Come December 29, LA — and LC — will be SO last season. The action’s switching coasts as Whitney Port takes Manhattan in MTV’s new Hills spin-off, The City. Previous sneak peeks of the show have revealed that Whit’s exciting life in NYC includes a dream job (doing PR for design icon Diane von Furstenberg), as well as a dream man (remember Aussie rocker Jay?). But will there be less drama since Whitney always appears to be so sensible? Dream on …
As the new trailer suggests, Whit’s love affair is moving at lightening speed levels and one new gal pal has “frenemy” written all over her forehead. Watch as our fave Valley Girl begins to learn that City guys play by different rules … and real City girls put Blair Waldorf to shame.
Over the past two seasons of Shot at Love, we’ve seen dozens of suitors (male and female) vye for Tila Tequila’s affection by getting tattooed, walking on broken glass (well, sort of) and chugging down hot dog smoothies. We’ve seen Tila hop in the hottub with Jersey Jay’s ‘rents, perform unspeakable acts on a pickle and manhandle Kristy’s younger bro. And we’ve even seen Tila get shot DOWN (on her own show!) by the one-time object of her affection.
And then, just when we thought we were 100% shock-proof, we sat down and watched the trailer for this season’s Double Shot at Love (premiering Tuesday December 9th at 10 PM ET/PT). And we have three words for you: HELL FRICKIN’ YEAH. A set of identical bisexual (and did we mention gorgeous?) twins determined to find their dream guys/girls without scratching each other’s eyes out? Yes, please!
So say hello to Rikki and Vikki Ikki (You only WISH we were kidding) and get psyched for the craziest season yet. Looks like the third time IS a charm …
After watching Lauren and Whitney ogle Jay (aka. that hot Aussie rocker dude/Justin Bobby lookalike on this week’s Hills), it occurred to us that those far-fetched LC/JB hookup rumors seemed to be dying down. But apparently, we spoke too soon. Recently, Lauren took the opportunity to set the record straight … again. From USA Today (via Usmagazine.com):
Among rumors that have dogged Conrad: a supposed dalliance with [Audrina] Patridge’s boyfriend in Las Vegas. “I wasn’t even there,” Conrad says. “I wasn’t even in the state.”
But the star concedes she has struggled with how to handle relationships while being in the limelight. “With friendships I had kind of a hard time,” she says. “I think the media and fame tie into that. It changes people.”

Occasionally, when my heart’s pounding, my pulse is racing and my blood pressure’s higher than Amy Winehouse at Glastonbury, I find that it helps me to jot down some of my thoughts in poetry-form. And so, with only a few gut-wrenching hours standing in between me and the Shot at Love 2 season finale, I humbly present this rhyming tribute to Tila Tequila.
Tonight’s the big Shot at Love finale show
And Tila’s kept us all guessing. Will it be Bo
Who wins Tila’s love and undying affection?
Or will the bisexual “singer” go in another direction?
Perhaps Kristy will be the big winner!
(Her bro sure bonded with Tila at the family dinner)
And speaking of fams, how about Jersey Jay?
Could you believe Tila just sent him away
After getting his moms to act like cheap floozies
And then getting it on in the family jacuzzi?
Meanwhile, I still can’t believe Tila sent Brittany packing
(Ostensibly because the “chemistry” was lacking)
Or Lisa, who proved winning challenges does not guarantee
An oversized Shot at Love McMansion key
So tune in tonight, and find out who Tila chooses
You’ll never believe who wins…and who loses
Tonight’s the highly-anticipated Shot at Love 2 finale! Which means now’s your last chance to let us know which wannabe paramour you think has the better “shot” with Tila. Now, if weren’t for Bo’s bionic chin, I’d say Kristy pretty much has it in the bag, seeing as she has that whole estrogen thing going for her and Tila’s undoubtedly sick of those ‘Is she, or isn’t she a bisexual?’ rumors. But then again, you can never underestimate the sympathy vote — and Jay may have had a point when he hinted that Bo’s jaw-dropping metal plate may, in fact, have given him an edge over the competition.
But what do you guys think? Which guy/girl will it be? Or do you think Tila will rip a page out of The Bachelor’s playbook and decide to keep that last inordinately large house key for herself? Re-read my rundown of the two finalists and let me know whether you’re on Team Bo or Team Kristy!
Looking forward to tomorrow night’s Shot at Love reunion? So am I! Which is why, in preparation for the big event, I’ve come up with my top 3 predictions for the Most Awkward Moments. Here’s who I think will steal the show and why.
Scene-Stealer: Chad
Last seen: Punching Bo in the face in Episode 4 (and subsequently leaving in Episode 5)
Tough Assignment: Attempting to awkwardly rationalize punching Bo in the face.
Prediction: Chad will blame the entire thing on a made-up addiction (i.e. an overdose of over-the-counter energy supplements) and announce that he’s checked himself into a Red Bull-free rehab center. (Note: This is also known as the “Isaiah Washington defense.”)
