Iconic singer Barbra Streisand has spoken candidly in her new memoir about her life and career – and the pressure people put on her about her looks.

In an excerpt from her book called My Name is Barbra, that was shared with People magazine this week, the hitmaker, 81, revealed she was repeatedly told to get a nose job in the peak of her career.

The Way We Were singer said she always refused as she was happy with her facial features – but admitted that she’s ”still hurt by the insults”.

She added that she was also told to cap her teeth, but she knew she could make it on talent alone.

“I thought, ‘Isn’t my talent enough?’ A nose job would hurt and be expensive,” Streisand writes in the book.

“It was too much of a risk. And who knew what it might do to my voice?”

Despite saying that she was once told she had a deviated septum, she said that she “liked long noses”.

She lamented about fame: “I guess when you become famous, you become public property.”

Streisand’s memoir was released on November 7 and is also said to touch on her love life and high-profile romances over the years.

She previously spoke to The Guardian about her career and her looks and said that she saw her face in a different light when illustrator and make-up artist Bob Schulenberg completed drawings of her.

She said the drawings “made me aware of what was beautiful about my face, which I wasn’t aware of at all”.

Streisand is better known for her role as Fanny Brice in the classic 1968 musical Funny Girl. She has won five Oscars, eight Grammy awards and has a net worth of $400 million.
