There is no one happier than me to have Lauren Graham back on television on the show Parenthood. I mean this girl should never be away from a television set. She is also the March 2010 cover girl for More magazine. I had no clue she was over 40, she still looks like she is 30! Here are some highlights from the interview:

On her unconventional upbringing: “My dad had really boring cars. We didn’t have an answering machine. We didn’t even own a microwave until I was in college. It was two people reading most of the time. But they I’d go see my mother in London, where there’d be members of a band and these kooky dinners, and just a way more bohemian energy. It gave me a taste for adventure and an appreciation that not everybody lives the same way.”

On dating: “I’ve only connected with people I met by accident. My first boyfriend in high school was the guy who sat in front of me, because, you know, alphabetically we were soul mates. I looked at the back of his head long enough that I was like, ‘I think I’m in love with you.’”

On being single in her 40s: “What is so funny to me is I’m in a profession where two percent of people are working, yet there’s still this implication that you’re not completely successful if you’re single and in your forties. Well, why not? I wanted a horse when I was growing up too. Does that mean I’m not successful, because I don’t have a horse?”

On Twitter and Facebook: “Why would I want to be more accessible? The Internet’s so crazy. It’s my dad in me that goes, ‘No more progress. No more technology.’ ”

I’m not usually into celebrities and their clothing collections but that was before I saw Lauren Conrad’s 2010 Spring Collection for Kohl’s. I am wishing right about now that I knew if we even had a Kohl’s here in Canada. I could never usually picture myself wearing clothes that most celebrities model but these ones I could.

The dresses and outfits run about $60 (some are over that price) and they come in sizes XS to XL. That blue dress above is to die for. I’m not a dress person but Lauren’s are so pretty.

With great joy, I hope you pick up my sarcasm here, The Hills has been picked up for another season. Season six if you are keeping count. I have to admit that I haven’t watched but one episode, oh wait, I have watched ONE episode of last season’s but when I realized Lauren Conrad wasn’t in it I couldn’t continue.  Even though Spencer Pratt follows me on Twitter I will try not to say that it’s all Spencer’s fault. Because I know I was thinking I would enjoy more time with Spencer and Heidi Montag. But it just wasn’t the same to me.

And in other news Kristen Cavallari is blaming editing on it looking like Justin Bobby and her were together. And get this she said that just because they kissed it didn’t mean they were intimate. I only kiss people I intend to be intimate with. I must be the only one like that I guess.

So how many other people will be leaving by the end of the sixth season? Does anyone want to place bets?

Audrina Patridge has finally decided to head away from the hills and leave. Now you can only imagine how this makes me feel. Because now with Lauren Conrad and Audrina gone it’s going to become the Speidi show. I don’t really care to watch them all the time. I am sure that they are gloating in the fact that they will be the center of the universe.

“I’m almost done with The Hills. We’re in the middle of finishing these episodes, and I’ll be leaving then,” she revealed. “It feels like I’m graduating. I’m taking the next step and growing up and maturing and moving on in my life.”

I hope she goes on to something successful. OR maybe if she doesn’t she can go back to The Hills. A girl can dream can’t she?

In what is breaking news to me, because I always held out on the hope that The Hills wasn’t staged, I get my confirmation from Lauren Conrad that everything I believed was a lie. Yes, I’m being dramatic about it, because well they faked it so I am going to now too.

Do you remember the episode where Lauren was at work and Spencer Pratt called and said sorry about spreading the sex tape rumors so that she would go to the wedding? I guess that Lauren never even got an apology and it was all staged! Lauren explained it all on The View.

“To be perfectly honest, I wasn’t on the other end of that call,” Conrad told The View co-host Elizabeth Hasslebeck.

“What do you mean?” Hasslebeck asked.

“That was filmed and I wasn’t on the other end,” Conrad reiterated. “I didn’t even know about it until [afterwards],” Conrad added afterwards. “So no, I didn’t get an apology, he’s lying.”

I can’t believe that they would lie! And all the time I thought that everything really happened that way! No wonder Lauren wants out!

She also said that she went to the wedding just so she wouldn’t regret it later. Not because Spencer apologized. That just makes me wonder what else is really fake.

The season finale of The Hills is tomorrow. And of course it’s the wedding episode. I’m sure true to Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt style it comes without drama. But who else is at the wedding? Kristin Cavallari. What’s so funny about this clip is that they keep saying her first and last name…what is up with that? Catch the season finale tomorrow.

P.S. I’m going to miss you Lauren Conrad.

You can say what you want about The Hills but this is one damn fine cast picture. I don’t see anyone that isn’t good looking in this picture. The new season premiere is next Monday, April 6th.

“I actually thought last season was going to be my last,” [Lauren says]. “[But] the producers wanted to hopefully give the show some sort of closure and needed one more season. I didn’t have that much conflict in my life over the last few months.” She adds, “I think I only cry in one episode.”

I wonder how Heidi Montag’s pregnancy will fit into the story line?

I have to give props to the photographer of these shots though. The guys Spencer Pratt, Justin Bobby and Brody Jenner all look very hot. This season should be an exciting one. I’ll miss it not being on since it was one of my guilty pleasures.

More pictures…

I seriously can’t believe that Lauren Conrad has a book out…and it’s Fiction too. I have tried more than once to write a book and it’s hard work! And besides blogging gives you that instant satisfaction in writing…

The book is about a fictional 19-year-old Jane Roberts that has a life similar to Lauren. The synopsis of the book goes something like this… “Roberts can’t wait to start living it up. She may be in L.A. for an internship, but Jane plans to play as hard as she works and has enlisted her BFF Scarlett to join in the fun.”

And the fun doesn’t stop there, the two main characters are approached by a producer who wants them to be in a reality show called Sexy and the City. What do you think? Will it be a hit or a miss?

I admit it…I have been watching every minute of The City. There is something that bugs me about that Olivia girl though, she just seems like she’s just too way good for all of this. And now in the Spring The Hills will be back for their Season 4 bonus episodes.

And I also found some great spoilers about the new episodes so if you don’t want to know, don’t look. SPOILERS AHEAD.

Stephanie will step in as Lauren’s new Whitney at People’s Revolution. Yes, Spencer’s sister has gotten a job at Kelly Cutrone’s People’s Revolution. It makes sense. Who else is there to make the “Oh!” face for all of Lauren’s drama during the day.

Lo will be a working girl, too. She’ll get a job working for Davis Factor (grandson of Max Factor) at cosmetics powerhouse Smashbox Studios. All of that time on the sidelines is finally paying off for Lo!

Bromance, rekindled! Let’s let out that sigh of relief all together. Brody and Spencer are back together.

Lauren and Lo’s $11,000-a-month Hollywood Hills home is available for lease, so expect yet another moving day episode. But don’t fret: The best friends forever are still roommates, says MTV.

And as for Speidi … We know there’s a brunette bartender now in the picture. Will we see an actual wedding? Followed by a messy divorce? We can only hope.

I can’t get over how expensive it is to live in the Hollywood Hills, two months rent there could get me a downpayment on a house! But it looks like these extra episodes are going to rock. I may end up crying when Lauren and Heidi cry again!

In this world where anyone can be called a celebrity, even a reality show star like Spencer Pratt, I have to say that he is one whipped boy. It was raining in Malibu on Friday and where was Spencer? Helping out his bride, Heidi Montag, while she was working out in the rain. Heaven forbid she might get her hair messed up…(Please, she is working out…I’m sure the rain would feel refreshing!)

There are also rumors of Spencer plotting a fake messy divorce, because honestly we haven’t seen much of them around lately.

“Spencer is masterminding the whole thing right now,” says a source. “He’ll make sure people see him going in and out of a lawyer’s office. Then he’ll stage fake fights with Heidi for the cameras and talk on the show about getting married too young and pretend he’s really conflicted.”

“Spencer will push this as far as he can, but it will all be 100 percent fake. He loves Heidi and will never let her go,” says the source, who adds, “They’re just always looking for a way to out-drama Lauren Conrad. It’s their No. 1 goal in life!”

I think they need to get a life and worry about themselves…it’s not always cool wanting to be the center of attention all the times. Oh wait…that’s what they thrive on!
