It's definitely her. I remember seeing her years ago onstage in the musical "Alice in Concert." She was terrific. She also sang in "Ironweed," "Death Becomes Her," and "Postcards from the Edge."

It's really and truly Meryl:
"At long last, Lindsay Lohan and Meryl Streep sing on the same CD. Okay, so they don't actually duet, but both do perform on the soundtrack to Robert Altman's take on Garrison Keillor's popular radio show. (Keillor fans will know exactly what to expect, as the film is scrupulously faithful to his universe, and Keillor and his Shoe Band wrote a good deal of the songs.) As anybody who's seen Postcards from the Edge knows, Streep can really sing, and she sounds great in the rootsy, old-style country vein that makes up most of this soundtrack. Her rollicking duets with her screen sister Lily Tomlin, "My Minnesota Home" and "Goodbye to My Mama," are priceless. Woody Harrelson and John C. Reilly are beyond crusty on "Whoop-I-Ti-Yi-Yo," which sounds like both an outtake from and a parody of O Brother, Where Art Thou?, while "Bad Jokes" is, well, just that. As for Lohan, who plays Streep's daughter, her version of "Frankie & Johnny" is a little shaky but hea! rtfelt and kinda adorable. Purists, you can start hollering now. "

Meryl Streep is a singer. At one time I think she campaigned for the lead in Evita. She also sings in Postcards from the Edge.

It is Meryl Streep doing her own singing.

Both she and Lily are actually singing,,, Intentionally not as star quality entertainers.
I am old enough to recall many years of companion, yet the movie was sadly unjust.
