Liza Minnelli Says Martin Scorsese Was A Raging Bull In Their Drug-Addled Affair
HuffPost
"It was day and night," the singer and Oscar winner said of how much she and the famous director abused cocaine.
Liza Minnelli wrote in her new memoir that she and director Martin Scorsese had a “passionate” extramarital affair in the mid-1970s that plummeted into cocaine addiction.
The two got together as they filmed the 1977 movie musical dud “New York, New York” when Minnelli was married to Jack Haley Jr. and Scorsese was married to Julia Cameron.
But it seemed the illicit couple’s other love was coke.
“As we filmed, Marty became a heavier and heavier user of cocaine,” Minnelli wrote in the newly released “Kids, Wait Till You Hear This!” per Page Six. “It seemed that it was no longer recreational for either of us. It was day and night. On the set, in between takes, and when we went out in the evening.”
“We were constant companions and I was right there beside him. Line by line, Marty claimed the drug helped his creative juices. Sure it did. Or is that just one more fabulous lie you tell yourself when you’re in the grip of substance use?”
