NEW MOVIE: BURLESQUE [CHER & CHRISTINA AGUILERA]

Burlesque stars Christina Aguilera as a small-town girl who ventures to Los Angeles and finds her place in a neo-burlesque club run by a former dancer [Cher]. This movie marks Cher's return to movies (last movie Stuck On You in 2003) and shows off Christina doing what she does best - singing. The movie seems to be a good mix of Chicago and Moulin Rouge  and the trailer is definitely high energy and attention grabbing.

The Burlesque Lounge has its best days behind it. Tess, a retired dancer and owner of the venue, struggles to keep the aging theater alive, facing all kinds of financial and artistic challenges. With the Lounge's troupe members becoming increasingly distracted by personal problems and a threat coming from a wealthy businessman's quest to buy the spot from Tess, the good fortune seems to have abandoned the club altogether. Meanwhile, the life of Ali, a small-town girl from Iowa, is about to change dramatically. Hired by Tess as a waitress at the Lounge, Ali escapes a hollow past and quickly falls in love with the art of burlesque. Backed by newfound friends amongst the theater's crew, she manages to fulfill her dreams of being on stage herself. Things take a dramatic turn though when Ali's big voice makes her become the main attraction of the revue.
