THE REST IS STILL UNWRITTEN... (NO BUT REALLY)

Lauren Conrad & Whitney Port in El Segundo for their Teen Vogue cover shootSpike, Adam Divello, Lauren Conrad & Whitney Port waiting in the Teen Vogue NY lobby at CondenastThere comes a time past or present when each generation can relate to a television character they grew up with.  Thanks to scheduled programming that helps define our culture and youth, here our just a few shows that you might remember (if you were alive).

1950's:  Ozzie & Harriet

1960's:  The Patty Duke Show, Gidget, The Monkees

1970's:  The Partdridge Family, The Brady Bunch, Happy Days, Welcome Back Cotter, The Facts of Life

1980's:  Charles in Charge, The Wonder Years, Doogie Howser M.D.

1990's:  Saved By the Bell & 90210, California Dreams, Clueless, Dawson's Creek,  Buffy the Vampire Slayer

MTV has always been ahead of the game when it comes to illustrating issues of young adults on reality TV.  You may have heard of a little show called The Real World that first started back in 1992.  A series about 7 strangers that discussed sexuality, prejudice and substance abuse.    

Modeled after one of my favorite shows The O.C., MTV created what would be a decade of drama, romance and cast of characters that we would soon all fall in love with (or not).  

Congratulations to Liz Gately, Tony Disanto & Adam DiVello on introducing us to a young girl's life from Laguna Beach named Lauren Conrad.

A reality show to most, real life for me...

L-R: Jason Sands, Steven Romero, Andrew Perry, Ben DeNoble, Lisa Love, Adam Divello, Lauren Conrad, Sara Mast, Sophia Rossi, Carlos E. Lopez, Hisham Abed, Christine Duell

MTV PREMIERES THE HILLS & THE CITY...DID YOU WATCH?

The rooftop of The London Hotel in West HollywoodKristin Cavallari is back and ready for actionIf you watched the season premiere of The Hills last night, you would have viewed Kristin Cavallari exchange some words with Stephanie Pratt and Audrina Patridge on the rooftop of The London Hotel in West Hollywood.  

and...

What better place for MTV to have their premiere party for both The Hills and The City, then on the exact rooftop these girls through down on.

The crew (behind the scenes) are like family to me as I've been there since day one and by day one...I'm talking about Laguna Beach.  I've seen this show grow from a behind the scenes stand point and even made some guest appearances on The Hills during my Teen Vogue days.

Kristin has always been one of my favorites and glad she's back on the show to spice up everyone's life.  All your favorite cast from both Hills and City were there and ready for some fun.  

Whitney Port and Roxy Olin flew in from New York to attend this Los Angeles premier night for MTV.  They sat with Kelly Cutrone from Peoples Revolution and Co-Executive Spike (one of my favorites).

Always a big supporter of Adam Divello, the creator behind The Hills and The City and Executive Producer on Laguna Beach.  Adam has turned a hit reality show into a franchise and I'm excited to see what he has in store for us next.

What would the night be without catching up with Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.  Heidi was wearing knee high Christian Louboutin boots and showed us that her boots were definitely made for walking.  Controversial or not, I've always thought these two were fun, kept it interesting and are amazing at what they put their minds to.  I met Heidi through talent producer (of Laguna Beach and The Hills) Sophia Rossi, when she first moved here from Colorado.  As for Spencer...well lets say we've seen him be a Prince of Malibu to now becoming a "King", through a name change he did this year. 

I have to admit it did feel a little weird as I stopped in my tracks on the rooftop side party...did a 360 of The Hills that surrounded us and was a little sad to see no Lauren Conrad.

But, you know what they say, THE REST IS STILL UNWRITTEN...
