"My Name is Barbra," the long-awaited memoir from Barbra Streisand, is out today, clocking in at a massive nine hundred and ninety-two pages.

The audiobook is 48 hours and 15 minutes.

The 81-year-old legend opens up about her professional life which deserves all the pages it gets.

She also has some hilarious stories about things that could only happen to Barbra.

During an interview with the BBC, she revisited how iPhone's Siri couldn't say her name correctly.

Siri would say Streizand, not Striesand.

So she called the head of Apple, Tim Cook, to make the change, and it was done right away.

Go try it.

In an interview with Gayle King from CBS News, she says she didn't want to discuss her dating life in her memoir but realized she had to include a few highlights.

Before marrying James Brolin 25 years ago, she had relationships with Don Johnson, Ryan O'Neal, Andre Agassi and former Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau, which she touches on in the memoir.

"I didn't want to write about any of them," Streisand told King, "but my editor said, 'You have to leave some blood on the page!'"

She later added she had a good time with the men in he life.

The book is out now.
