Lo Bosworth Calls ‘The Hills’ Her ‘Home Movies’

‘I just hope that people look back on it fondly,’ ‘Hills’ star says of the show’s big farewell. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Matt Elias Lo Bosworth Photo: Matt Elias/ MTV News Since Lo Bosworth made the move from “Laguna Beach” to “The Hills” alongside her pal Lauren Conrad, she’s seen roommates come and go, she’s seen guys break hearts and ladies get their hearts broken, and she even gave Justin Bobby his infamous nickname . When “The Hills” comes to an end Tuesday at 10 p.m. on MTV, Bosworth thinks fans will remember it as a groundbreaking show, a sentiment echoed by Kristin Cavallari . “I hope that people remember it as a show that was a guilty pleasure, of course, but really sort of paved the way for reality TV in general,” she told MTV News. In fact, Bosworth said shows will come along and try to replace “The Hills,” but she thinks none will come close. “There was never a show like ‘The Hills’ before ‘The Hills,’ and so in that regard, it is something that is unique,” she said. “And I feel people will struggle to re-create exactly what we have been a part of. I’m happy about that.” This season, Bosworth let fans into her life a bit more, filming at her job at Smashbox as well as bringing her boyfriend, Scott, on camera. She said being on the show has definitely meant that her life memories have been preserved for all time. “You know, I just hope that people look back on it fondly in the end,” she explained. “It’s like home movies!” What will you remember “The Hills” for? Tell us in the comments! Join MTV News all week as we look back at the best of “The Hills” and celebrate the series finale with the cast on Tuesday, July 13.

Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List Reality Check: ‘Moving the Merch’

I should’ve known the one episode of My Life on the D-List that Kathy Griffin devoted to her mother would be the season’s dud. In fact, how could it have succeeded? Kathy has reduced Maggie Griffin to a single Franzia joke since day one, allowing her the character breadth of a puppet theater headmistress. She’s stern, muumuu’d, and wine-woozy. That’s it. Adding cameos from Suze Orman and Lauren Conrad wasn’t going to change that, Kathleen. Time to persevere and engage the task at hand: scavenging last night’s episode for its most “real” and “fake” moments. Hopefully, we discover some probing emotional truths in this one-joke medley.

Stephanie Pratt to Star on The City Next Season?

In what would be the most nonsensical, contrived move yet by MTV, Stephanie Pratt is reportedly joining The City once The Hills goes off the air next week. According to reports, Spencer’s sister has been speaking with producers of The Hills spinoff and is intent on coming aboard Whitney Port’s reality series. The City also stars Elle employees Olivia Palermo and Erin Kaplan, and recently cast Whitney’s BFF Roxy Olin, who coincidentally works with Port now. The Hills is ending its six-season run a week from tonight, but Stephanie Pratt , who joined a few years back, isn’t ready for her 15 minutes to expire. “Now that The Hills is over, Stephanie has been talking about moving to New York for The City,” a source says. “There would be a lot of drama there.” USELESSNESS PERSONIFIED : Is Stephanie Pratt City-bound? The reason? Roxy. “Hex-best friend, Roxy Olin , is a regular on the show, and there’s bad blood because Roxy just dropped Stephanie for Whitney Port.” Stephanie vs. Roxy? Talk about a battle of useless wannabe fashionistas and reality stars. Remember when Steph also worked for Kelly Cutrone briefly? Lauren Conrad fired her. If MTV really decided to transplant Stephanie Pratt, not only would that be really annoying for viewers, but it would destroy any credibility The City has. Eh, bet you they do it.

Lauren Conrad to Appear on The Hills Reunion

Lauren Conrad is finally returning to The Hills … right after it ends. One week from tonight, the girl who made the MTV reality show a hit will be on hand for the Live Reunion Show after the now-sagging series mercifully goes off the air. The reunion will immediately follow the series finale of The Hills and the season finale of The City . Whitney Port reported the LC news, as well as her own attendance: “I am so happy to tell you all that I will be attending the reunion, as will Lauren!” Whitney wrote on her official site. “I am so excited to see everyone and catch up.” “I am so excited to see what’s next for them,” the former Hills star and current City leading lady continued. “It’s been so long since we have all been together.” REUNITED : For one night and one night only, next Tuesday . What remains unclear is whether Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt , exiled from the show in recent weeks without notice, will appear between now and July 13. Tonight, the penultimate episode of The Hills airs, followed by The City . The former will likely focus on Kristin and Audrina’s predictably boring romantic drama. Sigh. We can only hope Speidi returns to liven things up one last time.

LC’s former “Hills” co-star and current “The City” star Whitney Port tweeted her excitement about the news, writing, “So excited to reunite with all the hillsies!” Show creator Adam DiVello first broke the news on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Tuesday, revealing, “Lauren Conrad will be at the finale event along with Whitney Port and the whole entire cast. “It will be a big party,” he added. “We have some stories being paid off in the finale that I think the viewers will find pretty exciting. Everybody’s coming at peace with the stories we’ve been following. I think a few of them definitely found happiness and found what they were looking for.” Fans will certainly be happy to see LC take one last bow with her “Hills” pals. “It will be an exciting ending,” DiVello promised. “We definitely have a couple of surprises up our sleeve that the cast don’t even know about!” Earlier this year, Audrina Patridge and Kristin Cavallari hoped for a return from LC. “With her coming back, it’ll be like our older sister coming back and giving us advice,” Patridge said. “It would be fun. It would be nice to have her come back.” Cavallari added: “The last episode, she comes back, and we all kind of rekindle and, you know, spend our last moment together before it’s all over. I think it would be amazing if she came back. I think it would be great.” Are you excited to see LC return?

Kristin Cavallari: Dating Miguel Medina!

She’s dated a number of high-profile fellas, but Kristin Cavallari revealed this morning that she’s dating Miguel Medina, a cameraman from The Hills. “That’s not part of the show,” Cavallari said when asked about Medina. “Yeah, I’m currently dating [Miguel] and that all I’m going to say about that.” So basically, Miguel Medina’s job is to film The Hills , which features his girlfriend pretending to date other guys. Hey, whatever pays the mortgage. Hooking up came naturally, she explained . “Well, when you’re together all the time, you’re close, and it just sorta happens,” Kristin Cavallari told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show earlier today. The Hills cameraman Miguel Medina gets to stare at Kristin Cavallari all day and gets paid for it. The same is true for our interns, to a lesser extent. Could be worse . The reality star’s former loves include Stephen Colletti, Matt Leinart and Brody Jenner . She also pretended to date that tool Justin-Bobby for a bit. Along with Stephanie Pratt, Jenner and Hills creator Adam DiVello, Cavallari hyped the 100th episode, airing tonight, plus the series finale July 13. “Everybody’s kind of coming at peace with their stories we’ve been following,” DiVello said. “A few definitely found what they were looking for.” DiVello also said that while they won’t be partaking in the bogus drama, the after-show will feature former stars Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port.

Pill Went From ‘Zero To 60’ To Become ‘Hottest Breakthrough MCs Of 2010’ Candidate

Fans decide our ‘Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010′ — vote now! The winner will be revealed on July 25. By Shaheem Reid Phil Photo: Warner Bros. “Hottest Breakthrough MCs of 2010” Candidate: Pill Fourteen months ago, Pill had the trap going ham for his street pharmaceuticals. The young rapper struck gold when he dropped his rugged video for “Trap Goin’ Ham.” Rapping with a Corona in his hand, he showed women in his neighborhood smoking Newports and dudes rolling blunts. It was uncut, real and raw, and it gave you a flashback to that unflinching peak of ATL when some of the greats, such as Outkast and T.I., showed their lives in Georgia. Since then, Pill has become a favorite of hip-hop bloggers with his mixtapes 4180: The Prescription, 4075: The Refill and 1140: The Overdose. “It’s surreal, man. When you start off, you hope you can make it to this place,” Pill said of his growing popularity. ” 4180 was my first solo project ever. I went from zero to 60.” With that trilogy done, Pill is working on a brand-new tape, sans the medicinal theme, with DJ Holiday and the Empire. His debut LP should be dropping sometime in the fourth quarter or top of 2011. ” The Medicine, I’m working on it. I wanna make sure I don’t rush it. Once you get the deal, you feel like, ‘I gotta drop the album,’ ” Pill said. “I wanna make sure everything is new, everything is fresh. I got music for it. But I just wanna make sure all the feelings I go through, all the experiences, I wanna incorporate everything. Look forward to The Medicine. Not too many features. I don’t wanna crowd my first album with a bunch of features and make it a compilation CD. I want it to be more of me giving the people who I am and letting them see where I come from and hear my testimony.” Although the album is still being recorded, Pill said he has a keeper. It’s one of his most personal projects yet. ” ‘A Song for My Momma,’ ” Pill said when asked about a must-hear on his LP. “My momma passed away. I went in the studio, and I had been so stressed that week. That night, I was out clubbing, and I got a little tipsy. I was in New York. When I got back, I burst into tears. It caught up with me. I was like, ‘Damn, I’m actually doing what I told my momma I was gonna do.’ It was like, ‘Man, I gotta make her a song.’ I was supposed to make her a song, and I been running from it. I knew it was gonna take a lot of emotion and pain to do it. So when I got to the studio, I was boo-hooing still. My pages [that I write my rhymes on] was wet up, but I got through it.” Pill and 19 other up-and-coming MCs are in the running to become MTV News’ “Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010” — and the winner will be decided by you! Cast your vote for the “Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010” right here . The top five will be revealed beginning July 19, and the winner will be announced on the “Sucker Free Summit” July 25!

Top 10 ‘The Hills’ Moments, From Speidi’s Wedding To Lauren’s Farewell

We pick the best so far, as the reality series celebrates its 100th episode on Tuesday. By Jocelyn Vena Audrina Patridge, Brody Jenner and Kristin Cavallari Photo: MTV We’re more than halfway through the final season of “The Hills” and Tuesday’s (June 29) show will mark the 100th episode of the MTV reality series. Even with Lauren Conrad long-gone, Speidi, Stephanie, Audrina, Kristin and the rest of the crew have been up to some serious shenanigans this season. Leading up to the show’s pivotal 100th episode, MTV News is giving you a cheat sheet of the show’s top 10 moments — a list of some of this season’s top moments so far is on the way — all to help you get caught up before the “Hills” finale airs July 13. #10: Stephanie Pratt’s Interview With Kelly Cutrone After landing a coveted job interview with People’s Revolution PR maven Kelly Cutrone, Pratt seemed at a loss as to how to actually leave a good impression on your potential boss. For one, telling her your objective is to become a handbag designer? Bad idea. Did she get the job? Of course she did — then she lost it. #9: Justin Is Christened Justin Bobby Before Audrina brought her new guy over to meet Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth, the two pals went back and forth over what to call him. “His name is Justin, but he, like, wants to change it to Bobby,” Lauren explained to Lo. When the hairstylist/drummer arrived at the girls’ apartment, Lo asked if it was OK to call him Justin Bobby , bestowing him with the most memorable nickname in “Hills” history. #8: Heidi Crashes LC’s Work Party As an intern at Teen Vogue, Lauren was just hoping to stay in the good graces of her boss, Lisa Love. Her party-girl roommate, Heidi Montag, however, just wanted to have a good time. She showed up uninvited to the bash with a small entourage and nearly ended Conrad’s internship. #7 & #6: Holly Gets Tipsy, Heidi Marries Spencer While it was probably shocking for bride-to-be Montag to watch her sister Holly’s drunken antics at her rehearsal dinner , it was probably even more shocking for viewers who realized that Heidi and Spencer really did intend to get married. #5: Kristin Declares War There has been bickering on “The Hills,” but nothing seemed quite as vicious as the fight between Kristin Cavallari and Audrina , who fought over Justin Bobby at a rooftop party during season five. Plus, until then, we’d never heard any of the show’s stars utter anything as juicy as Kristin’s now infamous “It’s on, bitch!” #4: Heidi Moves Out After many ups and many more downs, the dynamic duo that was once Lauren and Heidi really began to fall apart, when one major down, Spencer Pratt, came between the roomies. Heidi moved out of her apartment with LC to pursue her relationship with Spencer. And although the once-close pair sometimes crossed paths, their friendship was never the same. #3: LC Chooses Love Over Paris Maybe Lisa Love was right when she predicted LC was “going to always be known as the girl who didn’t go to Paris.” But at the time, Conrad really thought she had something going on with boyfriend Jason Wahler. Her pal Whitney Port went instead and Lauren had a pretty terrible summer. #2 & #1: LC, Heidi Reconcile, LC Exits It was the moment that had Heidi, LC and “Hills” fans in tears. For a brief moment, the onetime besties reconciled and reminisced about what had made them friends in the first place: They actually liked each other. But the brief reconciliation was too little, too late. What is your favorite moment from “The Hills”? Let us know in the comments! “The Hills” airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET on MTV.

Heidi Montag & Spencer Pratt: America’s Least Wanted

The Hills fans have always loved to hate Speidi, a.k.a. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. But more people now gradually find themselves just plain hating them. Once close to or at least tolerant of the dastardly duo, family, friends and pretty much anyone associated with the plastic pair are now keeping their distance. “Everybody associated with Heidi and Spencer is re-evaluating their relationship with them as they’re likely to bring them down with them,” a source advises. Over the years, Heidi and Spencer have alienated many people in their lives, starting with Montag’s former BFF Lauren Conrad and most recently her family. Spencer even called the cops on her mom, Darlene Egelhoff , when she dared show up unannounced. But hey, anything that maintains the couple’s visibility. Shameless Speidi knows no boundaries. [Photo: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com] They’ve been entertaining in their manipulation of the gossip game for years, but for many, their behavior over the past few months has crossed the line. From Pratt’s tirades and obsessions to Montag’s plastic surgery and sexual harassment claims against Adam DiVello, no one wants anything to do with them. The two broke up last month, supposedly, in what many assume is yet another publicity stunt. But does anyone even care anymore, one way or the other? “They’ll do anything to stay in the news, which includes increasing their wacky behavior,” a source adds. “They’re doing anything they can to stay relevant.” “Even if that means Tweeting about other celebrities and scheming, they will go after absolutely anyone or anything that will make them more relevant.” Like faking a separation and planning a reconciliation? Don’t put it past them … not that you would, but still. The evidence of a breakup hoax is mounting. Heidi and Spencer’s split is …

Out of Miss World: Doug Reinhardt Dating Lane Lindell

Remember our report about Doug Reinhardt dating Miss USA Rima Fakih ? That was completely false. Yet not all that far off, really, in an odd way. Doug, a.k.a. Paris Hilton’s ex, a.k.a. Amanda Bynes’ ex, a.k.a. Lauren Conrad’s ex, a.k.a. that random former ballplayer guy from The Hills , is dating Miss World instead. A former Miss World, anyway. Reinhardt has been spending “every night” for the past few weeks with Lane Lindell, a beauty queen who held the esteemed crown in ’08. She’s getting a college education at the University of Georgia right now. Smart and pretty. Not bad for the latest notch on the bedpost of Doug Reinhardt … Will former Miss World Lane Lindell become Mrs. Doug Reinhardt?
