Oprah Teams Up With Kirstie

March 19, 2008


Kirstie Alley's legendary bikini-wearing appearance on Oprah Winfrey's show won't be the last we'll see of their collaboration. The former Cheers star and Jenny Craig spokeswoman has been signed to Harpo Productions — Oprah's production company — in a TV development deal which could include a syndicated daily talk show.

"I'm very open with what I've been through in my own personal life, and nothing — I mean nothing — is off-limits for me to talk about. Nothing shocks me. I'm a great listener. I'm a good comedian. And I won't lie — I live a beautiful life. So I hope to bring those elements together to offer something totally fresh for the television audience," said Alley.

Tim Bennet, president of Harpo Productions, is a fan of Alley's breezy outlook. "Kirstie is a tremendous talent who is incredibly relatable and a true fan favorite, and we are thrilled to welcome her to Harpo. Audiences love her and it's easy to see why: She is always at ease. We are looking forward to working together to bring viewers everywhere her distinctive voice and comedic flair."

Craig Clients regain their weight and then some. You were one of the lucky ones a least you claimed you lost "75 lbs" while fattening your wallet. Most poor soles that go on the Jenny Craig program only get to loose their wallets. I wonder who got the last laught on this deal. Hay how do you sleep at night? or are you up all night eating? Haaaaaaaaaaaa.

Kirstie: Keep on being beautiful and funny. I am also a Valerie Bertinelli fan; you two are like apples and oranges, different but each unique in your own way. Keep being the best you!
