Stanley Tucci will star with Cher and Christina Aguilera in musical film Burlesque, Variety reports. Aguilera plays a small-town singer who tries to make it big in a Cabaret-style club run by Tucci. Cher plays the club owner’s best friend, a former dancer who mentors the young girl. Steve Antin will direct the project, which starts shooting Nov. 9 for a Thanksgiving 2010 release.

Excellent, can’t wait to see Christina Aguilera star in a musical!
I just keep getting more excited about this project!
It will be good to see Cher back on the silver screen..even if its in what looks like a campy fun movie
Let’s hope it is fun because it is good, and not fun because it is bad.
Am I the only one that thinks Stanley Tucci is kind of hot.
No, it’s not just you. He was a sexy teddy bear in Julie & Julia.
He is SO hot. The hottest bald man since Yul Brenner. And even if this movies sucks, I still believe he can do no wrong.
Cant wait to see it.
FINALLY Showgirls and Crossroads are having a love child: Burlesque.
