Last night, NBC's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" welcomed Barbra Streisand for a night of talk, comedy and performance to celebrate the upcoming release of her new album "Partners." The visit marked Streisand's first U.S. late-night talk show guest appearance in over 50 years.
During the appearance, Jimmy talked to the singer about her album Partners, and she recalled her last Tonight Show appearance circa 50 years ago. Then, Jimmy admits he's surprised how she's not the flashy diva people expect her to be, and why she didn't sing for 27 years. And Streisand reveals how she helped launch Billy Joel's career.
