Barbra Streisand to Perform at Big Obama Fund-raiser

ET confirms that Barbra Streisand will be among the headliners to perform at a major Hollywood fund-raiser later this month for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

Streisand will take the stage September 16 at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel for one of Obama's last major efforts to raise money before the November election. Co-hosts will be DreamWorks heavy hitters Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen.

Obama will start the evening with a 5 p.m. dinner for about 250 people at Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills, with tickets costing $28,500.

Later, he will attend a reception at the Beverly Wilshire, where Streisand will give a special performance. Tickets for that event will cost $2,500 per person.
