Kirstie Alley-A Charitable and Ballsy Bomb

Kirstie Alley is one of my favorite celebrities. That is because she is so uninhibited and unafraid of what people think. She made a fortune promoting weight loss by offering herself as a joke about being overweight. By making a target of herself she made a bundle promoting weight loss for Jenny Craig who she is no longer connected to. She formed "Organic Liaison" in 2010 with many experts in nutrition and weight loss. She offers "The Complete Weight Loss Solution" which includes "The Premium Rescue Me Kit" which provides products and information to the buyers for $139.00. Check her website below for complete information. What I like the most about her though is her ballsy approach to life.  People relate to her because she can put herself in their shoes so easily.

Martha Stewart Living

Martha Stewart has always fascinated me. She was born in Jersey City, New J and when she was 10 years old she started working by babysitting for Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra and some of the New Your Yankees.She then started to model when she was 13 and was in television and magazine ads. remember Tareyton cigarettes famous ad "I'd rather fight then switch". She was part of that ad. In 1990 Martha Stewart signed with Time Publishing Ventures to develop a magazine called Martha Stewart Living and the circulation rose to over 2 million copies per issue.. Then, in 1997 she purchased the rights related to her brand and put them all under the umbrellas Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. One could write about her for years but suffice it to say that New York Magazine was right when they named her the "Definitive American Woman of our Time. Good job Martha.
