The ever so glamorous Audrina Patridge is seen here filming scenes for the upcoming season of The Hills with Stephanie Pratt as they grab some Thai food on Cahuenga Boulevard. And is it just me, or has Audrina had some work done, as by the looks of it here, she is looking even more glam with every passing season. Whatever she has done, I like, and I particularly like the way she is going blonder without going blonde at all. Very nice, Audrina. And yes, Audrina has once again become the focus of another catfight on The Hills, and her lean towards blonder times may be one symptom of that, as a former co-star is returning to this Laguna Beach spinoff and the blondes are causing a stir. But then, what on The Hills doesn’t end in a catfight? The Hills have set the bar pretty high for themselves, what with the past four seasons chronicling Lauren Conrad and Heidi Pratt being railroaded together despite hating each other. But now, for the new era, which drops Lauren but adds her hometown frenemy Kristin Cavallari, the explosive new drama will find–wait for it–Kristin and Audrina Patridge hating each other! It’s the most daring creative masterstroke since the creators of C.S.I. developed C.S.I.: Miami! Audrina read this new development from her “script” on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on Thursday. And she was not so slow about letting the world know that she flat out doesn’t like the new blonde in The Hills. Guess another birthday party for Audrina bit the dust when she and Kristen had it out a bit. And we can expect to see every juicy detail this season.

“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? Not to mention all these people who keep showing up with cameras every time sensational drama occurs. I mean what is up with that?”

Did Audrina perhaps forget that she was on a reality TV show? Maybe someone should tell her THAT is what is up with those pesky little camera crews. But this Audrina vs. Kristin thing has also been foreshadowed by Jon and Kate Plus Eight Weekly, formerly known as Us. The magazine’s source says to expect a Hills divided with Lo Bosworth warming up to her former adversary Audrina and Stephanie Pratt while Kristin sides with troublesome Spencer and Heidi Pratt. In addition to the birthday-ruining drama, Kristin reportedly upset the delicate social balance on the series on May 22 when she interrupted a conversation between Audrina’s greasetrap ex-boyfriend Justin Bobby and Spencer’s sister Stephanie at a Hollywood hotel. Yes, they’re fighting over Justin Bobby. These are truly dark days for The Hills.

Lauren aka ‘Lo’ Bosworth is seen here joining a host of celebrities while they party hearty at the popular L.A. hotspot the Crown Bar. And what we know of Lauren is that she is one of the more opinionated girls of The Hills and she is never afraid to speak her mind, or purse her lips accordingly when she finds someone doing something she disapproves of. Ah yes, we all know that ‘hm.’ she gives when someone says something she finds a little out of sorts, and you can’t help but wonder what is going through her head when she gives the disapproving tsk tsk. My, what a great mom Lo will make one day! And with this quality in her that we have all come to know and love, she has vocalized some thoughts on the Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag marriage. She says she was surprised to learn that her costars on The Hills got married in Mexico in a private ceremony, and did so after an evening of champagne and tequila. On The Hills: Live After the Show Monday night, Lauren said:

“I always thought they were going to get married. I just didn’t know when. I thought she always wanted a big, beautiful event wedding in L.A. I was surprised it turned out the way it did actually.”

On the show, Lauren told the world that she heard of the Montag marriage at the same time, and in the same way that we all did, on the Internet. She was very surprised by the alcohol fuelled chain of events when she saw the show air where Spencer had suggested that he and Heidi get married after they had been in the Patron all night. After they had discussed the idea, the two even ordered more Patron, as Heidi so eloquently put it, ‘you know what Patron does to me, it gets me crazy.’ Lauren thought it was hysterical that Heidi needed some tequila to make the final call, the Patron push she called it. She wasn’t too sure if she was drunk when they actually got married, but knows they were the night before when the decision was made. But at the end of the day, Lo does believe that regardless of the how’s or the why’s, that Heidi and Spencer will be married forever. Tough to say when you are dealing with a control freak and a girl that doesn’t seem to make her own decisions, but again, for this very reason this could be a match made in heaven.

I almost want to say that well, hell has frozen over, but I guess we’ve seen this coming. Oh yes, we all cringed when they got engaged, and have been in a state of frozen cringe ever since, but the inevitable has happened. Yes, Spencer Pratt finally coerced Heidi into attaching herself to him in the most permanent and legally binding way by marrying Heidi in a private elopement this past weekend. And when we say private, we mean private, as not even Heidi’s family was made aware.

For those of you that follow The Hills, you may have seen Heidi’s sister Holly on the After Show last night, where she tearfully stated that she was a little hurt by the whole thing but will always be there for Heidi no matter what. Oh yes, Holly flew into the studio to film the After Show not having a clue about Heidi’s nuptials, and when she got off the plane her phone was bombarded with the news that Heidi and Spencer were on the cover of US proudly showing off their newlywedded bliss. Yeah, that’s gotta sting. But nobody knew anything, which seemingly may all boil down to more of Spencer’s control and hideousness.

Oh this always happens to the shows you love, and the characters you love the most doesn’t it? Whitney Port was always one of my faves from The Hills because she seemed to be the only one that ever had her head on straight. And this groundedness may be just the reason that she is leaving The Hills. But you won’t be missing her for too long, as the rumors that she is kicking into a Hills spinoff are true. We have seen Whitney do the bicoastal lifestyle for a while now with her new job at People’s Revolution, and it turns out that the bicoastal thing is turning into a permanent move for her, but not with People’s Revolution. The result for her fans? A spinoff to The Hills known as naturally, The City. The City will follow Whitney as she makes the permanent move to the Big Apple, works in a fashion house, reunites with old friends, and revamps her love life. Now THAT will be something I look forward to, I always thought this girl deserved a little more fun than we were seeing. But Whitney will no longer be working for People’s Revolution which may be a good thing for her. Nope, she is moving on up the fashion ladder and will be working for another female powerhouse, none other than Diane Von Furstenberg. Oh, my heart! Could I BE any more jealous? At any rate, this new job and new life will be very exciting for Whitney, and for her fans. As we know, The Hills itself is a spinoff to Laguna Beach, when LC, the affectionate nickname of Lauren Conrad won over fans and moved to The Hills to pursue work at Teen Vogue. Incidentally, nobody in Lauren’s real life actually call her that, but you know how these things stick. I am sure we will see Whitney end up with a few nicknames for herself as well…in the meantime, she’s giving us something great to look forward to!

From what we have seen the last few episodes of The Hills, Audrina Patridge and Lauren Conrad seemed to have patched things up a little bit when it comes to the ever growing bridge in their friendship. Though recent events seem to indicate otherwise, and it seems that the two may even be fighting over a boy. Yes, this is interesting news of late, considering Lauren is ticked at Stephanie for doing the unthinkable and chasing down one of her exes, but wellll….Lauren may have broken her own friendship rule when it comes to Audrina’s man. We’ve seen Audrina hanging out with Justin Bobby quite a bit, both last season and this season, but there is no exclusive arrangement between the two, and Audrina has enjoyed much time with other boys. And Lauren has capitalized on this, we think, and the two are ‘sparring’ with each other on their MySpace pages. This has all been due to some Internet rumors that Lauren has been hooking up with Justin, and this is what Audrina has to say via MySpace:

“These rumors are very confusing and hurtful,” she writes in a post on Friday. “I’m not sure what to believe,” she writes, noting that she and Justin Bobby “have not been exclusive for quite some time.”

But what is really going on between Audrina and Justin? They still seem to be going hot and heavy, so why doesn’t she just ask HIM? Oh right, because men are so honest, right? Well you know. Those two WERE spotted at West Hollywood’s Crown bar just recently where onlookers said they were inseparable all night, and were giggling and hand holding and doing all sorts of crazy things together. So if Justin can’t be honest, Lauren wants to set the record straight.

“This accusation is insulting on so many levels. I’m being accused of being a bad friend, a slut and a liar all at once. It would actually be funny to me if people weren’t taking it seriously. I did not and would never hook up with Justin.”

So that was Lauren’s message to the public. What did she have to say to Audrina?

“We promised we wouldn’t let people get into our ears and make us fight,” she wrote. “You KNOW I didn’t do this and I have never given you a reason not to trust me. What you are doing is hurtful and I don’t want to fight with you.”

Hmmm…sounds like the two have some issues to work out. And since they are supposed to kind of be BFF, they may want to take this out of the public eye and just DEAL. Of course then, what would WE have to talk about?

Here is Gossip Girls favorite pretty boy, Chace Crawford working hard on the set of Gossip Girl as they film a series for the upmarket holiday destination of the Hamptons. Ah yes, viewers will get a birds eye view of how the Upper East Sider’s ‘summer’ when the season opens once again. And it seems that while Chace hask been working hard on the East Coast, he has been setting his romantic sights on the opposite end of the country, and has been vying for some West Coast girls pretty hard and heavy. What’s that you say? Chace Crawford isn’t gay after all? Welll….I didn’t say that. But Chace has made it no secret that the starlets of The Hills are girls after his own heart. (maybe it’s the fashion thing?? At the Ultra Supper Club following the MMVAs last Sunday, Chace was seen with his hand on Whitney Port’s leg, however all this after he had told Lauren Conrad that there was ‘no kissing on the first date’. Hm. Chace Crawford not an early kisser? That lends more evidence for the other team I am afraid. But Chace did have some fun with Lauren and he has made it very public that he has a huge crush on her. And it seems the feelings are mutual, and Lauren was seen around Chace calling him ‘super cute’ and giggling in excess. Oh Lauren Lauren. He thinks she’s hot, she thinks he’s super cute, and he was doing the hand leg thing with Whitney Port. So…who do you think he will go for next? Heidi Montag or Brody Jenner?

Here is the quieter of the bunch when it comes to The Hills starlets, Whitney Port as she is seen leaving Gotham Hall in New York City. Yes, I heart New York is now one of Whitney’s mantras, ever since we watched her career take some twists that brought her over to the East Coast. Whitney is now working for fashion PR firm People’s Revolution on the East Coast, and it looks like Hills fans want more of her. So much so that instead of incorporating this story line into The Hills, Whitney is getting her own spin-off. Whitney’s spin-off will be very much like The Hills, but not taking place in ‘the Hills’ and will show her making new friends and hanging out in New York. Among the list of Whitney’s new chums will be New York socialite Olivia Palermo, and we will see Whitney climbing her way to the top as a career girl in New York City. Lauren Conrad, Whitney’s work BFF thinks Whitney will be able to pull off both the new show and her skyrocketing career in a heart beat, and knows she will do well on all accounts. Lauren has always respected how Whitney kept her personal life out of The Hills, and wonders if this new spin-off may bring Whitney out of that comfort zone. As far as Whitney’s thoughts on the show? She’s mum about it saying most of it is hearsay, as the girls are working hard on the 4th season of The Hills, and is not sure whether the spin-off will actually…spin off. But you know how Hollywood works. Rumors begin as a means of breaking things in to the public slowly….

Here is Audrina Patridge from The Hills leaving the Crown bar the other evening after enjoying a night out with some girlfriends. Notably, her former BF Lauren Conrad was not amongst the gaggle of girls. And yes, we’ve all been looking for some sign of a truce between the two ever since the season finale of The Hills, where it appeared that Lauren’s BF Lauren Bosworth, AKA “Lo”, was coming between the roomies. Fans were left hanging and are still wondering what is up with these two. Friends or foes? Who knows, in fact, it seems that even they aren’t sure what’s up. Lauren Conrad describes the friendship as “tense” and it is more than a little obvious that the two have kept their distance at public appearances. But both Laurens have been trying to reach out to Audrina. Yes, word is that Audrina is still living in the guest house of the home she shares with Lo and Lauren, but they don’t see much of her. And they may not, a move on Audrina’s part was hinted on the last episode, and they still aren’t sure if that is going to be the case. Lauren Conrad on the other hand hopes things work out and is staying positive. Audrina feels the same, and doesn’t want to see the friendship end. I guess we just have to tune in to the next season to see the real dirt, huh? Never fails….
