There's so much drama on the set of "The Hills" this month--but none of it has to do with the girls, the clubs or Kelly Cutrone. Neighbors of the house where LC, Lo and Audrina moved last season claim--gasp!--the girls don't actually live there!
Lauren picked out the $2.36 million house because she was tired of renting and wanted to live with friends. But locals say the girls are using the chatheau as a soundstage (a no-no in a residential area), leaving a lot of lights on and drawing the paparazzi onto a formerly quiet block.
MTV producers had promised all their equipment for shooting fit into one van which they could keep on the property. That appears to have been a whopping lie.
So if Audrina's moving out when season four premieres in August, will that be her actual apartment? Or just another set? We can hardly wait!
A British TV network is planning a reality show featuring 12 celebs working as flight attendants and gate agents on a carrier they're calling CelebAir.
The eight-part series, set to debut this fall, will follow the stars as they work actual flights carrying paying customers. They'll have to pass requirements set down by the UK's Civil Aviation Authority to work the cabin, though none of the celebs are slated to pilot the single CelebAir plane.
While no names have been confirmed just yet, Gridskipper is hoping that Paris and Nicole will be on board. We can only assume that's because of this.
Now that you've graduated, it's getting harder to avoid finding a job, no? Maybe you should continue the fun, er, education by traveling abroad. It's somewhat cliché, but two recent graduates, Christopher Rufo and Keith Ochwat, realized that there was much more adventure to be had elsewhere. Instead of the roadtrip across the country or the backpack adventure across Europe, they sought out a true adventure, a trip to Mongolia.
Instead of just posting pictures on Flickr, they filmed the whole thing--in HD no less. Upon returning home they spent two years editing their film and pitching their program to public television stations. Their 30-minute documentary, Roughing It: Mongolia, made its debut this summer on PBS.
Ed Westwick recently got caught rocking some serious argyle on the Hamptons set of "Gossip Girl," currently shooting its second season.
While the shorty-shorts Westwick has been sporting in his off hours put off more than one of us, his fans can take comfort that the Brit will be hanging around New York for much of the summer as filming continues.
Catch Ed's band The Filthy Youth at Santos Party House, the new New York club co-owned by musician Andrew W. K. tomorrow.
When we left off with this season of "The Hills," LC and Audrina were headed for trouble over a division in the Chatheau. Apparently they've patched that up, if this photo taken outside the Crown Bar in Los Angeles is any indication. (The place is a former gay dive turned celeb hot spot.) Ratings stunt, or BFFs forever?
Our pet theory is that LC will keep Audrina in her good graces so long as she wears those silly vests that flatter no one and make La Conrad look put together. What do you think?
We spotted Egetting cozy with his TV mom and Little J at the ballet, and now The CW Source reports the "Gossip Girl" cast is taking on more movie projects than their characters take expensive vacations.
Blake Lively has been filming in Connecticut with Robin Wright Penn, but on screen she's in Greece with her three best friends in "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" (out in August).
Matthew Settle, who plays her ex's dad, Rufus, is in Austin, Texas playing a bad ex-boyfriend to Joey Lauren Adams in the comedy "The Ex-Terminators."
And mysterious Chuck (Ed Westwick) is filming the dreaded sequel to "Donnie Darko," "S. Darko," in an undisclosed location. Hey, let's go look for him in our seersucker blimp! Martinis for everyone!
Ever since word leaked out last month that MTV would bring the 21st (!) season of The Real World to America's hippest suburb, Brooklyn blogs were abuzz about whether the channel would film its drunken, 20-something antics in the hipster haven of Williamsburg or beautiful brownstone-lined Park Slope. So just about everyone was surprised when MTV announced last week that the show will actually film in comparatively grimey Downtown Brooklyn.
A quick look at the apartment they've chosen--the penthouse at Belltel Lofts, above--reveals the decision is a backhanded dis to Brooklyn after all, as the producers have clearly opted for a location with magnificent views (of Manhattan) rather than staking out ground in one of Brooklyn's more interesting 'hoods.
So where will all the drinking and drama happen? Here's a list of the trendy spots in and around Downtown Brooklyn where you'll most likely be able to catch sight of MTV's camera crew. For those of you who don't wanna do tequila shots with fameballs, we've also included some spots that The Real World cast surely won't frequent, but really should.
"Sex and the City"-themed bus tours were rolling around New York long before the movie came out. So Radar Magazine sent two intrepid reporters to ride along with On Location Tours and see the streets the way Carrie and her friends would. And as you can imagine, the tour took them vibrator shopping, bar hopping and stoop-spotting.
