Watched the show last night and the hour just flew by.
Ross seemed genuinely in awe of his guest and admitted to being nervous, which is probably a first.
His extensive knowledge of films helped, and BS appreciated his candour in revealing that he didn’t actually like one of her films!
BS still looks a million dollars (which may well have been not far short of what she spent on her outfit, makeup and entourage), but who cares – she’s still the female equivalent to Frank Sinatra – ageless and evergreen.
There’s a passage from Parkinson’s autobio that explains he never interviewed Barbra because her demands were too much and it took many years of negotiation before that Madonna interview happened.
Well will be interesting to see how this interviews works out,Streisand likes to be in control of everything…….jonathan needs good luck.
As a huge Barbra fan I so hope we get to see this here in Australia, I can’t wait to get the new CD, the several tracks I have heard so far are unbelievable
Hope we get to see it here. Her interview on In the Actors Studio was one of the most entertaining I have seen.
Hey David…. “Hello, Gorgeous” !!!… thank you for putting this up (i wouldn’t have known otherwise). Huge Babs fan for a very long time and am happy to see her do this. Hopefully channel 7 (?) will screen this soon rather than later.
Wow.
Barbra is notoriously difficult to get an interview with. Especially, something that will go relatively unedited.
In past interviews with Barbara Walters she’s apparently been very hands-on with editing and the way she looks. I doubt she’ll have the same control with this.
