Famed singer-slash-actress Barbra Streisand revealed in Variety's latest cover story that she has not one but two cloned dogs. Named Miss Scarlett and Miss Violet, the two were created using DNA from Streisand's late Coton de Tulear, Samantha. So far, the EGOT winner has reportedly found that the dogs have different personalities, but she is waiting to see "if they have [Samantha's] brown eyes and her seriousness."
Not surprisingly, Streisand's disclosure inspired a lot of people's thoughts and feelings, and they headed to Twitter to express them. Many were completely appalled, but for different reasons. Some thought it was a waste of money, others pointed out the health problems cloned animals suffer from, and others still pointed out how many dogs are in need of adoption. There were also those who just found it creepy.
fascinated by barbara streisand's decision to clone her dog, who died last year. i'm crazy about my cat and can't bear to think of him dying, but feel it would be somewhat creepy to clone him https://t.co/PqWX7daUAR

With all the dogs that need forever homes, Barbra Streisand's decision to clone her dead dog is despicable and a terrible example...I don't care what songs she has sung or what movies she has directed...

Barbra Streisand cloned her dog twice meanwhile 10,000 dogs die a day in shelters. It costs between $50k and $100k to have a dog cloned. Think of all the dogs that could have been rescued with that kind of $. But please Barbra continue to lecture us all about how we should live

Barbra streisand's dog died last year, so she cloned it and made two new identical dogs. What.

Yeah, why wouldn't you? Besides the major health concerns and the million dogs locked up behind bars looking for a home why wouldn't you? https://t.co/0k64A9juaa

Of course, Streisand had her supporters, too.
Barbra Streisand cloned her new dogs from her dead dog what an ICON.

I'm a big enough person to admit that I'm extremely jealous of Barbra Streisand and her army of cloned dogs

@etnow shame on you for criticizing Barbra Streisand - it's her business and her money. You should focus on how generous barbara is in her philanthropy work instead of her cloning her dogs since she did not ask ET for permission.

We doubt Streisand cares too much either way -- she has Miss Scarlett and Miss Violet on her side.
