Barbra Streisand: The ‘Funny Girl’ Returns

After a short stint of recent sold-out shows, Streisand returns to starring-role status in “The Guilt Trip” alongside goofball Seth Rogen – for real: Babs with the “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” actor – as a mother-son duo that goes road-tripping together and gets into all sorts of shenanigans. If it weren’t for director Anne Fletcher (“The Proposal”), who would only do the film with Babs, there’d be no movie – and, worse, no Barbra.
Streisand, along with Rogen and Fletcher, sat down to chat about the reason she finally gave in (thank her own gay son for that), what she thinks of being a gay icon and how she’s managed to stay successful for nearly six decades.
