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

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

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY LAUREN CONRAD

Lauren Conrad & NeverWood High's Carlos E. Lopez at Justin Timberlake's concert in Madison Square Garden April 2007NeverWood High would like to wish Lauren Conrad a Happy Belated Birthday (on NWH)!!!

I was introduced to Lauren when she was about 18 or 19 years old and she is still the sweet genuine girl from Laguna Beach I first met.  Now 24, with two shows under her belt, endorsement deals and her own fashion line... I've always admired how she's stayed down to earth and well grounded.  

NeverWood High helped Lauren blow out her birthday candles last Sunday at The Roosevelt Hotel Penthouse. 

NWH invites Lauren Conrad to teach a class titled "The Secret of my Success", next semester.

Would you attend? tweet us @carlosncharge your answer.

I WANT CANDY

Lauren Conrad & her mom

You know her from coming clean in Laguna Beach and leaving the rest still unwritten in The Hills of Los Angeles.

Yes, I'm talking about none other than the sweet girl we've watched grow up on MTV, Lauren Conrad.

On a rooftop in Beverly Hills Last night L.C. celebrated her book launch at the Thompson Hotel.

“They will be titledL.A. Candyand tell a behind-the scenes story of a young girl who moves to L.A. and unexpectedly becomes the star of a reality television show. The books will be loosely inspired by my own experience and are definitely influenced by my own life. Some of the characters may symbolize people in my life, but it is in no way calling anyone out.”

Lauren, 22, adds, “I’ve always loved books that I could lose myself in, ones that would transport me to another place, but had characters I could relate to. So, I’m so excited to have this opportunity to write books like that for other readers.”

The MTV sweetheart has always allowed herself to be an open book in front of the camera and now get ready to read about it.

I love her story and I'm excited to see her have such great success. Ok, now... Here's what I have to offer!
