BETTE MIDLER


Everybody's favourite Yiddishe mama, she is a natural successor to Barbra Streisand (for the voice), Lucille Ball (for the gags) and Emu for the feathers. She was touching but a little more Scott than Janis Joplin in "The Rose". But if they ever do a remake of "Funny Girl", she's a cert for Fanny Brice.
