming that the cable network's abrupt cancellation of the couple's reality-TV program caused them so much damage that they need $23 million to make things right. Minnelli and hubby David Gest were set to star in VH1's answer to "The Osbournes," but the network shelved the program before an episode even aired, claiming that Gest was meddling, uncooperative, and a nightmare with whom to work. According to the complaint, VH1 was to pay the newlyweds at least $1.25 million for 10 one-hour cinema verite episodes. The Minnelli-Gest suit was filed in New York State Supreme Court by Michael Sherman, the lawyer who recently represented Kennedy cousin Michael Skakel at his Connecticut murder trial. (17 pages)
