Babs And Bush Share A Kiss
Filed under: Politik > Barbra Streisand > Barack Obama > Awardz
As we mentioned a few months ago, Barbra Streisand was chosen as a recipient for the prestigious Kennedy Center Honors. The awards recognize individuals who helped "define American culture through the performing arts."
And, this weekend Babs, a huge Barack Obama supporter, attended the A-list awards ceremony, where she was greeted by her nemesis, President Bush. So it was nothing short of funny when at the ceremony she received an awkward kiss from Bush. But, hey, at least she was polite enough to kiss back!
Though she did say "Art transcends politics this weekend," adding that it would have been "lovely" if she received the award while Barack was in office.
Among those also receiving awards this weekend were Morgan Freeman and country singer George Jones.
As for Babs and Bush's kiss, it was caught on tape and later replayed on video at a Kennedy Center gala, which the crowd couldn't help but laugh at.
Opening the tribute to Streisand was Queen Latifah who said Babs "threw out the rule book" to form her own career. "She took to the stage like butter on a bagel."
Other musicians paid tribute to Babs by singing her old songs, such as Beyonce, who sang The Way We Were. Even Ne-Yo was there and sang Babs' hit from 1965, Lover, Come Back to Me, along with four male dancers.
Ne-Yo added, "Barbra Streisand is the epitome of emotion in music. You feel every word, that's something that artists in my day and age don't really pay attention to." Why he was there, we're not sure, but he was definitely coached nicely on what to say.

Barbra Streisand is the epitome of ugly. Look at that face, if you can bear it. What a dog. (My apologies to all of the canines)
She will do anything for attention. After all the vicious things she said about Bush, she accepts this award like a hungry Jew eating a pork chop. No pun intended.

You're a delusional freak. Say what what you want.
I can't believe they're going to honor that pedophile Who guitarist. He got off scott free a couple of years ago for having kiddie porn on his computer by saying he was doing research for a book………..what a crock of……………….and the book was never written nor has any publisher confirmed his claim. How sad and what a huge shame for Kennedy Center Honors.
Morgarn Freem?? A typo is one thing, but wtf?
Did that big ugly guy in the back get caught with kiddie porn? He's creepy!
Pete Townshend wants a kiss too.
Re: _Alice_ – don't even listen to her… this is a woman who apparently is old enough to have kids yet spends her days calling people "fucktards" and posting twenty times on the same posts… and it seems her only friends are people online… honestly, ignore it and just remember that you're better than her!!!
Show some class - spell Morgan Freeman's name correctly PLEASE
The woman(?) sitting next to Morgan Freeman looks so absolutely delighted to be there! Gee whiz, at least pretend to care!
I was soo expecting this from you perez but seriously you should start changing your ways. You did not mention anything about the 2 other people that are in the picture WHO have helped "define American culture through the performing arts."
Roger Daltrey & Pete Townshend from THE WHO. Shame on you perez.
Only a numb-nuts little girl wannabe like Mario would totally ignore Roger Daltry and Pete Townshend standing behind his gay-icon in this pic.
Mario only listens to pre-teen bubble-gum music. No fucking taste.
Love it!!! I wonder if she thank Bush for keeping the US safe from a terrorist attack since 9/11.
Shut up Who fans we know you think you look cool to mention those degenerates and they were a great band but Babs is the greatest talent and star since well Judy Garland. She's a living legend and let's face it her kissing George Bush is hilarious and far more newsworthy than some washed up rockers. Barbra Stresiand people love her and hate her but you can't deny her astounding talent. The woman can do anything! And give her props for being classy in the presence of her biggest enemy! Go Babs! You ARE the greatest star!
Will you study the body language of Barbara (I don't like to write Barbra) and Morgan, there is chemistry there. I hope her husband was looking the other way.
She wasn't kissing him, she was putting a curse on him. A curse that he constantly recalls every stinking decision he has made to the detriment of the country and wake up screaming every night for the rest of his life.
The freakin Who is in this photo, what not even a mention!
Re: jas781 – Don't worry - they had THE ROCKINEST Tribute of all - Dave Grohl, Chris Cornell, Joss Stone… It was awesome! Don't worry - Babs' Tribute was great too, but, you know, Beyonce just doesn't rock like the Foo Fighters.
