Gavin Beasley: "Lauren's a Conversation Killer"

In Monday's episode of The Hills, we were introduced to Gavin Beasley, a model who got Lauren's number at a shoot and consequently took her out to dinner? Well, he's got some revelations to make - and he's made them, in an interview with Best Week Ever. Following more evidence that The Hills is staged, Gavin's added his fuel to the fire, saying: "I honestly had a really hard time talking to [Lauren]. She's kind of a conversation killer, and when the cameras are rolling, all conversation is kept firmly on the surface. She talked about how mean Perez Hilton was, and how you have to be nice to the paparazzi so they don't release the uglier pictures of you. I don't know - pop culture, Red Bull, stuff like that. In fact, the most interesting thing I got out of her was that she isn't allowed to eat ice cream because her trainer told her she can't. What you see is really what you get with these people. Lots of fascinating discussion about 'the club', Vegas, getting drunk, Heidi Montag is evil, and so on. The lack of depth was actually uncomfortable for me. Like, how can nothing be everything you talk about? Oh, I forgot - lots of talk about [her] clothing line. That's pretty important, right?"

After the monologue, Gavin also had some more cutting remarks to make about Brody Jenner, Lauren's long-term friend (with, it seems, occasional benefits) - who to be fair made some pretty harsh comments about Beasley on the show. Gavin said, "The interesting thing is Brody, off camera, was a pretty chill guy. When the show came out and he was saying stuff about me - like I was short, too perfect, boring, etc., I didn't get pissed because I know that's solely done for The Hills. He creates drama and a story. That's why he's there."

Interesting comments, Gavin - but nothing we didn't particularly know already.
