Jane\u201d joke, all the other moments from the 2022 Oscars have been mostly forgotten. Considering that the show featured plenty of expected virtue signaling, including a song and dance number <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/wanda-sykes-opens-oscars-announcing-to-people-in-florida-we-are-going-to-have-a-gay-night\">featuring the word \u201cgay<\/a>\u201d for all the Florida residents, that\u2019s actually a good thing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>However, many fans did notice Lady Gaga for her exceptionally kind treatment of an ailing Liza Minnelli.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Minnelli, 76, has been battling health issues for years. She appeared as a presenter at the Academy Awards in a wheelchair alongside Gaga. The \u201cBad Romance\u201d singer is a big fan and has always said what an inspiration Minelli was for her own career.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>As the Hollywood legend struggled with her lines and appeared confused, Lady Gaga deftly rescued her without becoming patronizing and generally exemplified what it means to respect the humanity in another person. Fans were overjoyed to see this touching interaction between the two recording artists, BuzzFeed <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeednews.com\/article\/stephaniesoteriou\/lady-gaga-liza-minnelli-oscars\"><span>reported<\/span><\/a><span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Lady Gaga gripped Minnelli\u2019s hand for most of the time leading up to them announcing \u201cBest Picture\u201d together, giving a physical reminder that she was with her. When the audience started applauding Minelli\u2019s cameo appearance, Gaga stepped back and said to her, \u201cYou see that? The public, they love you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Minnelli could be heard laughing as she fumbled with her notes and said, \u201cOh yes, now what am I\u2026I don\u2019t understand.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Gaga smiled and told her: \u201cI\u2019ve got it,\u201d before introducing Minelli to the audience as a \u201ctrue showbusiness legend.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Minnelli struggled through her lines a few more times, and each time she did, Lady Gaga rescued her without talking over her, making it seem like it was all part of the script.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Then came the much-buzzed about hot mic moment when Gaga leaned over and whispered to Minnelli, \u201cI got you,\u201d to which Minnelli replied: \u201cI know, thank you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Social media had nothing but praise for Gaga\u2019s treatment of the ailing celebrity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIt warmed my heart to see how considerate and caring Lady Gaga treated the terribly fragile Liza Minelli without robbing her of her dignity,\u201d one person shared on Twitter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThis is like a lesson in how to facilitate older people while honouring who they are.
