A former Saturday Night Live star has revealed that legendary singer and actress Barbra Streisand once attempted to confront her over an impersonation that apparently didn’t sit well. The revelation has sparked curiosity among fans of both comedy and Hollywood icons, shedding light on how celebrities react to being portrayed in the media.
The comedian, known for her sharp impressions and ability to capture the essence of well-known figures, recalled the moment Streisand allegedly sought her out. According to the former SNL cast member, the iconic singer was less than pleased with how she was portrayed on the show and made an effort to address it directly. While the confrontation never actually took place, the mere thought of Streisand approaching her left a lasting impression.
Throughout SNL’s history, celebrity impersonations have been a cornerstone of the show’s comedy, with stars either embracing or reacting strongly to how they are depicted. Streisand, known for her powerful voice and commanding presence, has been a frequent subject of impressions over the years, but few have publicly shared her direct reaction.
The former SNL star’s revelation has reignited discussions about how public figures handle satire and comedy. Some celebrities take parodies in stride, while others push back when they feel misrepresented. Fans have been debating whether the portrayal was meant to be flattering or if it crossed a line, with opinions divided on whether Streisand had a reason to be upset.
Despite the attempted confrontation, the SNL alum stands by her work, noting that impressions are meant to be humorous rather than malicious. Meanwhile, Streisand has not commented on the story, leaving many to wonder how she truly felt about the impression that almost led to a face-to-face discussion.
