Sweet Little Lies

Book0 Comments

200px-Sweet_Little_Lies_Lauren_ConradConrad releases the second novel in the her trilogy series. The novel titled Sweet Little Lies continues to follow character Jane Roberts after she leaves Los Angeles. In the book Jane finds herself in a tight spot when scandalous photos of her are released and she must find her way out of this mess.

The first book was a learning experience. I had to learn the whole process and I think I also had to learn to schedule writing time for myself. I had lived my life for years on a schedule and this was the first time where I would have full days to write. It was also teaching myself how to do that. Everything was very new to me. The second time around, I had a better idea of how it was done.

Guest judge

Cameo/Guest AppearanceTV Appearance0 Comments

Conrad is a guest judge on cycle 13 of America’s Next Top Model. Conrad is only signed on the judges panel for one show in the contest series and said she might considered hosting a show of her own in the future.

I wouldn’t do a show like The Hills. Nothing with my personal life, but possibly something hosting. I think I have a little bit of time to figure out what I’m going to do next.

L.A. Candy

200px-Lauren-Conrad_L.A._Candy_CoverConrad releases first novel titled L.A. Candy. The book is the first installment in a trilogy that follows Jane Roberts who moves to Hollywood and gets cast in her own reality show. The book becomes a New York Times Best Seller.

I didn’t take anything specifically that happened to me. The only thing that I did was … it was a way to show not necessarily me but just the other side of being on a show like ours. For everyone that’s done it I think you see one side and you don’t see the other. It’s kind of an interesting story to tell.

Leaves The Hills

0 Comments

Conrad announces she is leaving The Hills for other career opportunities in fashion. Since filming The Hills Conrad has been working on her own clothing line and says she is excited to live her life without cameras following her around. The Hills will bring in Kristin Cavallari as the main character to replace Conrad.

It’s bittersweet. I’ve spent the last five years making every decision be about the show. People I date have to be able to film, the places I work have to let us film and the places I live have to have set lighting. I’m ready to do things on my own. I loved doing it and had so much fun, but it came to a point where I had done it long enough.

Family Guy

TV Appearance0 Comments

Conrad voices herself as a character on Family Guy. In the episode character Brian—voiced by Seth MacFarlane—picks up Conrad’s character and thinks that she might be his soulmate.

The most exciting part is to see what you look like animated. I think that I’m basically just a blonde character though, on this episode.

Conrad stars in feature film Epic Movie. Conrad plays a satirical version of herself in the film with co-star Carmen Electra.

I don’t want to act. I tried it. … I don’t enjoy it, and I can’t make a career out of something I don’t really like. It’s not that fun, and I’m not that good at it.

The Hills

TV Appearance0 Comments

Conrad stars in MTV reality television series The Hills. The Hills is a follow up to the series Laguna Beach MTV aired through 2006. The series follows old characters from Laguna Beach like Lo Bosworth and introduces new cast members including Heidi Montag, Audrina Patridge and Whitney Port.

The Hills is filmed exactly the same as Laguna. So when people started picking out these very little things, it was weird to me because anyone who has worked on a reality show knows how they’re filmed.

Other than Conrad the show’s main characters include Stephen Colletti, Kristin Cavallari and Lo Bosworth.

It was just a big group of friends being themselves. I think it’s impossible to do that in this day and age of reality TV.

Lauren Conrad born in Laguna Beach, California

Birth0 Comments

Lauren Katherine Conrad is born in Laguna Beach, California to architects Kathy Conrad and Jim Conrad. Conrad has one younger sister Brenna Conrad and one younger brother Brandon Conrad.

Conrad began her interest in fashion throughout her childhood. Conrad’s father says that Conrad wasn’t the best student, but that he could see that she had an interest in fashion early in her life.

Lauren wasn’t a great student—she wasn’t that interested. We figured out along the way that she was an artist and her real love was fashion.

Conrad agrees:

I think that I get bored easily with things.
