Which Hair Color Do You Prefer on Alexandra Breckenridge?
Well well well, it looks like I've discovered that the hair color on this ladder-climbing Miss Thang on Dirt isn't natural after all. Alexandra Breckenridge (aka Willa McPherson) is actually a brunette, not a blonde. Now that we've dished the dirt on Alexandra's hair color, vote below on which shade you like best.
TV Tonight: Dirt
As has now been pretty well documented, I didn't make it all the way through the first season of Dirt. That's the bad news. The good news is, when I say I really enjoyed the first episode of the new season, it really means something.
Things Are About to Get Dirty
Courteney Cox has been all over promoting the second season of Dirt lately, and last night she had some help from her friends and her man. David Arquette, Helen Hunt, and David Spade were all in the house for the season premiere in LA. We can't wait for the first episode to air this Sunday, and if you're big fans of Lucy Spiller like we are, be sure to check out Buzz's interview with Courteney for enough juicy tidbits to hold you over through the weekend.
Courteney Cox Dishes Dirt on Dirt
Dirt, the FX series starring Courteney Cox as a tough-talking tabloid editor, returns Sunday for its second season. I've already admitted I wasn't a huge fan of the show in its first season, but having checked out the way this season starts, Dirt may have gotten me back. The show seems lighter this year, with more self-contained plots and a few intriguing new characters.
First Look: Dirt's Second Season
Lucy Spiller is back and more ruthless than ever when Dirt returns March 2 for its second season. This time around, the show is pushing hard on the celebrity scandal angle, with each episode focusing on a story ripped directly from the tabloid headlines. (I'm pretty sure one of them's Britney Spears — just sayin'.)
I think it's interesting to see Dirt moving in that direction when there are so many ripped-from-the-headlines shows already, from the Access Hollywood-style news shows to True Hollywood Story to even Law & Order and CSI (remember L&O's take on Anna Nicole Smith?).
Courteney & Coco's Lunch Break
Courteney Cox was back to work on the set of Dirt yesterday, but she managed to make time for the important things in life — food and family. Coco stopped by for a little lunch wearing her cute girlie pink dress. We still can't believe how big she is getting!

Review: Dirt Texturizing Paste by Jonathan Product
The first thing you need to know about Dirt Texturizing Paste by Jonathan Product is that it doesn't make your hair look dirty — or even like it has product in it. I say this because when I mentioned Dirt ($26) in a recent post, some readers were wary of what stylist Jonathan Antin says about the product: "There's something amazing about the way hair looks and behaves the day after — washing that is."
But do not be frightened: Dirt is, hands down, one of the most wonderful styling products I've ever had the pleasure of dipping my fingers into.
