A scots singing student has been tipped for stardom by legend Barbra Streisand.
Maureen McMullan, who's studying at Berklee College of Music in Boston, came face to face with the superstar after she was told someone wanted to congratulate her on her performance of Summertime at a student show.
The 30-year-old, of Coatbridge, Lanarkshire, said: "I was astonished when Barbra Streisand stepped forward.
"She took my hand and said, 'You have a wonderful voice. Never give up.'"
