Even though Lady Gaga is climbing to the top of the ladder of success, she doesn't hesitate to help others along the way.

The singer is receiving praise for her “kind” gesture towards Liza Minnelli at the 2022 Oscars, according to the Independent. Towards the end of the ceremony that took place on March 27, 2022, Gaga and Minnelli appeared on stage together to present the Best Picture award, which was won by Sian Heder’s CODA.

“I’m finally honored to present the final award of the evening with the true showbusiness legend,” Gaga continued. “She’s celebrating the 50th anniversary of Cabaret. Oscar-winning actress, Liza Minnelli.”

Minnelli won the award for Best Actress for her leading role in Cabaret in 1973.

During the entire time the two of them shared the space, Gaga and Minnelli were seen laughing, appreciating one other, and holding hands. But, the moment that won the hearts of everyone watching the show was when the 76-year-old actor was trying to read her lines displayed on the teleprompter, Gaga leaned over to her and comfortingly said: “I got you.”

Pure generosity of soul!” actor Tracy Kornet wrote.
