Kirstie Alley must be making the world’s latest April Fool’s Day joke, claiming to have lost the weight of two Range Rovers in one season of Dancing With The Stars. The actress and reality star is one of the contestants on a show I’m thrilled to say I’ve never watched. I don’t even think I’ve ever seen a clip. It’s just another derivative reality show; the American version of the UK’s Strictly Come Dancing, which I’ve also been happily ignoring. Well, I guess at least three people who aren’t me watch the show and so she took breaks shilling for her $cientology-based diet plan to clumsily Foxtrot on primetime television. That’s the same logic that led her to reveal, earlier in the week, that she’d been starving herself in order to lose more weight. Now, she’s taking her lies a step further, claiming to have gone down several dress sizes. ‘I started out in a size 12, then an 8, and then I think next week I’ll be in a 6,’ the 60-year-old said after her performance Monday night. ‘The real size I want to be in is probably a 4 or a 6. That’s where I look best.’ Because the cake is a lie, she totally bluffed her starting size too, right? A size 12 is about a UK size 16 and there’s no way she was even that small. She was probably closer to our size 18. Now she looks, in recent pictures I’ve seen, closer to our 14. Which is still impressive, but, yeah, like I said. The cake. Below are the most recent pictures of Alley, to which I have access… her leaving Dancing With The Stars rehearsals on April 13. That’s one week ago. When, following her logic, she was an American size 8-10. I think.

Why does she have to lie about her weight? She looks good for 60. A very, very FAT 60.
Nice to see you again, Amy!
Welcome back! And, yes, I double-taked and checked her age before adding it from the source material.
Kirstie Alley isn’t being honest about her starting weight or what her current weight is. She is not anywhere near a size 6 nor will she be at that size by the time DWTS ends.
She’s a tall woman and I’m sure she had to be over 250lbs when this show started.
It’s great that she is losing lbs and she looks a lot better than she previously did – however be truthful about your weight claims – the eye doesn’t lie.
As an American who lives in the UK and has clothes from both sides of the proverbial pond, I feel uniquely qualified to “weigh” in on this. Kirstie Alley is delusional. She was AT LEAST an American 16, probably an 18 at the start of this. She is, at best and American 12, maybe a 10 if we’re talking muumuus now. Keep in mind, this woman in 5’8″ tall. She can carry a lot of weight on that frame, without looking as bad as someone shorter might. I think she’s starting to look really good again, but she will never be an American 6. She’d look sickly if she were.
I’ve studied most of the pictures here. She looks to be about the same size I am, maybe a size or a half-size less. I’m 5’10″ to 5’11″ tall. My pants are a (US) size 22, and tops are comfortable at 18-20. (I’ve always been wide-hipped, even at my slimmest.)
If Kirstie (whom I have always admired and girl-crushed on, btw) is 5’8″, I would gauge her size in these pics at around a US 16. Depending on the cut, fabric, and style, she might be able to work a 14, but probably not very comfortably.
Height does make a difference, as Shump mentioned – when I was at my slimmest, in the 130s, I looked emaciated and sick and was often asked if I was anorexic. My fashion-oriented friends guessed my size at a 0-2. The truth is, I never got any smaller than a US 8! I looked best in a size 14-16, which my shorter coworkers and friends consistently guessed as being about a size 6-8. (I’ve had to return a lot of too-small gifts of clothing in my life!)
If Kirstie is not delusional or outright lying about her clothes size, then she is either being sold clothes with vanity sizing, or she’s trying to adjust the numbers for her height. I can understand (and support) that impulse, but if that’s the case, she’s adjusted WAY too far.
Kristie is a beautiful funny woman who just forgot to add the one before the size 6.
Kirstie!!! Wake up and smell the krullers baby! You are SO not even close to a 6. I am your height and weigh over 200 lbs. and so do you honey…look at your thighs and your belly. You are shaped nicely but there is no way on God’s green earth that you will EVER be a size 6. Unless you eat only the green on God’s earth.
Listen, we all agree that Max is a hottie. When he fell is was because u leaned on him and his leg gave out. Face it sweetie, it was your fault. Max likes tall skinny blondes or short sexy dark blondes. You and he will always remain “good friends”. Happy dancing dahling!!!
I take offense to this!
I am 5’9″ and am typically a size 8, occasionally a 10 in dresses. There is no way this woman is a size 6 as she is at least three sizes larger than me.
Kristie, just be happy with what you’ve lost so far. No need to go throwing around your shrinking size figure, particularity when they’re not true! Her arm wouldn’t fit into size 6 pants.
I totally agree with you; there is no way in hell, that Kirstie Alley is currently a size 6!!! I once was a size 6 myself when I was in my mid twenties and I was a lot smaller than what she appears as on TV!!!. She is failing to realize, especially too since she is tall(5’11″) that her good weight should be around 150-170lbs(as well as depending on her bone frame; small, medium, large). A lot of HOLLYWOOD keeps denying this factor; Bone structure to height wise in order to calculate a more healthier weight for a person to be in as too a range where a lot more people don’t look sickly thin(as so many of them do!).
LOL…..she’s KIDDING!!!!! You people are way too obsessed with your own importance….importance being your size!
Even recent photos of her show her looking closer to a 14, not a 4/6. I’m the same height, a 2/3 with hardly an ounce of fat anywhere. And she claims to be just 2 sizes larger? BS.
If Kirstie really wants to drop pounds her next endeavor ought to be a marathon.
