If you thought Heidi Pratt's Playboy spread was conservative (at least, by Playboy standards), then know this: the Hills gal hasn't ruled out the possibility of a no-holds-barred follow up. So why'd she hold back this time? Simple: It's all part of her master plan.

"Always leave them asking for more," she teased on Ryan Seacrest's radio show yesterday. "Next time, I'll have more to reveal."

Wait a sec ... next time?? Yep, you heard right. According to Usmagazine.com, Heidi might've inked a two -- or even three-part -- deal with Hugh Hefner. For now, though, Heidi's staying mum. When Seacrest asked whether we'd (ahem) be seeing more of her soon, all she would give him was a coy "Maybe."

Meanwhile, Heidi also addressed the possibility of a repeat spread in her Playboy interview with Spencer Pratt. "This is the most I've ever shown," she said in the mag's September issue, "but I made the decision not to show everything." At least, not yet.

Stephanie Pratt recently admitted that she's worried about getting on Kristin Cavallari's bad side. But apparently, Audrina Patridge has no such reservations. The feisty brunette dished about her new costar yesterday on Ryan Seacrest's radio show. "I don't like her," she confessed. And it was only downhill from there.

Later in the interview (excerpted on Usmagazine.com), 'Drina said that she and Kristin got into a fight on the very first day of filming! And while she refused to say whether or not Justin Bobby was the cause of the drama (Kristin's been equally coy about rumors that she and JB have been dating), Audrina was clear about one thing: she has no problem standing up to Kristin.

"When someone gets in my face, I have to defend myself," she told Seacrest. "[And] it's really pathetic and desperate what people will do when the cameras are around."

"Pathetic"? "Desperate"? Wow, better watch what you say, Audrina! Those sound like fighting words to us. And we all know Kristin Cavallari's never been one to shy away from an argument ...

In case ya didn't realize that he's a pretty big deal, Spencer Pratt (gangsta alias: "The Great White") has proudly just released A RAP SONG proclaiming his international fame. To our delight and surprise, "I'm a Celebrity" debuted on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show this morning -- and it's nothing short of highly memorable. Take a listen to the tune, then vote in our poll whether Spencer's got a real shot of making it in the hip-hop industry!

Remember the magical movie moment when Jay asked Whitney to be his g-g-g-girlfriend? Well, it didn't happen overnight. The way Whitney tells it, her City boy needed a swift kick in the you-know-where before he started talking relationship.

We already told you that Heidi and Spencer were floating around the idea of having kids. And while both newlyweds say the pitter-patter of little Pratty feet is a definite possibility, they can't seem to agree on when to get the procreation party started.

"We definitely need a kid ASAP," the eager papa-to-be told Ryan Seacrest earlier today. But according to Usmagazine.com, Heidi isn't ready to start shoppin' for maternity clothes just yet.

"I don't want kids for a long time," she told Us Weekly only a few weeks back. "You've got to keep your youth, your body for as long as you can. I feel like when I'm 30, we will."

Hey, we totally remember that issue! (Something about two crazy kids running off to Mexico and getting hitched?) Hmm, anyone still have their copy? It looks as though Spencer might've forgotten to read the fine print...

If you've been following all the Speidi wedding drama, then you already know that Heidi's mom, Darlene, (who was excluded from the quickie-nuptials) thinks her daughter just made the biggest mistake of her life. Now, Spencer and Heidi are fighting back, defending their decision to elope without Stalker Mom's permission and wagging their fingers at Darlene for raining on their just-married parade.

"I am sure she is just hurt and reacting crazy because she wasn't there," Spencer said on Ryan Seacrest's radio show (via Usmagazine.com) earlier today. Oh, and as for that whole I-give-them-six-months thingy? "I can't wait to prove her wrong and be married for the rest of our lives."

A few days after Paris Hilton "joked" about swapping boyfriend Benji Madden for royal hottie Prince William, rumors swirled that BFF star was snuggling up to her on-again, off-again beau Stavros Niarchos again. So we can't say we were TOTALLY shocked to learn that Paris and Benji officially called it quits on Wednesday. Slightly shocking, however, Paris' subsequent claim that the breakup was mutual (i.e. 100% not cheating-related) and that she and Benji are gonna be friendsies for life...and maybe more.

"[Benji] is an incredible person, and we will always be really close," Paris told Ryan Seacrest (as reported by E! Online). "We will see what happens in the future. I am still in love with him."

It's not always easy to figure out who your true friends are. And while this week's Paris BFF taught us a bit about frenemies (hence the fugliest "fashion" show EVER) we're still not sure which of the wannabe besties are in it for the right reasons (friendship, duh!) and which are just trying to hitch a free ride to Fametown.

And now that it's down to the final four (Bye, Lauren! We'll always have those drunken PDA seshes to remember you by!) Paris isn't taking any chances. Next week, she's bringing in a ringer (i.e. veteran celeb interviewer/human lie detector Ryan Seacrest) to help her figure out which girl's faker than a $5 Fendi.

Good luck, girlies -- looks like you're gonna need it. Especially you, Corrie -- after all, didn't you already "win" the Biggest Phony Award?
