Scripted or unscripted? That is the question…

Lauren Conrad has a dramatic, natural stare..

MTV’s The Hills is returning this week, and Newsweek.com has published an interesting post in which Lauren Conrad, the so-called “Queen of The Hills,” tries to explain how she, cast and producers make sure to “keep it real” while filming the “unscripted” hit TV show.  Me thinks it’s kinda funny:

1. It’s like an unscripted “Sex and the City.”  But we were four girls who came to L.A., and became friends over time, and friendships were broken.

2. With a dash of “The Devil Wears Prada.”  That was about a girl who works at Vogue.  I’m a girl who works at Teen Vogue.  I get yelled at a lot.  I miss birthdays and dates.

3. You’ll find out why your kids are hooked.  A lot of people tell us they watch the show with their children, and it’s something for them to have in common with their kids…

4. […] It looks more like it’s scripted because of the way they shoot it.  There’s a lot of editing.  They use our stares for dramatic effect.  All of us have more expressions on our face now, out of habit…

And my personal favorite:

7. You’ll feel young again.  A lot of older women, not even that old—I’m talking, like, late 30s—say one of the reasons they love watching is because they love reminiscing.  And remembering what it’s like to be young and free and in your early 20s.

JAHAJAHA!  I love it, Betty!  Telling women in their 30’s that they’re old.  Way to increase your ratings, girl!  I bet this will even make the really old women wanna watch with their kids!  It’s, like, so smart of you, chica!
