Look, this isn’t how I wanted my day to go…

I did not want to read about Barbara Streisand and Warren Beatty and whether or not there was “actual penetration” at one point in their lives…

But I had to see it and now so do you.

The comments are off the charts:

So why are we even talking about this?

I guess because Streisand is getting old and starting to do interviews looking back and reflecting on her life.

And one thing she’s reflecting on is how she just can’t quite remember if Warren Beatty ever “had penetration” with her…

Here’s the history of the two:

Friendship Origins: Streisand and Beatty became friends in the 1960s as they rose to fame in Hollywood, part of the same elite social and creative circles.

Flirtation and Rumors: Though never publicly confirmed, there have long been rumors of a brief romantic or sexual relationship in the early 1970s, especially during Streisand’s split from Elliott Gould and Beatty’s peak bachelor years.

Shared Values: Both were known for their liberal politics and artistic ambition, which strengthened their bond over the years despite no lasting romantic entanglement.

Film Crossover Talk: While they never co-starred in a major film together, there were reports in the 1970s and 1980s of possible projects discussed between them that never came to fruition.

Lifelong Respect: Despite romantic rumors, their connection is best described as a long-term friendship based on mutual respect, with Streisand once calling Beatty “a brilliant, beautiful man.”

But to the question at hand, we turn to the NY Post who had these details on this story of crushing importance:

Funny Girl

Barbra Streisand, 83, won’t admit whether she and her longtime pal Warren Beatty, 88, ever slept together during their rumored fling in the ’70s.

The A Star Is Born actress and singer opened up about the NSFW matter during an interview with The New Yorker while discussing a similar anecdote she shared in her 2023 tell-all My Name Is Barbra.

“I know I slept in the bed with him, but I can’t remember if we actually had penetration,” she claimed. “I swear to God, I can’t. There are certain things I block out.”

However, Streisand quickly moved away from the topic when the interviewer pressed her further about whether or not she ever slept with the Dick Tracy star.

“But I know we’re still friends,” she said, changing the subject. “Every year on my birthday, he calls me and we have a wonderful talk about our lives, our children, and so forth.”

“I know I slept in the bed with him, but I can’t remember if we actually had penetration,” Streisand claimed. “I swear to God, I can’t. There are certain things I block out.”

“So we’re still friends,” Streisand added. “I met him when I was 15 years old, and he was 21, I think.”

In My Name Is Barbra, the Funny Girl star recalled meeting Beatty at the Clinton Playhouse in Connecticut when she was 16 and he was 21. She described Beatty as “tall with movie-star looks” and wrote that “women were already falling at his feet.”

Streisand also wrote about an interview she gave Playboy in 1977 in which the reporter asked whether she was ever “romantically linked” with the Bonnie and Clyde actor.

“I said blithely, ‘One of my flings,’ ” she responded, according to her memoir. “I was just tossing off a reply, playing the role of a jaded woman of the world.”
