Barbra Streisand considering Lady Gaga for the film adaptation of Gypsy
Lady Gaga may finally get the chance to play a character other than herself: Barbra Streisand tells Time’s Joel Stein she’s thinking of casting the singer in Gypsy, the long-developing movie adaption of the Broadway musical she’s producing. The story of famous striptease artist Gypsy Rose Lee, Gypsy could be the non-stretch of a role that launches Gaga into film—like Dreamgirls was for Jennifer Hudson and Carmen: A Hip Hopera was for Beyoncé—provided that rumor about her being in the Zoolander sequel doesn't pan out.
