Barbra Streisand Says She Will Move to Australia If Trump Becomes President
Streisand, one of Clinton’s top celebrity backers in the 2016 race for the White House, has been increasingly vocal in her support for the Democratic candidate and increasingly open about her dislike of Republican Donald Trump.
The Grammy, Emmy, Oscar and Tony-winning multi-hyphenate is set to host an “LGBT for Hillary” dinner fundraiser next month at New York City’s Cipriani Wall Street, with tickets ranging from $1,200 all the way up to $250,000.
In March, Streisand penned an essay in which she blasted the “outright sexism” in the media’s coverage of Clinton.
“Why is it that today even a woman as impressive as Hillary Clinton is judged not by her merits and extensive resume alone, but held to a pernicious double standard?” she wrote in a short essay for the Huffington Post.
Last year, Streisand called the prospect of a Trump presidency “terrifyingly scary.”
Streisand is just one of nearly a dozen celebrities who have publicly vowed to move out of the United States in the event that Trump is elected. Other stars who have made the same pledge include Whoopi Goldberg, Miley Cyrus, Samuel L. Jackson, George Lopez, Raven-Symoné and Cher.
