Barbra Streisand Can't Remember If She Had Sex With Warren Beatty
It's safe to say Barbra Streisand doesn't mind raining on someone else's parade. Over the weekend, the New Yorker published an interview with the Funny Girl star in which editor David Remnick pressed Streisand about an interesting tidbit in her 2023 memoir, My Name Is Barbra. 'Possibly the greatest line in the whole book, to my mind, is you say you can't remember if you slept with Warren Beatty,' Remnick said. 'Now, I don't think anyone has ever written that line in the history of sex, or Hollywood, or anything,' he added about the heartthrob. 'I know I slept in the bed with him, but I can't remember if we actually had penetration,' Streisand admitted. 'I swear to God, I can't. There are certain things I block out.' Despite Streisand's claim that she has no idea if she properly met Beatty's little Dick Tracy, it seems like the two have had plenty of time to clear up that detail being that Streisand also told the magazine they're 'still friends.' 'Every year on my birthday, he calls me and we have a wonderful talk about our lives, our children, and so forth,' the 'Don't Rain on my Parade' singer said. 'So we're still friends. I met him when I was fifteen years old, and he was twenty-one, I think.' In her memoir, The Way We Were star wrote about her first impression of Beatty, saying that he was 'tall with movie-star looks, and women were already falling at his feet,' per People. And if that sounds like a pretty accurate description of any f-boy, it likely explains why Streisand was so flippant toward Playboy in 1977 when the magazine asked her if she and Beatty were ever 'romantically linked.' 'I said blithely, 'One of my flings,'' Streisand wrote in her book of the Playboy interview, per the New York Post. 'I was just tossing off a reply, playing the role of a jaded woman of the world.'

Don't miss out on the headlines from Hook Ups & Break Ups. Followed categories will be added to My News. Barbra Streisand had a wild answer when pressed on whether she and her longtime pal Warren Beatty ever slept together during their rumoured fling in the '70s. The A Star Is Born actress and singer, 83, opened up about the NSFW matter during an interview with The New Yorker published recently, while discussing a similar anecdote she shared in her 2023 tell-all My Name Is Barbra. 'I know I slept in the bed with him, but I can't remember if we actually had penetration,' she claimed, per the New York Post. 'I swear to God, I can't. There are certain things I block out.' However, Streisand quickly moved away from the topic when the interviewer pressed her further about whether or not she ever slept with the Dick Tracy star, 88. 'But I know we're still friends,' she said, changing the subject. 'Every year on my birthday, he calls me and we have a wonderful talk about our lives, our children, and so forth.' 'So we're still friends,' Streisand added. 'I met him when I was fifteen years old, and he was twenty-one, I think.' In My Name Is Barbra, the star recalled first meeting Beatty at the Clinton Playhouse in Connecticut when she was 16 and he was 21. She described Beatty as 'tall with movie-star looks' and wrote that 'women were already falling at his feet.' Streisand was asked about her rumoured fling with Warren Beatty. Picture:for Fortune The pair have been friends for decades. Picture: Chris Delmas/AFP Streisand also wrote about an interview she gave Playboy in 1977 in which the reporter asked whether she was ever 'romantically linked' with the Bonnie and Clyde actor. 'I said blithely, 'One of my flings,'' she responded, according to her memoir. 'I was just tossing off a reply, playing the role of a jaded woman of the world.' Streisand shared details of her personal life in her memoir. Picture:for BSB Still, while Streisand and Beatty 'go back a long way,' she also admitted that there is 'some water under that bridge.' 'Recently, we were on the phone talking politics and who knows what else when he said, 'I remember why we broke up,'' Streisand wrote. 'I said, 'When were we together?'' After hanging up the phone and asking herself if she and Beatty ever slept together, Streisand admitted that they 'probably' did. 'I kind of remember. I guess I did,' she wrote. 'Probably once.' Whether they slept together or not, Streisand and Beatty have remained 'friends for life' since first meeting in Connecticut almost 70 years ago. They also each ended up with the loves of their lives, because Streisand went on to marry actor James Brolin, 84, in 1998, while Beatty married actress Annette Bening, 67, in 1992. Brolin recently opened up about the secret to his and the Way We Were singer's nearly 30-year marriage. 'The best investment we've ever made is our mattress,' he told the US Today show in April. 'And don't misunderstand me,' Brolin added. 'We're both lazy. We love to sleep late. We do a lot of our work on the phone, on paper, reading, right next to each other.'

Barbra Streisand still isn't sure if she had sex with Warren Beatty: 'I know I slept in the bed with him'
Barbra Streisand still can't recall if she ever had sex with Warren Beatty. She does, however, know that she at least shared a bed with him. And whether or not you believe her, no one is going to rain on her life is juicy… So juicy for Barbra Streisand that the chanteuse still cannot recall whether or not she slept with one of Hollywood's most infamous lotharios, Warren Beatty. Streisand first mentioned the gap in her memory in her 2023 memoir, My Name Is Barbra, but when asked about it again in a recent New Yorker interview, she doubled down. "I know I slept in the bed with him, but I can't remember if we actually had penetration," Streisand said. "I swear to God, I can't. There are certain things I block out." When New Yorker editor David Remnick attempted to call B.S. on Streisand, she insisted that she truly couldn't remember. "But I know we're still friends," she asserted. "Every year on my birthday, he calls me and we have a wonderful talk about our lives, our children, and so forth. So we're still friends. I met him when I was fifteen years old, and he was twenty-one, I think." In her memoir, Streisand first dropped the bombshell that any intimate time spent with Beatty was not memorable enough to stick with her. "Warren and I go back a long way (back to summer stock) and there's some water under that bridge," she wrote. "Recently, we were on the phone talking politics and who knows what else when he said, 'I remember why we broke up.' I said, 'When were we together?' Then I hung up and asked myself, Did I sleep with Warren? I kind of remember. I guess I did. Probably once." Entertainment Weekly has reached out to representatives for Beatty for comment. Beatty has been married to Annette Bening since 1992, while Streisand tied the knot with her current husband, James Brolin, back in 1998. However, Streisand and Beatty's coupling — or lack thereof — has apparently been a point of contention between them for some time. In Kathy Griffin's own 2016 memoir, the comedian commented on a conversation she allegedly overheard between the two friends at a party. "Warren, I'm not going to have this fight with you again. We nev-ah hooked up," Griffin recalled Streisand saying. "Noooo, Barbra, I think we did," Beatty purportedly said. "We were coming back from that little club in the Catskills." Though if Beatty's memory is correct, Streisand apparently didn't have the time of her life. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

Barbra Streisand Shares NSFW Detail About Fling with Longtime Pal Warren Beatty
Barbra Streisand is doubling down on a claim that she made in her 2023 memoir My Name Is Barbra about not remembering if she slept with her longtime friend Warren Beatty. In an interview with The New Yorker, published on Saturday June 14, the A Star Is Born actress, 83, once again opened up about her fling with the 88-year-old Dick Tracy actor — and what may or may not have actually happened between them. 'I know I slept in the bed with him, but I can't remember if we actually had penetration,' Streisand told the outlet. 'I swear to God, I can't. There are certain things I block out.' Not buying the music legend's account, the interviewer called 'bulls**t' on Streisand, adding that Beatty probably remembers what happened. 'No, that's right. I can't,' she replied. 'But I know we're still friends. Every year on my birthday, he calls me and we have a wonderful talk about our lives, our children, and so forth.' 'So, we're still friends,' she continued. 'I met him when I was fifteen years old, and he was twenty-one, I think.' According to People, Streisand details meeting Beatty in her memoir, explaining that they first crossed paths while working together at Clinton Playhouse in Connecticut. In the book, described the Bugsy star as 'tall with movie-star looks, and women were already falling at his feet.' The Funny Girl star also recalled being asked by Playboy in 1977 if she and Beatty had been 'romantically linked' to which she replied that he was 'one of my flings.' In 2010, author Peter Biskind estimated in his book, Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America, that Beatty — one of Hollywood's most infamous lotharios — had slept with close to 13,000 women throughout his life. Beatty cleared up the rumor in a 2016 interview with AARP, hinting that the number is far from accurate. 'Think about it, sleeping with 12,775 people,' he told the outlet. 'That would mean not just that there were multiple people a day, but that there was no repetition.' In 1992, Beatty wed actress Annette Bening. Streisand married Josh Brolin in 1998. 'I waited a long time to be married,' Beatty explained in the interview. 'When you don't get married until you're 54 … well, as Arthur Miller said, 'It comes with the territory.''
