Judy Garland took a jam-packed crowd in Carnegie Hall in her arms and they hugged her right back—never saw the like in my life. We laughed, cried, and split our gloves applauding. A standing ovation on her entrance lasted four minutes. Each song got thunderous applause and at least half a dozen times the audience rose in appreciation. — Hedda Hopper.

Judy was standing backstage, and she would grab the curtain. And as the drums were going, she would yell at the audience, ‘FUCK ’EM! FUCK ’EM! FUCK ’EM!’ And she seemed to sort of blow up like a balloon in a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade—she would inflate! And then, at the last explosion of the chords, she would just sail out onto the stage; it was like she was a pull toy—she was on a string, and she would glide out. And you would hear roars of applause. — Shana Alexander on Judy Garland’s Carnegie Hall Concert.
