Lauren Conrad Disses MTV For Dumping Her New Reality TV Show
Posted on Fri Feb 4, 2011 01:34 PM PDT
All together now: bahaha!
Lauren Conrad has major beef with MTV for dropping her new reality series, and naturally, she's released a snippy and defensive statement on the matter.
MTV exec David Janollari told Entertainment Weekly that the network has "decided not to go ahead with the show," which was slated to debut this year and follow Conrad's professional life. "She did do a pilot," Janollari told EW. "There were talks about whether we could somehow manage to put together a special based on that footage but that's also a big question mark based on her interest in that and the finances."
Conrad slammed MTV for wanting to show more of her personal life, and she released the following statement to Us Weekly:
- "We sold a show to MTV, filmed it and are really proud of the final result. MTV felt the subject matter was too high brow for their audience and offered me the opportunity to change the show by incorporating more of my personal life. We agreed going into the project that this show would be an aspirational one, focusing on my career and my goals and not my personal relationships. We delivered the show that we sold and are sorry MTV didn't feel their viewers were savvy enough to appreciate it."
Tick tock tick tock ... that's the sound of her fifteen minutes running out!

such ego that girl has. Her 15 minutes are over.
I like her. But no one is interested in her life.
She will survive.Shows come and go.
Except for Lindsay. Why is that?
a show about just her professional life (or anyones for that matter) would be boring. People dont want to watch that kind of thing..
MTV should have at least aired the pilot to see how big of an audience they would have gotten. I would have watched it.

Lauren Conrad, like Paris Hilton, no one gives a fcuk about you anymore.
Get a job.
mtv is busy airing trashy and pointless shows like the jersey shore and skins. I agree with laurens statement.
I'm educated, classy and a fan of MTV, but LC bores the living **** out of me in every way possible and always has. I have no clue why people have any interest in this chick whatsoever, I agree she needs to either go big or go home and get a real job. It's not 2005 anymore.
Millions love Paris.
Stop hating, she is not going away.
MTV is making a mistake with this one. I bet there are a lot of people out there that would crave a show about a clean cut person's professional life. I love anything Ivanka Trump is in and I'm sure Lauren's show would have been great. But no, all it is now recently is dirty,uneducated,vulgar,pregnant,disrespectful teenshows. I'm no prude and nor is Lauren but is it asking too much that they elevate the integrity of MTV?
I was really looking forward to her new show, I was actually glad they were focusing on her work more than all the fake drama. Wow MTV really screwed up on this one.
I would like to watch it
I m pretty sure that I m going to enjoy it and to be informed of how it works.
Hope she is going to sell it to another channel or to sell it like a DVD i will surely buy it.
hope all the best for Lauren.
