Babs, Brolin pay for tix? 'Impossible'
NY Daily News ^ | 05/16/06 | Lloyd Grove

when James Brolin and Barbra Streisand got a free slide into their neighborhood theater, another Malibu denizen, Jennifer Grossman, was outraged.

Mega-diva Barbra Streisand and television actor James Brolin might be millionaires many times over, but don't expect them to pay $20 for a pair of movie tickets.

Arriving at the Mann Agoura Hills 8 near their Malibu estate on Friday night — apparently to see "Mission: Impossible III" — the 64-year-old singer-actress and her 65-year-old hubby wheedled their way into free seats by schmoozing the teenager in charge.

Brolin? Didn't he play Peewee Herman once?

(Babs is a notorious tightwad. Way to fight the stereotype, Babs.)

Commentary from the celebrity gossip site www.wwtdd.com:

Although clearly worth millions, Barbra Streisand and husband James Brolin can't be bothered to pay for a night at the movies like everyone else, so when they arrived at the Mann Agoura Hills 8 near their Malibu mansion Friday night to see 'Mission: Impossible III', the couple asked to get in for free. When the teenage manager arrived, Barbara made her demands clear and was obliged. She was overhead telling the teen:

"We asked especially for you, we haven't seen you in a while."

Good luck finding someone more despicable than Barbara Streisand, who would rather stand around for ten minutes waiting to make the 17 year old in the vest and bowtie uncomfortable because she's too good to hand over 20 dollars like the other 40 people in line. Meanwhile, she thinks nothing of buying 100,000 dollar cars and moisturizer made from bald eagles. And based on what, because she was popular 40 years ago? I'd rather watch x-rays of a time bomb in my anus than anything she was ever in.

As I have said before, Dems-libs have no shame. Users, all of them. 'I used to be important so let me in for free'. BARF!!!

That condescending attitude is one reason why much of America hates the Hollywood Left.
