When in DOUBT blame the HILLS for your LIFE PROBLEMS!


Hills star Stephanie Pratt opens up for the first time in the new issue of Us Weekly about hating her body and her terrifying secret struggle with bulimia -- sparked, she says, by the pressure of appearing alongside her super-thin friends on the hit MTV reality show.
Look back at the Hills' biggest scandals.
The 5-foot-7 23-year-old reveals she began bingeing and purging after watching a scene she shot with Lauren Conrad in 2007 after first joining the cast: "I was horrified. I remember saying, 'I can't believe how huge I look walking over to Lauren.'"
See what Hills stars looked like as babies.
Another time, when filming in Hawaii in bikinis, the size 0-2 Pratt –- in a bikini and cover-up -- asked costar Audrina Patridge, "What looks better, 'shirt on or off?'" Patridge said 'On.'" Says Pratt, "The producers never put pressure on us to lose weight," but adds, "It's embarrassing working with skinny girls."

Pathetic, bitch own your problems, no one forced you to do the Hills!

Kristin CAVALLARI'S HILLS SALARY REVEALED!

According to Life & Style Weekly, Kristin Cavallari will earn the $63,000 per episode during Season 6 of The Hills.


That is just $2,000 less than Lauren Conrad was getting!


A production insider states, “They needed someone new and fresh, who also came with a buzz and a name that was recognizable. Kristin was the obvious choice. She wanted money. You don’t have to pay the other girls that kind of money, but for Kristin you had to pay up.”
MTV must be really desperate because the devil girl will be making A LOT of money this season!
“She’s so fun and crazy. Kristin’s not afraid to put anything on camera. She’s not going to hold anything back," said costar Heidi Montag.


Good for Kristin, I figured one of the reasons MTV brought her on was for a cheaper salary than Lauren but I guess not.

Holly Montag, Frankie Delgado and Stacie Hall at the Oakley Intro to Summer Event at the Mondrian Hotel Skybar in West Hollywood, CA on Thursday!!










Stacie is kinda like Audrina, from obscurity to the Hills! This is a like a gathering of the Hills c-team!

Inside the CAVALLARI and PATRIDGE DRAMA! And now that Lauren is gone how do the teams stack up?

US reports that the fight between Cavallari and Patridge had nothing to with Audrina, Audrina was beeing a buttinsky! Here's what went down: Cavallari and Stephanie Pratt were talking Justin Bobby and at some point Cavallari gave a thumbs up to JB and said to Stephanie "It's you I have a problem with"! Thats when Audrina butted in and brought drama! Audrina don't mess with my girl Cavallari!

According to insiders next season of the Hills will have Spencer, Heidi and Kristin on one side and Stephanie, Lo, and Audrina on the other!

DRAMA in the MTV Movie Awards!

What's the difference between the MTV Movie Awards and a high school cafeteria at lunchtime? Nothing.

The producers of the show had an insane time managing all the various egos and cliques while trying to make the seating chart for the show.

For example, says the NY Post, Whitney Port once dissed "Twilight" and its star Kristen Stewart by saying the movie was "really bad" and Stewart was "one-dimensional" -- which means Stewart has one more dimension than Port.

Other alleged feuds include everyone on "The Hills" vs. Audrina Patrridge, everyone on "The Hills" vs. Paris Hilton, and the Disney stars (Miley Cyrus, Zac Efron, etc.) vs. the Nickelodeon stars (Miranda Cosgrove and Keke Palmer).

Audrina Patridge and Stephanie Pratt were spotted grabbing some Thai food yesterday (May 28) in Los Angeles!!






Audrina looks so different in the face after this all work, she has the Amanda Bynes look now in her cheeks. Who is convincing these women to get these ridiculous procedures?

Audrina Patridge hates on Kristin Cavallari because Kristin walks and into the HILLS and becomes the STAR!


Move over, Lauren and Heidi.
A new feud has emerged on The Hills: Audrina Patridge vs. Kristin Cavallari.
"I don't like her," Patridge confessed Thursday on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show.

She confirmed the two had a fight the first day of filming bonus episodes of the MTV show (it has been rumored that Cavallari has been pursuing Patridge's ex, Justin Bobby).
Patridge was mum on what went down, but told Seacrest, "When someone gets in my face, I have to defend myself. And, you guys, I mean, I can't say much. They'll show it, but I mean, all I have to say is, it's really pathetic and desperate what people will do when the cameras are around."
"It was my birthday, and I was like, Oh, my God. Is this what we're going to have to deal with?'" she added.
Look back at famous Hills scandals
Patridge wouldn't open up about her recent fling with Star Trek hottie Chris Pine.
Us Weekly reported that the two met at ShoWest in Las Vegas in early April. On May 15, she was spotted leaving his L.A. apartment building.
"There's always speculation of anyone I hang out with or anything I do," a coy Patridge told Seacrest.

Pressed for more, she replied, "My lips are sealed."
Look back at unforgettable Hills hook-ups
Still, she said, "From Justin Bobby, I think any guy is an upgrade. I mean, I've learned so much since that relationship."
Audrina can't get along with anyone, let's face it!

Inside the HILLS and the CITY!



MTV Gets Real (Sort of)
by Karl Taro Greenfeld May 2009 Issue


When tweens tire of Nickelodeon and Disney, where will they go? MTV hopes the formula that launched The Hills and The City can lure teenagers away from Facebook and Twitter...and back to their televisions.

Adam Divello leans forward on a black leather sofa in the MTV offices in Santa Monica, California, watching an almost-finished version of an episode of his hit show The Hills. An editing crew is reassembling footage of attractive young men and women meeting one another in bars, nightclubs, and apartments and exchanging the freighted glares and longing glances that pass for drama in the show and its spinoff, The City, which is set in Manhattan.


Some think America has had enough of Heidi, Spencer, and The Hills’ frenemies.DiVello, the 40-year-old creator and executive producer of the programs—he’s also co-creator of Laguna Beach, the ur-show that gave birth to the genre—has seen these clips several times. He’s now working on a slightly problematic scene: Audrina, a friend of star Lauren Conrad’s (or L.C., as she’s known in Us, People, OK, and In Touch magazines), has heard a rumor that Lauren has slept with Audrina’s boyfriend. ­DiVello feels that the shot, in which Audrina’s co-worker reacts to this dismaying news, lacks the requisite emotional clarity, so he asks the editor to substitute another take, “maybe something from earlier in the conversation.” Such is the high-pressure world of meta-reality. (Translation: “Shows that play somewhere between scripted drama and reality,” in the words of Brian Graden, president of programming at MTV and VH1.) But in real reality, the pressing ­question isn’t whether Lauren and Audrina will ever be friends again, but whether that genre of pseudo-reality TV, which DiVello helped create, can sustain itself.

The Hills and its progeny have been MTV’s only bona fide hits in recent years; the season-three finale, in 2007, was its highest-rated telecast ever, with 4.6 million viewers, and it established the series as the No. 1 cable show among viewers ages 12 to 34. But in the fourth quarter of 2008, MTV saw its overall viewership in that coveted demographic drop 23 percent—losing out not to other networks but to other mediums like online social networks. So MTV is doubling down on meta-reality. It announced that it will launch 16 new shows this year, including Taking the Stage—a clone of The City and The Hills—about high-school kids.

The formula, DiVello insists, is still basic: “Everyone wants to know what those alpha kids are up to.”It’s a risky strategy. With these shows, MTV is betting on a particularly elusive sliver of the youth demographic: 18- to 24-year-olds. Yet Graden argues that the programs tap into today’s youth culture in a way prepackaged sitcoms no longer can. “Once you hit 15, 16, you are onto Facebook, onto Twitter, so this is the first generation that has already published the story of their life in real time,” he says. “These shows are what they wish their story was—with pictures they choose, with songs they choose, with their friends.” Of course, as that audience fragments, it’s not enough just to develop a hit show for television; it’s essential to capitalize on the remaining viewers by whatever means necessary.

The success of The Hills, coinciding with falling ratings elsewhere on the network, prompted MTV to build out a multiplatform consumer franchise that interacts with—and sucks revenue from—its fans through mobile phones, digital downloads of music, and the Web. The network pioneered a kind of reverse-product placement through a website called SeenonMTV, which allows viewers to log on, search by episode, and buy the clothes that Conrad or Whitney Port (former co-star of The Hills and now star of The City) are wearing. The site currently delivers more than 30 million pageviews a month, with an average customer order of $200 and annual revenue in the $20 million range, money that is shared with MTV’s online retail partners. The network went even further by launching a fashion line by Conrad, an aspiring designer. That business generated $5 million to $10 million in annual revenue, with the brand available in more than 250 retail boutiques around the country. There’s an interactive community called the Virtual Hills, where fans build avatars, or online characters, and communicate with the actual cast members, design their own fashions, and hang out with other fans. The Hills is also MTV’s bestselling DVD series; with nearly 2 million units sold—numbers on a par with those of The Sopranos. MTV execs are hoping that Taking the Stage, which debuted in March, will replicate, or at least reinforce, the prior shows’ track records. It’s set in a Cincinnati high school for the performing arts, where, Graden explains, “all the kids are beautiful, but it’s more urban.” He argues that, despite MTV’s struggles of late, “there is still space for a strong brand devoted to reflecting this generation.” With all the technology out there, he believes, “nobody has positioned themselves as the dominant voice of this generation. Why can’t that be MTV? It worked for the last generation.”

Viacom, MTV’s parent company, had a disastrous fourth quarter and certainly needs the bottom-line bump of a hit series. What the network needs to prove is that Taking the Stage can provide this at a time when interest in The Hills is on the wane. Between its peak, in season three, and season four (which ended in December), the show lost a quarter of its viewers, according to Nielsen.

In March, Conrad announced that she was putting her fashion line on hiatus. The City is struggling too: Average viewership is 1.38 million an episode, half of The Hills’ at its lowest.But failure is not a reality, meta- or otherwise, that either MTV or DiVello entertains—at least not now. At a recent shoot for The City, the director and producers sat hunched behind a table. They watched the cast members on four microwave-size digital monitors with toaster-oven-size screens showing the scene from four different angles. They relayed directions to the camera operators and production assistants—“See if there’s steam coming from that coffee cup,” “Get that guy away from Whitney”—while an assistant producer typed the dialogue as she listened to it through an earpiece. The vast majority of what was said was of no interest to anyone; Di­Vello has learned to be patient with his kids, watching and waiting and editing and dubbing over dialogue so that the story will come through in the end.“I try to tell them not to worry, that sometimes they’ll look better than others,” he tells me after I ask how a meeting went with a distraught Whitney. She was upset, concerned that she would look like a bad girlfriend for showing up late for a club gig that her boyfriend’s band was playing. “Adam and I text all day long,” she tells me. “I think of most 40-year-old men, and I don’t think they have the same understanding.... He just knows what’s going on. We just have to pretty much put all our trust in Adam.”
