Tennis Star Andre Agassi Talks About His Scandalous Affair With Barbra Streisand, Who’s 28 Years His Senior

Having a unique, awe-worthy talent can give everyone an edge. It can also be a very powerful tool in the dating world. Barbra Streisand is one of the lucky ones who are able to use it and she did so without a hesitation.

Many famous men fell under the charm of her outstanding voice. Hollywood actors like Don Johnson, Liam Nesson, and James Brolin, as well as a composer James Newton and even the Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau – all of them were head over heels in love with Streisand.

At one point, the legendary singer even managed to seduce a tennis star, who was 28 younger than her.

An unexpected affair

Tennis legend and former World No.1 Andre Agassi and Barbra Streisand had a scandalous affair back in the 90s.

Agassi, who is considered by many critics as one of the greatest tennis players of all time, often called his relationship with the singer as “a very special friendship,” yet it was evident that what the two had was more than friendship.

When Streisand came to support Andre during his games, all eyes were always on her as the public released a collective gasp after hearing her once mutter “One more, baby.”

In his autobiography, Agassi shared how much he was intrigued and fascinated by Barbara and her voice. He noted that they often laughed at the shock their affair caused but they didn’t care about their age gap and the people’s opinion about it.

Agassi wrote:

Dating Barbra Streisand is like wearing Hot Lava.

However, their union didn’t mean to last. After a few failed relationships, the tennis star met the love of his life, Steffi Graf.

The couple has been happily married since 2001 and have two children together, son Jaden Gil and daughter Jaz Elle.
