'Dancing with the Stars': Kirstie Alley's totally hot cha cha cha

dwts-kirstie-rehearse.jpgKirstie Alley has been talking up her "Dancing with the Stars" game for days on Twitter. But did she live up to her own hype? In a word: yes.

The 60-year-old actress and 24/7 tweeter, who confessed to being "like, a 'Dancing with the Stars' ho," showed off some serious moves with partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy. The pair dance a hot cha cha cha to song of the moment, Cee-Lo Green's "Forget You."

With fellow Scientologist Kelly Preston in the audience cheering her on, Alley got the crowd totally worked up with her moves. Judge Bruno Tonioli praised Alley for her work, saying her "foot placement in cha cha cha was best of the night."

Against every instinct, we concur. Not only did Alley nail the moves, but her personality -- of which she has an ample portion -- came through loud and clear.

As judge Len Goodman said, "It made me feel good." Us, too.



What do you think? Was Kirstie Alley's the surprise performance of the season opener?

Kirsty Alley was incredible! She showed the world that u don't have to only be young & thin to be sexy, beautiful, talented & show some serious dance moves that made the crowd cheer!!! I loved her on Cheers & I love her even more now!!!!

She was awesome and she looks great.

Kirstie was fantastic. She not only nailed the routine, but she had fun! Kudos. Maksim, of course, was a perfect partner.

Surprised the hell out of me! You go girl!

She surprised everyone. She was quick, light on her feet, her moves were tight. If anyone can make her a queen on the dance floor, it's Maks. He always takes the one you least expect (Laila Ali) and makes them fabulous.

I sure didn't think Kirstie Alley was 60. And her dancing was great. Same for Ralph Macchio (and I can't believe he is 49!)

Iwas surprised by kirstie's performance. she was in step and showed good coordination. Go girl for all the 60 year olds. You may win this season if you keep the momentum going. After all, after Mel B and Brandy ABC owes maks BIGTIME.

VERY impressed by Kirstie and Ralph tonight. I hope they both keep it up!

yay kirstie!!

suprised and very impressed with kirstie's performance. it goes to show that all you need is confidence. Screw the media!
