WEIGHTY QUESTIONS KEEP 'ALLY' FROM 'TODAY' SHOW


Calista Flockhart backed out of a long-scheduled
interview with NBC's "Today" show when its producers
refused a request not to talk about her weight.

      The ultra-thin star of Fox's "Ally McBeal" has denied
rumors that she has an eating disorder. "We never agree to
restrictions on interviews," "Today" show spokeswoman
Allison Gollust said.

      Flockhart had been booked to appear Monday to
promote her new movie. She also has appearances planned
on CBS's "Late Show" with David Letterman and on "The
Rosie O'Donnell Show."

      Those programs have agreed not to talk about her
weight, said Flockhart's publicist, Pat Kingsley.
