Courteney Cox Is the New 'Home Editor' of Jane Pratt's Website

Curbed is reporting that Courteney Cox has been named the new "Home Editor" of Jane Pratt's new website, xoJane.com, where, according to the press release, she "will be giving xoJane.com readers decorating advice and beauty tips." Celebrities, what's ours is yours. Including our jobs. Go on and take them! Pratt has not only written often about her glittering circle of celebrity friends on her website, she has also been taking them on as contributors in various capacities. Courtney Love has a diary! David Arquette designed a shirt just for the site! And now Courteney Cox is an editor and a columnist! Gosh! In all seriousness though, loading up her site with celebrities doesn't strike us as a bad move, although she may find it impossible to withstand the competition from Gwyneth Paltrow, who is turning into a media tidal wave and may be launching her own magazine. Pratt's glory days were in the 1990s, and her celebrity friends represent that: while she's gushing about hanging out with Michael Stipe, Paltrow, an A-List celebrity herself, is busy interviewing Jay-Z. But there is plenty of lingering 90s nostalgia, so perhaps Pratt has a niche. Cox's first post is on the site, in which she recommends a few beauty products that she uses, including a $9 dollar at-home hair dye, which is a nice suggestion because it's cheap. Unlike, for example, Gwyneth Paltrow's recommendation of giving someone a $1,400 leather weekend-getaway bag for Christmas on Goop.com. In her author profile, Cox also answers a few hard-hitting questions like "I smell like: Orange Blossom meets Vanilla meets Coconut" and "I Have Faked An Orgasm (Yes/No): Not in as many years as I can remember." (Cox did not choose these questions.) We don't know how much work she'll put into the site as "Home Editor," but we wish her luck. Editing a website can be brutal.
