The original movie, To Be Fat Like Me, premiers on Lifetime TV this Monday January 8, 2007. 17-year-old Aly decides to don a fat suit and experience life as a “fat” person.
The film stars Kaley Cuoco of 8 Simple Rules and Caroline Rhea of The Biggest Loser. Inspired by a real story, the outline looks very interesting.
The “real” girl who inspired the story is Ali Schmidt. She went undercover in a fat suit for an ABC documentary of obesity.
It airs on Monday January 8, 2007 at 9pm et/pt. View www.lifetimetv.com for more details.
I won’t be able to watch it but I’d love to hear some feedback on it. State your opinion on the discussion boards.
