Barbra Streisand is looking for fun. “I haven’t had much fun in my life, to tell you the truth,” she told the BBC. “And I want to have more fun.”
I find this unnerving. She is Barbra Streisand – surely she could just click her fingers and have fun brought to her, like a Roman emperor? She cloned her dog, twice! She created her own historical shopping mall (which anyone who knows York Castle Museum’s Victorian street recreation will find uncannily familiar, although hers has more haunted dolls)! Plus, if the video I just watched is accurate, she even has a “room dedicated to napping”, which – forget being an Egot – is the pinnacle of achievement. If she isn’t having fun, what hope is there for anyone else?
