On Thursday, Barbra Streisand sang at Sandy Gallin’s birthday party in New York at her pal Donna Karan’s apartment. While she was in Manhattan, Barbra also promoted her new coffee table book “My Passion For Design.” Barbra and her husband of 12 years, James Brolin, returned to the West Coast for the weekend and were photographed leaving a Memorial Day party in Malibu.
This reminds us of a funny story about Barbra and her best friend Donna Karan. In the early 90’s, Barbra was in England and while shopping she noticed a pair of $60 tights by Donna Karan at Harvey Nichols that she just HAD to have right away. But she had no intention of paying retail. She called Donna and asked her to rush her the tights (in exactly the right color and size) to her overnight. Donna had to LOCATE the right tights in a store and went to all kinds of trouble to get them shipped immediately free of charge to Barbra. Now THAT’s a friend.

That’s called good endoresment as well. Barbara should have been paid, too. I mean, if anybody photographed her in those pants.
Look at Brolin. What a lucky guy.
Wonder if she’s ever told that guy to color his hair ? That way she can tell everybody she’s dating a younger man.
Course, if he did that he might catch the eye of a younger lady and well. Barbara sure wouldn’t like that.
Rich people r the stingiest people!!!
“That’s a friend”?? Well yes, Donna proved she is a good friend but it’s not a very good friend on Barbara’s part. Who would ask their friend to go through trouble and overnight something at their expense when you could have just bought it in the store probably for cheaper?
Barbra calls all the shots in every phase of her life. That’s why it’s surprising that she hasn’t ordered James to shave off all that facial hair and get a subtle hair dye job, where some of the white would show thru to not be so obvious. He looks like her pappy and I think she is 2 years older, not sure.
I think he looks GREAT and has a lovely full head of hair still. SHE needs a bra that WORKS, her boobs are near her waist, and the jeans make her legs look like toothpicks.
She should be ashamed of herself for being such a cheapskate and expecting to get things for free. I mean, that’s how her friend makes money, by selling clothes she designs! Rich people epecting things for free when they can well afford them is a disgusting practise!
I love these two. Of course she rules the roost, but if he loves it, I like it! He’s not going anywhere, and he knows that he WILL NOT get any of her money.
Does she look a bit tipsy?
Donna when you have friends like that who needs friends.
She sounds like one of the biggest bitches on the planet, bar none. He is still gorgeous and could do so much better than to be harped to death 24/7.
I think they are very much in love -and LOOK it! It’s nice to see that people of their moderate ages can and do accept each other as they are and don’t try to bend their mates into something or someone else, impossible to acheive. They both look great and look great together, altho, like I said above, she needs a much better bra, her boobs are far too close to her waistline!
When I was a little kid in the 70’s I thought James Brolin was the coolist guy. Then I saw him in The Car. He was like John Wayne. Now he holds Barbara’s purse! Sheeesh!!!
Brolin looks genuinely happy….and that’s all that matters. He’s still a hunk and it’s nice that he and Barbra are the same age.
………the “golden retriever”?
I met someone who worked on the post production of Yentl. He said when Babs watched a cut of the flick, the color was all wrong. She flew into a tizzy cursing up a storm leaving the crew there intimidated and aghast. Shortly thereafter she calmed down, came back, sat down in front of them, pulled out some grass, smoked it, and bought everyone lunch and ate with them!! So, I guess the old girl, while perhaps a little edgy under pressure, does have a heart and is not the terrible monster depicted by many!!

For a while she was a chub, but seems like she’s dropped a few pounds.
As everyone knows, Barbra is a very eccentric character, full of dos and don’ts and wills and won’ts. She is lucky to find a laid back man who apparently understands her and takes it with a smile. He is lucky to find a multi-multi-millionaire to keep him in the lifestyles of the rich and famous. Guess they’re made for each other.
She just one of your everyday celeb liberal socialist. Needs a crane for those boobs.
Really taking a close look at her – she like needs a serious make over… I mean, look at those pants and the cuffs at the bottom. You’d think she’d be wearing some leather pants and look at that hair. I yi yi… Brolin probably wishes she’d go to a hair salon and get it cut or get some soft curls.
Bra… more like a boob job, something that really makes her stand out in a crowd of other women. I mean, you can bet Brolin is looking at other ladies who are the same age and have gotten their breast augmented. Makes a huge difference.
To those of you who have nothing to do but mock Barbra: GO GET A LIFE! She looks just fine-and so does James. Isn’t she allowed to chill out and not be glamorous 24/7? They seem genuinely happy and God bless them. I just wish she had more time to sing and act. Oh well, we have the book to look forward to.
she looks crippled.
“Now that’s a friend?” I guess so, but what is wrong with this multi-talented, multi-millionare that makes her so cheap? I just don’t understand it! Is it because she CAN get away with it?
