It takes a big person to admit he has big problems, and that’s what Joey started to do on tonight’s episode of Real World: Hollywood. It’s been a while since those intense moments were shot, but Joey still remembers them clearly… except now, with a little distance, he’s gained perspective and a better understanding of how things started to unravel so quickly…
Before coming to the Real World, I battled and WON my war with addiction…. or so I thought. I cleaned up my act and was ready for Hollywood, with a stronger mind, body, and heart. I was set to take Hollywood by storm.
I did not take into consideration, however, that the Real World environment is somewhat of a “lockdown” situation. And the other six strangers on lockdown with me just so happened to LOVE partying. That whole party scene was something I had worked very hard get away from in my previous life in Chicago.

As if Heidi and LC didn’t have enough to be competitive about, here comes word that Ms. Montag’s fashion line, Heidiwood, is a surprise hit. The line was stocked at Kitson — L.A.’s boutique-to-the-tragically-hip on famed Robertson Boulevard… and has completely sold out. Kitson claims that there won’t be any new shipments until summer or fall lines are debuted. Better get your butt over to Anchor Blue if you want to be part of the trend.
And, as an equal opportunity promoter, LC’s clothing line is likewise just a click away on her Web site. Warning: Do not mix and match.
On the heels of his radio rant, Spencer Pratt is milking those sex tape rumors for all they’re worth. And to some, they’re worth a lot.
Although alleged “co-star” Jason Wahler — supposedly filmed alongside Lauren Conrad — of the phantom tape insists that the video does not exist, Pratt rebuts, telling US Weekly:
“Jason’s statement couldn’t be more transparent. Notice how he uses present tense, ‘I DO not have a sex tape… one DOES not exist.’”
“We all know that it existed, that he tried to sell it and is now covering up to make himself look better.”
The magazine’s website also points out that Spencer told Tyra Banks he is 1000% sure that the tape was real.
1000%! How you gonna argue with that, Wahler? Infinity plus one?
The Hills is a priceless vault of strange and sexy facial gestures. Sometimes so strange and so sexy that LC, Audrina, et al have struck a close resemblance to a few choice adult film stars. With that in mind, Details Online developed a fun little game of who’s who. Gets me every time (and I’ve played all day).
Tyra: What would you name your children — like, Speidi or Hencer?
Heidi: He wants to name one Dunk.
Tyra: Dunk?
Spencer: Well, cuz this was when I was saying I want to go to Africa, and when I adopt an African, he’s going to be very tall, and he’s gonna be the best dunker.
Not so much shmecking happened on last night’s Shot at Love 2. In total, Tila made out with only 2.5 people at the house (Sirbrina, Kristy, and almost the cop). Not bad for someone who just had her heart broken, but I’m hoping she’ll get it up to Rock of Love standards by next week. And judging from this trailer, it looks like that’s a pretty good possibility…
1. You have a near-death experience, but you’re preoccupied with the headlines for it.
2. You have oddball conversations with close friends about your love for semi-colons.
3. You break dance “inverted pyramid” style.
4. You utilize clever headlines in everyday conversations.
5. Your most frightening nightmares are about missing deadlines.
6. Everything happening around you becomes a possible Pulitzer award-winning photo.
7. Your teachers label you “the newspaper kid.”
8. You think you’ve earned bragging rights around school for finding the best quotes.
9. When your friends quote movies, you’re the only one who does so accurately.
10. The only questions you ask are open-ended.
11. You hate Fox News.
Let me start by saying I’m soooo sorry, Lauryn. Last week I mixed up your name with Samantha’s — big oops, you guys are night and day!
Samantha: it’s all so 1996 — the glitter, the elevator shoes, the awful attempt to mimic a “CUTE” voice. And poor Scotty… he’s just misunderstood. Food fights are fun, lighten up lady. Lauryn on the other hand, is down to earth, compassionate (consoling George), and fun. Not to mention one of the only chicks in the house who doesn’t seem like a man hater.

Stars from Nick Cannon to Hilary Duff to the ever outspoken Rosie O’Donnell have been weighing in on the Miley Cyrus near-nude photo scandal. In case you’re living in a pop culture-proof bubble, Ms. Cyrus has come under fire for taking “artsy” pics that many feel are way inappropriate for a 15-year old girl. Not everyone is judging her harshly, though. In fact, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, and Lauren Conrad all voiced some sympathy and support for the teenage superstar.

Aside from a few death stares, the ladies of The Hills all made nicey for once, staying civil on the set of a Rolling Stone photo shoot. Heidi, Audrina, Lauren, and Whitney — what? no Lo? — giggled and posed in pajama-party chic for the cameras. And although Heidi and LC did not engage in another battle of who’s the suckier person, at a recent event, US Weekly claims that when asked about Lauren, Heidi responded, “I pray for her.”
RollingStone.com has some good little snippets already up, including the highlights from a sit-down with just Spencer and Heidi. The couple chalks up their appeal to their naughtiness — “Good girls are so vanilla,” says Heidi. Pratt takes it further, suggesting that people love them because they want to be them.
“It’s jealousy, man,” Spencer says. “It’s human. I’m jealous of Jay-Z, Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch. I feel for these people who wish they could be on reality television and not in their cubicles. You got to thank your haters.”
Hey, at least he’s gracious.
