- Singing in public can make many people nervous -- including
- the otherwise mettlesome Meryl Streep. She belts out a country
- tune in the fall film Postcards from the Edge, based on Carrie
- Fisher's novel about a drug-plagued actress who, among other
- things, sings in a Western. "I was beside myself with fear,"
- says Streep. "My knees were going a mile a minute and my upper
- lip was uncontrollable." The Oscar winner repeated the song for
- three full days until she and director Mike Nichols were
- satisfied. Afterward she treated the L.A. crew and cast to an
- off-the-cuff concert.
