Barbra Streisand Remembers Her ‘A Star Is Born’ Co-Star Kris Kristofferson


Barbra Streisand paid tribute to her 'A Star Is Born' costar Kris Kristofferson, remembering him as a 'special' and 'charming' performer.

Kristofferson, the legendary country singer-songwriter who also graced silver screens, won a Golden Globe for his leading portrayal of destructive rocker John Norman Howard in the 1976 remake of the 1937 original film of the same name. While no cause of death was shared and the family asked for privacy as it grieves, Kristofferson was previously candid about experiencing memory loss and receiving a diagnosis of Lyme Disease. Streisand was joined by Hollywood industry colleagues in remembering the seminal artist, alongside the likes of Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire and LeAnn Rimes.
