Barbra Streisand has seen Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's A Star Is Born and it looks like the remake has hit all the right notes with the star of the previous version of the iconic film. Speaking to Extra, Streisand called Gaga's acting "wonderful" and predicted that the movie will be a "big hit" when it hits theaters next week.
"I loved it. I think it is wonderful, [Lady Gaga] is wonderful," Barbra said. "Bradley told me he spent months with her working to see her real self. I call her Stefani. I can't call her Lady Gaga, but I understand why she called herself Lady Gaga. I understand that person. I think it is great, they are going to have a big hit."
A Star Is Born marks Cooper's directorial and Gaga's big screen debut, and is based on the 1937 film of the same name. Streisand previously starred in the 1976 version of the movie and won an Oscar for Best Original Song for "Evergreen." In the 2018 version, Gaga plays an aspiring singer Ally, who is finding success with the help of Cooper's character Jackson Maine.
