'81, No Way!’: Barbra Streisand Stuns Fans With Her ‘Marvelous’ Look Posing in a Black Dress Near Her Husband

Barbra Streisand shared a video of her and her husband celebrating the new Barbra Streisand Center at UCLA. The actress is now 81 years old but still celebrating milestones in her career. However, her fans do not think she looks a day over 81.

Barbra Streisand celebrated a significant milestone. The long-time actress and singer announced on Instagram that she would be honored with a Barbra Streisand Center at UCLA, which would study Truth in the Public Sphere.

Streisand commemorated the moment with a video from the inaugural featuring her husband, James Brolin, who was seen helping her walk up the stairs.

Streisand is 81 years old but does not look a day over it, and fans could not believe how young the actress still looked. "You look younger, not older! Keep doing what you are doing! You look marvelous," remarked a fan.

For most, it was unbelievable that Streisand was 81. "81, no way! 61, maybe." gushed a fan. People also loved how Streisand and her husband looked. "You and James look amazing," added another fan.

Many more people described the long-time couple as "dreamy" and continued to gush over how gorgeous they looked. But in the midst of all the positivity, Streisand also received criticism about her nose. "What happened to her nose?" commented a fan.

However, this was not the first time that Streisand received mean comments about her nose, but she has built her successful career by staying true to herself.

Barbra Streisand on becoming a star

From the beginning of her career, Streisand revealed that she was met with much negativity about her looks. People said she had a "beak nose" and would not make it in Hollywood.

Not only did outside voices try to deter her from her goal of being a big star, but the singer's mother also advised Streisand to find a more stable job as a secretary.

However, despite the doubt surrounding her career choices, Streisand knew she wanted to be an actress. She started singing in a nightclub before she moved on to be on Broadway and eventually broke out to be a movie star.

In one interview with Oprah Winfrey, Streisand was asked if she had thought of getting her nose worked on or trying to enhance her physical features.

However, the singer has always been scared to go under the knife, so much so that she has not considered piercing her ears. Winfrey agreed with her and said she was glad she did not try to change herself because of people's opinions.

Although she resisted getting work done on her face, the singer only fully realized her beauty when the makeup artist, Bob Schulenberg, made her aware of her natural beauty. She had never been aware of her beautiful features until he highlighted them.

Streisand did not change much, she said people asked her to change her name, but she only removed an "a" to make it shorter, but her face and body stayed the same. She was not willing to change her nose because it was part of her heritage.

The 81-year-old shows no signs of stopping either; she is reportedly set to release a memoir titled "My Name is Barbra," along with two albums.

The Secret Behind Barbra Streisand and James Brolin's long marriage

Brolin was asked how he kept his marriage going for so long, and he only had one piece of advice: therapy. He said having a third party to help resolve issues was important.

As for Streisand, she did not even think she would go on a second date with Brolin because he was different from what she had imagined. She even told him that his hairstyle was messed up. But 25 years later, the couple still has a strong relationship.
