Barbra Streisand returned to "The Tonight Show" for the first time since 1963 to sing several duets with Jimmy Fallon – and to promote her new album.
Barbra Streisand returned to "The Tonight Show" Monday night for the first time in five decades.
The eight-time Grammy Award winning singer and two-time Academy Award winning actor returned to sing several duets with The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon, who impersonated Elvis Presley, Blake Shelton, and Michael Bublé.
The occasion? Streisand is promoting her latest album "Partners" that features duets with the above male singers as well as Andrea Bocelli, John Mayer, and others.
The last time Streisand appeared on The Tonight Show – then hosted by Johnny Carson – was 1963. Other guests of the day were actor Don Adams and "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom" TV host Marlin Perkins. But on Monday night Fallon cleared the schedule for Streisand.
Here's what Associated Press writer Sandy Cohen said about Streisand's new album.
