If you’ve read all the hype about the musical drama Smash and you think it’s another Glee, Katharine McPhee says think again.

The American Idol runner-up says the new series – which premieres on NBC Monday – is nothing like the FOX network hit.

“[I’m] not saying that one is better than the other…” she tells Celebuzz, “They’re just totally different shows.”

How 'Smash' Is Bringing Broadway To The Small Screen

Two desperate and talented performers — Ivy (Megan Hilty), a Broadway veteran looking to move beyond the chorus line, and Karen (Katharine McPhee), a Midwestern girl stuck waiting tables — fight to star in a musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe.

To get the lead role in the new musical drama Smash, they'll have to win over a writing duo that's out for one more hit (Debra Messing, Christian Borle), a producer in the midst of a messy divorce (Anjelica Huston) and a director (Jack Davenport) with an ego bigger than the Big Apple.

"I have always had an interest in theater," explains executive producer Steven Spielberg, "but it's that creative process — what goes on before the curtain even goes up — that really fascinated me."

The result is a behind-the-scenes look at musical theater with a few soulful show tunes for good measure (think: Glee meets The West Wing). And in a meta twist, the Marilyn production they're putting together on the show may one day be staged as a reallife Broadway musical.

Reese Witherspoon may not have been nominated for any awards, but she was a true showstopper from her gorgeous Zac Posen gown to her bohemian and natural do courtesy of Frederic Fekkai’s Adir Abergel, who also tousled the tresses of Diana Agron. Want to get Reese’s look? Adir started by using Fekkai COIFF™ Océanique Tousled Wave Spray throughout dry hair. He then used a small amount of Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Cream, applying it to the ends
of hair to create a moisturizing seal. Using a medium round brush he blow-dried the hair with volume. He then wrapped the hair around a one inch curling iron using slight tension to create loose waves. This process was repeated around the head. Lastly, Adir took the hair at the crown of the
head, pulling it back for a Bardo-style bump. He finished the look with Fekkai COIFF™ Sheer Hold Hairspray for hold and Fekkai Brilliant Glossing Sheer Shine Mist for shine.
