Kirstie Alley, former television beauty on the show “Cheers”, has launched her new television show on A&E entitled, “Kirstie Alley’s Big Life”. Since Kirstie’s amazing transformation into Jabba the Hutt she has found that acting job offers have dried up. In a ploy to show the country that she is still alive, though barely, and that she is still a relevant person in Hollywood and deserves another chance, she has launched her “reality” show. The problem is that it is a scripted “reality” show …. and Ms Alley isn’t exactly winning an Emmy for her level of acting prowess on said show.
Way to go Kirstie! Not only are you the size of the Hollywood sign in a town that thinks that a size 4 is unheard of, but you’re also reminding everyone that you can’t act …
… side note: Kirstie Alley made her movie debut in the film “Star Trek 2″, she played a Vulcan. She is now fit to return to Star Trek as a planet!

Singer/actress Cher has been roped in along with Christina Aguilera to star in a musical film named Burlesque.
According to Variety, Aguilera, 28, will play a small-town girl from Iowa who moves to L.A. and lands work at a neo-burlesque club run by Cher.
Screen Gems president Clint Culpepper said he has been lobbying Cher for years to return to films.
“She brings a soulfulness and gravitas to this character that will ground the story,” People magazine quoted Culpepper as saying.
“The only person who was more excited than I am is Christina,” he added. (ANI)

Singer Celine Dion is pregnant with her second child, it has been revealed. The Canadian singer, 41, and her husband René Angelil, 67, are already parents to son René-Charles, eight.
René has three other children from his previous marriages.
“We can confirm she is pregnant,” her spokesperson told US Magazine yesterday, adding that the singer and her husband are “very happy”. The My Heart Will Go On singer has never made a secret of her desire to extend her family, and was always planning to get pregnant following her run of shows in Las Vegas.
But René’s battle with cancer cast doubt over whether the couple would have more children of their own. She said, “We’ll give it a try after my tour. Hopefully we will be parents again. If not, that’s fine. We have our miracle baby.”
Celine became pregnant with René-Charles after having IVF treatment following six years of attempting to conceive. When asked last December about her plans to have another child, she confirmed she and her husband had ‘a frozen embryo’ waiting.
