Back in April the National Enquirer ran a story claiming Barbra Streisand was feuding with her gay son, Jason Gould. The paper claimed the showbiz icon, 70, wanted her boy to “settle down with one guy” and give her some grandkids.
After the story ran, though, Streisand issued a “Truth Alert” to call it out as a fib:
“I was just made aware of a ridiculous story in one of those weekly rags. This is just to say that the story is untrue in every respect, just unmitigated, sloppy, and malicious invention. The madness of the constant inaccuracy of these publications is evidenced by the fact that in this recent story the main photo they use of ‘Jason’ is not even Jason!”
The Enquirer just issued a correction about the photo in its May 12 issue, but hasn’t back away from the original “feud” claim. Instead the paper said Mama and Baby Boy mended fences at her 70th birthday party in Malibu. Streisand allegedly credits John Travolta and wife Kelly Preston for the reunion: “Barbra is beyond grateful to John and Kelly for what they’ve done,” an “insider” tells the mag.
Hmm, Babs wants Jason to settle down with a guy and have a kid and suddenly unabashed heterosexual John Travolta and totally-not-a-beard Kelly Preston appear on the scene?
How about we take this to the next level?

Of COURSE it’s false…..Because NOBODY could ever have a dissagreement with Streisand. Everybody in Hollywood has said what a sweet, soft spoken, easy going, person she is to work with. Well you know….the ones still talking to her have said that. ……Well they haven’t really said that. But….well you know.

We’re in a tizzy in Brooklyn. Barbra is coming to the Barclay (google Barclays Center) this Fall.

The NE’s story is bogus. I saw Barbra and Jason hanging together at a play in March and they snuck into a test screening of her new movie together a few weeks before that.

I am so glad this is cleared up. I was soooo close to suicide over this. The world can begin revolving again.

C’mon, Queerty, where is the son’s picture?

She does have a point, if the NE publishes a pic that isn’t even her son (HELLO NE, heard of Google Image Search?) why give the story any credibility.
