Kelly Cutrone - Oh how her opinion changed when the MTV exposure came a calling!

Kelly Cutrone on Lauren Conrad: Then & Now


With the program's debut set for tomorrow, The Daily learned a little more through another featured player - Kelly Cutrone, who directed Lauren during Jennifer Nicholson's show at L.A. Fashion Week.

"That girl was so funny," shared Kelly. "She had to do a very simple task: come backstage at the show and get tickets for her editor. It's not that hard but she had a lot of trouble. She stood around backstage for at least a half hour before she figured out what to do. She didn't really have the sense of how to do things: she wanted stuff to fall on top of her and into her lap. In her position as an intern, she really needed to make things happen."

Meanwhile, MTV committed a fashion faux-pas at the show: asking for a front row seat for their star. "I was like, absolutely not," said Kelly. "If she's an intern, she's not going to sit in the front row. I don't care that she's on MTV. She can stand in the back as an intern." That may change next season, when Lauren goes from intern to TV star (and this month's Teen Vogue cover girl).
As for her future in the fashion industry, "I don't know how she'll do," says Kelly. "I mean, I wouldn't hire her, but she could grow. Everyone makes mistakes their first time."
