At 74, leggy Streisand’s still the way she was

- By Tim Lamden Showbusine­ss Correspond­ent

AT 74, her youth is behind her. But Barbra Streisand shows little sign of ageing. The Oscar-winning actress and singer looked sensationa­l as she showed off her slender legs in a photo shoot.

She appears on the cover of W magazine’s latest issue in a white blouse along with a Giorgio Armani tie, baring her thighs in a pair of Falke tights with open-toed Jimmy Choo shoes.

Her legs look almost unchanged from her starring appearance in the 1 7 film The Main Event.

She is currently on a stadium tour promoting her latest album.

Miss Streisand has previously put her timeless beauty down to a happy home life with second husband James Brolin, whom she married in 1 8. She was previously married to actor Elliott Gould.

Notoriousl­y averse to exercise, she once admitted ‘eating like a pig’. But the star of Funny Girl and The Way We Were has long faced speculatio­n that she has been under the plastic surgeon’s knife.

In 2003 she was pictured leaving a private clinic with her entire face and neck covered by a straw hat and scarf.

She is reportedly a fan of facial fat transplant­ation, a £2,500 procedure where fat is removed from the thighs and injected into the face to fill in wrinkles.

Speaking to W magazine, she said she had met Brolin on a blind date. She said: ‘He had cut off all his hair and was clean-shaven. I asked him, “Who screwed up your hair?”

‘He later told me that’s when he fell in love with me. My fella likes to hear the truth, which is unusual.’
