Kirstie Alley Update

Actress & former Jenny Craig spokesperson Kirstie Alley was photographed arriving at Mr Chow restaurant in LA last night in order to celebrate her 59th birthday…

She’s looking so much better these days – she’s definitely lost some weight! Clearly the recent cover stories in the National Enquirer (which claimed she was heavier than ever) were total fabrications.

Kirstie, whose weight ups and downs have been greatly publicized over the years, seems to have a more positive outlook on her weight loss now. She recently wrote on her Twitter page:

“My trainer told me to stick pics of myself the way I like to look on my fridge and in my car… I am looking for those today. Good idea!”

    good she’s trying to lose weight, now she only has 40 pounds to go.

  2. Lucy | 13/01/10

    First!!
    Well, she looked worse some time ago.

  3. Emily | 13/01/10

    All she is to me anymore is an iternal dieter. I hope her life outside the media is more than just her battling with her weight. And i hope she can shed those lbs that she wants to one day, and can keep it off without having to aaaalllways talk about it.

  4. Denise | 13/01/10

    It’s hard to tell whether or not she’s truly lost weight due to the attire. Weight loss is such a struggle for some. Kirstie seems to have a food addiction.

  5. Lily | 13/01/10

    I feel bad for her; unless you have a body that really really craves food, you have no clue how hard it is to lose weight! Some people are better able to resist and have self control than others. It’s all in how our chemicals are working!

  6. spanktacular | 13/01/10

    i am rooting for her!

  7. Viola | 13/01/10

    I think she’s gorgeous. I don’t care about her weight, she has a great face.

  8. MScotton | 13/01/10

    She does look like she lost some.

  9. Caty | 13/01/10

    I don’t understand how people with all the access they want to trainers, dieticians, the best food etc can have these kind of weight problems..

  10. ms | 13/01/10

    It seems it is always much easier and faster to put on weight than it is to take the weight off. Hopefully she can continue to work towards a healthier weight and make lifestyle changes along the way that help her to maintain her weight in the long run.

  11. Diane | 13/01/10

    Meh–she looks like your stereotypical older mom in these pics. Showing her age but not obese.

    Overall, I would feel worse for her, but she’s the one who agreed to turn her weight into an ongoing national headline when she made Fat Actress and started shilling for Weight Watchers.

  12. mick27 | 13/01/10

    Good for her! I can’t imagine how hard it must be to constantly be focused on soley for your weight.

  13. Lucie | 13/01/10

    I also feel sad for her. I don’t know if she has lost weight but I

  14. Lucie | 13/01/10

    I also feel sad for her. I don’t know if she has lost weight but I hope one day she’ll be comfortable with her weight.

  15. chris | 13/01/10

    This woman is pretty much my childhood. She looks like she’s lost, and she looks a lot younger than 59!!

  16. Cossey | 13/01/10

    She is Mrs. Chow!

  17. ladyredlocks | 13/01/10

    It seems like if she focused on something other than her weight that made her happy, maybe she wouldn’t have such a hard time keeping it off.

  18. chaz | 13/01/10

    She really does have the most beautiful face at any weight! She’s lost some lbs. I hope she can find a place that she feels comfortable and can maintain. I follow her on twitter and it does appear that she does have a bit of a battle with food.

  19. Draccae | 13/01/10

    I feel bad for her but I can’t tell if she has lost any or not int hat dress.

  20. Londoncalling | 13/01/10

    She has a beautiful face, but she is big, and i think she will always be up and down with her weight, shame!

  21. Snowflake | 13/01/10

    I like her outfit, especially her jacket.

  22. Mel | 13/01/10

    This poor women will always struggle with her weight…

  23. Jade | 13/01/10

    I’ll always love Kirstie Alley. I’ve seen all the Look Who’s Talking movies a million times :-D . Hope she can lost soon weight and be happier with herself.

  24. dusk | 13/01/10

    The girl in the background looks like the girl from firefly.

  25. rightbackatyou | 13/01/10

    weight put aside..
    can you believe she is 59??! She hardly looks it.

  26. Name Required | 13/01/10

    I like her and hope she can some day be happy about her weight.

  27. sneaux | 13/01/10

    She was always such a pretty lady. I sure hope she can get the weight off and keep it off.

  28. Miss Jessie | 13/01/10

    @ Caty – I agree. Why not hire someone to stand around in the kitchen and holler “Put that block of butter DOWN now!”

  29. abby | 13/01/10

    she’s a pathetic disaster. honestly how could someone gain 80 lbs and not notice it?

  30. Sian | 13/01/10

    I think she could have at least run a brush through her hair on that special occasion.

  31. Maxx05 | 13/01/10

    She’s a scientologist, so I can’t respect her. She’s not running her own mind, she’s brainwashed. I agree with the person who said something to the effect of her needing to stop focusing on food so much, and she’d be more likely to drop weight. She obviously is always screaming for attention by announcing her diet plans. She really should stop stuffing herself and she’ll be more successful at losing weight.

  32. GS | 13/01/10

    I think she looks great for 59, she can easily pass as a 49…and yes she could lose a little more weight and look perfect.

  33. Rebecca | 13/01/10

    someone told me she was the megan fox of her day and i’m sorry but i just do not believe that

    anyways, i hope she gets herself together and gets down to a good weight. i do feel bad on how the media seems to make her their #1 weight target

  34. Mickey von Dutch | 14/01/10

    @Caty, I’m no expert on this subject, but as far as I know food issues are usually related to mental issues, the body comes second. So even though Alley may have all the help she needs, that is still no guarantee. Some people overeat to fill a hole in their heart or soul. Who knows what she experienced in her life? Being famous does not make her superhuman.

  35. justathought | 14/01/10

    @ CATY maybe she has a serious food ddiction. Addictions cant be cured by nutritionist and trainers. They are serious

    Although i dont feel bad for her after she bashed Valerie Bertinelli just becuase she lost weight and kristie gained. Then she went on about she would create her own “diet plan” where she would lose like forty pounds in two months (unhealhty) and she didnt lose the weight anyway.

  36. justathought | 14/01/10

    *food addiction

  37. shaden | 14/01/10

    now thats what i call fashion disaster!!
    but i still love her,my mother does to!!xD
    i hope she will loose some weight,becuase she is hot(when she was young and thin)

  38. Steven | 14/01/10

    Always a beautiful woman. Even in her most unflattering photographs, I think there is something about her. No matter what her weight, whether it be her old shape or when she was at her heaviest (which I preferred) she always looked great.

  39. Mrs. House | 14/01/10

    I’ve always thought she had a pretty face, but I think it’s sad that when you say Kirstie Alley you think about her weight issues. She’s no longer known for her acting… she hasn’t been known for her acting for quite some time now. All I wish for her is that she once and for all realizes that a balanced diet is the way to go and that she doesn’t have to look twenty. I mean, she’s almost 60… it seems that she’s always having trouble accepting her age… I wish her all the luck in the world!

  40. Katarzyna | 14/01/10

    Overweight or not, she’s an excellent actress and sure as hell doesn’t look like she’s 59 already!

  41. passerbee | 14/01/10

    i agree with Maxx05 !

  42. AW | 14/01/10

    she is a pretty woman and has always had such a great sense of humor. i hope she has a wonderful b-day.

  43. Matilda | 14/01/10

    Wow, I can’t believe she’s 59! She looks a lot younger.

  44. crab | 14/01/10

    I’ve always loved her hair!

  45. December Ann | 14/01/10

    I feel sorry for her that she went on Oprah and lost all that weight and wore a bikini and a year later she gained it all back plus some. Let this be a lesson to say… Kim K. and Khloe K. and all the other celebs who want to lose weight so publicly. It has to be extremely embarassing and emotionally draining to have all that public pressure to lose weight. Don’t lose weight for millions of people you dont’t even know or for money. Not worth it and no lasting results. Even Jared from Subway has gained again after all these years. It remains to be seen with Valerie Bertinelli. Hopefully she will keep it off.

  46. Tee | 14/01/10

    I agree with ladyredlocks!

  47. Supersonic1122 | 14/01/10

    Sticking pictures of skinny people on your fridge and in your car is healthy? IDK. Although, it’s good that she’s got a trainer and trying achieve her dream body that way rather than popping diet pills and whatnot!

  48. Supersonic1122 | 14/01/10

    @ Caty, I don’t think that’s fair. Sure, if you’re that rich you can speak to the best dieticians, your can work out with the best trainers and you can eat the most nutritious food, but at the end of it if a celeb gets a sugar craving at 11pm, they can get chauffer driven to a supermarket and buy unlimited amounts of candy. People who have a budget to stick to are going to stick less junk in their shopping carts than someone who’s super rich. There must also be a lot of temptation in terms of the food offered at all the exclusive parties, events and restaurants that they go to.

  49. Sarah | 14/01/10

    I agree that she does not look 59, I personally believe she looked her best in the film ‘It Takes Two’ released around 1995

  50. Teri | 14/01/10

    She is beautiful.
    She might not have lost any, but I always think she looks fabulous, independent of what weight she is, She dresses perfectly for her body.

  51. Josephine | 14/01/10

    hmm.. whatever her weight, she always seemed like a nice person to me.

  52. HANAN | 14/01/10

    she look so good for 59

  53. Ki.bot | 16/01/10

    I think she looks amazing for 59. She’s gorgeous no matter what

  54. yin | 16/01/10

    i like her lips

  55. Gia | 16/01/10

    woah she’s 59?! i thought she was younger than that. she looks great for her age :)

  56. TMcK | 20/01/10

    Wow! I had no idea she was turning 59. Folks need to get off her back, she looks great!
