Kirstie Alley (I knew I'd be mentioning her sooner rather than later) has signed on to do a Showtime reality series called Fat Actress. My first thought is that's tremendously brave, and I will be pissed if it's all just a big winking excuse to laugh at the fat lady. My second thought is, does our advocate really have to be Kirstie Alley? Because we've all seen those Pier One commercials. Man, she is irritating.

All I can say is: Kirstie Alley is 53! Wow. I didn't know that, I was thinking mid-late 40's. (I have never seen the Pier 1 commercials so I don't know how annoying she is.)
Kirstie Alley is fat? In what universe?
I mean there's very little revolutionary profit to be found in classifying exactly who's fat and who isn't, and where the line between fat and not-fat is, so lets not waste our time. But Kirstie Alley? Is not fat.

Sasha, you haven't seen the tabloids lately. (Good for you, heh.) They've been printing tons of photos of Kirstie Alley that are not flattering for many reasons, mostly because they keep taking pictures of her eating cheeseburgers. She's genuinely gained a lot of weight, though.
I'm going to have a hard time taking her seriously as any kind of representative for fat women, assuming that's what she's doing here. She's been hiding her gorgeous ass in dusters and standing behind potted plants for years, and the self-hatred displayed there is REALLY annoying. Not that I mean to be entirely unsympathetic, because don't we all have our issues, but her behavior really been a hot button for me.
Heh, Marla. Hiding behind potted plants. I haven't really seen that, but she's been off my radar except when the tabloids get all mean about her weight. I shouldn't pick up those "MARTHA BALLOONS TO 240 POUNDS!" articles and read them, but I do! I can't help myself. I love how they're all phrased with such concern, while they publish these awful, embarrassing photos.
how you are saying?
On God I am telling!
