Shirley is still the best!

So, I don't know if anything could have made me happier than Dame Shirley Bassey performing at the Oscars. Not only did she sound great, but she looked great and she's 76 YEARS OLD!!! UM....She's almost 80!!! I thought Adele and Barbra did a great job at the Oscars, but Shirley stole the show for me. I also LOVE how tickled she is by the standing ovation at the end. She is just a miracle. CONGRATS! THE DAME REIGNS!

Previously unreleased recording of Babs




Hello, my gorgeous, Barbra loving fans! A previously unreleased recording of La Streisand singing "Home," from The Wiz will be included on Barbra's new album of previously unreleased material. Here is a link to the track. In my opinion it's lovely, but I usually go for the Laurie Beechman version for a white girl rendition.

Happy 70th Barbra!


Hello, gorgeous. It's Barbra Streisand's birthday!!! 70 years young! The legend celebrated her birthday in Malibu with close friends like John Travolta, Steven Speilburg, etc. Turning 70 isn't holding her back from continuing her fabulous career. A movie version of Gypsy is in the works and Babs is set to star as the mother to end all mothers: Mama Rose. We have a feeling the songs were recorded at least a decade ago, so I'm sure Babs will sound fabulous, but it does seem sort of a stretch for a 70 year old to play a 45 year old...just saying...I'm available. ANYWAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY GORGEOUS!
