What a drag! Liza Minnelli enjoys a smoke break as she dons an all-black ensemble in LA... after a recent stint in rehab

She checked herself into rehab earlier this year.

And just under four months later, Liza Minelli looks to be doing just fine.

The 69-year-old actress was spotted enjoying a smoke break out in Beverly Hills on Friday but tried to keep a low profile in a large hat that covered her eyes.

She certainly looked to be relaxed mood as she casually puffed on the cigarette during the warm day in the ritzy Southern California neighbourhood.

The Cabaret star opted for a chic all black look including baggy cashmere top, relaxed fit trousers and leather heeled shoes.

Liza matched the look by accessorising with a black newsboy cap and large designer sunglasses with purple lenses.

She seemed to be wearing minimal make-up for the occasion as she appeared to let her porcelain skin breathe without a visible spec of cosmetics.

At one point the singing legend was approached by a well-known transient who spends time in the area. His signature is a blanket that he wears as a cape.

The man sipped on a coffee as he talked to Liza. 

The daughter of Judy Garland, Liza has battled addiction for years and checked into a Malibu rehab facility on March 18 for help with alcohol abuse.

At the time, her spokesperson Scott Gorenstein said that she was making 'excellent progress.'

The rep added: 'Liza Minnelli has valiantly battled substance abuse over the years and whenever she has needed to seek treatment she has done so.

The last time she checked into rehab was in 2004.

Liza's famous mother also battled addiction to alcohol and pills for most of her life.

Garland died of an overdose in 1969 when Liza was 23.
