Last Wednesday's edition of CBS' Rock Star: Supernova featured a first — Tommy Lee, Gilby Clarke and Jason Newsted in the nascent band's first live performance ever, fronted, in at least this one instance, by Dilana — as well as a last, in a swan song from Zayra Alvarez, who has been sent packing.

Last week on CBS' Rock Star: Supernova (Tuesday at 9/Wednesday at 8 pm/ET), Tommy Lee sent the hatchet swinging not once but twice, eliminating both Jill Gioia and Josh Logan from the competition — not exactly a huge shock since both had been in the bottom three before.

Might a gal actually grab the Season 2 prize? Catching up with cohost Brooke Burke at a mock protest rally on behalf of NoScruf.org (a Gillette promotional event), TVGuide.com asked the brunette beauty about the lady Rockers' chances, her own Wild partying days and what it's like to be dressed by a paintbrush.
TVGuide.com: As you can see, I purposely shaved this morning in preparation for interviewing you.
Brooke Burke: I'm
