Barbra Streisand

My friend Richard has just paid £500 to see Barbara Streisand when she comes to the UK. Apparently she's sold out and he could easily sell it for twice that - which he won't. I really don't get why people love her so much and how's she's able to command such ludicrously high ticket prices.

A few years ago his flat was broken into. The burglars stole all his cds - but left behind the Barbra Streisand ones, which weirdly made him really pissed off.

I guess not everyone loves her.
