LIZA Minnelli has stuck the boot into the Australian musical The Boy From Oz, which she maintains exploits the memory of her former husband, Peter Allen.
Minnelli, who tours here in October, also reveals she didn't know Allen was gay when they married in 1962.
They divorced 10 years later when he "came out".
Revealing also that she had no input on the musical, she told Queensland Pride magazine: "No, of course I didn't know. I don't think he knew either . . . and when he did (come to terms with it) of course he told me and of course I said, 'I understand'. But it was hard."
