Barbra Streisand's cloned her dog twice

Barbra Streisand loved her pet dog Samantha so much that she had her cloned when she died - twice!

The 14 year old Coton du Tulear pooch passed away last year and the singer and actress was distraught.

Barbra's now revealed in an interview with Variety that she harvested cells from Samantha’s stomach and mouth and had her cloned.

Missing my girl Samantha. Look at those eyes... the depth in them. Her Mom xo.

Miss Violet and Miss Scarlett are clones but Babs can’t tell them apart, so she makes them wear different coloured jumpers.

There is a third dog, another Coton du Tulear, called Miss Fanny. She's not a clone of Samantha but a distant relative.

Would you clone your fur baby if he/she passed away?!
