The liberal battle ax is hanging up her blade.
If you want to see Barbra Streisand sing, watch her upcoming special because you won’t see her onstage again.
And she’s not just saying it to get you to watch “Barbra: The Music … The Mem’ries … The Magic!” when it debuts on the streaming service this Wednesday: Streisand, who didn’t tour for 27 years after forgetting the words at a show in 1967, said performing live concerts are too nerve-racking for her to consider doing them again.
“No I would never do another show. It’s exhausting,” the iconic entertainer said.
“I’m not ever going to sit down and plan another show like I had to do with this one,” she said of the new special, recorded during her tour stop in Miami last year.
You know what worries me about what children are hearing, what our next generation is hearing and seeing, you know, what upsets me these days is, “Are they seeing that it’s OK to lie, or to brag about sexual assault? That’s just locker room talk.” Is it right to see the head of the government in the sense never apologizing or retaliating? Is it OK to try to silence people in the press when they don’t agree with you? To lack kindness and humility? It’s not so right.
AP: How are you doing since your dog died this year?
Streisand: She was always with me; the last 14 years she went everywhere I went. She was at every performance. It was like losing a child. It was kind of awful.
