BABS STALKED?
NY Post ^ | 10-11-06 | Richard Johnson

Posted on 10/11/2006 4:56:49 AM PDT by veronica

THE heckler at Barbra Streisand's MSG concert Monday night may have been a right-wing plant who's taunted her before, her publicist says. "There's something a little weird about it," said Ken Sunshine, noting there was a similar-sounding shouter at the diva's Philadelphia show last week.

At the Garden, the heckler taunted, "What is this, a fund-raiser?" when she made fun of President Bush. Meanwhile, Audience Extras, a firm that provides members with free tickets to undersold shows, was giving out ducats to Babs' show tonight. "They did a last-minute release of some scattered seats in the upper levels," said tour publicist Fran Curtis.

...may have been a right-wing plant...

Or may NOT have been a right wing plant, simply some nut. But, nooooo, we just can't pass up an opportunity like this to discredit the right.

The hag cant admit that she might have left out her Bush bashing so she blames the bad publicity on a stalker. Meanwhile her show isnt selling out so she has to give away seats. Its over Babs . Anyone who has good sense doesnt want to see you tired show. Especially not ewith your tired politics in it.

Looks like she needed a few more people to fill up the auditorium. Not the luckiest people in the world.

Do you think she wishes things were the way they were?

If it is a right-wing plant (hardy-har-har) then he is really taking one for the team; seeing Babs with no bra has gotta be the modern-day version of looking at Medusa. Hats off to you dude!

Me thinks "there's something a little weird about" Mr. Sunshine.




Kenneth Mark Sunshine (12 March 1948 - ) grew up in Long Island and is a graduate of Cornell University. He started working for ASCAP. He then moved on to politics, serving as chief-of-staff for David Dinkins during his time as mayor of New York. After Dinkins lost to Rudolph W. Giuliani, Sunshine started a public relations firm where he represented Barbra Streisand.

At $700 per ticket?

I wouldn't pay $5.00 to go see Babs crooning.

I lost count. Does Babs or Cher have the most 'farewell tours' now?
