We would like to start out by apologizing to Ted Casablanca for insinuating that he made up a ridiculous rumor about Lauren Conrad hooking up with former BFF Audrina Patridge's on-again hobo boyfriend Justin Bobby. Turns out Ted didn't start the fire — it was Spencer Pratt. We should have seen that one coming.
On Friday we blew off the entire story, insisting that it was so ridiculous nobody could take it seriously. Soon after, both Audrina and Lauren issued statements — Audrina claiming that she's "not sure what to believe" and "these rumors are very confusing and hurtful" while Lauren insisted she would "never hurt a friend like that." For the record, we believe Lauren. No way would she hook up with JB.
Lauren also went on to confirm that Spencer was likely behind the story — much like he was behind her nonexistent sex tape from last year: "Hmmmmmm. I wonder who it could be? I'm baffled….What kind of person would enjoy watching blogs and the press tear me apart?" Naturally, Spencer had something to say. And it was delusional and ugly. CONTINUED »
This seems like complete and utter nonsense, but a recent blind item is creating a buzz about Lauren Conrad and a possible bun in the oven:
This Hills and/or Laguna Beach star is pregnant. Now if we could just figure out the daddy.
In the video above, one of the paps ask LC how the baby is. If the paparazzi know about this, it must be true.
Laguna Beach alum Jason Wahler, best known for being Lauren Conrad's loser ex-boyfriend, is also gaining a reputation for being a racist.
First things first: Jason went to rehab last year for his drug and alcohol addictions — and for sharing some of his favorite racist terms with a police officer.
Also good for Jason: After he left rehab, he immediately proposed to his college student girlfriend. This is obviously a new step in the program.
Now comes news that Wahler has been banned from his fiance's apartment building.
The ban is the result of Wahler's use of racial slurs against a security guard on February 10 at Conquest's Tuscany. 'He called him the N word,' a source tells Us [Weekly].
A Conquest rep adds, 'Jason Wahler's racist remarks were uncalled for. He is no longer welcome in the building.'
Jason is saying none of this ever happened. Um, why else would the apartment building ban you? Wait … don't answer that.

While little brother Barron was in the clinker for his DUI arrest, Paris Hilton was partying it up in Vegas. You know if Nicky had left Paris in jail while she went and got plastered, there would be hell to pay … but that is neither here nor there.
The big story is that while she was at Pure nightclub in Vegas, she was joined by Laguna Beach alum Kristin Cavallari — and the two are rumored to have engaged in a make-out session. These "Paris is a lesbian!" rumors are starting to grow old. Who cares where she's spreading her diseases? Just stay away from us.
[Lauren Conrad] was making out with Stephen Colletti, her ex from their days on Laguna Beach and a host for MTV, at LA's Central on Saturday night.
After arriving together Conrad and Colletti stayed close to each other all night, flirting and chatting. They were spotted making out by the bar after Colletti carried her there from the dance area.
Rebecca: omg
if you watched Laguna Beach, you'd understand
though you're "too mature" for that
me: what's the big deal?
did they hate each other?
Rebecca: They dated in high school
off and on
he sort of played her, and then he realized that after high school, girls like men who can shave
so then he was really into her
and she was like so over it
me: THAT'S MY LIFE!!!
Rebecca: Hello, that's why it's called reality tv
Jason Wahler, the hater (literally) from Orange County—seen here with his ex-gf/Laguna Beach costar LC—has followed the lead of every drunk asshole in Hollywood: He's checked himself into rehab.
"Jason's in rehab, and he's getting help," said the relative, who declined to give her name.
"He's doing well, and he's going to be a new man," she added. "There was a deal made [with prosecutors]."
Wahler, 20, was due to surrender to Los Angeles County jail last week to serve a 60-day sentence for a September 2006 assault case, but a judge delayed that in lieu of rehab.

Well, there goes the neighborhood. I've just learned that MTV is planning their next debauchery filled, whiny teen drama in—as Roker would say—"my neck of the woods." This is unbelievably disheartening, as I partially based my apartment hunt around how easily it would be to avoid MTV. Time to start searching Craigslist.
According to the Brooklyn Tech High School website, MTV is now casting at their school to do a pilot for a new reality show, called Brooklyn, based on the lives of the school's gifted and talented sophomore and junior hipsters. Apparently they're unconcerned about the criticisms aimed at MTV's depictions of party life in Hawaii in Maui Fever or of the shallow materialistic teens in Laguna Beach.
"With a student body of 4,000, BTHS represents the many faces of teenagers in Brooklyn," the school's website says. "Rich, poor, Asian, Black, White, Hispanic and everyone in between come here to learn."
MTV made sure to note that, while they will attempt to create an ethnically diverse cast, producers are unwavering in their demand that cast members be good looking and "not fatties." They also stressed that viewers can expect the "old standbys," including at least one very angry black person with daddy issues, a very naive white girl, a party boy with a charmed life and a gay guy who's cooler and smarter than the others.
May their cameramen slip on the frozen dog pee.

Aww look, the little guy from Laguna Beach who just wanted a nice blonde to call his own seems to have found love with the only Pussycat Doll that matters. Her name is Nicole Something that starts with an H and his name is Talan something that starts with a T. Please forgive me for refusing to actually learn either of their last names. Believe me, though, if I needed to talk about either one of them I can mumble them out quite convincingly.
This couple may come as a surprise to the few of you who care, but if you're as weirdly full of useless information as I am, you may remember that when Talan paid a visit to Kathy Griffin's niece on My Life on the D-List he did make an allusion to a PCD being in bed with him that morning. Let's just hope it was the same one.

Every time I tell myself to stop watching this season of Laguna Beach because it's both extremely forced and insanely boring, I still watch. It's not even a guilty pleasure, because there's really no pleasure. One aspect that is vaguely amusing, however, is that LBer Cami seems to legitimately despise her "best friend" Kydra. MTV Canada made this lovely little remix of Cami's noises, often imitating Kyndra's voice. It's the best thing to come out of LB Season Three yet.

I'm sure you've all heard by now of this new MTV promotional tool Virtual Laguna Beach. The game is sort of like The Sims where in you make yourself a fictional avatar and interact with other fictional avatars, make fictional avatar friends who are really sexually predatory middle-aged men (I kid, I'm sure no one lies on this thing!), buy clothes, make out, try to become popular, all in Virtual Laguna Beach, complete with the real kid's favorite hang outs.
Being the intrepid reporter that I am, I went ahead and signed up for VLB today.(Come find me! My name is MollyGood! I want to be the most popular girl in VLB!) So there I was, stumbling around trying to buy clothes and hair and stuff when:
a) A stranger (female) asked me to go shopping.
b) A young male asked if I wanted to go down on him.
See, it's just like Real Laguna Beach!
While I don't think there's any way to act out fellatio, it's nice to see that all attempts to keep the game PG are failing wildly.

It's been a rough month for Jason Wahler (of Laguna Beach and The Hills "fame") and the fuzz. Just three weeks ago J-Wahl was arrested for a slew of silly things in New York and this weekend he got in a bit of an altercation with a tow truck operator (see, this never would have happened in the old timey car). TMZ reports:
For the second time this month, "Laguna Beach" star Jason Wahler has been arrested. As Perez Hilton first reported, the LAPD arrested Wahler on Friday at 5:30PM for misdemeanor battery and set his bail at $20,000. According to LAPD documents, he was released Saturday afternoon.
According to police, Jason and a female companion, Kristen Deluca, were involved in an altercation with a Department of Transportation officer and a tow truck driver. There was a physical altercation and police were called to the scene. After police arrived on the scene, Wahler and Deluca were both arrested for battery.
The reality show star was busted three weeks ago in New York and charged with one count each of disorderly conduct, possession of a controlled substance, resisting arrest and bribery. According to the court documents, Wahler was obstructing traffic by standing in the street and creating a public disturbance. Officers then attempted to handcuff the 19-year-old, but he resisted. When they performed a search on him, they allegedly found cocaine in his pants pocket. Wahler then allegedly tried to bribe officers into letting him go.
A quick search on this Kristen Deluca character comes up with this gem of a website (NSFWish, and I'm sure very NSFW if you snoop around). I guess she's got an arrest to add to that resume of hers.
LC never would have let him sink this low.
* I know, I know, I've used these pics before. I just loved this moment so much.
This photo, taken the night of the arrest clearly proves that he was not, in any way, on drugs. Not. At. All.
Tragedy has struck the most gifted of the gifted and talented club of Laguna Beach, Jason Wahler. He who breaks hearts without ever having to speak a full English sentence thanks to the strength stored in his chin strap of facial hair was arrested on September 1 in New York City. E!'s Kristin reports:
From isgoodhere: What's the latest on Laguna Beach? Any scoop?
And how. This one is pretty sad. A rep at the NYPD confirms that Jason Wahler (Lauren's ex, who appeared on Laguna Beach and The Hills) was arrested in New York City on Sept. 1, at 4:34 a.m. He was charged with three counts of bribery, criminal possession of a controlled substance, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. So, if you're wondering how he took that breakup with Lauren, well, you may have your answer.
Watch with Kristin: Television news, gossip and spoilersFrom francesca: That's too bad! I really like Jason. Do you know what he's been up to since The Hills?
Korbi is in tight with the LB peeps, and she tells me that since breaking up with LC, Jason's been living with a couple pf different friends and is now allegedly living on Jordan and Brian's couch. Andy Milonakis still lives with them, too.
I assume Jessica paid his bail.
Wow, that sounds like the most depressing apartment ever. Where reality tv stars go to die. And by die, I mean make fart jokes.

Who knew that Alex M. from Season Two of Laguna Beach was really just doing the show to promote her budding music career? And who knew that just a year later we would be seeing Alex debut her new album? Apparently she did. Or something.
*Yeah, yeah, she sounds fine, I just couldn't resist.

Lauren and Jason in happier, more old-timey car times.
Oh, the horror. Us Weekly is reporting exclusively that Lauren Conrad (LC if you're Naughty) and Jason Wahler (or J-Wahl if you want him to actually respond, not the sharpest, that boy) are dunzo. Yes, the dramatic young reality television stars who held on through thick, thin, and the end of the season one of The Hills, couldn't ultimately make it work.
And to think, they seemed to communicate so well. Er, maybe one time Jason uttered a complete sentence…so there's that. Lauren had this to say for herself:
“Yes it is true, Jason and I are no longer together, but out of respect for his privacy I am not going to discuss the details of the breakup,” she says.
“Even though I am on a reality based show and I live much of my life in a fish bowl, I think anyone would understand that I need to keep some of my life private.”
Sources tell Us that it was Conrad who broke it off with boyfriend Jason Wahler. “He had been going out to clubs, flirting with girls, staying out late,” says a pal of Conrad’s.
“She wanted to focus on school and her career and was ready to move on. She feels really good about her decision.”
A second source adds she had a JASON tattoo covered up at the Hart & Huntington tattoo parlor at the Palms Casino resort last weekend when she and fellow Hills star Heidi Montag were visiting Sin City.
Well, it's a good thing Lauren didn't turn down a once-in-a-lifetime (or a season, whichever) internship in Paris to stay in Los Angeles and live with Jason this summer.
Oh, wait.
Somehow I assume he'll be back around by season two. If we're lucky their reconciliation will involve more of J-Wahl's dad's car collection.
In other Laguna news, Us also lets us know that Kristin Cavallari re-dunzo-ed Facehumpy Brody Jenner. Yawn.
