Kelly Preston is such close friends with Kirstie Alley that Kirstie was actually present while Kelly gave birth to her youngest son Benjamin last year, and Kelly supported her buddy at the opening of her first Organic Liaison store on Wednesday, dishing about her newborn.

"Oh my gosh, he's so cute," said Kelly. "He gets cuter every single day."

Benjamin already shows signs that he's taking after his father John Travolta. Kelly called her little boy "a natural born flyer."

"He's had now -- because we just came here last night -- four flights already at three months old," said the actress. "He got up in the cockpit with Daddy a few times, too."

Kirstie, who referred to Kelly as "the quintessential mother," dished about her own "baby" - Organic Liaison.

"I tell people it's what's not in it that's good," said Kirstie. "It's the first USDA certified organic weight-loss product and it gives you incredible energy. I would never be able to do what I'm doing without this."

Currently, Kirstie is "doing" "Dancing with the Stars," competing on the reality show with her pro dance partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

"It's crazy hard," Kirstie said of "DWTS." "It's lunacy. It just takes so much energy and so much stamina."

Along with her demanding rehearsals, Kirstie is also busy losing weight. The new ballroom warrior has lost 60 pounds and hopes to drop another 30.

Kirstie expressed plenty of enthusiasm about working with her dancing partner so far, so could there be another romance brewing in the "Dancing" studio?

"[Kirstie] calls me Daddy," Maksim told us on Wednesday night.

Kirstie admitted, "He's fun," but the actress went on to clarify, calling their relationship "siblingesque."

Make sure to catch Kirstie and Maksim on the 12th season premiere of "Dancing with the Stars" on Monday, March 21 on ABC.
