Barbra Streisand is remembering her late co-star Kris Kristofferson. The 82-year-old entertainer took to social media on Sunday (September 29) to pay tribute to her late A Star Is Born co-star and longtime friend after it was revealed he passed away over the weekend. Keep reading to see what she wrote… “The first time I saw Kris performing at the Troubadour club in L.A. I knew he was something special. Barefoot and strumming his guitar, he seemed like the perfect choice for a script I was developing, which eventually became A Star Is Born,” Barbra wrote. “In the movie, Kris and I sang the song I’d written for the film’s main love theme, ‘Evergreen,’” she continued. “For my latest concert in 2019 at London’s Hyde Park, I asked Kris to join me on-stage to sing our other A Star Is Born duet, ‘Lost Inside Of You.’ He was as charming as ever, and the audience showered him with applause. It was a joy seeing him receive the recognition and love he so richly deserved.” “My thoughts go to Kris’ wife, Lisa who I know supported him in every way possible,” she concluded. Barbra and Kris starred together in the 1976 remake of A Star is Born, which earned them both Golden Globe awards for Best Actress/Actor in a Musical or Comedy, respectively. The film also picked up Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy at that year’s Golden Globe awards. Our continued thoughts and condolences go out to Kris Kristofferson‘s family and loved ones during this time.
