Evening Quickies: “The Hills” Movie Is Coming To A Theater Near You, Maybe

Jessica WakemanAugust 9, 2011 //
  • Someone in Hollywood thinks MTV’s reality show “The Hills” has big-screen blockbuster written all over it. Audrina Patridge told Ryan Seacrest’s radio show that the girls’ nixed a “Hills” movie before because “we were kind of all just so fed up with each other.” Now that they’ve had a break, though, she thinks “maybe” a movie will happen after all. Please … just … no. [US Weekly]
  • “Gilmore Girls” creator Amy Sherman-Palladino is adapting The Nanny Diaries for ABC. I hope it’s better than that terrible movie version. [TV Guide]
  • A very exciting behind-the-scenes “Mad Men” photo shows all the pointing, laughing, and Blackberry-reading that goes on while filming. [Entertainment Weekly]

Heidi Montag And Spencer Pratt Faked Their Divorce, Are Struggling With Life After Infamy

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 2, 2011 //

“At that point, we were pulling our last cards. We felt the hot-air balloon losing its gas. And at that stage, our income would be selling the photo that would go along with the divorce. … What we learned is: You can be too famous … We were all getting paid to be people we weren’t for so long that you stop—there’s no line. The gauge is gone. The gray area is gone … What real job—what political world—would want Spencer Pratt, with the stigma I’ve attached to my name?”

—Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag talk to The Daily Beast about life now that their 15 minutes of fame have fully elapsed. In the piece, Spencer fully admits that he and Heidi made themselves into villains on “The Hills” and that they faked their breakup just to get a little press. And yet, he seems to have some remorse about the whole thing. Which makes me almost feel sorry for him.

Until I read the quote after the jump. Keep reading »

Heidi Montag, Jake Pavelka & Danielle Staub Starring In A Reality Show. Like, Together.

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comApril 5, 2011 //

So, Heidi Montag, Jake Pavelka, and Danielle Staub walk into a bar. No, sadly, this is not a joke. Apparently, this is a new reality TV show. The three were in Los Angeles filming the series today and were photographed around a lunch table together. We have no idea what exactly the show will be, especially considering that the only thing uniting these three is that fact that they were controversy lightening rods on “The Hills,” “The Bachelor,” and “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” respectively. Maybe they’ll team up to fight crime? Or perhaps this is a new-fangled “Three’s Company”? Or a porno? Your guess is as good as mine. But, gulp, we will be watching.

Justin Bobby Look-A-Like Takes New York!

Amelia McDonell-ParryDecember 6, 2010 //

Splash identified this long-haired fella as Justin Bobby Brescia, the filthy-hot douchebag who romanced Audrina Patridge on “The Hills.” And I downloaded it, planning on posting a quick pic about him and his new girlfriend. But I was duped! This is not Justin Bobby. (The inset is the real Justin Bobby.) Were I not so comatose today, I would have used my noggin and thought, Wait, that can’t be Justin Bobby — he cut his hair and there’s no way its grown out already. This is just some lesser filthy-hot Justin Bobby. A rich man’s Justin Bobby, if you will. Splash, I demand my money back. Keep reading »

How Much Do The “Teen Moms” Make Compared To Other Reality TV Stars?

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comNovember 1, 2010 //

The internet is abuzz with some news about “Teen Moms” Maci Bookout, Farrah Abraham, Amber Portwood, and Catelynn Lowell. A figure has gotten out on how much MTV pays them for participating in the series. And considering that all of them struggle financially on the show—Farrah gets a job as a waitress, Maci worries about paying bills, and Catelynn is freaked about the price of community college—they actually make pretty good money, a reported $60K to $65K per season or about $5,000 per episode. [Huffington Post]

Now, that is a lot of money, especially considering that 75 percent of teen moms who aren’t on MTV end up on welfare within five years. It’s enough money that it should alter the making-ends-meet theme of the show, and it is more than many professionals make in a year. But instead of berating these teens, I’d like to put their paychecks in the context of what other reality TV stars make. And let’s just say that compared to the $1.25 million dollars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt made in 2008 for their insane on-camera antics, this is pocket change. Keep reading »

“The Hills” Are Alive: Lauren Conrad To Do A New Show On MTV

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comSeptember 27, 2010 //

You’ve been going through Lauren Conrad withdrawal ever since she walked away from “The Hills,” right? No? OK, well, then you probably won’t be very excited about the news that Lauren will once again be starring in an MTV reality series. She revealed to Ryan Seacrest on Friday that a new show about her life is in the works—and this time it’ll focus exclusively on her work life as she designs and markets her clothing line. In other words, it will be all the blah of “The Hills” with none of the juiciness. Keep reading »

Quotable: Audrina Patridge Has A $5,000 Chanel Surfboard And You Don’t

Jessica WakemanAugust 17, 2010 //

“The most expensive thing I bought recently was a $5,000 Chanel surfboard. I’m using it as décor in my bedroom until I get really good at surfing. It’s too pretty to risk chipping it.”

Brody Jenner Gets A Mohawk

Susannah BreslinAugust 3, 2010 //

Look, it’s reality heartthrob Brody Jenner leaving Katsuya restaurant last night, and homeboy is rocking a mohawk. I guess this is what happens when you start dating Avril Lavigne. You go from Malibu to punk rock with one easy-to-manage haircut. [LA, 8/1/10] Keep reading »

Spencer Pratt Says Marriage To Heidi Montag Was “A Show”

Jessica WakemanAugust 2, 2010 //

Now that the ink is dry on Heidi Montag‘s divorce filing, Spencer Pratt is spilling the beans. Apparently, the epic Spencer/Heidi love story was as fake as Heidi’s new body. “I love Heidi but our marriage was a show – it was part of ‘The Hills’ world,” Spencer said. “And that world is on a sound stage.” But he also alluded to the fact that the couple just wanted different things from their fame whore lives: “It’s clear that reality TV-fame-loving Spencer Pratt does not fit with my ex-wife Heidi Montag’s ambitions for a motion picture actor/pop star career and being a single sex symbol for the world,” he continued. Doesn’t this add a whole new sad layer to the story of Heidi’s 10 plastic surgeries? One wonders if after spending so much time with her loathsome ex just to be famous, Heidi Montag started to loathe herself, too. [People] Keep reading »
