Streisand Museum To Close Doors

The Barbra Streisand museum is closing due to lack of interest—even the director doesn't care anymore.

The "Hello Gorgeous" museum opened two years ago in San Francisco. It was dedicated to all things Streisand.

At first, hundreds of people a day visited at $3 a head. But this winter, there were days when no one came.

Worst of all, the man in charge, Ken Joachim, says he's lost interest, too. He says these days, he turns the radio off when Streisand comes on.

He plans to close May 24th and sell the contents a week later.
