‘It’s a whole piss-take on everybody going, ‘Is the show scripted?’ ‘ the PR vet and ‘The City’ star insists of finale. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Garth Bardsley and Matt Harper Kelly Cutrone Photo: MTV News Was it real or fake? That’s the question many fans seem to be considering since credits rolled on “The Hills” for the last time on Tuesday night. The show’s creator, Adam DiVello revealed on Thursday (July 15) that the final moment between Brody and Kristin was staged . But a onetime castmember of the hit reality series, PR maven Kelly Cutrone — now on MTV’s “The City” — insists that everything else on the show is for real. “Well, not really, because the show’s not scripted,” Cutrone told MTV News when asked whether fans should now re-think the show given the finale episode. “It’s just not. I’ve been on the show, it’s not scripted. I think it’s a whole piss-take on everybody going, ‘Is the show scripted? Is it not scripted?’ ” Plus, Cutrone said, it was the best possible way to end a show that is, in fact, a reality show. “I mean the show’s got to end somehow, and if the show’s based in reality, how do you end something that’s real? I mean, what do you do? So the whole [thing] was a flip,” she concluded. “I thought it was funny that it ended with Brody!” “Hills” star Lo Bosworth also reacted to the finale (and its implications) on her blog on Thursday. “Don’t worry. It wasn’t fake,” she promised fans on her new site, the Lo Down. “I have never shot any ‘Hills’ scenes on a stage of any kind. Rest assured, we were simply poking fun in the way that our viewers have done since the show began to air. Our show’s undeniable production value sometimes made the validity of it all questionable, but in truth (and this really is the truth), the relationships with those on the show are real.” Meanwhile, show creator DiVello said he felt the ending paid homage to the city that served as its backdrop for six seasons. “We had come up with a bunch of ideas, and then I had this idea to focus it on the Hollywood sign and really just kind of incorporate Hollywood into the ending of it,” he told us. “Our show’s one that’s based in Hollywood and these kids live, work and play here and never, never really kind of acknowledged in the series that Hollywood is where shows are made.” What’s your take on the “Hills” finale?
