Ding, dong, Lipstick Jungle's dead. For real this time. Brooke Shields says so herself.

Although rumors of the NBC show's demise started swirling in December, Brooke told E!'s Kristin Dos Santos that there was still hope at the time. Well, not anymore.

"It was going to stay and we just were officially told it's finally not coming back," she said at the Latisse launch party last night. "It's very sad. I think a lot of people were really sad, but I think we hung on a really long time. It was three great years that we've been working on it."

So what's next for the Lipstick ladies?

That remains to be seen. Brooke said that she and her castmates just found out the show is actually getting the ax. "It literally just happened," she said. "We're all kind of reeling and trying to figure out what our next move is."

For now, Brooke's keeping busy as a spokesperson for Latisse, a prescription eyelash-lengthening treatment.

"It actually works," Brooke said as she showed off her lush lashes at the soiree. "I'm at eight weeks of using it and they're all mine!"

Hmm. Mascara Metropolis, it's got an interesting ring to it.
