""I would take her singing any day of the week over Idina screeching and gasping for air in my ear.""
Second this! Though I'm not a Beyonce fan either, I did think her version of The Way We Were was touching. Idina will never be a good singer to me...very harsh on the ears. I also much prefer Linda Eder, but do think her performance there would have over shadowed the honoree. Idina, however, made Streisand look great.
Very dissappointing that Queen Latifah didn't sing anything...who knew she was a Streisand fan!
Loved Beyonce.
And quite enjoyed Latifah's intro, as well.
"The look you saw on Streisand's face was regarding the lyric, not anything Menzel did wrong."
For all we know the look on her face could have been caused by trying not to pass gas. I love all these interpretations of what someone was thinking, based on a 2 second flash of someone's face.
sjb singing don't rain on my parade

Beyonce rocked it.
Idina was alright.
I was very impressed by Beyonce.
Do we really think Menzel would've been chosen if Herself had a problem with her? Streisand is pretty giving to steel-throated singers -- picked Celine to sing in her absence, famously. I have to believe she approved of this gifted girl from Long Island. Or at the very least was neutral.
Those VIPS at that event knew that at any moment they could be on camera. Especially the one who's being honored. I'm sure Babs was plenty self conscious all night!

I loved every second of the tribute.
