Kristin Cavallari claws up The Hills as new season’s main star

The Hills are alive with the sound of Kristin Cavallari, the 23 year old newcomer to the Los Angeles based reality show with a special knack for stirring drama and holding a grudge. And while the buxom blonde certainly delivers on her reputation as ‘the mega bitch’ in the new season of The Hills, a great debate was born last night; Is K-Cav more entertaining than LC?
Totally!
The Hills rose to fame with star and narrator Lauren Conrad documenting her life outside of the Laguna Beach bubble she inhabited during high school, leaving behind a life of Steven Colletti, beach parties, love triangles, bad grades, inevitably bitchy trips to Cabo San Lucas and what she then believed, her rival Kristin Cavallari.
But cut to late 2008 in Los Angeles, the new season of The Hills coming to fruition in the minds of Adam DiVello and associates, and you have Lauren Conrad going public with her plans to leave the hit series to pursue a normal, paparazzi free life and clothing line; news hot on the heels of the arrival of Kristin Cavallari, uber bitch and boyfriend stealer, who then goes on to replace LC and spearhead the show as lead cast member and narrator! Wait, Audrina the failed actress/ stage five clinger and Lo weren’t bumped up to narrator? ‘Fraid not!
Despite their lengthy runs on the show, neither Audrina Patridge nor Lo Bosworth was given narrator duties for The Hills. The honor, however, was bestowed upon Kristin, as well as first billing in the opening title sequence. Ouch.
And people love the uber bitch, a fresh new bite on the almost over-done series.
In an interview with night show host, Chelsea Handler of Chelsea Lately, Handler praised Kristin’s raw honesty, confidence and her ability to admit that, ‘yeah, The Hills is fake,’ while maintaining elsewhere that the directors do reply on casting people who “bring the drama”, something this Laguna Beach alum does quite well.
Making a ‘total bee line’ for Audrina’s ex, Justin Bobby, in the first episode of season 6, (who, P.S. Didn’t even say hi to Audrina, god, can you, like, believe that?) Kristin rubbed every single female cast member the wrong way, with the only Hills starlet not to take a post-party stab at the newcomer being Heidi, member of the American marital mess known as Speidi with husband and pratt, Spencer Pratt.
The remainder of the episode centred around Stephanie, Lo, Jayde and Audrina consistently talking about Kristin, what Kristin does, what Kristin is like, should Jayde be worried about Brody now that Kristin is here, does Brody still like Kristin, how Kristin likes Justin Bobby, how Justin Bobby seems to like Kristin, what Kristin and Justin Bobby might be doing, how Justin Bobby and Kristin probably went home together after Frankie’s birthday lunch, how big Kristin’s ego is, how Kristin is a boyfriend stealer… Kristin, Kristin, Kristin!
But for Cavallari, it’s all a job.
The reality star and actress happily admits she was brought on board to purposely shake things up, to do the one thing she knows the directors will love; bring the drama. And at exactly 6 minutes 55 seconds deep into the first episode, Kristin Cavallari is a job well done.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion of the new season, and mine is that I was quite dissappointed with the first show. I felt that Kristen, whether acting or not, showed how truly classy she really is! She acted like a wild woman, with no manners or morals. I am sure once Audrina & Lo quit the show, it will be done. It’s already a known fact that Kristen is trouble starting, apparently a little too easy, and expected to cause problems, so there will be no surprises on this season. It would be a better show based on Speidi….Lauren may not have had a lot of drama at the end of last season, but at least she had a classy reputation. Kristen has everything but that.

I loved Kristin in Laguna Beach five years ago and I never watched Lauren’s The Hills. I now will religiously watch the Hills with Kristin as the main character!

I think that Kristin will be good, but by god does that girl need a slap!!! Why is everyone so afraid of her???? I think she is a good actress and she is not been truely herself!!!! LC was starting to wreck my head, she just never stopped moaning!!!! But it is true that Kristin will spice things up….. But what would make my day will be the girls standing up to her and if she starts playing dirty throw it right back twice as hard!!!! The whole thing with her liking Justin all of a sudden….eh… DON’T THINK SO!!! She is just being a BITCH!!! So Audrina should just play it cool and not pay ANY attention to what she is mouthing about!!!! P.S Girls that have a mouth on them are usually INSECURE,SAD and LONELY!!!!

I love Kristin! Her attitude is great and girls love to hate her. The thing with Justin, come on! And first and foremost, Audrina and Stephanie started that crap with Kristin, all she did was speak to the guy and they got all ralled up because he didn’t Justin didn’t speak to Audrina but took it out on Kristin, lol, hilarious! But what got me is when Kristin tried to talked to Audrina about the whole thing and Audrina stood her up, who’s not classy? Please, spear me! the only reason people thinks she is “such a bitch” is because she says what she feels and has all the confidence in the world. She’s not one of those to stay in the background fading in with others that like to mainly taljk crap behind your back instead of saying it to you directly. And this whole Brody thing, seriously! Not Kristin’s fault ay all Jade hated her from jump all because Brody and Kristin dated (years ago) but are still good friends, can we say insecure? The whole thing is so funny to me, it’s like “spead the word, Kristin is this huge bitch and a man stealer”, please move on,! Who’s man did she steal? If people are talking about Laguna Beach then you need to go back and watch the episodes because to my knowledge Ms. Lauren (LC) was trying to steal Stephen from Kristin! So, who’s the real man stealer?! The main thing about Kristin is that she knows how to play the game but that’s just who and how she is and girls, like I said, love to hate her.

I loved Kristin on Laguna Beach but The Hills belong to Lauren. Lauren was actually a smart girl who worked hard, went to school and had drama with her friends. The work balance is completely missing from this new season and it makes for a lesser show.

i agree. the hills did belong to lauren, until kristin has to come with her group of “people” and wreck everything. it’s not even the hills anymore.
