It’s Liza Minnelli with a new award.
The famed EGOT winner made a rare public appearance during the season 17 finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race on April 18—during which she was awarded with the show’s Giving Us Lifetime Achievement Award. The honor, which has been presented every year since 2023, recognizes those who’ve made an impact on the world of drag and fashion.
Liza made her grand appearance by reclining on a regal throne while her 1972 song “Ring Them Bells” played. Wearing a glittering black top and dark trousers, she accessorized the look with a black cap, loafers and gold bangles.
After receiving applause from the contestants, the 79-year-old told the chanting crowd, “I love you!”
After RuPaul quipped that his look took six hours to put together, Liza responded, “I know! Seven for me—I’m older than you.”
The singer—whose parents were Judy Garland and Vincente Minnelli—went on to share rare memories of her childhood, including watching behind-the-scenes at MGM Studios.
