Kirstie Alley has signed a deal with A&E to star in her own reality show.
According to People.com, they will follow her as she struggles to lose weight and raise her two teenagers.
A&E describes the show as showing Alley “producing a feature film, patenting multiple inventions, working hard to raise two normal Hollywood teenagers, taking care of eight ringtail lemurs and, on top of everything, looking for love.”
“Kirstie is exactly the kind of star A&E is drawn to. She is a multifaceted talent who connects with our audience on so many levels. Her personal life has been playing out in the media for years, but this will be the first time she’ll be opening up her home to reveal her real life for the cameras,” According to A&E senior vice president for nonfiction and alternative programming, Robert Sharenow:
In 2005 Alley started in a scripted show title “Fat Actress.”
The actress who was a Jenny Craig spokesperson for three years, where she lost 75 lbs, is perhaps best know for her role as Rebecca Howe on the sitcom “Cheers.”
