There's a difference between watching somebody get emotional on The Hills and finding out exactly what they're like off-screen. Which is why Audrina Patridge says there's a lot more to her than what you see on the show. So what's 'Drina really like? Earlier this week, she posted 15 fun facts about herself on her website. Check em' out below and tell us which one surprised you the most!

1. I used to have my nose pierced.
2. I have a strange and irrational fear of sloths. They totally creep me out!
3. I have idolized Grace Kelly since the sixth grade.
4. I love to mix Tapatio hot sauce and ranch dressing together and dip my pizza in it. Delicious!
5. I am somehow related to Cheryl Ladd on my dad's side of the family.
6. I used to have a Yamaha YZ125 motorcycle.
7. My natural hair color is dirty blonde.
8. My brother is teaching me how to surf. I am slowly getting better at it.
9. I took karate lessons, but I only made it to yellow.
10. I was a straight-A student growing up.
11. If I wasn't acting, I would have liked to study psychology at Pepperdine.
12. I played a munchkin in a production of The Wizard of Oz at my school. It's a really funny video!
13. I was on the swim team in high school. I swam the 400-yard freestyle.
14. I'm double-jointed in my thumbs and my shoulders.
15. I like to eat breakfast for dinner.

Thanks for the info, Audrina! And feel free to post that Wizard of Oz video whenever you get a chance. We're thinking it'll go great next to Whitney Port's Little League pix and Lauren Conrad's very first straw hat.

Happy Haiku Friday! In honor of Twitter, fall and all things concise, Remote Control is gettin' all artsy fartsy/experimental today with a pop culturized foray into Japanese poetry. Accordingly, all our posts will be comprised in 5-7-5 meter or non-traditionalist free-form. Stick around, you might learn something!

• Queen Bee Kristin Cavallari has a message for all you haters out there: "Who I am on Laguna Beach and The Hills is the complete opposite of who I am in real life." After spreading the word, K-Cav skipped off into the sunset, whistling "Kumbaya," smiled pleasantly and then dreamed up more ways to steal Audrina Patridge's ex-boyfriend. (Perez Hilton)

• Meanwhile, 'member when K-Cav and Heather Graham wore the exact same Herve Leger slasher dress? Well, now Heidi Pratt's getting in on the action. THREE WAY! (Metro UK)

• The good news is that Lauren Conrad's new book L.A. Candy is now in stores! The bad news is, you TOTALLY MISSED seeing LC in Barnes & Noble yesterday. Oh, and did we mention she stayed for hours until she'd met every single fan? Loves her! (Examiner)

• Earlier this week, Lo Bosworth (or someone pretending to be her?) tweeted about her date ... during it. But don't worry, Countess de Lesseps. She waited 'til he "went to pee" before whipping out her celly. (Lo Bosworth's Twitter, via E! Online)

Holly Montag has officially been bounced from I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!, much to the disappointment of fake boyfriend/iconic hairperson, Sanjaya Malakar. (MTV News)

• 'Course, when one door closes, another opens! Speidi have announced that they'll be back for the I'm A Celebrity finale. And they've got enough dry shampoo for everyone! (MTV News)

We can probably all agree that Kevin had the best spring break of all (free room/board + ten slammin' hotties = best week ever). So, whose breakation was the worst evs? Well, that depends on whether you think awkward breakups (and run-ins with your drunken ex) trumps a week of watching Nat Geo at Mom and Dad's. Think you know which College Lifer had the lousiest time? Take the poll and make it official!

We told ya Whitney Port came from a family of all-stars, and on Tuesday night she proved she's ready for the big leagues! The City cutie (looking super sporty in Dodger whites!) threw out the first pitch at Dodger Stadium in Tuesday's game against the Mets while her fam cheered her on from the stands. (Atta girl, Whit!) And from there, she was off to the blogs to deliver the official post-game report:

"What an exciting day!!!" Whitney wrote on her website. "It was so cool because I've been a Dodgers fan my whole life so it was really special to be there with my entire family ... I'm pretty proud of myself. For someone who hasn't played in quite a few years I think I did pretty well."

So do we! Hey, Whit, if you ever switch your allegiance over to the New York teams, let us know! The way Mariano Rivera's been pitching lately (or, as we call it, "blowing saves"), the Yanks could use another backup reliever in their bullpen!

BONUS: Missed the game? Watch Whitney wind up and make her MLB pitching debut!

Although Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are dancing in the streets over Kristin Cavallari's foray into Hills country, not everyone's ready to break out the welcome wagon. And one outspoken critic of Lauren Conrad's pseudo-replacement is an East Coaster who's had plenty of experience rolling with the Hills crew.

Nope, it's not Whitney Port (who has yet to weigh in on the subject), but her always-opinionated bestie, Erin Lucas. And as City fans know, Erin has no problem saying exactly what's on her mind. Even if that means calling the newest Hills arrival a "disaster."

There were lots of surprises throughout this season of Taking the Stage. Like, who woulda predicted that Mia would become The Other Woman? And what was with Jasmine not getting into Juillard (or Fordham, for that matter)? We assumed she had it in the bag! So now that the show's over (boo), we're left wondering: What will happen to the students of SCPA? Like any meaningful, long-term relationship, we need some closure! Or a second season to start ASAP.

Guess the best we can do for now is cast our hopes into the blogosphere and wait patiently for an update. (As soon as we hear something, we swear you'll be the first to know!) Take the polls below and tell us: How would you like to see things turn out for Tyler, Jasmine and Mia?

On tonight's Fantasy Factory, Rob Dyrdek set out to create the best dance video in the hizz-istory of the worldwide Web. And it's quite possible he did just that. (Surriously, are there any dreams this guy can't make happen?)

Check out the video one more time, then take our poll: Whose "Can't Hold Back" cameo stole the show?

Tonight's Making the Band had all the things we've come to expect this season -- tears, fighting, cursing, screaming and attempted assault. But after getting off to a rocky start, the show turned into something both long overdue and completely unexpected: a Day26 breakthrough.

After railing against his bandmates, Que finally opened up to them and discovered that they still have his back, no matter what went down. And while he won't be on the guys' cruise next week (Diddy slapped him with a mandatory time out) we're convinced that Que and the boys are finally back on track. After all this, looks like all Que really needed was some reassurance!

And maybe a giant bear hug from Brian, Robert and Will.

+ Think Day26 can finally put the drama behind them? Or is this just the calm before the storm? Let us know whether everyone will still be smiling after the guys' Que-free vacay is over.

Even though we got a double dose of Fantasy Factory tonight, our favorite gangsta rapper receptionist Chanel was only on air for like five seconds! So we decided to make it up to all the Chanel fans by showing some of her greatest hits. (For instance, that time you got to see her thong, that time she fell off a skateboard and you got to see her thong and that other time she was doing secretarial work and her pants came undone and you got to see her thong. OK, I made that last part up.) Ahhh, Chanel, come on my show (and bring Beefy!)? PLEASE.

Hope you enjoyed Sunday's 'Dude Night' Detox -- come back tomorrow for our recap of The City season finale!
