Kristen Bell will be on Craig Ferguson tomorrow (Wed. Feb 10). Check it out and you will see Kristen's charm, wit, and sex appeal. All the qualities desired for the Burlesque Lounge.

Christina's Hollywood Hills Home

Cher just auctioned off her Hawaiian home (see posts of such below). Now it's Christina turn to flip a house. She has this Hollywood Hills Home above the Sunset Strip on the market for a cool $6.25 million. Don't fret though, for Christina already has another adobe down the street. She is living in the former Ozzy Osbourne residence. We believe she didn't want the newborn around the pool.

A Brief Synopsis

Here is a short inside bit on story of Burlesque.

Christina Aguiliera makes her dramatic feature debut as Ali, a small town singer who takes her shot at stardom performing at a neo-burlesque nightclub in Los Angeles. Situated in a regal old theater that's still dazzling despite having fallen into disrepair. The Burlesque Lounge is the kind of club where legends are born. When club owner Tess (Cher) hires charasmatic Ali as a cocktail waitress, the ambitous big-city newcomer goes to great lengths to make a good impression. Taken under the wing of a friendly featured dancer (Julianne Hough). Ali quickly realizes that not everyone is quite as nice when she forms a friendship with bartender/aspiring musician Jack (Cam Gigandet) and incurs the wrath of the club's cattiest showgirl (Kristen Bell). After making her leap to the stage with a little help from a sympathetic stage manager (Stanley Tucci) and the club's playfully adrogynous host (Alan Cumming). Ali becomes the star attraction at the Bulesque Lounge and the crowds start packing in. Later, a wealthy businessman (Eric Dane) makes a bid for the club while to trying to charm the talented young performer straight into his arms.

Eric Dane- Grey's Anatomy star in Burlesque

You will see much of Eric in Burlesque. Eric portrays a succesful businessman (Marcus) who tries to buyout the club from Tess (Cher). Eric can be seen currently on the big screen with Kristen Bell, another Burlesque star, in the movie When in Rome

Cam Gigandet-Out On The Town With Toddler

Cam was seen Tuesday strolling through Beverly Hills with his toddler daughter in tow. Great to see some father/daughter bonding.

Officail Movie Poster

Here is the official movie poster for the movie Burlesque. Along with this is some pics of Cam and Christina on location.

Juliane Hough

Dancing with the Stars pro Julianne Hough is part of the all-star lineup in the movie Burlesque. She has already commited to the remake of Footloose, and soon will be seen on the big screen as part of the cast of Burlesque. She is not only a succesfull professional dancer, but a top of charts country singer. Her self titled debut album hit first place in the County category in May of 2008.

This is quite an accomplishment to have a hit album, and be a regular on a highly rated television in different capacities. Julianne is 22, so we have plenty of future projects to look forward.

Alan Cumming - much more than a Tony winner

Alan Cumming will play the Emcee of the club in Burlesque. A role similar to his Tony Award role in the revival of Cabaret on Broadway in 1998. Alan has numerous stage, television, film, and author (yes, a published author) credits to his name. Being of the Scottish heritage, he has graced many of stage in his homeland, and the London arenas. He would be considered the most seasoned stage performer of the entire cast, and it is only fitting that his role calls for him to be on stage in a film. It is apparant that adding Alan Cumming to the cast, adds diversity and an edgy element. We look forward to seeing Alan shine once again.

Check out Cumming's long list of appearance on Wikipedia. We were IMPRESSED!

Spotlight- One of 13 musical numbers

Check out Spotlight, of thirteen big numbers in the movie. Whether this was leaked intentionally or slipped under the radar is undetermined, but enjoy the preview while you can.

Kristen Bell - More Eye Candy

Burlesque is proving to be lined with beauties. Kristen Bell, who plays Nikki is another member of this eye appealing cast. Kristen has numerous credits to her name, but is taking on this role to add an edgy componet to her overall range. We look forward to seeing this babe on the big screen.

Cam Gigandet

You will see Cam Gigandet in the movie. He is a hot, hot, hot commodity. Though already experiened on the big screen and the small one too, he shot to huge notoriety in Twilight. His handlers have capitalized on this and as of today he has fourteen gigs currently in production or development. He seems to have that universal appeal....as well as Warner Bros, Columbia, Paramount and numerous others.

We look forward to seeing him in the Burlesque in the role of Jack.
