Liza Minnelli is done flirting with "Celebrity Rehab" -- sources directly connected to the negotiations tell TMZ the singer has officially turned down the reality show idea ... for now. 
We're told Liza "flipped out" when we broke the story earlier today that she was in talks to work out a deal in the $500,000 universe -- and now she's put the whole thing to bed.
An inside source at the show tells TMZ they're not giving up -- adding, "We want her in the Mackenzie Phillips/Gary Busey position -- already sober but strengthening her sobriety. We would not portray her as a drug addict."

First off, there's no evidence she is in need of rehab, secondly, I adore this woman! Oh my god! I would love to rip her clothes off and bang her like an escaped mental patient. Anyway, she's a MILF. Later!

Is Dr Drew mad? He thinks he can take on Hollywood royality and treat them with no respect. He is an incompetent media whore who would do anything for ratings. She would be insane to go on this pathetic show.

She still comes here to Reading, PA (well, actually Wernersville) to the former Chit-Chat rehab that she has been in numerous times for monthly therapy sessions. What more could we ask for...Liza and Kate Gosselin in the same freaking town.

Good for her! Dr. Drew has become quite the douchebag. He wants to exploit people's personal problems for a buck. That is not very "doctorly" of him now, is it?

If they could get Liza and a couple of other real celebrities they could have a great show and show and people would tune in but they are not going to have anything real celebrities want to be a part of with a man who was a tiny part on a television show and a lying want a be crazy.

Bravo MISSY...Drew truly is a low pathetic TV DOCTOR. Where did he earn his degree? Perhaps from BOX TOP U ?? (Cheerio's Campus) WHERE DOES HE GET OFF TRYING TO CALL PEOPLE OUT FOR HIS OWN SELF PROMOTION?

Would she at least consider Celebrity Eyebrow Rehab.
FOR THE SANITY OF EYEBROWS if nothing else.
Actually...I like Liza. And one thing we have to give her is that she is still alive while so many others, well, aren't.
Life might be tough but she's negotiated through 60-plus years of it with a much bigger and more impressive body of work than some nameless 20-something Lindsay Lohans we know.
Oops! I let the name slip.
Think of the GRAVEYARD of "talent" that Liza has outlived despite herself. So maybe she knows what she's doing to some extent. Just because she might not do it IN PUBLIC doesn't mean it hasn't been effective.

Shut up with your stupid comments----she has more talent in her little finger than you could ever dream of. She's from a generation that was less hostile too...she's not a mean person. In her life Liza has experienced incredible things,people and amazing Broadway success and she's a very good film actress. What most idiots like you can't fathom is a truly artistic person like Liza. Artists are DIFFERENT. And yeah, her make-up looks great.
She looks great. Age happens to everyone too, by the way. Morons, try posting your photo when you're her age and lets see how many people think you look not so hot. Judy Garland's daughter is a sweet, complex, high-strung,famous artist who has a very human,imperfect life. As for her critics, ? No one knows who the hell you are, do they ?!
