I think it all started when I purchased those tickets for Azure Ray. I wanted them to be a surprise, but Liza found them when she was going through my coat pockets looking for spare change. That’s when she threw the lamp at me.

Yes, it’s David Gest, estranged husband of Liza Minnelli, in an intimate Pollstar.com interview….

I still remember when we were backstage at Yngwie Malmsteen. I said it was time to go home. Well, I guess she wasn’t quite ready to leave. She called me a “wuss.” Then she wrapped her fingers around my neck and started choking me. Here, you can still see her fingerprints around my trachea.

Get the inside scoop on what was once considered to be entertainment’s hottest marriage, as David describes trips to Italy, France and England…

Lessee… We were in London for Bad Religion when she broke the vodka bottle over my head. We had just seen B.B. King in Paris when she tripped me and pushed me in the Seine. And I’ll never forget that time when we were in Rome for Jefferson Starship, and Liza bludgeoned me with the hotel fire ax.

Watch as David lays out all the juicy details on how America’s most glamorous marriage crumbled into ruins…

We were getting ready to see Rod Stewart at the Garden when she started complaining about the seats. She said they weren’t good enough for a “star” of her “caliber.” Then she jammed the ice pick into my ear.

You’ll hang on every word as David describes how a 57-year-old star of stage and screen physically abused a 50-year-old, pudgy, show biz entrepreneur…

I think the last straw was when we were in Los Angeles for Sarah Brightman. I told her I was sorry that I couldn’t get anything better than second row seats. But she said she didn’t want an apology. She wanted blood.

It’s a blow-by-blow account of some of the saddest, most personal moments in show business…

I kept screaming, “But, Liza. It’s me, David. Your little wiggly-poo! For the love of God, please put down that chainsaw! Ooooh… You are soooo like your mother!”

Be sure to join us as David Gest reveals all the intimate, gory details about his sixteen-month marriage to Liza Minnelli…

And that’s when she cut off my head.

Coming up later tonight…

But then, I’m in show business. It’s not like I’m going to need it anyway.
