Minnelli Sex And the City Storyline 'a Hoax'

Rumours the new Sex And The City movie will feature a gay wedding and performances by Liza Minnelli and Barbra Streisand has been blasted as a hoax by star Mario Cantone.

Details of the film's top secret plot appeared to have been leaked in recent weeks, with sources insisting the two divas would appear in a ceremony uniting Cantone's character Anthony Marantino and Willie Garson's Stanford Blatch.

Minnelli herself told an Australian newspaper she performed a version of Beyonce's Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it) for the film.

But Cantone insists the rumours are false - hinting they are part of a deliberate ploy to throw fans and the press off the scent.

The actor tells Nypost.com's PopWrap blog, "No, nothing's true. I hadn't even read that. That's hilarious".

And he laughs off the suggestion of a Minnelli cameo "No, I would haveself-combusted! I would have been dead. I wouldn't be here talking to you. I don't even know that she's in the movie".
