Barbra drops the F-bomb

Imaginary scenario: Husband/boyfriend takes wife/girlfriend to the concert even though he isn't too crazy about Barbra or isn't familiar with her views. Maybe he even has a few drinks at the bar before the concert. Barbra starts her anti-Bush skit. (Good for her!) Boyfriend /husband supports Bush. Heckling ensues. (BTW the article doesn't say she was booed. It mentions one solitary heckler. I pity the fool who would boo Barbra when surrounded by her fans. What would follow would not be pretty to watch.)

Uh Huh. :rolleyes:

Well, let's see...

She's never lived in a trailer, she's not a whore and has been a major star since 1962.

Her concerts, though incredibly over- priced, sell out within hours, no matter
how many 'farewell tours' she produces.

We should ALL be such 'has-beens'.

You're now my favorite jubber!(*8*) (!) (!) (!)
 
I read about this on Yahoo. Though I agree that people aren't there for skits, they are there to see an icon perform her music, I think she can say what she wants. I never thought her to be the type to say "fuck" at a concert - but that doesn't mean she can't. No reason for Dixie Chicks Part Deux.
 
Yelling "FUCK!" in a crowded auditorium is not "What Becomes A Legend Most..."

As for being "trailer trash," she's supposed to have made a porno film in 1959... I've seen it on video, myself...

Here's a sampling:

Uh?

So why should anyone be so surprised that she knows how to swear (in particular the "F" word). So what's the big deal?

I would actually have thought it was quite in keeping with the image...

Streisand fans tell the star to shut up and sing

By Belinda Goldsmith

Some of Barbra Streisand's fans have some advice for the diva as she makes a rare U.S. tour -- shut up and sing.

Streisand, 64, an ardent Democrat, has used the opportunity of her first U.S. tour in 12 years to snipe at President George W. Bush, employing a Bush impersonator to sing a duet with her while blasting the administration's policies.

Not all members of her audience, who paid up to $250 for a ticket, have appreciated her politics. During a performance at New York's Madison Square Garden this week, one concertgoer yelled out, asking if the concert was a fundraiser. Streisand replied: "Shut the f--- up!"

Streisand apologized to the audience of about 20,000 people for losing her temper, but her outburst and inclusion of her political views in her show alienated some fans who have written to newspapers and Web sites to rebuke her.

One fan, Margaret Ferrante, said she was outraged to hear Streisand ridicule an audience member and any Republicans in the audience.

"She turned a display of her phenomenal musical talent into a profanity-laden attack on people who paid good money to see her," Ferrante wrote the New York Daily News on Thursday.

"I love her voice but could not in good conscience ever pay to see her perform again."

Another fan, John Culver, who attended the concert on the night of the heckler, said the man had been bothering the singer all night -- but slammed her anti-Bush skit.

"Don't bite the hand that buys your record, Barbra. We all know your politics. Shut up and sing!" Culver wrote to the Daily News.

Dan Johancsik wrote to the Orange County Register in California to say: "Subjecting loyal fans to one's own sour grapes politics is flat-out immature."

Columnist Liz Smith in the New York Post praised Streisand's show -- but blasted the singer for making her concert so political.

"She apologized for losing her temper, and spoke of unity. But it is the very nature of her pointless parody that divides," wrote Smith.

A spokesman for Streisand said she had no further comment about the incident and no plans to change her show following the complaints. "It was just something that happened. There are a lot of people who are supportive of how she handled this," he told Reuters.

Streisand, who is America's biggest-selling female recording artist of all time with 71 million albums sold, is a well-known opponent of Bush, with several entries on her Web site (http://www.barbrastreisand.com) attacking the president and his policies.

$250 ?????? :eek:

Politics aside, that article must be joking, or at the very least ill-informed.

Floor seats down here in FL. would have run ya at least *twice* that, and
that's given the slim chance you could actually get them thru 'TicketBastard'.

It's not uncommon for the primo seats to go for $1,200 or more a piece.
 
First let me say up-front that I like Barbra!

................BUT, I will NOT pay all that good money to go see her sing when she ends up having a political skit on President Bush!!!

I don't want anyone to force-feed me their politics.........NO one!

......and she went on and on about it too!!!

No wonder the crowd got rowdy!

**I hear she's receiving BAD press from even her supporters on her show in NY!

It got so bad that they were giving away tickets so that the entire theatre was filled up.............hint, hint!(*8*) (*8*) :kiss: :kiss:

I dunno, Roger, I can kinda see both sides here.

We are living in a very dangerous time right now in our country, being
run by an administration that is manufacturing a war that is arguably far more
dangerous than Vietnam or Korea. (This is the Middle East, after all) with possible
global implications that most of us don't want to deal with...

If I were Babs and had the public's ear for an evening, I might find the temptation to do exactly what she has chosen to do as well.

Granted, it's probably inappropriate, but Hell, she's only human and we're
only talking about 5 percent of the concert's running time.

I understand the 'just shut up and sing' viewpoint, but it's something she feels very strongly about, and goodness knows she's never been known as
one who plays by the rules.
 
I've always been a fan of Barbra. I like her singing, acting and directing. I even share her political sense.
But I recall when Richard Gere made remarks about the terrible plight of Tibetans and was almost booed off the Oscar stage.
So many Americans are apathetic about what happens here & abroad (evidenced in our voting numbers) it probably isn't a wise career move to bring serious issue to audience who expect to be entertained.
 
Streisand stopped on her current tour in the Twin Cities last night, and let me tell you boys, she was like BUTTER!!!! Give her credit, she's still the greatest voice of our generation, and until you've seen and heard her LIVE IN CONCERT, you can't fully appreciate her. So she's political and outspoken for what she believes in, MORE POWER TO HER! She was polished and poised, elegant and funny, sexy and stunning, but beyond everything there's that VOICE. In the words of Liz Smith, "She was, is, and will always be the real deal." Having seen her current tour, I couldn't have said it better, if you get the chance, don't miss her, she's worth every cent.
 
I have the feeling that the heckler was a staged thing. The same thing happened at her concert in Columbus Ohio.
 
She said last night that it was a "fan" who followed her, he did the same thing in Philadelphia where the tour began, and she didn't stop him, but then when he followed her to NYC and started in on her again, she said she'd had it, and lost her temper. In Minneapolis last night, she noticed a woman talking on her cell phone and told her in the middle of singing a song, "put that away", she also said, "well you can take the girl out of Brooklyn, but you can't take the Brooklyn out of the girl." LOL Long live BABS, she speaks her mind, and sings her heart out.
 
THAT IS A RIOT!!!! Thanks so much for the audio mix and the original you tube incident, what a world of modern technology we live in.

YOU TELL HIM BABS!

" She was, is and always will be, the real deal" Liz Smith

Concertgoer pelts Babs with beverage

Miami Herald Staff Report

Barbra Streisand's politics didn't find a wholly agreeable crowd during her Monday concert at the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise.

As Babs traded political barbs with a George W. Bush imitator, a fan of the songstress who apparently disagreed with her politics pelted her with a beverage. And as her anti-GOP riff ended, another man in the crowd found himself being escorted out of the center as he shouted at Streisand.

Streisand shrugged both incidents off, saying some people would do better to buy her records than come to her shows.

A similar scenario unfolded during Streisand's concert earlier this month at Madison Square Garden in New York, during which the singer used the F-word in shouting down a heckler.
