Love It! This will be fun to watch over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend – somewhere between the dinner, shopping, and football games.

Ali meets Marcus (Eric Dane), a charming, successful businessman who offers to buy Tess (Cher) out of the burlesque club and vies for Ali’s heart.

A Sneak-Peek At Cher & Aguilera In BURLESQUE

Susan Wloszczyna of USA Today has the first photos from Sony/Screen Gems upcoming BURLESQUE due in theaters November 24, 2010. The musical stars Cher, in her first major role in over a decade, Christina Aguilera, Eric Dane,Cam Gigandet, Julianne Hough, Peter Gallagher, Alan Cumming with Kristen Bell and Stanley Tucci. The thought of seeing Cher back on the big screen after all these years makes me giddy. And together with Stanley Tucci makes me downright delirious!

Directed by Steve Antin and from a script by Antin, Susannah Grant (THE SOLOIST), and Keith Merryman, BURLESQUE centers on Ali, an ambitious small-town girl with a big-town voice (Aguilera) who finds love, family and success in a neo-burlesque club. Ali meets Marcus, a charming, successful businessman who offers to buy Tess (Cher) out of the burlesque club and vies for Ali’s heart.

Nolan prefers Cher for Catwoman?

Oh boy, here we go. I really can’t say that I believe this, but it is coming from a somewhat reputable choice. According to British news source telegraph.co.uk, Christopher Nolan’s first choice to play Catwoman in the next Batman film is the 62-year-old pop singer Cher. Whoa! Seriously? I mean, we all were surprised when we heard Ledger was cast as The Joker and then ate our words, but Cher? Is this going too far?

[The Oscar-winner will join a cast that includes Johnny Depp as The Riddler as she plays the whip-carrying burglar. The character has also been played by Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry.] — Telegraph
