It was about Barbara Streisand trying to keep her house(?) out of the media or something. I can’t remember what it was she was trying to hide, but I am 70% certain it had something to do with a property.

Some photographer took a picture of a random cliff that looked amazing in the sunlight and that picture just happened to include her home at the time. Except no one knew that and her subsequent blow up in trying to get the photo removed led to everyone knowing that her home was in the picture, and if she hadn’t made a fuss, it would have continued being a secret.
