Barbra Streisand has a very special new duet partner - her son Jason Gould.
The diva has invited her boy to be part of the upcoming duets album she's working on with producer Kenneth 'Babyface' Edmonds - and she'll be showing him off to her fans in Brooklyn, New York next month, when Gould will make his live debut alongside her.
I tell you, when I heard the things he's recorded, the musicianship, the sound of his voice, it's like he has a little chamber music orchestra right in his vocals
The proud mum says, "I used to sing with him when he was a baby; when I came Home from work we would sing together and then when he was 15 I heard this gorgeous hum from behind his door and I went, 'Jason, is that you...? Open the door...'
"A few years ago he said, 'I've started to sing and work on some music...' and I tell you, when I heard the things he's recorded, the musicianship, the sound of his voice, it's like he has a little chamber music orchestra right in his vocals.
"I said, 'Jason, I have to sing with you...'"
Aside from Gould, Streisand reveals she's working through a wish list of men she'd like to duet with for the album, and states, "Babyface has a great voice and (Andrea) Bocelli - we've been talking about singing together for a long time.
"I like Keith Urban, I like Usher, John Legend; there are some good guys around".
