Resurfaced video of Kirstie Alley revealing the SHOCKING outfits her parents were wearing the night her mom was killed in car crash leaves the internet flabbergasted: ‘Why would you EVER admit this?’

A bizarre video of Kirstie Alley revealing the wild outfits her parents were wearing during a fatal car crash has gone viral.

The clip of the late star resurfaced this week on X, formerly Twitter, as she discussed the tragic incident that saw a drunk driver kill her mother and seriously injure her father during a collision in 1981.

The couple had been on their to a Halloween party at the time and viewers were left stunned when Kirstie revealed their outfits of choice. 

The clip was uploaded alongside a caption that read: ‘I could give you 1,000 tries to guess and you wouldn’t get it right.’

In the clip, which resurfaced earlier this week, Kirstie can be seen mid interview with Barbara Walters as she discusses arriving at the hospital following the tragic crash.

‘We were all sitting in this waiting room and we were sobbing and as I’m crying my sister was there and I wasn’t looking at her but I said, “Where were they going?”

‘And she said, “To a Halloween party.” And I said, “What were they dressed as?” Why would you ask this?’ Kirstie reflected in an exasperated tone. 

Kirstie’s sister told her that their parents had been dressed as ‘the odd couple’ but after struggling to piece it together she probed further for more precise detail.

‘I asked, “What were their costumes exactly?” And she said: “Mom was a black girl and dad was a Ku Klux Klan member.”‘

The famed actress chuckled and put her hands to her head as she continued: ‘We started laughing and the whole family I guess had heard this conversation and we all started laughing.

‘And it was the greatest tribute that you could give my mother.’

The clip was flooded with comments as viewers rushed to share their thoughts.

One wrote: ‘WHY WOULD YOU EVER ADMIT THIS?’

Another added: ‘”My mom died doing blackface” is a hell of a thing to say on network TV.’

And a third quipped: ‘”We were going to a Halloween party” is a great way to get out of trouble if someone sees you dressing this way.’

Kirstie, who succumbed to colon cancer aged 71 in 2022, had refused to meet with the drunk driver in the years that followed.

Cherrie White, now living in Arlington, Texas, had tried to reach out to the Cheers star in 2019 to beg for forgiveness but Kirstie refused to meet with her, RadarOnline previously revealed.

Kirstie had just moved to Los Angeles in 1981 and was preparing for her final audition for the role of Lt. Saavik in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan when she received a phone call from sister Colette that their parents were in a fatal crash.

That is how she learned her mother, Lillian Maxine Alley, nicknamed ‘Mickie,’ was thrown from their vehicle and her father, Robert Alley, was in critical condition with chest injuries after White — then known as Cherie Glymph — crashed into their car.

Colette told her: ‘Mom is dead and dad is dying. You need to come home,’ Kirstie wrote in her 2005 memoir titled How to Lose Your A** and Regain Your Life: Reluctant Confessions of a Big-butted Star.

Cherrie was just 27-years-old at the time and was working at the Boeing aircraft plant in Kirstie’s hometown of Wichita, Kansas, amid a messy divorce.

She said she decided to go for a few drinks on her way home from work the night of October 23, 1981, when she swerved into the Alleys’ car along I-135.

‘I wish sometimes that the woman that killed my mother that night… had known about my mother’s costume, because maybe she, too, would know that my mother was a pretty funny person,’ Kirstie wrote in her memoir.

According to court records, Cherrie pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of vehicular homicide and was sentenced to one year in county jail and rehab – but Kirstie tweeted last year that she only spent three months behind bars before being released.

Cherrie then tried reaching out to Kirstie in 2019 but the famous actress had refused to meet.

‘I can understand why Kirstie doesn’t want to talk to me,’ Cherrie, who has since retired, told the National Enquirer at the time.

‘But if she changed her mind, I would tell Kirstie and her father how truly sorry I am for what happened that night and the pain that I caused them.’

Cherrie, now a grandmother and mother of three, had earlier opened up about the devastating crash in 2011, admitting to the Enquirer: ‘I shouldn’t have been driving that night. I had a lot of things on my mind and I was intoxicated.

‘I was going through a divorce. I stopped by a local club to get something to eat and I had a few drinks.’

She said both she and Robert Alley were trying to avoid an accident involving other cars when they collided.

‘I was told later that the other car spun out and rolled over several times, ejecting the female passenger,’ she said, noting she ‘blacked out.’

‘When I came to, I saw a woman’s body on the side of the road covered in a sheet,’ Cherrie recounted. ‘Then I saw paramedics working on the man.

‘I was told later that the female passenger had died and the male driver was taken to the hospital in critical condition,’ she continued. ‘But I never knew the name of  the woman I killed. The authorities never told me the victims’ names because the driver was still in the hospital and they couldn’t release his name.

‘For 30 years, I’ve carried the burden of not knowing who I killed,’ she said. 

She later wrote a letter to the anonymous survivor of the crash, Robert, as part of her rehab — but never sent it.
