MTV's Announcement: New Seasons of The Hills and Laguna Beach!

MTV has had a complete network overhaul under the control of new programming topper Tony DiSanto (responsible for producing both Laguna Beach and The Hills). Within his new rulings, DiSanto will commission longer series of some programmes, and shorter ones of others.

Within his new plans, DiSanto has virtually doubled the run for 'The Hills', commissioning an 18-episode series. MTV has also ordered a fourth season of hit show 'Laguna Beach' which it had previously considered cutting. The show will feature an all-new cast, and will "be very much in vein of the show's first season - following a group of classmates in their final year of high school". It won't be shot at Laguna Beach High School, where all three previous seasons have been set, but instead at a currently unnamed Orange County high school - most probably in Newport Beach - and could be set to air later on this year. Execs have yet to decide whether to retain the 'Laguna Beach' title or change it to reflect its new area.

Lauren and Whitney on August Teen Vogue Cover

Just a quick post to let you all know that Lauren Conrad is featuring on Teen Vogue's August cover with fellow Hills star Whitney Port - attached below is a copy but I recommend the magazine if you want some great Hills gossip from arguably the two breakout stars of the show.

Also attached below is a copy of Lauren's first 'Mark' cosmetics ad - I think she looks absolutely stunning!

J-Wahl Repentant and out of Rehab

Two months in rehab has apparently changed Jason Wahler for the better. Or so he'd like you to think, I'm sure. Jason was ordered to serve his sentence in a rehabilitation center rather than a jail - jealous, Paris Hilton?

And speaking of the socialites, Wahler was quick to defend fellow law abuser Lindsay Lohan whilst speaking to People: "I relate to Lindsay. [She's] the same age as I am. I'm only 20. And to say that I can't ever drink again, even on my 21st birthday, is hard. But I don't care, as long as I'm healthy and happy." Suuure, Jason. We bet you won't ever touch another drop of alcohol. Ever.

He went on to seemingly justify his past misdemeanours, saying, "Anyone who's big in Hollywood, who's underage, gets in [to clubs]." Wahler brandished a fake ID when rarely asked for proof, and seemed to turn from a light social drinker to someone who partied too much and too often upon his arrival in LA in 2006. He apparently considered this 'normal'. That might have something to do with his nasty breakup with fellow Laguna Beach alum Lauren Conrad, then. Jason explains that he continued this party lifestyle "until [he] started becoming someone [he was] truly not", and explains it was a factor in the couple's bitter split. "I did try drugs, but it was never my thing. It was alcohol, for sure. It would take me about 10 drinks before that other side came out."

In the September of 2006, Wahler and then-girlfriend Kristin DeLuca got into a brawl with a tow-truck driver and this led to a conviction on a misdemeanor battery charge. Then on April 8th this year, Jason was charged with criminal trespassing and assault after passing out in a hotel lobby and then punching the security guard in Seattle. Jason says he is "embarrassed as hell", but "really [does] not remember [his] arrests. They're blackouts. And that's scary." You bet.

On April 12th, Wahler submitted himself to Chapman House, an inpatient facility near to his home in Orange County, CA. He told People that ex-girlfriend Lauren Conrad has been to visit. He is now dating tennis player Katja Decker-Sadowski (pictured right with Wahler) who studies at USC.

He says about his strict time at Chapman House, "It's exhausting, but after I started getting back to my senses, it was cool to get up in the morning and not be all hurting."

Well, we'll take your word for it Jason - but we're expecting no miracles.

Heidi and Lauren: the Feud Goes On

Once-upon-a-time BFFs Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag, the two main stars of MTV's 'The Hills', are according to various sources still feuding.

With the last season of The Hills ending when Montag moved out of the flat she shared with Conrad, and in with slimeball boyfriend Spencer Pratt, many thought the two would reconcile - or at least if they didn't, leave each other alone. Apparently not.

"Spencer has never felt so incredibly in love in all his life and Heidi feels like she is walking on clouds," says one 'insider' (probably previously brainwashed by Pratt) to In Touch Weekly. "Spencer wanted to show Heidi his commitment by taking their relationship to the next level [and get engaged]."

This relationship was the foundation of Montag and Conrad's now-bitter feud and was brought to life when Lauren confronted Heidi that they weren't having enough "best friend time" together. The rift is thought to be the reason why Heidi didn't show at The Hills' live finale after party in NYC, as Lauren didn't want Spencer invited.

Lauren reportedly repaid Heidi's snubbing as she declined an invitation to her engagement party on May 25. "Lauren was supposed to come but didn't show up," a 'friend' told In Touch Weekly. "Lauren doesn't seem very happy for Heidi and Spencer. It's like she's jealous because she always wanted to get married young."

Lauren, Audrina & Whitney Look Gorgeous at the MTV Movie Awards

Whitney Port should really be a model. I know she's done modelling jobs, I know she slipped up - but that girl is so pretty and has some gorgeous legs. Agreed? Good!

Audrina looked sweet in a floaty camisole teamed with black trousers and a clutch bag - mind you, Audrina always looks cute.

Lauren made her appearance in a virginal floaty gown chosen out of 3 by her fans in an online poll.

Left is a picture of The Hills trio as they arrived at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles, and below, the gruesome twosome Heidi Montag & Spencer Pratt (also of The Hills) showing off their newest addition; Heidi's fake boobs.

E! Online's Hollywood Party Girl Sydne Summer said this in her Live Blog feature on the night: "Lauren Conrad just came by with a couple of Hills friends. She doesn't seem too happy. Maybe she's just hot—the sun is beating right down on this fuchsia carpet. (Oops, I forgot to bring sunscreen!)
Or maybe she's not thrilled to be wearing a gown—an evening gown! The dress was picked by her fans through an Internet poll. It may be a bit too formal for these awards, but Conrad insists to me that it was her top choice, too."

Agreed - that dress is way too formal, but she still looks cute. Is it just me or was Lauren's hair far blonder during her Laguna days? Just a thought!

Kristin Cavallari's Mom is Really Hot

Kristin Cavallari's mom features in the latest two episodes of her RealityLASIK™ online show - and boys, she's a hottie.

Kristin's mom, who lives in Denver, Colorado, came to visit Kristin just weeks before she underwent the life-changing eye surgery. The latest two episodes show Kristin taking her mom out for a Mother's Day dinner in Malibu, and Kristin's mom even talks to the camera about Kristin's Yorkshire Terrier, Rocco. Now that's a mom for you.

If any of you ever saw Laguna, you'll know Kristin looks a lot like her dad, Dennis (not as much as Mike - Kristin's older brother - though), but the resemblance is pretty striking here too. They both have really cute noses for one!

Kristin Chills Out With Nick Zano's Mom

It's moments like this when I want to hold up a big "WTF" sign to all those Kristin-haters. As much as I love Lauren, and I do, she's spent time promoting trainers this week. Kristin? Having a coffee with her boyfriend and his mom. That's cute.

Cavallari, 20, enjoyed a coffee-to-go, with Nick and his mom, from one of West Hollywood's Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf on Tuesday.

It's things like this that I love about Kristin. She's obviously not out for the paparazzi, she's not posing or looking all that hot, and she's getting to know her boyfriend's family. Now get those cameras back on her!

Heidi Montag Rumoured to be Posing Nude for Playboy

What with her new part-plastic body, you'd think Heidi Montag would settle with the exposure she achieved from that. Obviously not.

Following her boob and nose job in April, it emerges that Heidi may have been offered $1 million to show off her fantastic plastic in Playboy. Lucky Spencer Pratt.

Spencer told In Touch Weekly, "Playboy is very interested in shooting Heidi's new body...they've offered her $1 million to be in the magazine". Hey, Playboy? This is Heidi Montag, not Lauren Conrad. $1 million seems a little extreme.

Playboy's representative, Lauren Melone, whilst not denying that an offer was made, did confirm that they would "not pay $1 million". Phew. That money could go somewhere far better than Spencer Pratt's pocket.

Heidi & Spencer Engaged

Oh. My. God. The world's biggest farce, a.k.a. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's 'relationship', is to finally be set in stone - the two are engaged. Oh Heidi. I hope you know what you're getting yourself in for.

The duo, whose controversial pairing was documented from the early Spencer-with-playmate/"get out of my car" days to the moment Heidi wrote her life away and moved in with him, have announced their engagement after just eight months together.

According to various sources, Pratt, 23, proposed on bended knee at the Bacara Resort & Spa in Santa Barbara, a favourite spot of the couple, with a diamond-encrusted platinum band with a pink sapphire in the middle. A source told Us Weekly, "[Heidi] is over the moon!" - we bet she is. May a lifelong marriage of publicity-seeking and staged photos (see right) ensue.

Nothing more to comment on this picture, other to make one much-echoed statement...

WHY, HEIDI?!
