Oscar-winning singer and actress Barbra Streisand will perform at a glittering and lucrative Hollywood fundraiser for Democrat Barack Obama Tuesday, aides said.
The White House hopeful will host a dinner costing 28,500 dollars per person in a Beverly Hills mansion, and Streisand will then sing at a reception at the swanky Beverly Wilshire hotel, campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki said Monday.
Streisand supported Obama's party rival Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primaries but is now backing the Illinois senator in his hard-fought campaign against Republican John McCain for the November 4 election.
Obama aides declined to say how many people were expected Tuesday, nor which other stars might attend.
Politico.com said upwards of 250 high rollers would attend the dinner and Hollywood's Variety newspaper said about 900 people would be at the reception, with singer Ben Harper also performing.
