Lauren Conrad

I, in my life, grew up on the hills.

There was a time where Heidi and Spencer and Lauren Conrad were not fucking with one another and they never crossed paths on the show.

And I got to see Heidi and Spencer live in a house in Malibu with zero friends and no connection to the outside world.

And it started fucking with Heidi Montag's head, which is why she ended up doing all this shit that she started doing because she didn't have girlfriends.

You don't think I'm gonna be able to guess by the smell? No.

got him i will say i redesigned my bedroom after lauren conrad's bedroom in the hills the hills

oh my god yeah

i said i like her bedroom so i redesigned i painted it myself i couldn't tell you what it looked like whoa yeah yeah did you do like

you remember that Elsie Style book?

Do you remember Lauren Conrad

when she had the book Style? Yeah, but my agents are begging me and they've been begging me for a long time and they're like, please just write a few sentences.

I've been blowing them off.

one.

So there were, there were so many to kind of choose from, but when I was typing it, when I was writing the book, I could like hear Lauren saying it in my head.

And like, I get a picture with a drink in the alleyway.

Those people loved alleyways and talking in alleyways and pulling Spencer's always driving up to pull people into alleyways.

And I think there was... less conversation about that you know it was before social media was social media was still so new when the hills was on and so I think when I was watching it the first time I didn't really think a lot about what is real what is fake I'm someone who when I watch reality tv I just assume it's a bit of both and it doesn't really bother me I don't know maybe I'm like authenticity maybe if I was concerned about that I should watch something else a different genre of tv but But I think now when I was like, I rewatched it kind of for, I think four times all the way through writing the book.

And because we talk about that so much now in reality, TV has changed so much since the Hills was first on.

I thought about it more and I would kind of analyze it more and I would, I always say I look at Lauren's nail polish to see kind of continuity errors there'd be something that's supposed to be like the same day and her nail polish is like

three different you know unless she's had like three

This is going to sound lame, but I would do anything to party at Les Deux in like 2007.

I'd probably be with like hanging out with Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth, but you look around and everyone's there, right? Like, Paris is there, Lindsay's there, Hayden's there.

Like every single person is at Les Deux.

And if I could just have one night in Les Deux in 2007, I'd be so happy.

But if you guys found out who it was, you'd be like, oh my God, Kelly hung out with that person.

and I mean that's not really true I'm just trying to think like these aren't people who you would know but like looking at how they hold themselves you'd be like oh I'm shocked you even hung out with that person and I guess like yeah you gotta experience things and if you don't like it you don't go back and she's never went back so that's what I have to say about the Peter Thiel list if you think I defend Lauren Conrad You haven't seen me defriend Sophia Bush.

And then the last thing I wanted to talk about, because a lot of people are picking this apart.

If you watched One Tree Hill real time, you know that Lucas and Brooke broke up because of Sophia Bush and Chad's relationship.

It's called You Know What You Did, The Hills.

We discuss where the idea for the show came from, why Lauren Conrad is the perfect reality TV star, and I give my hot take on how the Scandaval scandal was a poorly planned publicity stunt.

I hope you enjoy my conversation with Lisa.

Well, I am very excited to talk to you, Lisa.

I just think the way we consume it, we talk about it, we engage with it is much different than it was in the time period when The Hills was on.

All right, let's talk about The Hills.

And I got to tell you, I have a six degrees of separation with Lauren Conrad.

Okay, I want to hear about this.

Okay, I'll pretend I was

Lauren Conrad.

Okay, I'll say Lauren Conrad.

Yeah, like, sure.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

And so it was Lauren Conrad and someone else who I don't remember.

And then these two kind of douchey looking dudes.

And I was like, it would be so funny to just walk into frame while they're shooting.
