LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Ricki Lake knows a thing or two about getting in shape, but even she was impressed by Valerie Bertinelli 's recent bikini photos on the cover of People magazine.

"She looks sick," Ricki told Access Hollywood on Tuesday. "I mean, man, she showed me up, didn't she?"

Valerie, 48, showed off her new figure on the April 6 cover of People after losing almost 50 pounds.

"She looks great," Ricki continued. "She looks a lot better than I would look in a bikini."

But would Ricki follow Valerie's lead and pose for her own bikini photo shoot?

"I don't wear bikinis. Trust me, nobody wants me in a bikini," she said. "But I do naked pretty well. Everyone will just have to use their imagination on that one."

    Valerie always looks beautiful thin or not! I adore Ricki as well and she has come a long way. I am heavy and look at them and think maybe I can do it too!

    I think this whole fat and skinny is getting old. Hello people! I hate seeing twigs on everything I look at. It makes young girls feel insecure and even older woman. I always thought thats what you had to look like. I lost alot of weight from a 7 to a 3. I finally opened my eyes and said I'm pretty with a little jelly on me. I'm in a size 6 and feel healthy! don't lose..ton

    I thought she looked good, but it didn't necessarily need to be on the cover. She does enough advertising for Jenny Craig, I see her enough on the TV. I threw out the copy that was in the waiting room of the doctor's office I work for. None of my patients need to see THAT much Valerie, even though there's a lot less Valerie.
