Man, what a bummer. All I wanted to watch tonight were a bunch of cheesed-out Jersey boys and girls puking and punching each other, but what I got at the top of Tila 2 were, um, the great debaters. Did I ask for your opinions on gay marriage? Go hump a pole or something — anything other than speaking your minds! You got hired for this gig to stir up drama and entertain us with your shirtless, Gold’s Gym chests and repulsive, predictable antics and willingness to put animal genitalia in your mouth and … Up, hold up, scratch everything I just said… Chad just head-butted Bo. Phew, back to basics.
I chatted up The Hills cast last night and heard a good mix of pros and cons regarding their involvement on the show. Sometimes, I guess you gotta learn the hard way:
“It isn’t possible to please everybody, no matter how hard you try.” –Lauren
“It’s OK to have your insecurities about things. Everyone will tell you to be confident about who you are, but it’s just normal to not feel so together all the time.” –Whitney
“When you’re on a TV show, people like to be your friend… just because you’re on a TV show. I’ve taken a serious look at my friendships, and have found some people I really trust. I’m capable of making good decisions about that stuff now.” –Lo
More lessons from Stephanie and Chiara, after the jump!

Was it just me, or did Dan look kinda hot in his “Where’s Waldo?” get-up last night? The glasses get me every time. What I love about these guys is their guts to totally go there on the After Show, asking the Hills cast all types of hard-to-swallow questions. Watch the below video, as they put Audrina on the spot about her occasional slumber parties with notorious FB, JB:
And looky here, one of the most controversial parts of the night, when Lo implies that maybe, just maybe, Audrina’s the real villain:
This one just breaks my heart. On the After After Show, Stephanie elaborated on the growing rift between she and Spence, and how it’s affecting the rest of her family. (She actually didn’t know if Speidi would be at the event, and was very nervous about possibly seeing them for the first time in three weeks).

It was so much fun chillin’ with Stephanie Pratt while she readied herself for the big finale event last night. It’s no wonder why both Heidi and Lauren want her as a friend. Hell, I kinda wanted to take her back to NYC with me. Some things you wouldn’t know about Stephanie from watching the show:
She has a pet guinea pig named Josie.
She has a bit of a spending problem (see below video).
She geeks out with weekly buy-in-bulk trips to Blockbuster.
Secret beauty trick: Accentuating her bright blue eyes with pink and purple eye makeup.
Her dream man is comedian Will Arnett… or anyone as funny as him.
She’s an accessories queen. Her fashion line will one day be all about the purses, as well as children’s clothing.
And lastly, Spencer wasn’t kidding when he said that Stephanie uses her second bedroom as a closet. Here, take a tour of the places in her apartment you haven’t seen yet on the show.
Watch Part 2 of the tour after the jump!

When Spencer Pratt says he’s 100% sure about something, what exactly does that mean? A few weeks ago, on the Tyra Banks Show, Pratt said he was 100% — even 1000% — sure that an LC/Jason sex tape existed. But consider this exchange between Spencer and Stephanie on last night’s Hills finale:
Stephanie: If I tell you where [Heidi] is, will you promise not to do anything crazy?
Spencer: 100%
Stephanie: You swear?
Spencer: I swear.
Ten seconds later…
Spencer: Are you coming with me to Vegas or am I going by myself?
People magazine has a list of “fun facts” about Hills playboy — and on/off LC loverboy — Brody Jenner.
Among the choice tidbits of info culled from interviews over the years, we learn that Brody isn’t afraid of a little identity theft and that he prefers a lady who dresses down. Most importantly, though, a word of warning to any exes who think they belong on Jenner’s My Space friend list: request “top friend” status only if you like your life served up with a side of hell. You LC fans sure can be ruthless.
K, so the MTV crew is starting to pack up the stage and head back to our hotel (for some much needed hand soap, cocktails, food, and sleep… exactly in that order). We have to take a shuttle back, seeing that this big ole mansion is atop a freakishly tall hill, with windy roads for days. All in all, it was a fantastic yet chaotic night. I had to change into flip flops halfway through, since navigating the red carpet to spiral staircase to stage to production office etc. etc. etc. was a very gnarly experience to be had in heels.
The girls looked gorgeous (especially while being embraced by Usher), Jessi and Dan were on point as usual, and my new friend Stephanie Pratt lost her Hills-fest virginity with a smile and oodles of grace.
Time to bid adieu on my part — yes, even bloggers have to go to bed eventually. Check back throughout the week for more coverage on Remote Control of my exclusive interviews/videos/pics with Stephanie, Lauren, Whitney, Audrina, and Lo…
Juiciest. Trailer. Ever.
Between LC landing a new, hot-as-Brody BF, Audrina and Lo biting off each other’s heads in the ultimate roommate showdown, and Kelly Cutrone taking biatch to a whole new level, the drama is gonna reach an all-time high during the next season of The Hills.
Earlier tonight, I asked show creator Adam DiVello if The Hills has an expiration date. He’s hoping interest stays high for a long time to come, and judging by this sneak peek, our eyes might just be peeled forever… or at least until Heidi and Lauren make up (which actually could mark the end of time).
