Bear in mind, the 2 had friction again after they had been residing collectively, together with Lo Bosworth. What fan can neglect?
However Audrina says there was extra to the roomie dynamics than cameras captured. Like Lauren’s “controlling” conduct… Ooh… She broaches the awkward topic coolly:
“Sadly, one connection that didn’t final was my relationship with Lauren, who doesn’t actually discuss to anybody from the previous forged.”
What Wasn’t On TV
Diving proper into there being extra to the story than viewers know, she says:
“There are causes that she and I aren’t buddies anymore, and there was numerous turmoil between us that we couldn’t speak about on-camera on the time. It’s what led to me transferring out of the pool home out again after I lived together with her and Lo.”
And no, it wasn’t all about her ex Justin Bobby Brescia both. Moving into the small print they couldn’t talk about on MTV, she remembers:
“Lauren and I had the identical agent and publicists, and it appeared to me that I used to be getting requests, alternatives and gigs that our mutual agent was giving to Lauren as an alternative. Sure, I blamed my brokers for this, nevertheless it nonetheless wasn’t nice for my friendship with Lauren.”
So there was a rivalry occurring there they by no means even talked about! She additionally expresses:
“I additionally discovered her to be very controlling over her buddies. For those who’re in her circle, you need to do and say what Lauren does or says. In any other case, you’re on the outs.”
Audrina says she felt obligated to observe the principles set out by MTV producers — however not those Lauren got here up with! She notes Heidi Montag skilled “the identical factor” — therefore her relationship with Lauren souring.
Ooh, rattling! We’re guessing the LC CEO wouldn’t be too blissful to listen to this description of her dynamic with buddies!
The e book does present some sympathy for her former buddy. Audrina writes:
“To an extent, I perceive eager to have management, particularly within the actuality TV world Lauren grew up in, when a lot is managed and determined for you.”
The Justin Bobby Of It All
OK, we stated it wasn’t all about Justin Bobby Brescia. However that was positively the massive occasion that ended the friendship for good. And sure, Audrina nonetheless insists she was proper — that Lauren had connected together with her ex behind her again. She writes within the e book:
“When Justin and I had been damaged up, Lauren bumped into him in Vegas and, in accordance with buddy of mine, ended up hooking up with him. After I heard this, I felt so betrayed.”
buddy, eh? Hmm… Surprise who that could possibly be… Somebody Audrina trusts greater than Lauren at any charge! Talking of that “controlling” conduct, the now-37-year-old nonetheless remembers the calculated manner her co-star performed that state of affairs. First she ghosted Audrina till the cameras had been rolling, then she caught her off guard by fully gaslighting her!
“Apparently Lauren was saving her take for the cameras, and after we lastly talked, she had all of it twisted round to make me sound like I used to be delusional and out of my thoughts. Then she acquired mad at me. Lauren and I had been by no means actually buddies once more.”
Clearly she needed to write about this. Nonetheless, Audrina — now a mother to a 6-year-old — says she doesn’t truly take into consideration that previous dangerous blood a lot anymore:
“It might be foolish to waste time on an previous feud after we’re with our households and our priorities are clearly totally different now.”
An Ex To Pine For
Apart from the LC drama, the connection most individuals are eager to examine is the one with somewhat up-and-coming actor named Chris Pine.
The 2 met in 2009, simply as he was actually getting into the stratosphere of film stardom. They loved a short however extremely publicized romance — and that second half was form of the issue.
Whereas the fact star was accustomed to having her private life be was leisure, Chris was apparently uncomfortable with that specific side of fame:
“He didn’t like going out and being adopted by the paparazzi — he was an introvert, and really targeted on his performing… I cherished to exit, and naturally I used to be often filming The Hills, so our life had been full opposites in that sense.”
Sounds prefer it was simply by no means going to work!
They’d hand around in much less paparazzi-dense areas like Silver Lake and Los Feliz, she writes, however even then they had been pictured collectively. As soon as, she remembers, a fan took their photograph — one thing she thought actually bothered him.
And naturally her personal cameras had been a difficulty as properly! She continues:
“With my filming schedule, and the truth that there was no manner Chris would need to be on [The Hills], I simply knew that after a pair months that I couldn’t date him. My life was the TV present, and there weren’t sufficient hours within the day to do my job and discover time to see him privately. He was a giant up-and-coming actor with calls for on his time, and it didn’t seem to be our lives had been lining up, despite the fact that we actually preferred one another.”
Awww! Star Trek-crossed lovers! She writes wistfully:
“We talked and stayed in contact somewhat after we stopped seeing one another. I’ve nothing however fond recollections of Chris. He was actually one of the crucial regular folks I’ve ever met in LA — and I imply that as the best praise.”
Ha! Being known as “regular” positively is a praise on this city! LOLz!
However Chris wasn’t the one A-lister Audrina acquired pleasant with…
The Leo Story
So what actually occurred between Audrina and Leonardo DiCaprio??
She tells the entire story within the e book, and it begins with a prince… who isn’t Leo!
Audrina writes about being flown to Las Vegas throughout the top of her The Hills reputation for the party of a prince — presumably not Harry, that’s a complete different Vegas story. She remembers:
“I used to be there with just a few of my castmates from the movie ‘Sorority Row,’ in addition to Megan Fox and Brian Austin Inexperienced, and even Leonardo DiCaprio.”
Yep, while you’re well-known generally worldwide royalty simply pays to have you ever at their events! But it surely was what occurred after that issues…
Audrina remembers the celebs going out clubbing after their obligations with His Highness — and that’s when Leo made his transfer!
“This bouncer stored coming over to me and saying that Leo want to get me a drink at his desk. I regarded over at his desk, and he was surrounded by supermodels. It was intimidating!”
She advised the bouncer she would say hiya, she writes, however she NEVER DID! Significantly?! With Leo?? Effectively, taking part in arduous to get did the trick as a result of ultimately he got here to her desk.
“I advised him I knew who he was, clearly, and we chatted for some time. He requested for my cellphone quantity, and we texted somewhat after the journey to Vegas, however we by no means truly frolicked.”
How anticlimactic! Sadly it was her job that she believes got here between her and yet one more celeb suitor. Leo, like Chris, is admittedly non-public in his private life. It’s not like he was ever going to be on The Hills. We imply, he’s LEO!
Talking of the fact present…
How Actual Was The Hills, Actually??
Sure, Audrina provides her personal reply to the everlasting query. Some forged members have stated the present was semi-scripted, others have denied it. The place does Patridge land in her large tell-all?? She weighs in:
“The reality? It’s someplace in between, somewhat little bit of each.”
Sadly the reply is much too sophisticated. You’d should learn the entire e book to get a clearer image, as she spends numerous time discussing — as with Lauren — how her relationships with folks had been totally different on and off-camera, the “blurred strains” between the present and life.
In reality, the friction between actuality and “actuality” was a giant concern in her relationship with Justin Bobby, as she describes:
“We acquired caught up within the manufacturing of all of it, like being artificially introduced collectively to movie sure scenes, prompted and prodded by manufacturing to share a romantic second or argue a couple of particular downside.”
That really sounds… exhausting! Even when it wasn’t “scripted” per se, they had been nonetheless filming scenes that had been another person’s thought for a TV present — and never simply residing life. And actually, that acquired in the way in which of her life again then a LOT.
