A&E presents Kirstie Alley's Big Life, a new real-life series that will chronicle the extraordinary life of Golden Globe and two-time Emmy winner Kirstie Alley from her journey with her weight loss program to her life as a single mother trying to raise two normal teenagers in the Hollywood spotlight. The series premieres Sunday, March 21 at 10PM ET/PT with back-to-back episodes.

Many people remember Kirstie as a Romulan-Vulcan officer in Star Trek II, a sexy Emmy-winner as Rebecca Howe in "Cheers," the star of blockbuster films Look Who's Talking and Drop Dead Gorgeous and of course, for her star turns in "Veronica's Closet" and "Fat Actress." For three decades Kirstie has been making headlines and staying in the forefront of the American conscience. Now, she's granting her fans unprecedented access inside her life...and what a life it is. "This show has been cathartic for me...shown me who I really am...again," says Alley, "And it's really freaking funny."

One major theme in the series will be chronicling Kirstie's comedic and unique take on her battle with weight loss, which coincides with the launch of her new weight loss company. She's also producing a feature film, patenting multiple inventions, working hard to raise two normal Hollywood teenagers, True and Lillie, taking care of eight ringtail lemurs, and on top of everything, looking for love...nothing like a little pressure.

This week in pop culture and law clearly belongs to Dr. Conrad Murray. Is he or isn't he guilty? Is he in LA to surrender to police or just to visit his baby mama? Will he be arrested or arraigned? The answers to these questions seemed to change by the second this week and, of course, that made it all the more fun. So, let's just list the top five reasons why the DA's office has no choice but to charge him with involuntary manslaughter: (1) he administered Propofol to Michael Jackson; (2) not one expert has come forward to say that Propofol is OK to administer in a home setting; (3) the L.A. Coroner concluded that the cause of Michael Jackson's death was "acute Propofol intoxication;" (4) Michael Jackson died, even though his autopsy says he was a healthy man; and (5) doctors are not supposed to give patients medicine just because they request it and/or pay top dollar. Have a great weekend, Popbytes peeps. Remember, don't drink (alcohol or Propofol) and drive.

† FROM DJ PAUL V.
Now that the dust has settled from the Grammy Awards, I think we can all agree: most of the awards are a total joke (or worse, a complete embarrassment). Lady Gaga was robbed of many she deserved, Jamie Foxx needs to stop singing period and Taylor Swift - who I can admire for her young talent and knack for banal pop songs - owes Stevie Nicks an in-key apology! But having said that, some of the other performances completely wowed me! So I'm gonna throw some props to Beyoncé, 'cuz girlfriend turned it OUT on stage. And when I discovered this new mashup featuring an 80's gem - A-Ha's Take On Me and Mrs. Hova's Halo, I knew it would be perfect this week. The French bootleggers continue their winning streak, this time courtesy of Mighty Mike - and a mighty fine mash this is!
