Headline: Barbra Streisand skips Cannes award honour on medical advice
Caption: The legendary actor shared the news that she won't be there after suffering a knee injury. "On the advice of my doctors, as I continue recovering from a knee injury, I am sadly unable to attend the Festival de Cannes this year," Streisand said in a statement on Sunday. "But I am deeply honoured to receive the honorary Palme d'Or and had so been looking forward to celebrating the remarkable films of the 79th edition.". "I was also very much looking forward to spending time with colleagues whom I so admire and, of course, returning to France, a place I have always loved."
