She had her own short-lived CBS sitcom Bette. Although the initial ratings were high, numbers soon declined and in the show's short lifespan her daughter and her husband were recast. The show was reportedly rocked by backstage turmoil, and did not last a full season. Bette or Bust, a book chronicling Midler's Divine Miss Millennium Tour was released. After years of declining sales, Bette was officially dropped from Warner Brothers in 2001. After a long standing feud with Barry Manilow, the two joined forces for the first time in twenty years in 2003 to record "Bette Midler Sings the Rosemary Clooney Songbook." Of the project, Barry said he had a dream that he was recording with Bette again, so he called her up with the idea and she agreed that it was due time to work together again. They got Columbia Records on board and the album was an instant success, going gold in only a few short weeks. The album was one of her best-selling albums in 20 years, and was nominated for a grammy the following year.
