Courtney Cox’s Dirt has been cancelled

With the second series currently running in the UK, I’ve just found out that Dirt has been cancelled.

I actually tried watching a couple of episodes and really couldn’t get into the show at all. Part of it was Courtney Cox - I just can’t warm to her as an actress. The other part was the celebrity magazine underworld - the lengths they’d go to to get a story - can you imagine if Heat magazine was run this way? With Dirt, I did come away feeling slightly dirty.

Dirt - Blogan

Oh, the dirty world of celebrity gossip! Or should that be drrty world?

I’ll confess to having a cursory look at tonight’s episode of Dirt, out of curiosity more than anything else. I was blogging at the same time, so I wasn’t paying full attention, but the gist of the storyline was as follows:

  • Courtney Cox’s character heads up this sleazy celeb magazine, looking for the scoop on various celebrities.
  • Tonight’s celebrity scoop was a pregnant celebrity who they discovered wasn’t actually pregnant - the couple were using a surrogate to prevent nasty stretch marks and stuff like that.
  • Cox’s character seemed to be masturbating in just about every other scene, for whatever reason. In between suffocating some needy rock star between her thighs. Wonder what was he doing down there anyway ;)
  • She ropes in some photographer with severe mental problems who’s hallucinating a relationship with a dead celebrity and showing pictures of her to a bizarre cat shrine. I know somebody else like that….

I have to say, from the parts I saw, Cox’s character was truly horrible. Dirt is the operative word, because watching some of her techniques really made me feel dirty. You’ve got to wonder how much this mirrors the real life gossip columnists. It certainly blows away the image that the Heat magazine staffers try to present!

Anyway peeps, let me know if I missed anything in my short-but-sweet rundown of tonight’s episode!

Courtney Cox Relates To ‘Bad’ Dirt Character!

Tags: ,

Courtney Cox has revealed that she can easily relate to her ‘bad’ character, Lucy, in her new show, Dirt.

Courteney said: “I love that she is outrageous. You want her to be bad.

“Her justification is that she needs to know the truth - she wants to get answers. I can relate to that. I like the truth too - my favourite word is integrity. It’s so important to me. I think that’s how I relate to Lucy.”
