STREISAND HITS A SOUR NOTE WITH TOP DEMS
Convention honchos tell Babs to hit the road
barbra streisand
Furious over Barbra Streisand's outrageous demands after they asked her to speak at the Democratic National Convention, organizers rebelled and yelled: "Streisand . . . STAY HOME!" Snarled one insider: "She was a nightmare!" La Streisand delivered a typewritten list of demands that blah-blah-ed on for pages about makeup artists . . . hairdressers . . . a fleet of limos . . . hotel suites for the star's entourage and a small army of private bodyguards . . . etc. In addition, say sources, she ordered Dems to hire extra guards for her protection and (here's my favorite!) even dictated strict security demands to the FBI! Topping it all off, party "loyalist" Streisand refused to pony up a penny toward the staggering bill -- insisting that the tab be paid by campaign contributions from ordinary Americans! Seething party bosses told the singer through clenched teeth: "Thanks . . . but no thanks!" Now Streisand's fibbing to pals that she couldn't attend the convention because she's working on "Meet the Fockers" -- but sources say her scenes were shot long before the opening gavel banged!
LOL! Isn't The Nose the one who insists on rose petals in her toilet?
