Barbra’s New Career?

By John Q. Sanchez on May 10, 2007 | Share & Save | Link | Print |


Breezy impersonator Barbra by Halstead calls Hollywood’s fabled Comedy Store looking for her big break in the industry. As usual, her unwitting skit partner doesn’t know he’s purportedly speaking to Barbra, which makes it all the more funny (funny weird and funny ha-ha). Check out fake Babs’s quick wit dealing with the gals at the MGM Grand switchboard, and enjoy a new take on an ollllld classic.


Bonus beats: Youtube’s tuecoute and an adorable lip-sych to the actual Barbra’s rousing “Don’t Rain on My Parade”

Great choice on the Barbra interview! Very funny!

I love that he seems so wrapped up in what he is doing.
The fingernail filing though always drives me nuts.

*cracks up* I LOVE the last part where she’s like, “Sir, Ma’am? He’s got more of a gender problem than I do!”

*rolls on the floor* Love love LOVE it! :D

goddamn!! You absolutely MUST have him on the show!!
I just watched a few dozen of his videos, he’s an awesome Barbra.
And hot, out of make up..
