Barbra Streisand's Receptionist Busted

Barbra Streisand's receptionist needs people -- like criminal defense lawyer Blair Berk.

We've learned Tina Fortenberry was arrested for allegedly possessing cocaine and methamphetamines. She was also busted for possession of a dangerous weapon and for driving on a suspended license.

It happened Wednesday on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu. Fortenberry was stopped for expired tags. After Sheriff's deputies stopped her they found the contraband inside her car.

The dangerous weapon in her car was a sap -- similar to nunchakus.

At the time of her arrest Fortenberry was carrying some mail for Babs that she was supposed to take to the post office. Someone who works for Barbara had to go to the Sheriff's department to retrieve it.

No word on who is answering Barbra's phones, but we hear Lily Tomlin needs work.

36. Barbra! Pick me! I'll do it for half of what you were paying her, which is probably more than most people make in 5 years!! I'm drug/alcohol/drama free - there won't be any embarrassing posts about me on a celebrity blog! I can get your mail to the post office better than anyone else! Oh please pick me!

42. WHO CARES !!
Good ole Babs and her employee's would of been news 25-30 years ago.
In 2009 I am sure 50% of America does not even know who Babs even is, and who cares who or what her secertary did.
