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

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.

Babs is repped by Barry Manilow's pre-plastic surgery twin brother?

A right-wing plant in the audience? But of course, Babs!... Paranoia and the Left go together like mash potatoes and gravy.

BABS STALKED?

In her dreams! The closest this NAG HAG can get to a stalker is Jim Brolin walking ten paces behind her!

What a lunatic. Babs starts boring the audience with her ignorance regarding politics and Kenny claims she is SO politically important that a conspiracy was initiated.

Ken speaketh: "These paparazzi are probably lying because they lie about everything. These accusations are the height of absurdity. These are people who jump out of trees and hide in bathroom stalls.”


Didn't Lawrence O'Donnell say the same thing about the Swifties?

Was it Ted Nugent?

If not, I want written proof that every FReeper was somewhere else that night, on my desk, by 9:00 this morning.

(Like any Republican or FReeper is going to a Babs concert!)

This only publicity Babs is able to muster; victim of Right wing heckler.. Pity because she used to be a great singer. What is she now? Old, rich and dumb.

The morning news show on Tampa Bay Channel 13 this morning had a piece on a woman who shelled out over $1500 to go see Babs. Woman had a stash of Bab records that was unbelievable! Thought it would be fun to go and take her grandaughter with her.

The woman stated that she was shocked when in the middle of the show, Babs brought out some Bush-double and started ridiculing him. That is when the heckler made his remark, which she herself was wondering, "What is this? Why can't you just sing? That's what we paid for."

Babs told the "heckler" ( and I kind of doubt if it was really a heckler after seeing this interview) "Why don't you just shut up?"

And then in total frustration, because the ridiculing of the Bush-double wasn't going all that well with the audience, "Why don't you just shut the f### up."

The woman said she took her granddaughter (14 I think she said the girl was) and left along with several others from all over the theater.

>Meanwhile her show isnt selling out so she has to give away seats. <

No kidding. This Democrat (aren't they supposed to be for "the little people"??) expected people to fork over $300.00 and up for tickets!

Babs forgot that her audience is a bit, ahem, older. Her audience remembers when $18.00 was an astronomical sum for a concert ticket.

Some people cannot function without a perceived enemy against which to rail. Lefties/liberals in particular have that disease. Angry people.

Well, considering what she charges for her concerts, I'm glad there is a way for the "little people" (whom of course the Democrats claim to represent) to see her if they so choose.

Perhaps, if it's a one legged guy named Ahab.

Ken Sunshine - same media consultant who works for the Dixie Chicks...

Thanks for update here . . mentioned yesterday how a friend of mine heard that it was a plant on some network news. . .told her not to believe it; that it was 'Barbras' PR taking care of business. . .

No doubt, MSM more than happy to accomodate the story; despite their knowing what a total crock this is.

As for Bab's Magical Political Singing Tour' (scheduled pre-Election. . ) am hoping that any Repub who made the mistake of buying a ticket; or planning to. . .will correct their error.
