Jeremy Jordan: Her name is Liza, and not Chita

Anyone remember that ''Forbidden Broadway'' parody about people who confuse Chita Rivera with Rita Moreno (or vice versa)? Here's a variation: Two weeks ago, I reported that Jeremy told a funny story about his literal run-in with Chita Rivera at the Tonys. He said Chita, frightened by an onslaught of male dancers running offstage, grabbed Jeremy and said, ''Save me!'' Turns out he meant to say that was Liza, not Chita. So we've updated our story to include Jeremy's cute correction/mini-apology at the end.
