Second Burlesque Trailer

Burlesque sees Christina Aguilera make her big screen debut later this year as she teams up with Cher and Stanley Tucci.

Ali (Christina Aguilera) is a small-town girl with a big voice who escapes hardship and an uncertain future to follow her dreams to LA.

After stumbling upon The Burlesque Lounge, a majestic but ailing theater that is home to an inspired musical revue, Ali lands a job as a cocktail waitress from Tess (Cher), the club’s proprietor and headliner.

Burlesque’s outrageous costumes and bold choreography enrapture the young ingenue, who vows to perform there one day.

Soon enough, Ali builds a friendship with a featured dancer (Julianne Hough), finds an enemy in a troubled, jealous performer (Kristen Bell), and garners the affection of Jack (Cam Gigandet), a bartender and fellow musician.

With the help of a sharp-witted stage manager (Stanley Tucci) and gender-bending host (Alan Cumming), Ali makes her way from the bar to the stage.

Her spectacular voice restores The Burlesque Lounge to its former glory, though not before a charismatic entrepreneur (Eric Dane) arrives with an enticing proposal…

Burlesque is released 17th December and here is the second trailer for the movie:

Burlesque Images

Cher teams up with Christina Aguilera for new movie Burlesque, which is released at the end of the year.

The Burlesque Lounge has its best days behind it. Tess, a retired dancer and owner of the venue, struggles to keep the aging theater alive, facing all kinds of financial and artistic challenges.

With the Lounge’s troupe members becoming increasingly distracted by personal problems and a threat coming from a wealthy businessman’s quest to buy the spot from Tess, the good fortune seems to have abandoned the club altogether.

Meanwhile, the life of Ali, a small-town girl from Iowa, is about to change dramatically. Hired by Tess as a waitress at the Lounge, Ali escapes a hollow past and quickly falls in love with the art of burlesque.

Backed by newfound friends amongst the theater’s crew, she manages to fulfill her dreams of being on stage herself. Things take a dramatic turn though when Ali’s big voice makes her become the main attraction of the revue.

Take a look at the first images from the movie:

Ruth’s Saturday Sauce

Paul McCartney is a lovely chap isn’t he? So whilst he might be over what that old toad did to him, we are definitely not. So when I heard he’d opened up about his divorce from the one-legged wonder, I have to have a butchers.

The New Year is quickly approaching and it’s time to look back over some of the best movies of the year. Today with kick off with teen gem Nick And Norah’s Infinite Playlist, if you haven’t seen this it’s really worth a watch!

Stanley Tucci may be a seasoned actor but he struggled with his latest role in The Lovely Bones. He takes on the role of child killer George Harvey but being a father himself he found the whole experience difficult. Er Stan did you not read the script or book?
