On last night's Extra, Mario Lopez sat down one-on-one with the legendary singer Barbra Streisand to ask her about her upcoming tour to promote her new album "Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway.'

"The first act is songs from number-one albums, and then the second act is the new material from my album." explained Streisand. She also revealed that the concerts will feature some very special guests, "Some of the people who are singing on the album are gonna join me."

In another interview shared on USA Today, Babs spoke about confronting her long history of stage fright in front of thousands of fans while on tour. "It'll be okay because they're there really to support me," she reasons. Check out both interviews below!

Barbra Streisand's upcoming album ENCORE: Movie Partners Sing Broadway will feature international movie stars Hugh Jackman, Jamie Foxx, Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Antonio Banderas, Seth McFarlane and more and will be available August 26.

Streisand will bring her legendary live performances to 9 cities in August, performing her hits from each decade plus songs from her new album, "ENCORE: Movie Partners Sing Broadway," celebrating a career of unparalleled creative achievement. Every ticket purchased online includes a CD of Streisand's new album, which will be released later this year.

The best-selling female recording artist in history, Streisand partners with some of Hollywood's biggest stars to sing Broadway classics on her upcoming album. Following the release of her 2014 record-breaking "Partners," "ENCORE: Movie Partners Sing Broadway" is Streisand's third and long-awaited Broadway album. Streisand released "The Broadway Album" and "Back to Broadway" in 1985 and 1993, respectfully, both of which went multi-platinum.
