Kirstie Alley's Big Life

I saw a couple of episodes of this last night, hmm, I didn't even know I got that channel..anyway, her real life is probably interesting, but, instead I saw contrived situations and the eternal battle against fat..and it's clear she's lost again. Yeah, she's fat, so what? She's funny and honest and she lives in a huge wacky mansion with her kids and dogs and a ton of Lemurs (wtf?) and a shit load of nutty people who wait on her all day. She has stylists, maid-cooks, assistants, apprentices, handy men, animal trainers...and it's crazy. She seems to have a lot of money for someone who hasn't worked in awhile and the show intrigues me. Hopefully, I'll get to see more of the real Kirstie and her genuinely big life without the hoopla the network thinks we want.
*
Sometimes I think it would be nice to be rich and have a mansion, but, how does she actually live with all those people all day? It's like some crazy commune. And I really wish someone would tell the creator of this show that I don't care if she's fat. Fat is not that interesting. But, she might be. You can watch it on You Tube. Here's the first episode, tell me what you think..oh, and check out her house!

i don't get how scientology, which can cure ANYTHING, hasn't helped her with her weight!

Kiki ;) I do not suffer fools gladly !snark snark !! said...

Miss tia cuz it's a big fat lie !
Here's an idea for Kirstie ! Why not get rid of
all the entourage / staff/ and clean your own
house / do your own gardening/ cook your
own meals / wash the dishes / dogs / lemers/
basically all that outsourcing of domesticity
is where all your extra calories could have been
burnt up. DIY ! Try it Kirstie you might like the
satisfacation of doing for yourself and the side
effect weight loss will be a twofer !! Kiki ;)

hey, my hubby had a press junket at that house! he worked with her on cheers way back when. anyway, he said the house was a mess and just falling apart at the seams. he described it as the "Adams Family house". that's all I got out of him, he finds all of this gossip stuff so boring and wouldn't talk about it anymore.bima

miss tia said...

I like Kirstie. She's funny and seems fun. I think she needs a big support system for w/e her decisions might be. She is not a loner. I also think she's gorgeous and with that 90 pounds off could give any other actress in Hollywood a run for their money! Hope she can do it, I have my doubts. And, yea...where the hell does she get money? "Cheers" reruns? I am serious. thats all she has. Who can afford all that help? Wow! Nice house tho. It may need repairs but it's worth millions. And she has a guy doing the work. I think she takes things pretty slow. Is that the house she had with Parker Stevenson? Hubba-hubba!!! Her kids are beautiful. Adopted yes, but gorgeous. And damn lucky they didnt inherit her fat-gene.

Kirstie Alley may be a fat lunatic but at least she never murdered her autistic son.

Just watched most of the 1st 2 episodes. I liked it. I never know when stuff is on tho. I miss everything. It's my meds. I can't stay awake for anything anymore.

Ok, she is fat. Ruby's show is more interesting because Ruby is a sweet heart. Anyway, she was great on Cheers but now she looks like a transvestite. I cannot even look at her face anymore. And did anyone check to see if her two teens are on the show and/or listed as producers. I am sure if they are acting on this and/or shown as producing, they are pulling in a paycheck. Interesting to see that these two kids were kept quiet all these years and now they have to be put in the public eye for this crapola.

Go Crabbie!! Sooo f'g true! John T is a dick for not getting his son medical help. Too late now. I hope he suffers the rest of his life with the guilt too. And you KNOW he is! I find some kind of satisfaction in knowing that he has guilt. He should have!! Poor Jett. He never had a chance. It's like the Nazi's. Weed out the undesirables, ya know? Right?

Ruby, Kirstie is shown as the executive producer. Not her kids. Her kids are great.

Crabbie u gotta give her that one I agree.
The Travoltas are idiots especially Kelly
she was born into it and perpetuated the
lies and paid the ultimate for it with her son
now passed. She's still going on in the org
nonchalantley. What does it take how many
bricks have to fall on you ? The whole house
wouldn't be enough for these two dolts !!
At least Paul Haggis got out and told them
where to shove it only after 35 long years.

Miss Tia I will tell you this early since I'm in
the same kinda mood you seem to be in today.
Now I was going to wait until this Thursday on
your birthday April 8th 2010 and wish you a
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS Tia !!!
You're fourty wonderful !!!
You are in good company miss Tia you share the
date of April 8 with a lil actress named Mary
Pickford born in 1893 in Toronto who became
Americas sweetheart ! Have a gr8 day ! Kiki :)

she went from cigarettes to coke to food. In that order. I get it. She has an addictive personality. She is also addicted to having ppl around her all the time. I think maybe to keep her mind off her own issues. I agree, if she did clean her own house maybe she would lose weight. But how many movie/TV Stars do you think clean their own homes? And how many fat housewives do we all know? Being fat has nothing to do with doing housework etc. It's the shit she eats! We all do it at times. She must be addicted to sugar or something. I also was in disbelief when the scales said 230 lbs. I was thinking way higher!

just wondering said...

Personally, I think Kirstie is bi-polar.

Christina said...

Miss Tia, I am loving your sense of humor today!

I haven't watched the show, but I've watched other shows with her, and just kind of like her quirky personality. The bubbly craziness, with a little bit of craftiness mixed in. One show I watched was a make-over of her kitchen. It wasn't bad in the first place, but they did a nice job on the re-do.
It is so hard for me to reconcile that someone like her, that I enjoy, could be a part of Scientology. I think of them as one of the most hard-core bad influences.
I don't know where she gets all her money for that entourage, either. All I can imagine is that she was well-paid by Jenny Craig, and she probably did some successful producing of something.

I just watched all the episodes...she is so funny, and open, and determined to get a bunch of that fat off. Great kids too.

I think she would be a great neighbor. Scientology never even comes up.

She's pathetic. What is she, 45 years old? And still bases her life on "Ew, I'm fat" like an insecure 19-year-old. She is too old to still think the most important thing in life is the size of your pants. She needs to go out and get some perspective on the world.

Heidi said...

Hubs and I watch this show. She makes me laugh. She always has. We laughed when she had that show Fat Actress.
I do think she has too many people working for her also.
Her show is on every Sunday night 10pm and 1030pm EST

Alison said...

Kiki-Damn, I didn't realize she was 54. Then she is REALLY too old for her obsession with weight! She's lame.

Alison said...

I'm in my 50's, and every time I look in the mirror I wonder why the fat just sticks like that. When I was young my weight never went up, up, up. And if I gained a couple of pounds they could come off so easily. I am slowly losing the weight, but gosh I hate that mirror right now!

I can really relate to her obsession with her weight. She owns that she ate herself there. Remember, she's an actress and is on the front pages of magazines whether she wants to be or not.

I say, You go girl!

If u check her work record, she has never NOT been working. She even has a movie out this year. A minot character I'm sure, but I don't see her hiding in a corner in any movie! She had 67 episodes of Veronicas Closet, which still runs and was a good show! She has always worked, fat or not. She makes the cash to support herself and apparently enough to supposrt all her employees! Jeesh! I love her. Always have. Ever since "V-Jer" in the very 1st Star Trek movie! She had all of Hollywood on it's knees back then.

Christina said...

I didn't remember that she was in the first Star Trek movie. I'll have to go look at that.

Linda said...

She also had a couple of Who's Talking movies, right? With Travolta? Not sure how much that brings in..

can not stand the woman
she wont lose the weight the weight is her career

She became another fat loud obnoxious woman and that's when she became uninteresting to me. I loved her in her Cheers days when she was fresh, funny and honest.

She always looks like she's trying to take a dump, why must she make that ridiculous face all the time?!
