Book from 'The Hills' Star Lauren Conrad to Become Movie
Lauren Conrad has definitely had a charmed life thus far. While in high school, she took part in the MTV reality series Laguna Beach. Then she gets her very own spin-off called The Hills, a job at Teen Vogue, and her own fashion line. But that's not all. If you keep an eye on the New York Times' bestseller list, you've seen that she's also a bestselling author. Oh, but the luck doesn't stop there.Variety reports that Temple Hill Entertainment nabbed the rights to L.A. Candy -- Conrad's debut novel that's spent 14 weeks on the NYT list. Heavily influenced by Conrad's own experiences, the book follows a young woman named Jane Roberts who moves to Hollywood, joins a reality show, finds fame, "and then has to deal with the ramifications of living a fishbowl life." It's also said to be the first of three, so hello sequel potential.
Conrad isn't adding "screenwriter" to her ever-growing resume quite yet, but it seems she did charm the Temple Hill peeps with "a structure of how to tell the story in an interesting fashion that was separate and apart from the book." Who knows what that means. A faux reality show vibe to a big-screen feature perhaps? Whatever the case, the girl seems to be unstoppable.
'The Hills' to Become a Feature Film?

Back when I used to watch MTV shows, Julie was getting a face full of Kevin, Montana was getting fired from her Real World job, and Trent was just about the cutest non-real human boy out there.Times have changed over the last 10 to 15 years, and now it's all about The Hills. The show always confused me since it looked like a scripted show shot in the style of a reality show, and contradicting reports still can't decide if its real, semi-real, or all a big sham. But that's not stopping them from discussing the possibility of The Hills making its way to theaters.MTV reports that according to star Lauren Conrad, it just might happen. Conrad says: "We have kind of talked about it," with a smile that MTV describes as "we have ABSOLUTELY talked about it." But really, what could a reality/spoof/whatever the hell it is, do on the big screen? "I think if they were going to do a film of The Hills, they would basically film it like we do the show and they would just edit it into a movie. It would be like a really long episode." (You can check out the video of this at the link above, but due to the damned Canada ban, I've got to stick with the type.)
Have we really come to a film industry where a feature can be just a longer episode of a reality show? I mean, it's totally unscripted, right? So, like, they'd have to hope for things to get dramatic. There definitely wouldn't be any filmmaker interference. Ha.
Even the fans are commenting that it's a bad idea over at the MTV post, but they're just nuts. Doesn't this sound like the best idea, ever? Imagine this drama on the big screen!
