If we ever see Jennifer Lopez win an Oscar (which most likely won't happen), it will be thanks to the woman who knows it best.

Once upon a time Jennifer Lopez was having a hard time figuring out what movie roles she should take on. Since she couldn't make up her mind, she turned to the legendary star of showbiz - Barbra Streisand.

Barbra Streisand isn't about to take any chance of having her life put on the line while she's embarking on a nationwide tour.

The Oscar-winning actress reportedly wants to make sure she's 101% safe and has taken necessary precautions to protect herself on stage.

Don't get on a diva's bad side - or else. Many fans had long been anticipating Barbra Streisand's biggest comeback and latest nationwide tour, but many concert goers were displeased with the icon's rambunctious ways at her recent New York City show.

The music legend recently made her grand appearance on stage for a sold out crowd at Madison Square Garden. Some fans who paid up to $2,000 to attend the extravagant show were thrilled to see their legend perform some of her hit songs. It was as if she had never left the stage.

Barbra Streisand can rest assured that her father would have stayed longer if he could. In a bizarre twist of events, the music icon's father has allegedly apologized - from beyond the grave - to her for dying when she was young.

The "Meet The Fockers" star claims she made contact with her father during a recent trip to visit a medium her brother had recommended.

Many Barbra Streisand fans aren't quite so happy and excited about seeing their music icon in concert right now-that is, if they even get a chance to. Ticketmaster revealed that thousands of tickets for the singer's shows in New York, Las Vegas, and other locations were purchased on the company's website using stolen credit cards, thus forcing Ticketmaster to make the tickets no longer valid.

Many fans who purchased their tickets through Internet resale websites ended up caught in a mess they can't get out of. Now these fans are merely crap out of luck.

Barbra Streisand has lashed out at the writer of her new biographyChristopher Anderson incited the wrath of the singer with the recently published Barbra: The Way She Is. The star claims none of her close friends or co-workers were asked to contribute to the book and she has branded it a "mean-spirited mythology masquerading as biography."

Streisand fumed to America's CNN: "Who is the person described in this book?From what has been told to me, certainly not anyone I know. This stereotypicimage bears little resemblance to me or anything about me."
