Barbra Streisand showed a posse of hot young talent how it's done Wednesday when her latest album "Partners" entered the Billboard 200 chart at number one, AFP reports.
Barbra Streisand showed a posse of hot young talent how it's done Wednesday when her latest album "Partners" entered the Billboard 200 chart at number one, AFP reports.
It's the 10th chart-topping album for the 72-year-old singer, songwriter, author, actress and director with two Academy Awards and eight Grammys to her name.
The triumph comes almost exactly 50 years to the day when her 1964 album "People" hit number one, said the music industry trade journal on its www.billboard.com website.
Going straight to number one on the Billboard 200 has become commonplace for twenty-something divas like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift with big marketing machines behind them.
But by virtue of age alone, they can't hope to match Streisand's claim to having chart-topping albums in each and every decade since the 1960s.
Streisand is pitching "Partners" to a younger demographic, appearing Monday on NBC's "The Tonight Show" for a singalong with its host Jimmy Fallon, who is 32 years her junior.
Streisand's 34th studio album, "Partners" features duets with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, Blake Shelton, her son Jason Gould and, from beyond the grave, Elvis Presley.
