Showbiz icon Barbra Streisand is reportedly taking on the role of a matchmaker for Hollywood star Jennifer Aniston, who is currently single.
As Jennifer's close friends have been unsuccessful in finding a suitable partner for the 54-year-old former "Friends" star, sources told RadarOnline.com that she has turned to one of her lifelong idols for assistance.
Jennifer recently paid a heartfelt tribute to Barbra Streisand, 81, by recreating a vintage image of the legendary actress from the 1960s in a magazine spread.
Barbra expressed her admiration for Jennifer's portrayal, humorously commenting, "If only she had a bump on her nose."
Insiders from the entertainment industry have observed the striking resemblance between the two stars, with the exception of their noses, and Barbra has long been an admirer of the younger actress.
"Barbra is determined to find the perfect match for Jen," revealed the source. "She has successfully played matchmaker for others in the past."
Jennifer's first marriage to Brad Pitt ended in a heartbreaking divorce in 2005 when he left her for Angelina Jolie.
Her second marriage to Justin Theroux also ended after just two years in 2017. The couple finalized their divorce the following year but remain on good terms and have been seen together at dinners recently.
"Barbra is already planning intimate dinner parties where Jen will be seated next to someone genuinely compatible," shared the well-informed source.
"Jen is flattered by the special attention she's receiving and believes that positive changes are on the horizon.
In an interview with Allure magazine in December, Jennifer admitted to longing for a meaningful relationship.
"I would love to be in a partnership. Who knows? There are moments when I just want to curl up and say, 'I need support.' It would be wonderful to come home and find solace in someone's arms after a tough day," she noted.
