Jason Wahler is speaking up about LC’s (and apparently his) feud with with Heidi and Spencer.

My favorite quote?

“”They just need to shut up.”

Spencer Pratt Has a Meltdown

Monday, August 6th, 2007

spencer.jpg

These “Laguna Beach” types can’t go a day without badmouthing each other. This time, it’s Spencer Pratt running his mouth. In his most recent blog post, Spencer rants about how Lauren Conrad has been talking smack about Spencer and Heidi just to get publicity for herself. Umm… isn’t that the whole point of MTV reality franchises? Whatever. You can read the whole blog post after the jump, but here a few teaser quotes:

  • “[Lauren Conrad] used to ask to get in bed with Heidi and I to cuddle in the mornings”
  • “when those cameras turn off LC(BEEF CURTAINS) is a completely different person…she goes back to being the spoiled brat that made her famous on Laguna Beach”
  • “The LC is a pathetic wannabe fashion designer…who can’t even dress herself and look good…how is she going to design a line…ha…it should be called BEEF CURTAINS by LC”

Lauren Conrad and Friends Don’t Want Your Attention

Sunday, August 5th, 2007

LC_favs.jpg

Yeah, right! Even though the girls complained about the pesky paparazzi presence at a Hollywood hot spot a few nights back, they seem to love the exposure they got from MTV. Here’s what happened:

TMZ spotted the twosome outside of Les Deux last night, shooting scenes for the upcoming season of “The Hills.” Conrad and Patridge were then caught complaining to a producer about going back to the club because there was too much paparazzi around. Uh, hello? Tick tock … 15 minutes girls!

So they don’t want to be photographed but they continue to star in reality shows?? I don’t get it, someone explain this to me. You can also hear in the video that Lauren Conrad says something along the lines of, “Come on, do we have to shoot another exit?” Call me old-fashioned, but doesn’t this take the reality out of “The Hills”? A true reality show would not be reshooting scenes–that defeats the purpose of the whole genre. But then again, what do I know…

“The Hills” 2 on DVD

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

brody_jenner_and_lauren_conrad.jpg
August 7th is the date: “The Hills” season 2 finally arrives on DVD. Here’s a short publicity blurb:

With a year in Los Angeles under their belts, Lauren Conrad and her friends Heidi, Audrina and Whitney are learning that being young women in the big city isn’t as easy as they expected. The girls are older, wiser and now single, but still facing challenges at work and school. This year when new guys force them to make tough choices, Lauren and the girls are about to find out that not even friendships can be taken for granted.

Look Who’s Mocking “The Hills”

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

It’s MadTV! Usually I find this program childish and humorless, but they sure struck a chord with their parody of “The Hills”! The impression of LC is uncanny! Check it out:

Lauren Conrad and Jody Brenner’s Friendship Is Fake

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

LC_favs.jpg
The headline is apparently true. Hollywood Scoop is claiming that Lauren Conrad and Jody Brenner are only ever seen together when “The Hills” cameras are rolling, and that’s the only reason why they hangout at all:

Lauren Conrad and Brody Jenner have been seen around town hanging out. They are also shooting the new season of “The Hills” so you can tell they are only hanging around because of that.

The two used to date but I highly doubt they are reconciling. Maybe that’s why Lauren decided to tackle Brody so hard she ended up breaking his finger. Great way to get back at an ex right?

That quote is referring to when Brody Jenner broke his finger a few days back. It’ll be interesting to see how this “Hills” drama heats up. Or cools down. Or melts or something.

Jessica Smith from “Laguna Beach” Scorns Lindsay Lohan

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

jessica_smith.jpg
Jessica Smith, who was recently sentenced in her DUI case (read about it here), opened up about her opinions regarding Lindsay Lohan. Evidently, Jessica feels that Lindsay should not receive any special treatment, because otherwise “she won’t learn her lesson.” Read:

I think she needs real help, not Promises-type of help with massages and everything. She needs to go to a real place to address her problem. The bottom line is she needs help. She keeps messing up.

I think she deserves whatever punishment she gets. If she gets off just because she’s Lindsay Lohan, that’s ridiculous. If someone slaps her on the wrist, and is like, ‘oh, you bad girl,’ she won’t learn her lesson.

Sound advice from one Beverly Hills chick to another. It’s a vicious cycle. Read the rest of the interview after the jump.

Get Excited: Thursday

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

What does Thursday mean to you? To me, it means a whole new batch of juicy MTV stories:

  • Which new “Real World” cast member is already being called “unstable”?
  • Which “Laguna Beach” starlet has some harsh words for Linday Lohan? I have a feeling this one’s not going to end well!
  • Watch your back, because Steve-O may have a tough surprise in store for you.

Brody Jenner and Spencer Pratt Fight

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

brody_and_spencer.jpg
Geeze, we do them a favor by tolerating them while they’re on TV; don’t bother us with your drama when it’s not on television! Yes, Brody Jenner and Spencer Pratt from “The Hills” are, like, not friends anymore. Awesome. (They’re pictured here, sandwiching Heidi Montag). Apparently, things went awry when Pratt spoke ill of Jenner’s then girlfriend Nicole Richie in a DETAILS magazine article. I’ve read the article and it basically says that Brody Jenner used Nicole Richie for his own publicity, which many have suspected all along. The two boys are now on two opposing teams: it’s Brody and LC vs. Spencer and Heidi. Hopefully it’s a death match (and no one’s a winner).

Sigh, what do you all think?

Newport Harbor is the new Laguna Beach

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

newport2.jpg
How did this sneak up on me!? Ladies and gentlement, MTV has packed their things and moved on from Laguna Beach, only to descent upon the close by Newport Harbor for their new series… “Newport Harbor.” This show appears to be literally an extension of “Laguna Beach,” just with new castmembers and a new location:

“Now we are moving up the coast to a new town with new faces and a new high school, but with the same drama of dealing with relationships, cliques, family and friends,” Tony DiSanto, MTV’s executive vice president for series development and programming, said in a statement. “The real O.C. is a beautiful backdrop to this universal story and this year we go back to the heart of the drama … the wistful last year of school.”

[source]

I could do without the pathetic references to the speaker’s “wistful last year of school,” but at least he gives us some good info: expect “Laguna Beach”-type story lines. Plain and simple. The official website words things a little differently:

For three years we have lived, loved and come of age with the teenagers of Laguna Beach. This season, we’re moving up the coast… to Newport Harbor! Join a new group of friends as they discover new loves, face new rivalries and suffer new heartbreaks. On the road to their first kiss, the newest, hottest couple at school contend with an overprotective father and a girl that’s used to getting everything she wants. Meanwhile, former best friends compete for the affection of a sophomore beauty. As they prepare to leave their childhood behind, they’ll find that high school isn’t always a day at the beach. New beauty, new town, new love and new faces: Newport Harbor - The Real Orange County.

It seems we may get a little bit of everything in this new series. More shirtless, well-tanned pictures after the jump.

Get Excited: Tuesday

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

Now that you’re done reading Harry Potter, you can really focus your attention on MTV. Here’s what coming up tomorrow:

  • There’s a new “Laguna Beach” coming!!! I mean, log on to find out all the details and see simmering pictures of a possible new MTV show.
  • Shanna Moakler from “Meet the Barkers” is “devastated.” Find out why.
  • One of MTV’s hugest commercial supports is going down the drain. Which one?? And does it affect you??

Brody Jenner Broke His Finger (Zzzzz…)

Monday, July 23rd, 2007

brody_jenner_and_lauren_conrad.jpg
God, why must we follow every move “The Hills” kids make? I suppose that’s just my lot in life. Let’s get to it. Apparently Brody Jenner was playing football and the beach when LC decided to stop by and join in. One thing led to another and Brody Jenner ended up with a broken finger.

According to E!, Brody Jenner went to the ER and returned with a set of X-rays and a full cast on his left arm. He told the crew, “I’m gonna get surgery, but I’m gonna live.” Of course, Lauren laughed at the ridiculous cast and Brody got his feelings hurt, sparking an argument you’re sure to watch on MTV. E! reports that it all ended in a long-winded heart-to-heart, the kind of stuff shows like The Hills were made for.

Good thing that E! has us covered. Remember that “The Hills” premieres August 13th, this little subplot is sure to be included.

Heidi Montag Does Runway (Really?)

Kristen Cavallari Whores It Out for Lasik

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

Clearly, Kristen Cavallari doesn’t have enough money already. To remedy this, she teamed up with Lasik to bring us some 20/20 sponsorship. Here’s a screenshot of the Facebook group/advertisement:

kristenfacebook.jpg

If you head over to realitylasik.com you can see all of Kristen’s Lasik adventures by watching the 9 webisodes currently available. Here’s a short snippet explaining where the hell this website came from:

Follow Kristin on her LASIK journey (and get a unique snapshot of her life). It’s a great way to get an insider’s perspective of what it’s like to have LASIK, from initial consultation to a new life without contacts or glasses.

I really have no problem with people selling out (what do you think I’m doing here!), I just had no idea that this mega promotion even existed. I’d usually say that I’ll keep you updated with this story, but I’m pretty sure that this is all there is. Let’s hope.

Kristen Cavallari in MySpace Drama

Friday, July 13th, 2007

As I was compiling today’s post I stumbled upon what appears to be Kristen Cavallari’s MySpace page. Though her profile is set to private, you can still see her default profile picture. Well, check out the screen shot:

kristen_myspace.jpg

It definitely, definitely appears that Ms. Cavallari is boozing it up. (Remember that she’s a year shy of her 21st birthday, so this behavior is a no-no). I suppose the drink could be, um, kool aid, but then try to explain the lime wedge in her mouth. We’ve seen and heard rumblings of the “Laguna Beach” stars drinking before, but slapping it all over your MySpace page seems pretty middle school.

I suppose you have to take into account that the profile might not actually be hers, and just be one of the countless MySpaces forged by fans. But even if that’s the case, it’s definitely Kristen in the picture, so that really doesn’t change much.

Then again, the profile is set to private, so it most likely belongs to the one and only Kristen Cavallari.
