audrina flees the hills

for those of you who watch the hills just trying to figure out what audrina is constantly looking at on the ceiling (note the picture, left, to see her eyes, which are constantly focused upward), your time is running out. on the press tour for patridge's big screen debut, sorority row - from the trailer she dies really early on, so there probably won't be a whole lot of material to gauge her acting abilities on - audrina fielded questions about the upcoming, lauren conrad-less season of the mtv reality staple. according to us weekly, audrina said "we're in the middle of finishing these episodes, and i'll be leaving then." audrina then rambled on about how the hills has made her a stronger actress, the whole reason she moved to la. she's apparently learned to "get into character" by blocking out the camera. so, are we finally done pretending like the show documents real life? i really want someone to write a giant expose on the whole series and about how fake it is, but i'm not sure any of the cast would be willing to or able to do that...the closest we'll ever get to knowing the real story is reading lauren conrad's teen-lit la candy series. what a fun way to waste time. one would think that because audrina wants to be a serious actress she'd be done with reality tv, right? not so much. audrina's next endeavor is...a solo reality series! produced by mark burnett, the new show will basically be the hills 2.0, just following audrina's "real" life. yeah, like i'm buying they're not going to stir up any controversy. if i wanted to see an unemployed actress's life, i'd just go on a trip to la or new york and eat a restaurant where she'd undeniably be my waitress. mtv has, obviously, acquired the rights to the audrina show (yes, that's the real working title) because, like disney, they know a cash cow when they see one and will premiere the series sometime in 2010, most likely paired with hills spin-off, the city. what an entertaining hour that'll be.
