Lauren Conrad apparently wrote a book (totally didn’t know that) and now she’s going to make a movie based off this phantom book. The good news for her is that, unlike The Hills, it is socially acceptable for this to be scripted. So is it still considered a biography if it is based of fabricated events?

The Daily Beast got wind of the contract stating how much each cast member of The Hills makes per episode. I’m really glad to know that they’re being adequately compensated for all of their hard work. They deserve it, don’t they? They’re all such good actors!

Lauren Conrad - $125,000 per episode (her contract also stated that nobody on The Hills could make more than her)
Kristin Cavalari - $90,000 per episode
Heidi Montag - $100,000 per episode
Audrina Patridge – $100,000 per episode
Lo Bosworth – $100,000 per episode
Spencer Pratt – $65,000 per episode
Brody Jenner – $45,000 per episode

Lauren Conrad’s hair stylist, Kristen Ess, explains the tricks of keeping Lauren’s hair looking ‘natural.’

Unless you’re a Broadway star, you most likely can’t sing as well as you act. In addition, if you’re dumb enough to sell your soul to reality television, you probably aren’t literate enough to write a novel, let alone spell your name. That being said, it is beyond me how today’s celebrities think they can be virtuosos and dabble in careers that require talent. Here’s a list of the ten most annoying, basically talentless, celebrity multitaskers. Read it and weep: 

1.) PARIS HILTON: Even though she’s only famous for being daddy’s little future trust-fund baby, Paris has unfortunately soiled the world as an actress, reality television personality, singer, model, fashion designer, perfumer, television producer and porn star. And people wonder why foreigners laugh at Americans. 

2.) KATE MOSS: Aside from blowing coke, Kate has flirted with modeling, acting, singing, designing for TopShop and writing a cookbook! 

3.) LINDSAY LOHAN: When LiLo isn’t taking part in bulimic vomit sessions, she enjoys acting, singing (poorly), modeling, designing leggings and pretending to be a lesbian. 

4.) KANYE WEST: When the people at the Gap send Kanye home after a long day of interning, the Louis Vuitton Don loves to rap, write songs, design shoes, attending shows at fashion week and shave Amber Rose’s head.

5.) LAUREN CONRAD: Although Lauren’s clothing line failed miserably, she avoids suicide by keeping busy with being a reality television personality, appearing in Family Guy, singing, writing her autobiography and attempting to sell the remainder of her clothing line. 

6.) HILARY DUFF: She hasn’t been in the tabloids lately, but Hilary’s repertoire consists of acting, singing, modeling, designing clothes and looking like a horse with those veneers of hers. 

7.) PETE WENTZ: Being a douche bag is tough work, but Wentz still finds time to sing, act in CSI, design hideous clothes and own several bars. 

8.) HEIDI MONTAG: Wiping Spencer Pratt’s ass is awfully time consuming, so props to Heidi for making time to be a reality television personality, actress, singer and model. What an ambitious girl! 

9.) FERGIE: Aside from being the universal spelling-bee champion, Fergie prides herself on her singing, acting and designing careers. G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S. 

10.) NICOLE RICHIE: With a second baby in her belly and a reality television, singing, acting, maternity-wear designing career under her belt, Richie is the ultimate mom.

Seems like Hollywood has taken to a bad habit recently, smoking.  Celebrities like Katherine Heigl, Mary Kate Olsen, Lindsay Lohan, Mischa Barton, Robert Pattinson, and Kate Moss have all been spotted lighting up, but here’s our list of the top 10 celebs that are keeping it healthy.

1. Rihanna

2. Victoria Beckham

3. Leighton Meester

4. Heidi Klum

5. Justin Timberlake

6. Lauren Conrad

7. Usher

8. Chatum Tanning

9. Anne Hathaway

10. Rachel Bilson

Who do you think we missed? And how do you feel about young Hollywood’s decision to popularize smoking?

Last weeks nail polish quest got tons of replys, so this week, we have another nail polish related quest: Would You Paint Each Nail a Diff Color?

As seen on Lauren Conrad, Audrina Patridge, Kim Kardashian, and Rhianna, these 1930s-inspired bangles are awesome! They’ve got rhinestones, they’re stackable, they’re a dream! CC SKYE’s stuff has been featured in tons of magazines and is super popular among billions of celebs.

The Hip Chick – Hot Styles Worn by Celebs

Instead of bashing you all separately, I decided to create a giant post after visiting the MTV website and realizing that so many celebrities have no fashion knowledge, at all. 

Miley Cyrus: Boring, the wardrobe in Hannah Montana The Movie was fabulous, why couldn’t you snag a dress from there? And wtf is going on with the front of that dress?

Lauren Conrad: You can really pull of that ‘California’ look, stick with that. You have a really good body, don’t hide it under that poufy skirt…and is that tie-dye, or is it just me?

Megan Fox: WTF is going on with your hair?! I’m not even going to comment on the tattoo, but her forehead is too big to wear her hair like that, which is completely beside the fact that that hairstyle looks like you forgot to wash the conditioner out of your hair.

Zac Efron: Get a haircut, hopefully something a bit like Link in Hairspray, you were hot in that movie.

JC Chasez: You almost had it, I really like this outfit, but the scarf? Really? It looks ridiculous, it doesn’t make sense..at all.

Miranda Cosgrove: I love you, I love iCarly, but that dress (and those shoes) do NOT work for you. Did you get this out of your mom’s closet?

Kirsten Stewart: I already bashed you today, I don’t care anymore

Robert Pattinson: You’re so attractive, but seriously, have you ever heard of an iron?

I’m sure I’ll get some hate comments for this huge bash, but seriously, you saw the pictures, and there were pages and pages more.  Seriously Hollywood, fire your stylists.

I thought this line was really cool until I clicked on the online store and saw the entire cast of The Hills, Miley Cyrus, Vanessa Hudgens, and Katie Perry. I’m just going to pretend I didn’t do that.  The fall collection is vampire inspired (isn’t everything these days) and has a little story that says, “Boys will come and go” the girls will say, “but vampires are forever.”  The lookbook shows girls in blood-red lipstick, some with fangs, or drinking cans of ‘blood,’ all in over-exposed light and semi-hipster fashion.  There’s some really cool shirts, and some ‘wild child’ leggings that I’m thinking about picking up…if Lauren Conrad doesn’t beat me to it…sigh. Check out the rest of the lookbook in the gallery.

EW. Seriously?  No, that isn’t Ben Afleck, it’s Doug Reinhardt, Lauren Conrad’s previous flame from The Hills.  I don’t even know what to say about this. Her outfit isn’t even bad, but this photo definitely deserves a fuck up. Really?

With the other Hill’s designers lines on hiatus, the fashion world is buzzing about Whitney’s line, Whitney Eve. Her people leaked the above images of the Fall 09 collection, and gotta admit that it looks a lot better then LC’s (which has been bumped to Kohl’s).

The line will be available in October and will consist apparel at first, but may expand to include shoes, jewelry, handbags, intimates and sleepwear. The prices will range from $20 to $60.

“We are very excited to announce our partnership with Lauren Conrad, a pop culture icon whose style resonates with our contemporary customer,” Don Brennan, the senior vice president of Kohl’s, told Us in a statement Monday. “We are confident the LC Lauren Conrad collection brings customers both the contemporary style and the world-class brands they want at a price that delivers incredible value.”

The numbers are in from magazine land and we have our list of best selling and worst selling celebrities. Angelina Jolie, Victoria Beckham, and Lauren Conrad on the cover sold the most issues in 2008. Issues with Nicole Kidman, Carrie Underwood, and Rachel Weisz on the cover sold the least. So if you want to make cash, skip out on Kidman and give us more Conrad.

Say it ain’t so, Lauren, say it ain’t so! A failed attempt at fashion? Your overpriced cotton dresses didn’t sell? Don’t worry, Heidi Montag still loves you…oh, oops. Before I beat the dead horse any more, lets lay the facts out on the table. The Lauren Conrad Collection is donezo and the delivery of her spring/summer collection is completely cancelled, that much we know. But there is a chance that Lauren Conrad is going to be like that syphilis you contracted last summer…you think she’s gone and then BAM. Conrad plans on making a comeback, re-thinking her line and using higher end fabrics. Sorry dear, but in this relationship, it’s not the fabrics that need a change, it’s you. Oh, and while you’re soul searching and thinking things through, you might want to consult a real designer to save the fashion world from future eye surgery. 

So, there you have it. She’s gone…for now. Pray to the gods of Rodeo Drive that it stays that way. 

Thanks NY Mag!

After signing a three-book deal with HarperCollins in September, Lauren Conrad is releasing her first young adult novel, L.A. Candy, June 16.

Conrad’s own synopsis is priceless: “[It tells] a behind-the scenes story of a young girl [named Jane Roberts] who moves to L.A. and unexpectedly becomes the star of a reality television show.”

The good news is that the book can’t possibly get optioned for a TV show.

I wonder if the next installment will find Jane selling generic jersey dresses at a drastic discount?

From People.

Lo Bosworth is wearing a Target skirt that I was actually going to pick up yesterday as I was looking for early signs of McQueen. Gotta admit, for $27.99, this skirt looks really cute, especially paired with a plain black tank and flats (of course, the outfit isn’t complete without the Chanel bag, but that you cannot pick up at Target).

Filled with shit you’d pick up at an American Apparel outlet or on sale at H&M for $5 bucks, Lauren Conrad’s latest collection once again fails to impress … anyone.

An exaggeration, I know, but if I were ever to come across one of Lauren Conrad’s hideous dresses in my Happy Meal, I wouldn’t be so happy. I would probably wipe my greasy, sweet-and-sour sauced fingers on it, crumple it up and toss it out with my soggy french fries. After realizing that Conrad’s site is up to 70% off items, there is no doubt that the girl is having a tough time selling her line. I hate to say I told you so, but there was absolutely no way  that her god-awful designs at such high prices would sell in today’s market. Now, there is no word if Conrad’s line is on its way out, but things aren’t looking good for the “designer” (cough). If you’re looking for a new car shammy, Lauren Conrad’s website might be the one to check out. 

Read it and weep. Or in my case, bake a cake. Check out the pathetic sale here.
