Barbra Streisand on Her New Album and if She’ll Ever Direct or Perform Live Again
Barbra Streisand hasn’t stopped working since launching her professional singing career 65 years ago in New York City.
The first performer to earn EGOT status, Streisand’s legacy spans music, theater, film and television.
Now 83, Streisand is releasing “The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two,” a collection of duets with Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Laufey, Hozier, Sam Smith, James Taylor, Sting, Tim McGraw and Josh Groban. Both Ariana Grande and Mariah Carey join her on “One Heart, One Voice.”
“The Secret of Life” comes not even two years after she published her massive 970-page memoir, “My Name Is Barbra,” which was accompanied by 48-hour audiobook that she read. She is also in production of a multi-part documentary about her life directed by Frank Marshall.
Even so, Streisand insists, “I’m very lazy. I don’t like to have to work.”
She adds, “I like to be free. I don’t like to have commitments.”

JFC she looks like a witch in profile.
I understand why she never fixed her nose, but there's such a thing as TOO MUCH body positivity.

If Babs is going to end recording, please do one more album SOLO.
Enough with the "partners" albums. I don't care about anyone who records with her. She should have partnered with Johnny Mathis and Liza Minnelli. But now that ship has sailed. So I don't care about anyone else.
Her next or final album must be SOLO.

^^And sing some upbeat songs, kind of like Stoney End or even some classic upbeat songs.
Enough with the entire album filled with the all orchestra-laden emotional ballads. Barbra...have some fun and put a smile on your face.

R8 She partnered with Mathis 32 years ago with the beautiful duet on 'Back to Broadway'. Did you miss it ?
I read recently where she said her duet with Donna Summer was her favorite duet, as Summer really brought out the best in Streisand. Aside from Summer, her other favorite was Garland. She thought the duet with Kim Carnes sounded good (and she likes Carnes' voice), but once the recording was finished, she didn't like the duet.

Imagine choosing that garbage song with Summer over Garland. She’s a walking shanda.

Is Babs’ pussy dried up like a prune?

R11 On both duets (Summer and Garland) those women really made Streisand sing out and belt. I don't think she ever did it again with any duet partners (except Mathis).
