Lauren and Audrina @ LAX Airport
Lauren Conrad and Audrina Patridge catch a flight out of LAX airport on Wednesday. Apparently, this is their day off, according to TV Guide. Here’s some scoopage on The Hills:
Once and for all, is the show staged? Yes and no. “Who I am on the show is who I am in real life,” Audrina Patridge says. “What you see is what you get.” But it wasn’t just a coincidence that friends-turned-enemies Lauren and Heidi Montag went to the trendy restaurant Ketchup on the same night. “Lauren and Jason [Wahler] were going there, and Heidi and Spencer [Pratt] wanted to celebrate their anniversary,” says exec producer Adam DiVello. “Ketchup was one of the spots Spencer wanted to go to, so it just sort of worked out. It wasn’t planned on our behalf, but it is a little fake.”
How long do the girls have cameras with them each day? Sometimes hours, sometimes not at all. (Monday and Tuesday are their days off.) “We don’t have a set schedule,” Audrina says. “It depends on what’s going on.” At the beginning of each week, the girls speak with producers about their plans. “I hate to say we schedule their lives, but we definitely schedule out what we want to cover,” DiVello says. So if they are going on a date or to the Hollywood hot spot Les Deux, then the MTV crews tag along. But if they’re bumming around the house solo, the cameras will probably skip it.
Is Heidi and Spencer’s relationship a sham? Not according to DiVello. “They’re very much in love when I see them,” he says. “They’re a real couple and definitely engaged. It’s not staged for the sake of our show. If they’ve got something else going on, we’ve yet to see it.”
How do Lauren and Audrina afford that apartment? We have no idea. MTV won’t name the complex (it’s not really called Hillside Villas) because when people find out, they camp in front waiting to see the stars. But a swanky two-bedroom apartment in that area costs about $3,000 a month. Audrina works part-time as a receptionist at Epic Records and Lauren is an intern at Teen Vogue. You do the math.
Do Lauren and Audrina have a standing reservation at Les Deux? No, but they’re friends with the promoters and owners, so they know they’ll always be whisked past the velvet rope. Plus, the other clubgoers seem to have gotten used to seeing the cast there all the time, so the camera crews can go about their business pretty much unbothered. “It’s like a home away from home,” Audrina says. If your home always has a fully stocked bar, that is.

lauren is pretty but that other girl is so trying hard y’all
Well I am sure Lauren (and even Audrina) get a TON of money from their show. MTV must pay them A LOT!
Audrina is gross.
And yeah they probably get paid from the show. And besides, I’m sure their parents are loaded. No question their daddies help them out.
Love the hills

jared!
thanks
I so wish I could wear those type of clothes right now..BOO to wisconsin weather.. Is it just me or would you totally ditch Lauren as a friend,not that Heidi is a saint or anything but If I had a friend that into me and demanding all my time, I would be a lil freaked out..
hmm. Something the exec producer said does not add up, or maybe my memory’s wrong. But Heidi and Spencer didn’t go to Ketchup that night to celebrate their anniversary, did they? I thought they just went there to have a dinner out. The anniversary dinner was the night of the (so obviously staged) Emmy’s night conflict … but correct me if I’m wrong.
I’m slowly losing interest in the show. If Heidi and Lauren were trying to work things out, I could get why they’d keep Heidi on the show … but otherwise, why’s she there??
your right, they celebrated their ann.. at Spencers Fave Mexican Rest.. I just think they went to Ketchup that night,cuz Heidi pro does not know how to cook….
i thought lauren cut her hair, but they look great !
I love The Hills. And quite by accident I stumbled across Lauren’s real apartment building/complex when I was visiting family in SoCal. I wasn’t shocked it wasn’t really called Hillside Villas but I was shocked about where its actually located and how MTV manages to keep that a secret considering where it is, what its near and I KNOW the rent has to be paid by either MTV or Lauren’s dad because there’s no way a just barely 21 year old intern could afford that prime real estate.
oh please.. how can they afford that apartment? LC gets $25,000 an episode and im sure audrina comes pretty close to that salary. they make it seem like these kids are really working and earning a living. meanwhile, they don’t even need their jobs as “interns” or “receptionists” b/c they make so much bank from MTV. the show is desperately trying to avoid including these girls tabloid factor but its so obvious. are we honestly supposed to believe they’re trying to make ends meet? its rediculous!
Hillside Villas= Park LaBrea and it’s no secret to anyone living in the Los Angeles area (or for residents of P.LaBrea like myself) that Lauren lives here. And it’s easy to ’stumble’ across, because its a HUGE apartment complex right across the street from the VERY popular Grove Shopping Center. The only reason MTV calls it Hillside Villas was to protect Lauren’s private life a little bit. I don’t even think an apartment complex by the name of Hillside Villas exsists anywhere in LA…
Notasecret - that’s what I didn’t understand. I’m standing at the E! building on wilshire and I walk over the the Tar Pits and look around and say to myself “that’s Lauren’s apartment building” if you can even call your monolithic complex an apartment building. My friend from E! goes “Oh yeah Hillside Villas hee hee! Yeah totally stupid.” My thought was there must be thousand of residents there and they must be using a different name to protect you guys not Lauren. But it is the worst kept secret around.
Well LC’s dad is an architect, and judging by the family’s house that was built in season 1 of Laguna, he seems to be quite wealthy.
However - LC WAS driving a toyota 4 runner back in the Laguna days…did she not buy a convertible Beemer after moving to LA?…and then a convertible Benz after the 1st season of The Hills…
I’m guessing LC is getting her $$$ from doing things like club and product promotions. There’s no way that she’s living the way she does solely on her dad’s bank account and MTV’s salary.
okay DUH lauren gets paid for the show!!! HELLO she doesnt get paid for her internship! obvious, people.
I love L.C.´s full round pooper !!!!!!
audrina = dog
I really miss the days when you could actually see music videos in MTV. Now is all about reality series and stupid shows, with stupid people getting famous without having acting or singing skills.
Monkey Shine- Totally agree w/you that it’s the worst kept secret. Whether it be for Lauren/other residents’ the jury is still out,because its already private enough with the gates, and mandatory check in points for all guests. Its funny, a while back I read a review of the 3rd season of The Hills and the writer called MTV out by saying “So, LC ditches Teen Vogue for Teen Wolf Malibu, and let’s get another thing straight-she lives at Park LaBrea not the imaginary Hillside Villas.”
Lauren got 2 million dollars from MTV for this season… it has been reported. MTV does not pay per episode but per season. She is the highest paid reality tv star these days. Heidi gets about 1 million for this season and Audrina and Whitney gets between 500,000 to 750,000 dollars for season 3. These girls are getting paid. MTV pays for LC apartment with Audrina and they all have a stipend for clothing to wear on the show. LC also receives money from her other projects such spokeperson for some companies, hosting events, and her clothing line.
everyone knows she lives at park labrea….it’s pretty easy to catch the crew in action and if you go to the grove enough you will catch someone from the hills shopping with daddy’s and mtv’s money.
good god in heaven: that lauren thing is fugly.
just dont git it…
the swill kids will swallow these days as trendy/hot bewilders me.
sad.
she looks thirty.
LC looks gorgeous. People who calls her ugly are just haters. People who calls her fat or chubby are just delusional.
Those were good questions!
Um Lauren, white bra, um no. She still looks pretty.
OMG!
I can’t tell how much I hate Audrina!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAARGH!
Lauren looks cute, Audrina is tyring to hard.
Why is Audrina pretending she is so chic, she looks gross. And Lauren, buy a black bra. I like her (Lauren) though, she is so down to earth. Audrina should be thankful she is her roommate or else nobody will give a S@#T about her and her gross boyfriend.
Tony Pony, get a life.
love them both, but I think Audrina is the prettiest one ;).
Tony pony you wish you had a girlfriend half as pretty as lauren wait a minute do you even like girls? Maybe spencer is more your type.
I haven’t watched MTV since it forgot that the M stood for music, not money.
just toclear upthe ketchup dinner…Hiedi and Spencer went there to celebrate the promotion she stole from Elodie… ew i really dont enjoy them
I am loving Audrinas gray boots!!
Audrina needs an upper lip, I think she should contact Heidi’s surgeon. Lauren is gorgeous, love that girl.
wait ~ they DONT live in Park La Brea ~ they live in the VILLAS AT PARK LA BREA, I think! Park La Brea doesn’t look at all like their apartment.
wait - they dont live in PARK LA BREA - they live in VILLAS AT PARK LA BREA.
check out the web site.
Whatever, I think both girls are hot.
Does anyone what brand Audrina’s boots are? They are so cute!
I think Lauren is pretty. Of course they get pay big money, otherwise they wouldn’t dress as good as they do. Those clothes don’t look cheap…
No, her boots are ugly.
Last comment, because I really do need to stop caring, haha. I live at the Villas-so yes, Lauren DOES live here at Park LaBrea. It’s all the same aree, only real difference is cost of rent and “look”of the apartments.
This post was originally about these girls at LAX. I think they’re both pretty and entertaining on the show. I probably shouldn’t have even started talking about where they live because now people are on their apartments’ website? Kind of weird…
I know for a FACT they live at VILLAS AT PARK LA BREA. Get your facts straight, notasecret. Everyone knows you don’t know what you’re talking about. AND..who cares if people are on the apartments’ web site?? YOURE THE ONE LYING ABOUT WHERE THEY LIVE, B/C YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY OBSESSED!
does anyone know where you can audrina’s tee shirt?
does anyone know where you can buy audrina’s tee shirt?
not true #29. I like Audrina. She’s fun, she’s honest and she’s a great friend to Lauren. Not to mentiom the fact that she’s beautiful and has THE amazing body ever. I would kill to have her genes!!
where can you buy audrina’s tee shirt?
i want to buy audrina’s tee, but where can you find it?
Why is everyone hating on my girl? Audrina is the sweetest thing ever. Pretty too.
I love Lauren but Heidi is just whoranus and Whitney they barely show and that Lo is such a brat, boy did that girl Lo get fat and ugly or what?!?! lol S’anyways I love Audrina so stop hating y’all.
fuzbun, it looks a concert tee. You might be able to find it at a vintage clothing store or try a google search for it. My guess is that you wont find that exact shirt (since it was from a tour) but never fear the Stones have lots of great other vintage tees to choose from. Good luck!
quit whining about how mtv is not about music anymore!! it is more of a major broadcasting network now and if want to listen to music that badly go watch FUSE, IMF, MTVplaylist, MTVhits, etc. get over it and get more channels losers!
agree, mtv needs - MUSIC. NOT THESE STUPID TELEVISION SHOWS!
Lauren has amazing legs and a great body. Why does she always wear huge clothes?
Vanessa Hudgens has the same sunglasses Lauren is wearing
Thanks for posting Jared.
This is probably the last season of The Hills. What will we obsess about then?
The Hills is averaging about 4 millions for MTV; I doubt this is going to be its last season. The hills has more viewers than gossip girls and one tree hills (and I am not counting the people who download from their computer).
Love both girls, Dont understand why so many bash Audrina. She’s sweet and beautiful. Justin may not be our taste in BF’S but then again WE don’t have to date him ; )

#55- I noticed that too! Love me some Nessa ;)Btw Jared, can’t wait for some more Zanessa pix to surface!
#44- Angry much? Those places virtually sound the same (and probably are)…you sound ignorant, it is weird to be checking out where those poor girls live, who cares?!
I must say, those are super cute shorts Lauren is rocking-I want her legs, ahhhhh!
LAUREN’S GOT SOME MASSIVE LEGS.
Lauren has some hot legs!!!
Babe, what are you talking about?
who is interviewing who???
What’s up with the Airport pictures?
They look goode.
They live at the Palazzo West at Park La Brea, So get your **** straight *******. They’re rent is about 4 grand per month. MTV does pay for it. MTV even pays for all the items in the house.
She does her voiceovers at orcale Post in Santa Monica
I also heard that Lauren and Audrina don’t have cable, internet or phone [besides their cell phones] in their apartment.
Lauren said it herself that she doesn’t have cable.
I’m sorry but when I see Audrina I think of the word Fake, something ain’t right with that girl, I just can’t pin point it.
Loving their look, they are so different.
#67- Sounds like Park LaBrea has a ton of different complexes within it. No need to curse at someone about it, is it really that serious?
Geez, people are extremely abrassive on these boards and its only getting worse.People fight less on Perez Hiltons’ site and I thought those were bad comment sections! All anyone does on these are curse one another out. Real mature guys…
Whatever the amount, if Lauren and Audrina aren’t footing the bill, I’d say they are lucky to have found someone else who will!
why do they only show one side of their living room on the show? does anyone else find that weird?
Love LC, thanks for posting, Jared.
If you all really think Lauren and anyone on the cast gets paid $25,000 a show, you’re retarded. They make a mere $100 per episode. And yes, Lauren used to live at The Vills at Park La Brea. Rent their is about $3000+ for a 2 bedroom apartment. Not impossible to pay split two ways. Some of the comments on here make me laugh…
duh, they forsure get paid from mtv. they producers are lying of they say they are not.
All yall dat say audrina looks gross you all aint none but a bunch of hatas and besides lauren should be glad dat she has someone dat is a better friend than heidi. Audrina and lauren aint no fakers da got jobs and parents to support dem so dont be jealous. And if you see dem so much dont bash dem on line tellem straight up.
