Liza Minnelli trips over dog, breaks leg in three places

Liza Minnelli broke her leg after tripping over her dog.

The 65-year-old Hollywood legend bust her right limb in three places after accidentally falling over her pet pooch.

The Cabaret star was spotted being pushed around New York in a wheelchair and told reporters how she hurt herself.

She said: "I've busted my leg in three places, generally that calls for concern."

When asked by TMZ.com how it happened, she replied: "I tripped over my dog. Of all the things I've done and I break my leg tripping over my dog!"

Perhaps Liza will be nursed back to health by one of the "few people" she is dating.

The singer-and-actress - who was previously wed to cabaret performer Peter Allen, director Jack Haley, Jr sculptor Mark Gero and Michael Jackson: Life of an Icon producer David Gest - recently revealed she is romancing more than one man and has stopped taking relationships seriously.

She said: "I'm just seeing a few people. I have a couple of people and I'm not saying anything else, so let's not go there.

"Why on earth should I get married? I can't have kids. When you get to a certain age it's not important anymore. It's different for everybody, but for me it's just ridiculous.

"If you love somebody, you love them."
