Courteney Cox dishing Dirt on Spears

FRIENDS star Courteney Cox wants to dish the Dirt on Britney Spears - and use the pop wreck for a subject on her hit show.

She won't use the real Toxic singer, but hopes to take advantage of her whirlwind behaviour for a storyline on the second series.

Britney would be the perfect candidate to feature on the satire about the celeb magazine world, reports Star magazine.

"Courteney can’t wait to give the Britney character a major smack-down on camera,� said an insider.

"Being a parent herself, Courteney is disheartened by the way Britney has treated her own kids."

But Courteney's best pal Jennifer Aniston feels sorry for the former pop princess, saying: "It's just awful.

"I can't believe Britney's children were taken away from their mother. I feel so sorry for her."

Courteney Cox as celeb fans

Little Twig is a favorite of many a celebrity child. These great, organic, non-irritating products that smell amazing (well, the scented ones, of course) and work wonderfully. The products are developed with the advice of pediatricians and parents.
We tested out their baby wash, bubble bath, shampoo and diaper balm. Their Baby Wash ($10.50 for 8.5 oz) was heavenly! It comes in Lavender, Tangerine and Extra Mild/Unscented. We tested out the Extra Mild/Unscented Baby Wash, as my toddler's skin has been very sensitive lately. It got him super clean and didn't irritate his skin. Also, a little of it went a long way. It contains aloe vera, jojoba, and vitamin E. It's also nut, soy and wheat free. What kid doesn't love Bubble Bath? Little Twig's Bubble Bath ($17.95 for 17 oz) comes in Lavender, Tangerine and the Extra Mild/Unscented. We chose to test that one. Ben loved playing in the bubbles (we've only used the bubble bath finger paints with him before, so he was astonished when we poured a few capfuls in and saw the multitude of bubbles that were created. The extra mild/unscented bubbles didn't bother his skin and he didn't care if they smelled or not! After trying out two unscented products, we wanted something that smelled yummy. We tested the Tangerine, Lemon and Rosemary Shampoo ($9.65 for 8.5 oz). It contains jojoba, flax seed oil, calendula and vitamin E. It's hypoallergenic and perfect for sensitive skin. Lastly, we tested the Organic Diaper Cream ($12.45 for 2 oz). Its mineral oil free, perfect for sensitve tushes, and ph balanced. It worked well on redness and was non-irritating to my toddler's skin.

Celeb fans include Brooke Burke, Kevin James, Debra Messing, Courteney Cox, and Gwenyth Paltrow.
