In Defense Of Whitney Port And Her Yellow-Wearing Ways


When Roxy Olin was selling Whitney out to Kelly Cutrone during The City premiere, she called her fashion cred into question, accusing Whit of being a "plain Jane" who (gasp!) "wears yellow." And while we won't even get into the ridiculousness of Slam #1 (except to say, um, AS IF!), we will wholeheartedly defend Whitney's choice of color.
Above, we present the gorgeous kimono-like top Whitney wore on her first day at DVF. Fashionable? Yes. Funereal, head-to-toe black? No, but that's not always a bad thing, even in NYC! And for the record, if Whit missed the yellow-is-out memo, she's among great company. Below, check out Hills gals LC and Audrina Patridge (plus the always-stylish Olivia Palermo!) showin' off their fave lemony looks. Take that, haters!

Reminder: Heidi Montag Pratt is Guest Hosting on 'The View' Today

Stephanie Pratt: On Roxy Olin and Leaving The Hills

We’re going to be flat out honest here: We really like Stephanie Pratt. At 23, she is straightforward and sweet. She tells it like she feels it. She did some red carpet commentary for Fancast during the Emmy Awards, and users loved dishing with her.
She has also been blessed in the looks department. But she’s struggled with eating issues, and opened up about the kind of insecurities that has let other girls relate to her more than some of her co-stars on ‘The Hills‘, which premiered September 29. “My self-esteem has always been one of my biggest issues,” she told US Weekly in June. “I’ve always been insecure about my body.”
And then she dropped a bombshell this week. “I think Audrina (Patridge), Lo(Bosworth) and I are all going to leave after these 10 episodes,” she told Hollyscoop.com. “I was going to stay and see what happens after these 10 episodes, but I just don’t think I can stand ‘The Hills’ anymore.”
Wait. She can’t stand ‘The Hills’?
“I hate what this show has turned my life into,” she said as she got ready for a video shoot from her home in Pacific Palisades. “I’m so happy and blessed, but I wasn’t prepared for this. I didn’t grow up wanting to be an actor.”
There’s more.
Stephanie says she was recently devastated when Roxy Olin, one of her best friends since grade school, walked out of her life and into a juicy role on ‘The City‘ as Whitney Port’s best pal - and according to her, the two were not even close with Port. She recently spoke about that situation and more.

Since it’s on your mind, tell me about your friendship with Roxy Olin?
[She's] the best friend I have had since the 7th grade pretty [and she] much took my heart out and stabbed it. She wanted to be an actress her whole life. Her dad actually does the show ‘Brothers & Sisters’ along with his wife [Ken Olin and Patricia Wettig] Since her parents are in that business, she has always wanted to be an actress. She grew up in LA and went to the same school as me. I have a matching tattoo with [Roxy]. We’re complete soul mates.
But you went separate ways for a few years and then ran into each other again?
Yeah [Pratt went to France and Olin to New York], and then we ran into each other in LA and we started to talk. At that time I had fallen into ‘The Hills,’ and she ended up being on an episode with me. She wanted to stay on it, but her parents didn’t let her. Her mother said some pretty mean things about reality TV, saying that she comes from a family of respected actors and that there’s no way she’ll be on reality TV. It was pretty crazy. So she was totally bummed.
But she almost ended up on ‘The Hills’ right?
I knew she really wanted to do it. I told her to ask her parents if she could come back on the show. I knew Lauren [Conrad] was leaving and it could be us against Kristin [Cavallari]. It would be great. She asked her parents and they were supportive of it. I thought it was fabulous and I was so excited. So I called ['The Hills' creator and executive producer] Adam DiVello and we set up a meeting and basically I told him about the idea. They made a meeting, and she called me right after and she said that her test shoot was gonna be in New York

How did you feel about the possibility of her coming on board?
I was so excited!
And then things went a little sour?
We were at the MTV Movie awards,sitting in our seats and she goes up to use the restroom and Adam DiVello comes and sits down next to me in her seat. I had Audrina [Patridge] to my left, Holly [Montag] behind me, Lo [Bosworth] to my right and then Lauren). So Adam is like “Your friend is leaving for New York!” I was shocked and asked him what he was talking about. He said, “Your best friend is leaving.” And I started to cry. Audrina and Holly and Lo and Lauren then huddled up around me. They were like my makeup squad, trying to help me get myself together.
Did you talk to your friend about it?
I didn’t say anything to her. Then at the after-party, I’m sitting there watching Roxy, who is not even friends with Whitney, holding her hand and going around and meeting everyone. Roxy was like “I can’t wait to be on ‘The City,’” and I’m overhearing this, and I’m like “What!? What is going on? She hates Whitney!” I felt like I was just kind of like losing my mind. So we leave and I didn’t want to bring it up yet. I can’t even explain the feeling. Afterwards I finally called her and said “I gotta know, if you’re going in ‘The City,’ I would really like to talk to you about it.”
What did she say?
She called me on a Thursday while I was at my parent’s beach house in Santa Barbara and asked me to get a coffee. I told her that I was coming back tomorrow and we should get lunch. Suddenly she said, “I’m moving for New York tomorrow. I’m gonna be on ‘The City’,” and I just fell to pieces.

Did you ever get an explanation?
Adam called me to explain. I was like “How can you do this to me? Roxy is my best friend in the whole world. She keeps me sane and you’re putting her on this show. And we don’t even get along with this girl.” And he goes, “Stephanie, she came into that meeting saying, ‘Listen I’m tired of being Stephanie’s sidekick. If I’m gonna give up acting to be on a reality show then I wanna be a main character and not a sidekick on the fifth season on ‘The Hills.’” He also said “Stephanie, she said she doesn’t want to live in your shadow.”
Have you talked to her about it since?
I still haven’t talked to her about it. She still hasn’t called. I’ve been following her on Twitter though. She was like “Loving ‘The City’ life, loving my friend Whitney.” I just can’t believe it. All I did was try to help her. For two years.

Audrina Patridge Feels 'Safe' Again


Audrina Patridge feels better now that the restraining order against her alleged stalker has been extended.
A TMZ camera captured a smiling Patridge, 24, leaving the L.A. court.
"I feel safe," she said.
Patridge has claimed that Loring originally arrived at her door step to deliver wine, and then tried to hand her cards, drawings, poems and photos – one of which showed a woman being strangled.
He showed up again four days later, and Patridge called the cops who arrested him for trespassing.
On Wednesday, Patridge read one of the poems from the alleged stalker on the stand.
The judged called the evidence "quite disturbing," TMZ reports.
"It’s unfortunate that people who pursue careers in the public have to deal with these people," he said.
The restraining order also protects the reality show star’s brother Mark, since he lives with her.

Stephanie Pratt Wants Queen Latifah To Play Her In 'L.A. Candy' Movie


Lauren Conrad's post-"Hills" career seems to be going quite well. On Wednesday (September 30), it was announced that the producers behind "Twilight" would be turning her novel, "L.A. Candy," into a movie. And although the novel isn't directly based on her life on "The Hills," there's a good chance that some of those characters are based on her friends from the show.
Lauren's former coworker Stephanie Pratt couldn't be more excited to see her friend's novel come to life. And she has a few ideas about who should play her in the fictionalized version of her life.
"I would probably say Queen Latifah. I love her. I really love her," she told MTV News back in August. "Someone more in my age ... does that mean Christina Applegate is too old to play me too? OK, Ashley Tisdale."
The novel is the first in a series, which means there's a good chance a movie franchise will be spawned from the books. "[The film] needs to have a sequel!" Pratt exclaimed. "She's writing, like, three books and it was, like, on the bestseller [list] — crazy!"
Pratt shared that she thinks her pal deserves all of the success coming to her. "You know what? I think she's, like, the most deserving person because if you actually meet her, like, she's so down to Earth," she explained. "And she's the only one that has not changed [a bit]. It's really, like, so nice. It's all so deserving."

Stephanie cracks me up! : )
