Whitney in the City & Brody's Bromance

On Monday December 29th, Whitney Port's new reality show debuts on MTV called "The City". It will feature the girl many consider "drama free" as she moves to the big city, Manhattan, leaving behind Lauren, Audrina and all the Hills glitz.

In another spinoff from The Hills, Lauren's former love interest and all-around good guy friend, Brody Jenner, will have his own show. The show called "Bromance" will debut on MTV Monday December 29th, in the absence of The Hills.

Brody's show will be yet another reality contest in the tradition of the Apprentice or Paris Hilton's Best Friend show as it will feature contestants going through challenges to try to become part of Brody's entourage. These challenges will be everything from skydiving to dealing with paparazzi. Each show will end with a "Hot Tub Elimination Ceremony" where a contestant is sent home in a wet swimsuit with their luggage. According to an MTV senior VP:

“’Bromance’ takes a successful TV format and turns it on its head,” MTV senior vp series development Liz Gateley said. “Brody is the perfect fit for this concept; he is the type of guy everyone wants to hang out with.”

So with Brody's friendship comes the glamor, glitz, girls and Hollywood extravaganzas. Let the good times begin...

Help Name Lauren Conrad's New Clothing Line!

Hollywood celebrity Lauren Conrad from MTV's The Hills wants your help in naming her new fall collection from her clothing line! When Lauren originally started naming her line she would use the names or nicknames of family and friends. Now she's run out of names and is seeking comments on her Myspace blog from fans. Lauren will use selected nicknames for her new pieces!

Here's the official word from Lauren @ her Myspace:

So, it's that time again.... I've just finished designing my Fall 2009 collection. Now, as I do with every collection, I need to name all the pieces. When I was begining I used names and nicknames of my friends and family, but I ran out of names after a few seasons. So, as I was starting to name the pieces in my fall collection, I had an idea. Since it is the support of all the fans that allow me to do this line in the first place, I should name pieces after them. I would love it if you would leave me a comment with your name. You may have a piece in my fall collection named after you. Thanks again for your continued kind words and support! Best wishes!

Thanks for such a great response! There are so many great names to choose from. Some of your names I have already used in my past collections so I won't be able to use it again.

Visit Lauren Conrad's Myspace blog and add your comment. You may have a new piece of clothing from Lauren's 2009 collection named in your honor!
