Beyonce Didn't Have Time to Finish Barbra Streisand Duet
Barbra Streisand's new album of duets only includes male singers, but it wasn't a conscious effort to exclude females.
"Everyone we asked was...busy," Streisand said. The performer almost scored one major diva: Beyonce.
"She had her people try to do a track of one of the songs from my movie, 'A Star is Born,' and it just, we didn't have the time to finish it, to get it right," she said. "We had to release the album. Maybe someday we'll do a duet because she's so great."
"Partners," released Tuesday, features Billy Joel, Stevie Wonder, John Mayer, John Legend and Babyface, who produced the album.
