Barbra Streisand To Women In Hollywood: "We Have To Join Forces"

At The Hollywood Reporter's 2015 Women in Entertainment breakfast Wednesday morning, Barbra Streisand encouraged women to work together — rather than against each other.

"We have to join forces. Women are nurturers, just by our physiology," she told the audience while receiving the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award at the event at Milk Studios in Los Angeles. "We come from the heart, and our instinct for love and compassion is something that this chaotic world needs more than ever."

The 10-time Grammy winner said that women need to band together to support Hillary Clinton and "elect the first American woman president, someone who will represent our values and our interests."

"But that means all of us have to get the rest of us out to vote," she added.

Robert Redford, who co-starred with her in the 1973 movie The Way We Were, presented Streisand with the honor, which recognizes women who serve as pioneers in the world of entertainment. The award has previously been given to Shonda Rhimes, Oprah Winfrey, Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton and Jodie Foster.

"I'd been warned about her that she could be a pain in the ass, and that she was a control freak," said Redford of his former co-star. "But what I found out what that she was a sheer pleasure to work with."

    No thanks, Babs. As a nurturing compassionate woman who cares about my fellow Americans and my country, I'm voting for Trump.
