DIVA. DIVA. DIVAAAA! Babs recently opened up in an interview with NPR, speaking of her frustrations with iPhone goddess Siri for pronouncing her name incorrectly.
“Streisand with a soft S, like sand on the beach,” Streisand explained. “I’ve been saying this for my whole career. I called the head of Apple, Tim Cook,” she continued. “And he delightfully agreed to have Siri change the pronunciation of my name, finally, with the next update.”
Apparently, Siri’s got that shit right now, and will correctly pronounce the icon’s name starting on September 30th. Mark your calendar’s! If you are on hunger strike til it happens — just hold on a little longer!
