Her last break-up may have led to a suicide attempt, but Alexa Ray Joel hasn't given up on love.
Bad break-ups are hard to get over, sometimes impossible-feeling, which is why we have to admire Alexa Ray Joel's spirit.
After having a particularly heart-breaking year last year, in which she broke up with her long-term, bass-playing ex, Jimmy Riot, popped a lot of pills in a supposed suicide attempt, and made a visit to the hospital that was chronicled by every major newspaper, Alexa, 24, has reportedly moved on and has started dating again.
Her new beau is 24-year-old guitarist Cass Dillon, who was hired to play guitar on the aspiring singer's new album, reports LimeLife.com.

Alexa Ray Joel, daughter of Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley, was hospitalized in New York Saturday night after an overdose of homeopathic anti-inflammatory pills, and friends say she was upset by a breakup as well as stressed over her parents' rocky romantic relationships.
Now that Christie Brinkley has dispensed with her nasty divorce from her revolting assistant-diddling fourth husband, Peter Cook, she's set her sights on a popular target for moms of a certain age: grandchildren. Christie says at 55, she's too old to add 31-year-old John Mayer to her list of conquests, but he should date her daughter, Alexa. "He's perfect dating material for my daughter," she said.
