"It’s stuff you wear that's dainty but also something you could beat people up with. Which to me is the most important thing, which means you have a weapon while also looking fashionable."
-Holly Montag, star of MTV's "The Hills," about her new jewelry line called "Coquette." "[It's the] French word for women who use their feminine wiles to get what she wants," she told Hollywood Crush. The "weapon" in question is a versatile chain that can be worn around the neck, the waist or — apparently — the knuckles.
With the MTV Movie Awards only days away and a new gig as one of our MTV Movie Awards weekend guest hosts, Lo Bosworth is hitting the gym to make sure she's fit in time for Sunday. She also has to look good for the "Hills" season finale, which airs at 8 p.m. ET Sunday, right before the awards show.
Lo has been spending a lot of quality time with her trainer, Garret, this week, doing some kickboxing. "You have to be in shape," she told MTV News. "You have to look good in your dress. This is hard work, you guys!"
Lo, who punched, kicked and squatted her way to get red-carpet-ready, will be looking good and fit alongside her fellow "Hills" buddies Frankie Delgado and Stephanie Pratt as they all make their way around L.A. to find out all the latest news leading up to the awards show.
If you want to see just how trim Lo ended up getting from all her kickboxing, then you'll just have to tune in to the big show Sunday at 9 p.m. ET to find out!
First Kris Allen, now Stephanie Pratt.
Last week while I was in Los Angeles covering the "Idol" finale (and getting props from the recent winner), a familiar face from "The Hills" left me a message on my Facebook wall praising my other recap endeavor for MTV, "MTV Detox: The Hills." Keeping the punctuation intact, Spencer's sister wrote: "great show! great job! i love to laugh at myself- i hate when people take the show so damn serious... give me a break people! Lauren conrads job is being Lauren Conrad. i am in no way 'ruining her internship at peoples revolution' so everyone needs to calm down! thanks for making the show funny! xoxoxoxo."
First of all, I love how the only thing she capitalizes is Lauren's name, as if LC were a deity. Amazing. Second of all, how awesome is that message?! It says a lot that she has a sense of humor about herself.

Whitney Port has certainly thrown out some great advice over the years to her longtime buddy and former Teen Vogue co-worker Lauren Conrad on "The Hills," but now "The City" star will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at Tuesday's Los Angeles Dodgers game when they go up against the Mets.
In what is sure to be a battle of the coasts, Whitney, who was born and raised in L.A., will also sign autographs for fans in the DodgersWIN (Women's Initiatives Network) tent. Little known fact about Ms. Port: her dad, Jeff, was drafted by the Dodgers in 1968. And since baseball seems to be in the Port jeans, ah, genes (that was a clothing-line pun!), her brother Ryan will catch her pitch at the game. Read more...
Who would have ever guessed that Spencer Pratt, star of "The Hills" and one half of the newly married gruesome twosome known as Speidi, loves to be famous?
Right? It's hard to believe that Spencer, who spends his days "managing" Heidi's music career (taking time out for various other endeavors like walking red carpets), admitted to the TheDailyBeast.com that he and his new wife love being in the spotlight.
"Heidi and I, do we love fame," Pratt told the Web site. "We're honored to be famous. We feel blessed to be famous." Read more...
If Stephanie Pratt was hoping that her new sister-in-law, Heidi Montag, would make time to hang out with all her favorite lady besties now that she's married, she must have been seriously disappointed at the Nylon Magazine Young Hollywood Issue Party in Los Angeles last night. But to make up for Speidi's absence, everyone from Rumer Willis to Nicky Hilton to Kelly Osbourne was there.
(Flip through pics from the Nylon party here.)
Also on hand were Stephanie's BFFs and "Hills" co-stars Lo Bosworth and Audrina Patridge (wearing the same shoes that Kelly Clarkson rocks in her "I Do Not Hook Up" music video) all decked out in their best party gear. The ladies were all smiles as they partied with hotties like "Twilight" vamp Kellan Lutz and his "90210" co-star Ryan Eggold.
Although Lo and Rumer rocked all black, ladies like Nicky Hilton, Stephanie and Audrina all threw in a splash of color with their looks. But we're a little confused by Kelly Osbourne, who showed up to the party with a blond pixie cut that matched boyfriend Luke Worrall's. Note to Kelly: Couples should only match their feelings for one another, not their hairstyles.

On Monday night's red carpet for the Film Society of Lincoln Center's annual gala, the focus was mostly on honoree, Oscar-winner and all-around swell guy Tom Hanks. That is, until our own Josh Horowitz had a chance to speak with Charlize Theron and the talk turned to stars of a very different variety.
As you may have heard, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt of "The Hills" got married last weekend, and Josh wanted to know how Charlize felt about the development. Read more...

Last night, most of the "Hills" cast attended an event at the Paley Center for Media, where their show was honored. A certain couple did not make the event, however, presumably because they're putting the finishing touches on their weekend wedding plans. The rest of the cast were all about discussing Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's forthcoming nuptials, although no one seems to know yet what they're wearing.
At this event's red carpet, all the "Hills" girls were looking as glam as always. Audrina wore a one-shoulder number with her hair up, revealing the colorful tattoo on the back of her neck. Whitney left her "City" life to be in L.A., wearing an almost nude T-back dress. Lauren showed off her deep tan with a sunny yellow number that was tied off with a leather belt. Lo's aqua-and-cobalt ensemble was a colorful addition to the carpet, but how did she feel about Stephanie's very similar aqua and black look? Hmm … (Check out photos of the girls after the jump, plus browse the entire Paley Center event photo gallery.) Read more...
On Thursday night in Hollywood, "The Hills" star Heidi Montag hosted a listening party for her upcoming album. Of course Heidi was willing to ham it up for the cameras, but we were surprised to see a familiar face behind one of those cameras.
As it turns out, Spencer Pratt has assumed the role of Heidi's personal videographer — and judging by the look on Spencer's face, he takes his job quite seriously. (And judging by the look on Heidi's face, she does too.) If it is her full-time job to show up to events and look pretty, well, then, mission accomplished. Read more...
Just as Lauren Conrad wraps up her time on "The Hills," she is also taking a break from her clothing line.
The reality-TV star blogged about the hiatus and explained her reasoning. "A few days ago, a statement was released to the showrooms that carry my clothing line," she wrote. "It asked them to let the stores know that I was planning to take a couple seasons off from my line so that I could make some changes that I felt were necessary."
Initial reports said the line was actually dropped from stores, but Conrad wrote that this "isn't the case at all. As a result, a lot of people were under the impression that my line was being discontinued or had been dropped. The truth is, I was the one who asked to take a couple seasons off."
She said she's taking a break to learn more and grow as a designer. "I have learned so much in the past year, and I want to apply that to the improvement of my clothing line," she said. "I also wanted to make some changes in production so I would be able to lower the price point."
Now that she's done with "The Hills," Conrad will have a lot more free time on her hands to work on her designs. "I am actually really excited about beginning this process," she continued. "I have spent the last couple weeks working on designs for spring, which is when I am planning to bring the (new and improved) line back. I also have some very exciting things going on that will be announced shortly."
