Barbra Streisand Called Apple CEO Tim Cook Directly When Siri Mispronounced Her Name

While some of us may still marvel at the magic of Siri, we're more likely to spend 15 minutes feeling frustrated with Apple's digital assistant after trying, again, to set a reminder to DVR "Game Of Thrones." Barbra Streisand, however, is not one to let technology get the best of her. When it was brought to her attention that Siri had been pronouncing her name wrong, she handled the problem like a complete boss. Streisand explained on NPR's Weekend Edition how Siri pronounced her last name "with a soft S, like sand on the beach." She added, "I've been saying this for my whole career."
