Kirstie Alley Won't Shut Up About Being Fat
Last week Kirstie Alley went on Oprah to talk about It wasn’t the exact same M.O. My food demons are Chinese food, sugar, butter. A lot of butter. If I’m at the movies, usually I eat popcorn without butter, but I’d say, "I’m at the movies, so who cares?" And toast with butter. Or let’s say I had two cups of pasta and six tablespoons of butter on it. There was a lot of butter going on. (Source)
Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but I think if you love butter that much, you should just be with butter. After all, no one chooses to love butter, some people are just born loving butter. And if she gets back in that butter closet, she's only going to be lying to herself. Someday when the first butter marriage laws are passed, I bet she's going to look back on this day and have a good laugh.
As a guy with a weight problem, let me say that being 20 lbs over your ideal weight is one thing, and having an ass like a fucking park bench is another. Kristie's not a little girl to start with, and we can all love that about her -- but 83 pounds? It's like she swallowed a homeless child. Does she not walk anywhere? Not even to get the next stick of butter?
Think about this: 6 TABLESPOONS of butter is more than half a stick of butter. What the fuck? Have the red sauce, honey! The tomotoes will NOT kill you, but that exta roll of lard under your chin might.
... 83 lbs ... you have got to be kidding me.
This is a woman who has to be addicted to something, anything. Scientology helped her to get off blow and on to butter. Which is worse? Both will kill you. With blow, you die young and thin. With butter, oldish and fat. It's a lose-lose situation. And I agree with hater, how can you KNOWINGLY consume half a stick of butter? That's like butter soup.
Also, as others have pointed out, Kirstie's weight fluctuations are her cash cow. When she gains weight she gains attention (magazine covers, Oprah, etc.). When she loses weight she gains attention (magazine covers, Oprah, etc.).
