Variety is reporting that Cher and Christina Aguilera are set to star in Burlesque:
"In what will be her first movie star role in a decade, Cher is set to join Christina Aguilera in 'Burlesque,' a contemporary musical for Screen Gems. Steven Antin will direct from a script he wrote that was revised by Susannah Grant. Aguilera will play an ambitious small-town Iowa girl with a big voice who comes of age in a neo-burlesque club on Sunset Boulevard that’s run by Tess (Cher), a former dancer who struggles to keep the club open and gives the young girl a chance to shine. Cher will sing onscreen. While her voice has been heard in many films, 'Burlesque' will mark the first time she’ll be seen singing in a film she stars in. Cher last starred in 'Tea With Mussolini' in 1999."
Basically Glitter meets Showgirls. As much as I am a HUGE fan of tha latter, everyone better get ready. Burlesque is going to be the biggest mess of 2010 and I can't wait!
