Jennifer Aniston Channels Hero Barbra Streisand

Jennifer Aniston is channeling Barbra Streisand for the September issue of Harper’s Bazaar. In a series of pictures, Aniston dons outfits inspired by wardrobe from Streisand’s movies "Funny Girl" and "What’s Up, Doc?", including hair, makeup, and long fake fingernails. "Barbra inspires me because there isn’t anything she hasn’t done that she wanted to do,” she says. “She’s a true renaissance woman."

The two stars have a lot in common as objections of obsession and derision. “People laugh at me. Sometimes I know why, and sometimes I don’t,” says the former Friends star, who acknowledges that she thinks some people will mock the shots. “But I can pretty much find humor in anything. That is a necessary part of life. I don’t want to say laughter is healing, because it sounds corny, but it’s a release.” –ANDREW BANKIN
