STREISAND HITS A SOUR NOTE WITH TOP DEMS (Convention honchos tell Babs to hit the road)
National Enquirer ^ | 8/9/04

Posted on 08/09/2004 8:50:25 AM PDT by truthandlife

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!

I know it is the National Enquirer but we have not heard from her much lately so there might be something to this.

Having been subjected to the previews of this upcoming turkey during a recent outing at the movies, Barbra is one Focker I could care less to meet.

Whoever leaked this leaked it as a message to Barbra to KEEP YOUR MOUTH CLOSED DURING THE ELECTION SEASON.

Isn't this movie a remake of Shrek II?

This is the problem with Hollywood getting involved in the elections. These plastic obscenely rich people have no concept of reality. I hope she becomes a Dem nightmare.

I enjoyed "Meet the Parents," and was looking forward to the sequel....now, DANG...unfortunately, with Babs in it I will not allow myself to see it.

If this is true, I wonder who the honcho was who told her to stay home? Inquiring minds want to know!

Sorry..............someone had to do it!
