iThe Hills/i Reality Check: 'I'm Done With You'
This season, we watched as Spencer’s mood flattened until last night’s proof that MTV’s resident villain had died. Heidi tried to get a rise out of him by talking birthday parties, diamond gifts, and kids, but still couldn’t pull Spencer out of his funk. Even when producers spoon-fed him a single line reminiscent of the Spencer we grew to resent, his lifeless delivery ruined the intended effect: Heidi served him coffee and Spencer said, bored, “This married life is starting to pay off. I’m getting delivery service.” Last season, we would have ripped the thin blond beard hair-by-hair out of our Spencer Voodoo Dolls because of this chauvinistic remark. But last night, we felt kind of bad for him and wondered if he had jumped onto the propofol-mainlining rage, calling an unethical doctor to his house before the crew arrived to ensure that he would be unconsciousness through the entirely derivative shoot.
At Heidi’s self-coordinated birthday party party, Spencer passed up a few prime opportunities to humiliate his guests. He meandered around the set nonchalantly until he finally presented Heidi with his producer-supplied gift: two puppies in a designer carrier. When Heidi hugged the unfortunate fluffballs, Spencer muttered something about how the puppies were the only babies she would ever have. Meanwhile, a producer off-camera considered sending a PA out to Colorado to burn down Heidi’s family’s home so that they’d have to crash at Speidi’s house indefinitely. But even that would not awake Spencer from his despondence.

Kristin Shopping with Frankie Delgado
Kristin Cavallari looked happy to see the paparazzi while out shopping at the Grove in LA yesterday afternoon. While she was definitely the first real darling of the MTV teen "reality" show Laguna Beach world, her attempts at parlaying that into an acting career have mostly fallen flat. Therefore, it was no big surprise to hear that she may be jockeying for a role on next season of The Hills. Hey, at least she was always entertaining her pretty mean-girl way. Plus, here she is hanging out with her ex Brody's BFF Frankie Delgado. As a newly single again girl, Kristin seems always up for a good love triangle or cat fight.Popsugar
Frankie Delgado has made a few brief appearances on The Hills, such as the Las Vegas episode and the episode where he ran into Spencer while going to cash a check.

Lauren Conrad Threatens ‘The Hills’ Walkout Over Possible Kristin Cavallari Addition
According to Popcrunch, producers of The Hills are trying to get Kristin Cavallri to be a castmember on Season 4. Lauren's reaction?
“She threatened to walk away. She feels as if The Hills was created around her and that she made it what it is today,” a Star Magazine mole says of Lauren Conrad.
“She hated how she was depicted on Laguna Beach.”
I have 5 words: Why am I not surprised?

The Irony of the Hated Spencer Pratt
"He went psycho," an insider told the Post.
The staff at Conrad's apartment complex has already been informed she and roommate Heidi are moving out. They are also under strict orders to remove Conrad's ex physically if he tries to get in.
--United Press International Published August 9, 2006
Also, if you remember, I posted rumor about Jason. I realized I didn't sight my source, so here it is:
Meanwhile, E! Online’s Korbi Ghosh reports that Kristin’s “friendships with the Laguna gang are rapidly dissolving.” Alex H. was living with Kristin but moved out because “their relationship soured because Kristin insisted that everything be about her, expecting Alex to be on call.”
Stephen, Dieter, and Jason are living together in LA, while Lauren “has cut ties with every other castmember except Jason, whom she’s still dating.”
Ghosh also has a few blind items, saying that there’s a second-season only male or female cast member who “has been in and out of rehab many times” and “got into a knock-down, drag-out fight with a castmember of the opposite sex, bashing his or her head against a wall.”

& today, I found another one.
There's lots of talk about Jason Wahler, LC's boyfriend. Apparently, he has been in and out of rehab for the last couple of years for problems with alcohol, drugs, and anger. Alex M. has said that during their relationship, Jason did in fact hit her, but it was never shown on the show. Also, neither Jason nor Talan Torriero passed their senior year and that's why they were not at their graduation. So, I thought that was pretty interesting. Anyway, here's some pictures of Talan with Ryan Cabrera and some other weirdo. Also, a pic of Talan with Pussycat Doll, Nicole. They are rumored to be together and he even mentioned something about her when he was on Kathy Griffin's show on BRAVO. How old is Nicole anyway? I guess she's a vast improvement over Talan's ex, Kimberly Stewart. Blech.

Costar Elodie Otto (who says she feels accurately portrayed on the reality show and insists she's no longer mad at Montag) offered her opinion to PEOPLE. "The thing that I don't know that's real or not is Heidi and Spencer's relationship. To me they don't really look in love, so we'll see."

Kristin Cavallari
Here are some recent pics of her and her boyfriend, Nick Zano (? never heard of him). I'm surprised I haven't seen much of her since Laguna. Of all the kids on that show, I thought she had the most "star" potential. I know most people don't take her seriously, but she had a certain charisma about her, in my opinion.
Anyway, here's her and Nick:

The Truth About Laguna Beach
You want the real reality of what happened that night in Cabo, when Alex M. confronted Jessica about Jason? Hint...It was more then just a kiss. Ok, so this goes waaay back to Season 2, but, according to an inside source, "Before Cabo they showed Jessica meeting Jason at the golf course. They hung out all day and later that night they went to a party at Talan's house. Talan was trying to pull a fast one and not invite the MTV producers to the party. At the party (while Jason is supposedly still dating Alex M) one of Alex M's friends walked in on Jessica giving Jason head in the bathroom. The friend that walked in immediately called Alex M and tell her. Alex M and Taylor jump into Taylor's car to go kick Jessica's ass but get pulled over by the cops [on the way]. Instead of playing it cool, Taylor throws the fake id she has in her wallet into the back seat. The cops get suspicious and ask her what it was, do a search of the car, find the fake id, interrogate Alex M and get her to admit she has a fake id too. Cuff both of them and take them down to the station where MTV has to bail them out. So in one night, Alex M found out that her boyfriendis a cheater and gets arrested." Not to mention loses her fake ID. Anyway, when Alex first found out about Jason, she happened to be at dinner with Kristin and Alex H. (as shown on MTV), and Alex M. tells them that Jason and Jessica hooked up. So, the next day, Kristin and Alex H. ask Jess about it and, as we see, she denies it. However, they later find out it's true, which is why they are not speaking to her on the trip to Cabo.
According to the source, other random Laguna Beach gossip includes:
-Laguna Beach is real, as in not scripted, but many of the situations are re-enacted or set up.
-Casey's step-dad created the frozen burrito.
-Deter is a camera whore. Anytime the producers put together a scene hetries to tag along to get face time.*
-MTV is hated around Laguna Beach. People that are not on the show are always throwing beer cans and stuff at the cameras.*
Ok, I'd like to add to this, actually, with my own personal knowledge. I've read on more then a few websites that Jason has been in and out of rehab more then a few times (hence why we didn't see him on the 1st season) and has a history of becoming violent-drunk. At one point, he apparently smashed Alex M's head into a wall, which may explain why, in one of the later episodes of Season 2, Alex M shows up @ LC's party, sees Jason and quickly leaves. He also does coke (duh) and LC's done it with him before (that's no surprise, though).
& with regards to Laguna Beach not being scriped, but scenes being set up, I read something on that, too. Jason admits Jessica was fake, and that they had really broken up a few weeks before that.
& I read some really good shit in October 2005 that answers a lot of general FAQ about Laguna Beach. Here it is:Everything You Wanted to Know About Laguna Beach but Were Afraid to Ask
It Is Real...Kinda, Sorta: This "dramality" is real in the sense that the these are actual high school students and what we see is actually happening in their lives. What's not so real, according to show insiders, is how, where and when these things go down. Believe it or not, the castmembers only "work" Thursday through Sunday (How do I get on this show?), so important "scenes" are often delayed and then set up by producers to make sure they're caught on film.
A few key examples: The now infamous bonfire scene where Jessica first sees Alex M. and Jason together was completely orchestrated by producers. Before the bonfire, the crew spent hours lighting the beach and the mountains in the background before the kids were allowed to interact with each other. When Jason finally arrived, they told him how to enter the scene and where to go. Similarly, the big confrontation in Cabo between Jessica and Alex M. was specifically planned for that night. Producers saw the situation and knew Alex M. would confront Jessica, so they instructed her not to go off on her "man-stealing slut"/calling-the-kettle-black tirade until the cameras were ready.
There's a Reason They Giggle: My spies tell me most of the scenes with the guys or girls talking about a specific dishy subject (like Kristin telling Alex H. how she makes guys like Talan fall in love with her; or Alex M. and Taylor bitching about Kacy; and again, not that I watch this show) are coached by producers. They light the scene, get the cameras rolling, then say, "Talk about why Alex is so mad at you" or "Talk about why Kristin is such a bitch."
This off-camera coaching is actually the reason we often see castmembers laughing when they talk about serious situations. (Kristin, in particular, does it a lot.) They've just been instructed on what to talk about, and it just feels...odd.
The Castmembers Are Bona Fide Celebrities: If the picture at right is any indication, these kids have become big-time A-listers on the Hollywood party circuit. Just ask our Party Girl, they're always on the list. Not only are the LB kids hangin' with Paris and Nicole and Lindsay these days, they can go anywhere and everywhere they want, no matter their age and how many people they bring, and, of course, it's all free.
Most of the castmembers are now living in L.A., partying and pursuing Hollywood dreams with their managers, agents and publicists. While Alex M. is meeting this very week with a few record companies, including Atlantic Records, the rest are trying to become actors, including Kristin,who told me at a recent Us Weekly party, "I wanna do movies. It's been going pretty well. I'm reading some scripts right now and taking acting classes, so it's in the process."
[Dishy side note: Kristin is repped by the same publicist as Lindsay Lohan, and my sources tell me the story Kristin told Rolling Stone--about Lindsay flipping out when she saw Kristin in Talan's bed--is 100 percent true. It happened last spring, so these kids have been mixing with the Hollywood crowd for a long time now.]
All this Hollywood hoopla hasn't exactly been welcomed by the producers, who have fought tooth and nail--with increased pay and exclusivity contracts--to keep these regular kids from becoming stars, since it ruins the original concept of the show. And now they have a serious dilemma on their hands because...
They Are Planning a Third Season: Show insiders tell me producers are currently negotiating their individual contracts for season three and have to figure out how to shoot another season, given that their current cast have all graduated and are bed-hopping their way into Us Weekly. I'm told they're toying with the idea of introducing a few new kids that are seniors this year (they're casting now), but ultimately, the show will focus on the current cast, living in Los Angeles, and will pop back into Laguna from time to time. They'll try to focus on the drama that doesn't involve Hollywood or Lindsay or Paris. So, expect a lot of teeth brushing and butt scratching.
There Are Storylines You Don't See: Even though we've never seen it on the show, Stephen and Jason are actually good friends. So much so that Stephen is perfectly fine with the fact that Jason and Stephen's former flame LC have been getting, um, cozy, from time to time (I'm guessing because he still has the hots for Kristin).
The Kids Aren't as Wealthy as They're Made Out to Be: Word is, one of the castmembers actually lives in a trailer park, and most of the castmembers live fairly middle-income existences (at least by O.C. standards). That said, LC and Kristin are seriously loaded. So loaded, in fact, that according to my spies, they're somewhat competitive--when LC's family built that humongous house overlooking the Pacific, Kristin's family felt the need to follow suit.*
