 Burt Reynolds told Sandy Duncan he 'wanted to kill' her at height of 'Barney' fame, she says Sandy Duncan, whose career spans seven decades with Emmy, Tony, and Golden Globe nominations, is still remembered by many for her brief role in Barney & the Backyard Gang.  In 1988, during a Hollywood writers’ strike, Duncan accepted the part of “Mom” in the direct‑to‑video children’s series about a purple dinosaur.  Though she had already built a reputation in family entertainment with Peter Pan, Pinocchio, and voice work for Scooby‑Doo and The Fox and the Hound, she admitted later that she was surprised by the project’s simplicity and returned to her regular work after filming three episodes. The success of the videos led to PBS picking up Barney & Friends, and producers asked Duncan to reprise her role.  She recalled being pitched on the franchise’s future, including plush toys and merchandising, but declined the offer a decision she later regretted.  Despite...

 Barbra Streisand slammed over Olympic post about Alysa Liu


Barbra Streisand recently faced backlash online after posting what she intended as a celebratory message for Olympic figure skater Alysa Liu. The legendary performer congratulated Liu on her gold medal win at the Winter Olympics in Milan, highlighting that Liu had once skated to her song “Don’t Rain on My Parade.” 


Streisand also added a personal anecdote about her childhood experiences with a Chinese family in Brooklyn, noting Liu’s heritage. While the post was meant to honor Liu, many social media users felt the caption wandered off-topic and drew attention away from the skater’s achievement.


The reactions on Instagram were swift, with some praising Liu’s historic victory while others criticized Streisand’s wording. 


Comments ranged from lighthearted jokes to blunt critiques, with several users suggesting the message seemed awkward or self-focused. 


Many felt that Streisand’s reference to Liu’s background and her own past experiences shifted the spotlight from Liu’s accomplishment to Streisand herself. This sparked a broader conversation about how public figures frame tributes and the importance of keeping the focus on the honoree.


Meanwhile, Liu’s triumph carried deep significance beyond the online chatter. Her gold medal marked the first Olympic win for a U.S. women’s figure skater in 24 years, capping off a journey that began when she started skating at age five. 


With the support of her father and years of rigorous training, Liu delivered a technically precise and emotionally powerful performance set to Donna Summer’s “MacArthur Park.” 


She also contributed to Team USA’s success in the earlier team event, underscoring her role as both an individual champion and a team player. For Liu, the victory was not just about medals but about expressing her artistry and resilience on the ice.
