The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsO.K., at long last, is Barbra *evil*?!1 Sets up a fragile KRISTOFFERSON to fail at her concert.
Look, she is non pareil for me, the *only* voice, both in singing and politics. And all the misogynist sniping about her, has washed down the drain life long.
But this makes me wonder: Why did she feature KRISTOFFERSON in whatever his condition is, barely able to walk even with assistance and not singing?
This was after, when the COOPER-Gaga version of the movie was ballyhooed, she kept a dignified supportive posture, yet now she appeared to be flaunting that her version was better, which is *FINE*.
So here she is having (how old is he?) KRISTOFFERSON handled onto the stage and his not able to sing. The video I chose here is motion unstable, but I chose it because of including his assisted entrance and exit of the stage, possibly his acting like he doesn't even know where he is. Oh, google says he's 83 years old. I'll EDIT to include a parallel situation where Liza duets with PAVAROTTI his not able to do the English but HER BEING KIND and taking up the slack.
To be fair, I never saw the movie, thought all her movies after FunnyG & TheWay were toss-aways (I didn't see them) - flame away for my griping without viewing - and thought that she was always just featuring the latest dude-of-the-moment.
Look how supportive Liza is by contrast:
