HOLLYWOOD LEGEND TONY
CURTIS isn't afraid of letting a little
thing like modesty get in the way of a
television tribute.
The 76-year-old, being honored by
England's BBC Hollywood Greats pro-
gram, said, "When the BBC wanted
to celebrate my life, I wasn't surprised.
I intrigue me. There's no ego in this,
but I've had such an interesting life."
Curtis, scheduled to appear in a
musical version of Some Like It Hot at
Detroit's Fisher Theatre next year, can
no longer be bothered with
Tinseltown.
With a hint of bitterness, he says,
"Hollywood — who needs it? I paid
my dues in that town. I dedicated
myself for 20 years, when I worked
and lived there and put money back
into that economy. And I've given
some excellent performances on
screen, but I never got an Oscar."
No uncomfortable phone calls. No plans to coordinate. It's Just Lunch!, the
best approach to dating for busy professionals.
BOB DYLAN'S RAREST RECORD-
INGS are to be saved as part of a
$22,600 project by America's National
Academy of Recording Arts and
Sciences. The Academy is handing over
the money to preserve the recordings
by transferring them from tape to CD.
The rare Dylan recordings were
taped in the New York apartment of
Agnes Cunningham and Gordon
Friesen in the early 1960s. The couple
started a recording studio and maga-
zine, Broadside, in their living room
and brought in folk stars, including
Dylan, to record.
The collection now includes 1,500
songs and interviews, which will soon
be transferred to CD.
ACTRESS AND SINGER
BARBRA STREISAND, who just
celebrated her 60th birthday, has
had to accept a third of the price
she was demanding for her plush
New York apartment.
The star has finally sold her
Manhattan penthouse to a single
businesswoman for $4 million, after
originally asking $12 million when
she put the property on the market
four years ago.
Streisand's problem has been her
apartment building's co-op board,
which can veto prospective buyers,
such as troubled singer Mariah
Carey, who had previously bid $10
million.
Said a friend, quoted in London's
Gwyneth Paltrow: "Stand up straight!"
Daily Mail: "This has been a time
of re-appraisal for Barbra. She
