Book Description
Dear Diary,
Decided to write book today.
Thought am good writer, am smart gal, have interesting sex-filled (lie) life.
Thought can write about men, life, love, family, food, sex, and fat assedness.
Thought can share stories with tiny-butted and big-butted alike.
Can tell people why fat, why (was) cokehead, why traffic jams and herbal laxatives don’t mix, and why suede pants and sprinklers have same rule.
Can show smarts and ingenuity…(Note to self: should seek patent on ideas for multiple uses of triple-x elastic-waisted pants, and negotiate with airlines on new seating classes invented by self.)
More important…can show world how life is beautiful and funny, no matter size of butt.

 
There was once a girl named Kirstie Lou.
She dreamed that one day she would be a huge star. So she worked hard to achieve her dream--never suspecting just how huge she would one day become.
This is the story of her Tiny-Butted then Big-Butted then Tiny-Butted life...with true tales of men, mischief, loss, cocaine, suede pants, religion, chicken and noodles and family, all thrown into the pie.
Buon Apetito!

FROM THE PUBLISHER

She captured our hearts with her award-winning performances on screen. Now Kirstie Alley is poised to do it again as she laughingly explores our American obsession with fat, food, love, sex, beauty, and weight loss.

If anyone in Hollywood knows about weight obsession, it's Kirstie Alley. After she rose to fame on Cheers as the svelte and gorgeous Rebecca Howe, she watched as the tabloids mercilessly chartered her fluctuating weight. Well, look out, Hollywood, because this beloved star is ready to strike back - with a starring role in a new, unscripted comedy series on Showtime calle Fat Actress. She plays a fictionalized version of herself as she searches for work and love in the land of glitter and glamour. The show, which promted a huge media buzz when Showtime announced plans for it, premieres just as this witty and wry new book hits bookstores across the nation.
