New Series Tells the Story of Lauren and Her Three New Friends - Heidi, Audrina and Whitney - As They Pursue Their Dreams in the One City Where Anything Can Happen ...
MTV announced that it will premiere THE HILLS, the long awaited spin-off of LAGUNA BEACH, starring Lauren Conrad, on Wednesday, May 31st at 10:00PM (ET/PT). THE HILLS picks up where LAGUNA BEACH left off with Lauren moving to Los Angeles to attend fashion school with the hopes of a career in the fashion industry. Having already found a great apartment, a new friend to share it with and a killer internship at Teen Vogue, Lauren will have to balance it all and make it happen in the one city they say dreams come true.
"THE HILLS is to LAGUNA BEACH what MELROSE PLACE was to BEVERLY HILLS 90210," says Tony DiSanto, Executive Producer, THE HILLS. "Audiences loved Lauren in Laguna, and we are thrilled to be able to continue showing her story as she embarks on the next phase of her adult life juggling work, school and relationships in Los Angeles."
THE HILLS also tells the story of Lauren′s three new friends -- Heidi, Audrina and Whitney as all three girls chase different dreams in the same city. Lauren′s roommate, Heidi has set her sights on a job with LA′s premiere party promoter, Brent Bolthouse. Heidi′s first priority is LA′s social scene, and she sets her schedule around her nightlife. Audrina lives in the same complex as Lauren and Heidi. Besides working as a receptionist at one of LA′s top photography studios, Audrina is also an aspiring model/actress and a bona fide Hollywood "serial-dater." Finally, there is Whitney, a student at USC and a fellow intern of Lauren′s at Teen Vogue. Whitney and Lauren have become fast friends; however, Whitney′s internship at Teen Vogue takes top priority in her life.
In addition to introducing new friends in LA, THE HILLS features the girls′ love interests, which causes added drama, especially when Lauren′s old flame comes into the picture.
