The Hills

[dazed&confused]

I can't believe Audrina actually considered believing that rumour..I wouldn't put it past JB..but Lauren..come on. Ridiculous.

 

[I_Want_That_One]

i watched this weeks epi after not watching for weeks and laughed my head off. Every time Audrina asked L.C or JB that, I'd start cracking up. This chick is a horrible actress and its so obvious this was a publicity stunt (c'mon if even Justin Bobby finds it ridiculous, you know you've hit it pretty low).

 

[Princess2008]

Audrina is an idiot thats for sure. I feel bad for Lauren because she has lost one more friend. I understand her concerns but she should have dropped it once LC and justin denied it.

 

[glamorousenvy]

how is whitney going to be in s5 if shes off in NY with her show ?

She won't be on The Hills anymore, just on her own show.

I'm sure I'll end up just ditching The Hills altogether for The City. Its basically become infested with Speidi and Audrina, which is making it way too easy to not watch. Really, theres only so much more of Audrina's teeth, Spencer's bitching and Heidi's whining I can take.

Hopefully The City will bring more to the table, like The Hills did its first season. I just hope it won't get too repetitive like its pre-successor. Plus with DVF and Olivia Palermo, where can you go wrong?

^ You forgot to mention Audrina's fake boobs and Spencer's beige facial hair

 

[r_r_r]

This week, The Hills teaches us a life lesson (yet again!). You know that friend you’ve basically given up on? The one who returns one out of every five e-mails — usually with a "Hey, been soooo busy at work lately, let’s totes do something soon" — and who borrowed your favorite cocktail dress, and then didn’t return it in time for your cousin’s wedding (so you had to buy something new … in this economy)? Don’t dismiss her quite yet; she might just surprise you by volunteering when you ask for help moving (full disclosure: We’ve never been that friend). You see, last night — much to our surprise and delight — our old, oft-disappointing friend The Hills pulled through with an awesome, action-packed episode. So let’s get to it.
We open with Audrina and Chiara, and Aud immediately launches into the evening’s main drama: She heard a rumor Lauren hooked up with Justin! Granted, she heard this rumor from someone named Dino, who had to get it off his "conscious" (aw, sic). We learn that Lauren has already denied everything, but Justin won’t call her back about it. Hey, Dino: You shouldn’t try to dupe someone who’s so easily duped — bad form!
Did everyone hear that Speidi eloped this week? Doesn’t that sort of kill the "will Heidi ever realize that Spencer is the Devil" drama? Anyway, Holly — or Little Miss Traitor, as Spencer calls her — drops in at the apartment to see Heidi, but Spencer’s there instead. He says that both he and Heidi have "unloyal" sisters. Holly, in a minidress and go-go boots (why?), glares at him. She finds Heidi at work and they fight, blah, blah. The only interesting part is that Heidi lost her office in her demotion and now has to work in a cubicle. Ha! Join the club, Heid-ster. Then, as they are wont to do, Spencer and Heidi argue once again, and he gives her the thumbs-up, once again. Moving right along…
Back to the good stuff: Lauren and Lo talk about the rumor. Lauren thinks “Audrina is crazy,” (this becomes a theme), and of course, L.C. turns the whole thing against Audrina, implying she’s a bad friend for even thinking Lauren could have hooked up with J.B. In her misguided, self-righteous bitchiness, Lauren becomes very, very funny. “I couldn’t resist his charms, his manners, his impeccable hygiene … I was under the Justin Bobby spell!” she jokes. Has she been reading our recaps? Audrina comes over (in a white hat to signal surrender, perhaps?), and Lauren — with a still-visible ’stache — calls her “crazy” and “insane.” Justin Bobby finally appears, drinking Merlot and sporting a slicked-back do — dude has more looks than Madonna. “It’s not only you, Audrina, it’s affected all of us,” he says to her nonsensically. In the end, Audrina confronts Lauren while they're at a club (not a great plan, Aud), and we get the kicker of the night. “I would rather *********** than hook up with him. He’s disgusting; Justin disgusts me,” screams Lauren. Oh. My. Goodness. That is the most awesome Hills moment of the year. “You did this, I didn’t do anything,” she continues, true to form. Audrina retorts: “You’re doing the same thing to me as you did to Heidi!” Truer words have never been spoken. Lo just sits there and watches, of course.
Next week: Lauren and Audrina continue to fight, and Spencer and Stephanie’s nana shows up! Weird.
And now, our Unequivocal Hills Reality Index:
As Real As Lauren Is Smug
• Lauren and Justin Bobby's innocence. No way did these two hook up.
• Audrina’s gullibility. She did believe the rumor — only someone as blinded by love as Audrina could think her best friend wanted her scrubby boyfriend.
• Lo’s visible enjoyment of Lauren’s ****-talking. You know she was like, "Yes, finally!"
As Fake As Heidi’s Oddly Crimped Hair
• The rumor being planted by someone named Dino: That’s definitely some sort of secret acronym for a meddling MTV producer.
• Heidi/Holly/Spencer. Sigh. Will someone please recap these parts for us from now on?
• Lauren’s assertion that this situation is the last straw in her friendship with Audrina. Yeah, right. She’s been trying to get out for years.

The tvgasm recap for The Hills was hilarious. I had to post it.

The Hills: Trouble In Pseudo-Goth Paradise

Oh my God, you guys.
The unthinkable has happened.
"The Hills" this week........
was awesome.
It almost feels like an "emergency episode" because we're brought to this very specific subject in the middle of it; we don't see its beginning, middle and end. Also, it has very little to do with the bogus storylines they've been building over the course of the season. In fact, I would recommend that you actually WATCH this episode, because its finest moments are hard to capture in words, even in my eloquently humorous way. It's almost as though something REAL happened and they had to drop everything to cover it. Well, almost everything. Heidi's still in this episode.
During the recap at the top of the episode, LC says that after Blahdrina heard a rumor about her, she did the worst thing a friend could possibly do. Umm, sleep with LC's brother? Use her vibrator while LC's out shopping? Stole some of her weed? Nope, Blahdrina believed the rumor.
At the cafeteria at Epic Records, Chiara sighs and asks Blahdrina what's up, surely prepared for another tedious conversation about Pigpen's lack of enthusiasm for Blahdrina's taupe den of love. Chiara remarks that Blah looks really angry, but she does it with the widest grin I've seen since LC went out on that pseudo-date with Stephen Colletti. I'm pretty sure Chiara hates Blahdrina. I'm pretty hopeful that Chiara reads TVGasm.

Flipit's secret identity?

No, Flipit's way more fun than Chiara possibly could be. So Blahdrina scrunches her face into her classic "poor me" smile/wince and says that Chiara has no idea what she's been through this week. Chiara's face darkens and she asks solemnly, "What is it?" I think she may be trying to stifle a laugh. "This guy Dino, I've known him for two years, he called me and said 'I need to get something off my conscious,'" Blahdrina begins. Okay, firstly: Never believe a guy named Dino. This should be self-evident. He's either from Staten Island or he is the family pet of a family with the surname Flintstone. Secondly, don't believe someone who says they have something on their "conscious." It's not the same thing as a conscience; therefore they could be describing a venereal disease.
"He said that basically, Pigpen and Lauren hooked up," Blahdrina bomb-drops. Requisite gasps all around, except for those of us who already heard this. What is this "basically" business? How do you know Dino didn't just see them sneak into a back room together, in which case they were probably planning a surprise party for you? It's a sitcom rule. And this is "basically" a really boring sitcom. Blahdrina admits that she called LC right when she heard, and that LC vehemently denied the whole matter, then hung up on her (hell yes!) but she doesn't know what to believe. Hmmmm, maybe you should believe your one semi-sane friend? Blah sheds a few tears, which look pretty real, actually, and Chiara waddles over in her 1960s housecoat to give Blah a bear hug and tell her she's stronger than this. I'm sorry, but I beg to differ. Blahdrina is WAY weaker than this.

"There there. Let's get you back to your crib."
At Lo/Lau's house, LC storms into Lo's bedroom in quite a tizzy and declares that Blahdrina is crazy. I think she just needs a father figure. LC recounts the tale of their cell phone convo, wherein Blahdrina accused, LC laughed, and Blahdrina re-accused. See, if this were set up like everything else, we would have seen that conversation. Hell, we would have met Dino. "It's insane! It's SO INSANE!" LC rants. "That's laughable!" Lo agrees. "You would never do that!"

"Can we say CUCKOOOOO!"
"It's insulting on SO many levels," LC continues. I love that what neither of them is saying is that it's crazy mostly because Pigpen always looks like he just rolled around in a sewage plant in New Jersey. LC lists the falsified ways that Blahdrina now thinks of her: 1) As a bad friend. 2) As a shady person. 3) As a sl*t. 4) As the kind of person that would have sex with a homeless dude who cheats on his girlfriend. Come to think of it... I think she just described Blahdrina.

"Ooh, shady's the worst. Just ask Brody." ​

"Ohhhhh YES, BLAHDRINA, I did it, I just COULDN'T RESIST his CHARMS and his IMPECCABLE HYGIENE!!!" LC yells. Oh my Lord, I can't tell you how much I love it when the icy, impersonal exterior of Lauren Conrad comes crumbling down and the cameras are there to catch it. It hasn't happened in like three seasons. And evidently Blahdrina has made fast work of tearing down LC's good reputation. "She called BRODY! She called FRANKIE! And they all called me!" LC moans. And I think Bladrina even called TMZ or something, because it was all over the 'Gasm comment board by the time my next recap was up that week. Hmmm, maybe Chiara IS Flipit after all.

At least Lo got her shopping done before this crisis.

LC mentions that Blah is supposed to stop by, but unless she apologizes, their friendship is totally dunzo. At the Aryan compound, Spencer, with newly frosted tips, prepares a delectable meal of toasted bread for himself while he... continues to be unemployed. Holly knocks on the door and he lets her in without a word, or even an offer of toast. He immediately calls her "Little Miss Traitor" (at once demeaning AND accusatory - how efficient!). She ignores him, because she is a GROWN-UP, and asks whether Heidi is around. He makes her ask again, and this time she phrases the question as WHERE is Heidi. "Not here," he mutters simply. He refuses to tell her where his dumb*** damsel is, replying only that she doesn't want to see Holly. You know, I think now would be a good time to bring up the fact that I just read the "How To Spot A Domestic Abuser" list in Dear Abby and the Spencer portrayed on this show meets 12 of the 15 criteria. ("Does this person mistreat their family or friends? Does this person hold grudges? Are you this person's only friend? Does this person try to cut you off from your friends?") And I can only guess what their sex life is like (actually, I'd rather not). I can only hope that MTV shows Spencer in this light because they want girls to recognize when their boyfriend is a total douche who should die alone? Hmm, maybe.
Moving along, Holls asks Spencer very politely to let Heidi know she came over. He continues to be an ******* by calling her a mooch who's Hangin' With Ms. Conrad. He notes that it was his sister who told him, and that this is one more thing he and Heidi have in common: they have "unloyal" sisters. You know, it's hard to be a grammarian when you've never been past high school. Something else he and Heidi have in common is that they're both jacking off a selfish jerkwad.
Holly gets all "Debbie Colorado" on his *** and insists that she AND Stephanie have had Heidi's interests at heart, and furthermore, he's a dickhead. Well, she doesn't say that exactly; she says he cares only about himself, which he doesn't deny. After he promises begrudgingly to tell Heidi she came over, Holly finally leaves with an eyeroll the size of Montana.
At Lau/Lo's, LC is paying bills and neatly stacking them beside each other, emotionless and efficient as a psychotic mom who cleans compulsively when she gets upset. Blahdrina enters and they have a stare-off in the kitchen to see who breaks first.

It's looking rough. Blahdrina's wearing her douche beret, and she's prepped for battle.

LC coolly informs Blah that until she treats her like a friend, she will not talk to her like one. She asks why Blahdrina is such a nutty fubar. "YOU KNOW WHY," Blah replies coldly. "Did you hook up with Pigpen or NOT?" LC laughs in that sad, I'm-about-to-lose-another-friend way and tells Blah she's insane. "Are you serious right now?" she asks. "I'm DEAD serious." LC returns the favor by ending her giggle attack and telling Blahdrina that she doesn't care what she thinks of her, she just needs to stop telling other people **** about her. With that, Blahdrina and her zombie eyes whimper and storm out of her former non-home.

"Dear God, it's me, LC. Please send me someone who's got a grip." ​

She scurries back to her Blahteau, an ugly urban jungle of beige walls and fake potted plants, and calls Pigpen to leave a message that rivals the length of any of my grandmother's voicemails, which is saying a LOT. In Pigpen's absence, she is forced to say all of the signposting, story-driving things she needs to his inbox, explaining that she's left numerous voicemails and texts to him, that she feels sick inside over this, and that he'd better call her, goddammit. Not like she's crazy or anything, but she might cut him if he doesn't get back to her pretty soon.

"Hi Pigpen, it's me. They can pretty much put any words in my mouth from this angle."
I wonder, is this what it would take to make her stop seeing him? Would she FINALLY come to her senses if he screwed around on her with her friend, not some faceless sl*t?
Across town, Holly has taken matters into her own hands by paying a visit to Heidi at work, dressed like an extra from "Working Girl," complete with plaid shoulder-padded blazer and gold link-strapped purse. Ughh. She says hello to Heidi (who doesn't even stand to greet her, let alone hug her own sister) and shows distaste for Heidi's lack of an office.

"Ew, smells like demotion in here."

Heidi, rocking the battered wife/Michael Jackson combo look, wearily explains that she used to have an office, "but I ran into a... bit of tr..trouble at XIV the other week... so.... now... cubicle." Is she drunk? Oy. The girl's looking worse for wear. Can you believe she's only 22? She speaks with the exhaustion of a 49-year-old former trophy wife who's just been divorced and now has to get a job of her own after years of ordering the maid around. Life is tough sometimes.

"I kind of want to take a nap. From my whole life."
Holly asserts that she's been feeling hurt by everything that's happened between them, and that she's never felt so unwelcome, not even by that creepy guy who ran a hostel in Slovakia. "I feel like I've done nothing but try to make you feel at home, and now I hear you're living with Lauren... or what... ever..." Heidi slurs. Holls breaks it down and tells Heidi that her problem has nothing to do with her - it's all about Spencer (isn't it always?). She brings up the valid point that if someone really loved her, they'd want every part of her life to be great - not push everyone away from her (HELLOOOOO, abuser checklist!). Heidi brushes off her concerns, until Holls asks if he ever told her that she came by the other day.

"Dr. 90210's gonna kill me, but this scene kinda requires some kind of emotion."
Blahdrina meets up with her beau at a tapas bar, and he looks like if James Dean fell into a vat of Dapper Dan hair gel.

Rebel Without A Scrotum
Or maybe if they cast Keanu Reeves as Dracula.

"I really wish they'd cast Winona as Blahdrina."

Dude, the dude wears black nailpolish. Sigh, there's no hope. Blahdrina asks if they can talk about him and Lauren. His eyes widen with sarcasm and asks what there is to talk about. I can kind of see why she's upset, because he doesn't answer the question directly; he asks how she could think he would do that (but seriously, a prissy b*tch like LC? SOOO not his style). Faster than I can type the words out, he affirms, "I told you no, it didn't happen, and if you don't want to believe me, I don't know what else to tell you." I hate to say this, but it's the only answer you can give if you're really innocent. You can only tell the truth so many times before you start diverting from the question.
Pigpen adjusts his black velvet blazer and turns the tables on Blah, telling her that she cannot talk to him the way she did on the phone. "I know..." she says meekly. "No, you don't know. I would truly never say those things to you," he responds calmly, then recites a number of bleeped-out curses that I'm totally confident Blah used in one of her hourlong voicemails. She insists she said those things because he never called her back and she was freaking out, but he asks, "Why would I want to talk to someone who's batshiat crazy and saying those things to me?" (That batshiat crazy part was mine, but we all know he's thinking it.) He threatens to leave, saying he doesn't want to deal with her because "this is f---in' bull----." He calls her immature, and when she explains that she asked Lauren about it too, he instantly calms, smiles, and asks what Lauren said. Maybe he figures she said the same thing we all thought: "What? Ew!"

 

[stateofbliss]

cont'd...

He calls her out on pretending to plead with him like she's innocent, but that act won't go far as long as he keeps bringing up her telephone tantrums. She sighs that she's lost Lauren over it, and he squirms in his chair. "I don't know what's gonna happen," she continues. "You know what? I gotta go. This is so stupid," Pigpen says, and I kind of admire him for at least not bending to the will of her attention-grabbing ploys. He calls her fictitious, not right, a dude, and then sweeps his cape over his face and steals into the night.

"Dang. Now who am I going to dissect Nine Inch Nails lyrics with?"
Due to an unforeseen loss of friends, LC is forced to hang out with Stephanie outside of Fit'Em. Bummer. She meets up with the lesser blonde at a coffeehouse and I wonder why Steph always stares at LC with that creepy, robotic admiration before any conversation has begun.

She's like an evil Cabbage Patch doll about to kill her owner.
LC prepares to drop the bomb on Steph, but apparently already Steph knows via text from Blah herself. Damn, did she SMS this **** or what?? Come to think of it, I even remember Blahdrina talking about it on Letterman. LC is appalled. She explains the fallout to Steph, who stands up for Blahdrina by reminding LC that Pigpen HAS hooked up with her friends before. Maybe so, but surely they were skank monsters, right? It is simply not possible that Pigpen is hot enough, even in person, to melt the frigid chastity of Lauren Conrad and her pesky standards. LC tells Steph about the unsuccessful chat at the LoLau Castle and wonders whether their friendship can survive. "Are you even going to sit down with her again?" Stephanie asks.

"Without precondition? That's just dangerous."
Heidi and her crimp-tastic hairdo arrive home, where Spencer is still in the kitchen. You know, for all of the complaining about mooches that Spencer does, how come nobody ever asks him what HE does for a living?

I hear puppet masters are in high demand these days.
Heidi launches into a complaint about her new cubicle, which amuses Spencer to no end. GOD. He is such a gem. Sometimes I wish these two crazy kids would just have babies already! Heidi asks Spencer how his day was, whether he saw anybody, subtle subtle subtle, and he answers a simple "no." And with that, pouting time has begun.

Don't you miss the Heidi that barely worried about skipping classes at Fit'Em?
At the ever-so-lonely Blahteau, Blah and sister Casey are having an eyeshadow-off. The goal is to see how many inches of makeup they can put on and still pretend to have a conversation about a lame (but probably faithful) boyfriend. I think Casey's winning.

"Maybe you should talk to him... Oooh! I just raised an eyebrow! 10 bonus points!"
Blahdrina declares that she is ready to talk to Lauren now that she's calmed down, but still vows not to apologize, since there's clearly no reason to do so.

"I can move each feature of my face individually."
Later, at Winston's...

I'm hoping this will be symbolic of Blahdrina's intent to shut the hell up.

Mmmm, nothing like an exposed spinal column to make the boys come runnin'.​

Blahdrina tells LC that they need to talk. LC's eyes glaze over with the serene defensiveness to which she's become accustomed after five years of absolutely no privacy and an array of backstabbing b*tches constantly hollering at her. "I never accused you, Lauren," Blah begins, "I just asked you." LC replies that she asked her several times, and, much like Amy Winehouse's response to her producers' requests for a stint at rehab, "I said no, no, no!" She remarks that it's sad Blahdrina doesn't believe her. "Do you understand what you're accusing me of?" she says. Blahdrina meekly asks, "What was I supposed to do? I asked you!"
"YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE ME." Lauren's face is getting all red and puffy, and there are veins popping in her forehead. "Because I'm your friend and I've never been anything but to you. Tell me what I've done to make you think I'm capable of this." And here's where Bladrina gets the kooky out: "You want me to make you a list? You guys HAVE been flirting..."

"WHAAAAAAAAT THE FUUUUUUUUCK??????"
Dude, she IS a nut. I mean, LC has never even run into Pigpen in the kitchen during breakfast or anything. She very understandably freaks out at this notion. "FLIRTING! Blahdrina, I would rather *********** than hook up with him. He is disgusting. He DISGUSTS ME." Blahdrina knows she's losing the battle for audience sympathy, so she goes for the gold: "You're doing the same thing that you did to Heidi to me." At this point, I'm pretty sure that LC has given up on trying to save the friendship. "No, I'm not, because you're WAY worse than HEIDI." Damn girl, them's fightin' words. We all thought there was nothing worse than the rhino-Toxed collagen queen. Blahdrina's eyes widen as though someone has just insulted her mother's fidelity. "NO I'M F---ING NOT!" she seethes. LC weeps, exhausted, and tries to reason with Blahdrina, "You know me!" Blahdrina has no acceptable comeback, so she pulls one out that she probably heard in a movie on TBS that afternoon: "Apparently not."

By the by, who is this random woman sitting in their booth and listening?
Blahdrina and the mystery woman (producer?) leave as LC sobs into Lo's designer dress. I sit back in my La-Z-Boy, sip some whiskey and marvel at the awesomeness of REAL reality TV. I mean, okay, maybe some parts of it were fake, but I think that a lot of it was relatively authentic. We haven't gotten an episode like this in months. Years, perhaps. LC was yelling/crying so hard I thought she might have an aneurism. A friend of mine told me today that she heard Blahdrina made up the rumor herself because she thought she wasn't getting enough airtime on the show. But, as we all know... you can't believe everything you hear.
I leave you with happy wishes for a gluttonous, long weekend and some extra screengrabs of everybody finding out that Heidi just got more plastic surgery. XOXOsnapp

^ Hahaha

Thank you for posting that. Oh tvgasm. It got me through Laguna Beach. It will get me through The Hills.

 

[nicky25]

that is so funny! i watched the episode today and i couldn't believe it, Audrina is really that pathetic or was this a publicity stunt? was Lauren in on it, because she looked Genuinely upset, and i felt so bad for her, i would have slapped the **** out of Audrina and said ' i made you biotch!' hehe. i love this show for the drama but this show frustrated the hell out of me!

Lauren , get some real friends, not skanks like Heidi and Audrina who are just there for their two minutes of fame!

 

[Manuva]

That episode was ridiculous (but also, kind, of amazing). How could Audrina believe that? It just wasn't realistic. When she confronted Justin Bobby (swoon ) he came off actually normal...and calm and she just seemed crazy.

Still, I can't wait for next week's episode!

 

[e-v-elina]

i love holly's hair

 

[loladonna]

This episode made me so mad. I could not believe how stupid Audrina was being. Asking your so-called friend if she hooked up with your man 4 or 5 times AFTER she's already denied it is beyond insulting. Audrina came off like a complete pyscho especially when she was leaving the voicemail for Justin.

It seemed like Heidi's makeup increased in every scene. Her eye makeup at work was ridiculous.

 

[lmelanie]

dear god i love justin bobby...he needs his own show.

 

[ckashie]

It seriously cracks me up how TVGasm call JB Pigpen He did himself a huge favour by cutting his hair though!

 

[Princess2008]

The show is getting to be good again, I only wish less Spencer and Heidi!

‘The Hills’ Learns About Trust and We Learn About Nana

12/2/08 at 2:38 PM

Comment3Comment3Comments

Audrina weeps for all that has been lost. If only she could figure out what those things are.Photo: Courtesy of MTV

Well, folks, it was good while it lasted. Last week’s drama-filled episode was gone in the blink of an eye (well, a 22-minute blink), only to be followed by another stinker. BOO! HISS! The highlight of this week was the introduction of The Hills’ first octogenarian — Nana Pratt — which was kind of odd (did she even know she was on TV?), but nevertheless amusing (Nana’s an even worse actress than Heidi! Heh). So let’s get on with it, shall we?
Lauren and Lo are in L.C.’s room, and they’re still talking about how Audrina accused Lauren of hooking up with Justin Bobby. Lo keeps talking about trust, and lack of trust, and the need for trust. These girls are really insufferable. Lauren states that if Audrina’s actually sorry about what she did, she’ll grant her forgiveness. Ah, Queen Lauren, you are so generous with your minions!
Over at Epic Records, Audrina is similarly recapping to Chiara that she got into a "scream-fest" with Lauren, and then went to meet Justin Bobby. Last week, those sneaky MTV editors made it seem like she met with J.B. before she threw down with Lauren; you got us good, editors! Aud says that Justin claimed he lost his phone charger, which is why he didn’t return her calls or texts. Yeah, we’ve used that one before. “Oh, sorry, my phone was totally dead.” “Oh, I was in a basement bar and didn’t get any service.” “Oh, I think it went straight to voice mail. You didn’t leave a message, right?” “Oh, I got a new phone and don’t have your number, which is why I haven’t called you in the past six months.” (Just kidding, friends — we’ve never pulled that last one.)
Meanwhile, Brody takes a break from Bromancing dudes to pay a visit to Lauren, and we’re actually really happy to see him. He cuts to the chase: “Why are you banging Justin Bobby?” he asks L.C. Ha. Brody’s not the brightest bulb, but sometimes he’s pretty funny. Also, we’re 85 percent sure that he had those sunglasses are surgically attached to his head. Finally, Audrina and Lauren meet (again), and Audrina cries (again), and Lauren talks about trust (again), and says that the idea of her hooking up with J.B. is CRAZY (again and again). Audrina has “lost who she is,” and we’re not even going to joke about that. The moral of the story: Audrina should use way less bronzer.
On to the oldie but goody! Spencer pays Stephanie a visit, criticizes her decorating, and then guilts her into visiting their grandmother in Huntington Beach. We learn that Spencer and Heidi see Nana all the time, but Steph hardly ever does. Once they get to Nana’s house, we see a picture of little Stephanie and Spencer; interestingly, Spencer has always looked like the bad guy from an eighties movie, even when he was 7 years old. Nana tries to make peace between the siblings, to no avail, so she invites Stephanie to hang out with her alone the next day. As an aside, can we take a moment to discuss Nana, please? This is a real-life Nana, not a fictional one (like The O.C.’s awesome Nana Cohen). What the HELL is she doing on The Hills? This is too weird, and it’s giving us the creeps. Someone who was born in 1924 should not be on MTV. Anyway, Nana and Stephanie stroll along the waterfront and talk about how Spencer is a douche bag. Nana would rather be left in the dark about all that, and we don’t blame her. That’s it, the end — peace out, Nana.
Next week: Whitney goes back to New York to interview with DVF (time to start prepping for The City, gang!), and Stephanie gets back with Cameron. Snooze-fest! Sigh.
And now, our Unequivocal Hills Reality Index:
As Real As Stephanie’s Brown Hair in That Childhood Picture
• Nana’s cute little hat.
• Audrina’s lip-quivering. For those of you who think she’s faking this whole thing: You’re wrong! Audrina cannot lip-quiver on demand!
• Stephanie’s annoyance at having to see her grandmother again, the following day. We’re not judging, we’re just saying it’s real.
As Fake As Nana’s "Story" About How Seeing Stephanie Is Out of Her Control:
• The fact that Nana tells Stephanie that “life is just a bucket of worms.” Sorry, Nana, but we’re not buying it; that’s definitely something an old person would cook up if an MTV producer asked them to concoct life-advice for their grandkid.
• Audrina’s weird voice-over at the end of her conversation with Chiara.
• Lauren’s assertion that she wouldn’t ever want Audrina to be sad. Ummm, why don’t we believe that?

[Zposen]

Though I highly doubt she wrote this piece herself... It seems that Miss Audrina is still not done milking every publicity opportunity out of the fake rumor that she along with her team created in order to ensure her constant screentime and media exposure.

There are so many things wrong with her blog.... I would not even know where to begin. Lauren of course remains quite naive to befriend this famewhore once again.

On My Mind: My Confrontation With Lauren

In last night's episode, Lauren and I resolved things ~ I guess third time's the charm! After the smoke finally cleared we were both able to sit down and have an actual adult conversation. I didn't ask to be informed, falsely or otherwise, that my "best friend" and my "boyfriend" were involved in some carnal activity. It was very disturbing to have a rumor, that could have easily been killed, thrown in my face over and over again.

I just want to put it on record that never did I EVER call Lauren a "sl*t," "bad friend," "shady person," etc... I simply asked her a question and that's how she interpreted it. I didn't go around town running my mouth either. I confided in Heidi because she knows how Lauren works and when Lauren hung up on me and was acting like a child, I obviously thought the worst. I do always find it interesting to watch the episodes and see what senseless gossip people come up with!

Bottom line, Justin and Lauren treating me like I wasn't worthy of an explanation was almost worse than the rumor itself, and it only got worse the harder I tried to get a genuine answer. Instead, I got screamed at and they both got super defensive. Let me just remind everyone that this rumor didn't appear out of thin air, they were both at the same place at the same time, but apparently what was said to have happened never actually did. I am very glad this whole thing is over and this blog will be the last time I address the issue.

As for Justin, his inexcusable behavior has become somewhat expected at this point and I just want to say that if I were looking for a serious relationship, I would definitely be looking elsewhere! Dealing with a situation such as this one, where the two people who you really need to talk to are the very same two who turn their backs on you and treat you like you mean nothing, has really opened my eyes. I have never been one to hold grudges though, life is just too precious. So I guess I learned a very valuable lesson this week ~ communication is NOT key, so if something bothers you, keep your mouth shut and smile, or you will end up apologizing later.

She is laughable or just a plain idiot... I cannot decide or maybe she thinks that people who watches the show are as dumb as her. Did Lauren not answer her question multiple times with a 'NO' yet she pressed on... that is not exactly someone who wants to squash a rumor.

I think Audrina did this hoping that Lauren would respond and they could begin a feud - which would give Audrina a huge storyline in S5 and put her up front and center. She wants more drama with Lauren, because she probably realizes that Heidi and Spencer will take over S5 with their wedding storyline. Audrina's an aspiring actress. She thinks that more exposure on the Hills will lead to more movie/tv offers.

Thankfully Lauren's ignoring this. Audrina's the childish one.

Lauren seems so over the Hills and so over Audrina. You know she only agreed to meet up with her b/c if she hadn't, Audrina would turn it around and make Lauren look like a bad person for not hearing her side.
