Barbra Streisand is allegedly making fun of the fact that Cher is dating a much younger guy.
An unnamed source told Globe that Streisand is very witchy, preachy, and judgmental. And Cher wasn’t able to escape the singer’s criticisms.
“Barbra is very judgmental. She thinks Cher should start acting her age and she’s been saying so to anyone that will listen. Cher is happy and maybe she’s even in love, but it makes her blood boil that her peers are judging her, especially her old nemesis Barbra,” the source said.
The source also claimed that Streisand thinks Cher’s relationship is weird and she’s also convinced that Cher is just dating a much younger guy to gain attention.
Streisand, on the other hand, has been with James Brolin for years. So, she’s also bragging about their successful marriage to Cher and their common friends.
“Barbra’s totally up on her high horse. It’s clear she wants to put Cher down,” the source said.
According to the source, Cher might have also decided to sell her property because Streisand lives close by.
“Barbra has this celebrity enclave tied up in her sleeve, so much that Cher doesn’t like to even run errands anymore. Malibu seems too small a place for these two egocentric divas. That’s likely one of the reasons why Cher wants to move,” the source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. It’s not true that Streisand is making fun of Cher’s relationship with her boyfriend.
There’s no reason for Streisand to make fun of Cher just because her boyfriend is not the same age as her. After all, a lot of people in the entertainment industry are dating someone else with a huge age gap.
So, criticizing Cher for her and her boyfriend’s age gap will just put a target on Streisand’s back.
It’s not also true that Cher is thinking about leaving Malibu because Streisand lives close by. Even if they are neighbors, Streisand doesn’t have any control over what happens in the neighborhood so Cher shouldn’t be scared of her.
It’s obvious that the tabloid is just trying to pit veteran singers against each other for click bait purposes. But there’s no indication that Streisand and Cher are at odds with each other in the first place.
