Barbara Streisand: "Mother Focker"!

According to Reuters, Babs Streisand, everyone's favorite egocentric diva, is in final negotiations to play Ben Stiller's mom in the sequel to the wildly popular "Meet The Parents:"

"The sequel, 'Meet the Fockers,' is set to go into production April 5 with Jay Roach back as director. The film is slated for release on Dec. 22, the studio spokesman said.

" ... Stiller starred in the original box office hit film as accident-prone male nurse Greg Focker, who goes through hell when he visits the childhood home of his intended fiance, Pam Byrnes to meet her mother and father (played by Robert Deniro) an overly protective former CIA agent with a lie-detector in the basement. Greg ultimately wins them over.

"In the sequel, a clash of cultures ensues when the straight-laced, conservative Byrnes family meets the liberal, relaxed Fockers."

Didn't we all know all along that Barbara Streisand was a Mother Focker?
