Not sure if anyone cares or not, but I thought that this was interesting seeing as though I wanted to be here so bad when I was little... Look how much she has changed.

The Return of Kelly LeBrock


In the 1980s, model-turned-actress KELLY LeBROCK was the very definition of the term "sex symbol." Who else could have gotten away with saying "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful" in all those Pantene shampoo ads or successfully served as the embodiment of the perfect woman in the JOHN HUGHES comedy classic 'Weird Science'?

Now, after a brief self-imposed hiatus to raise her three children, the 'Woman in Red' star is coming back in a big way -- as a contestant on the next installment of the popular VH1 reality series "Celebrity Fit Club."

"I don't see anybody else offering me money to get back in shape, so I'll go out and have a good time," says Kelly about her decision to do the program. "It's going to be interesting to be out there and show all of America my weaknesses, but what the hey."

And for what may be a career-first for her, the still-comely Kelly was actually free to pack on the pounds prior to filming. "I was a little underweight for the show, so I kind of beefed up," she admits, adding with a laugh, "I got myself up pretty high, so I'm hoping I can tape my mouth shut because it's hard once you get rolling on a nice nutritiously fat food diet."

Regardless of the outcome, Kelly still has a lot on her proverbial plate. "I'm producing movies now," says the 45-year-old, who is the driving force behind three films, including 'The Redeeming Season,' which is based on a true story. "It's about a man and his special needs child and he has to go back into her life," she explains. "And you realize that through all the special needs children that the father is the one with all the handicaps."

But LeBrock lovers, fear not -- this brunette beauty will soon be strutting her stuff once again in front of the cameras as well. "I love doing movies and I think I have a few fans out there that would still like to see me," she says with a smile.

Having Steven Segal as a (ex) husband would drive me to over eat, too.

LOVE Weird Science--one of my favorite 80's movies!

"Gary, don't you feel like a chicken?
Wyatt, if I could shoot an egg out my ass right now, I would! Look we can deal with shame, death is a much deeper issue. "

Wierd Science is still one of my favorite movies....it is just so funny! And now, you watch it with all the big 80's hair and shoulder pads, it's even better.

Good for her for joining the "Celebrity Fit Club"; she is still gorgeous....

She does look different but still beautiful. She has wonderful facial bonestructure.

(I'd like it if she went back to brunette tho')

I think she sounds like a very grounded, mature woman. Good for her & good luck to her!

(oh yeah - I lurve me some Wierd Science)

I really like her. When I was younger I thought she was soooooo beautiful (still is IMO).

What sucks is that she is going on this show and they told her that she needed to pack on the pounds because she was too thin.
