In what will be her first movie star role in a decade, Cher is set to join Christina Aguilera in "
Burlesque," a contemporary musical for Screen Gems.
Aguilera will play an ambitious small-town Iowa girl with a big voice who comes of age in a neo-burlesque club on Sunset Boulevard that's run by Tess (Cher), a former dancer who struggles to keep the club open and gives the young girl a chance to shine.
