Reba McEntire and Kirstie Alley’s Fat Fight

Reba McEntire made a wise crack about all the fat foods at Toby Keith’s restaurants and that the menu sounded like a holiday meal at Kirstie Alley’s. Kirstie didn’t take the comments lightly, according to The Boot. She tweeted “thought we girls would stick together…next time you need a fat joke call me…mine are funny.” Badda Bing!
