Lauren Conrad dropped by Monday’s edition of The Ellen DeGeneres Show to talk about her reality TV hit The Hills, which returns March 24.

LC discussed moving into the new house she bought in L.A., with her BFFs Audrina Patridge and Lauren Bosworth joining her as roommates:

“[MTV] filmed us moving in. There were three girls. We had a lot of stuff. It was raining the whole weekend. We had like 15 crew members with cameras.  It was madness… We thought the house was haunted. It was built in 1922 – it was an old house. We felt it was kinda creepy. We were probably freaking ourselves out but we were convinced it was haunted. We saged it [to remove the creepiness].” (more…)

Lauren Conrad, one of the stars of the MTV reality show “The Hills”, has announced that her fashion clothing line, the Lauren Conrad Collection, is now available in stores.  She showcases her own stylings Tuesday during L.A.’s Fashion Week.

Among the striking dresses, the Whitney, a homage to Conrad’s “Hills” friend Whitney Port, is a dainty straps and A-line skirt shape, perfect for summer, while the Audrina is a seductive dress cut short above the knee, yet another homage to Conrad’s roomie Audrina Patridge, also a “Hills” star.

NYTimes.com did a review of MTV’s hit show…..“Life of Ryan” is a reality television milestone for one good reason: after years of commoners’ showboating, here comes a showboat who wants to be common. As the MTV series’s second season continues on Tuesday night, the camera crews are tracking the pro skateboarder Ryan Sheckler, someone with real talent rather than yet another manufactured, disposable celebrity.

Greg from lat34.com offers his view on the first episode of season two.

“It seems like only yesterday that we were watching Ryan Sheckler and his friends hanging out on the beach in San Clemente, watching the sun set and thinking about the future… Well, the future is here with “Life of Ryan” season two, which premiered Tuesday (January at 10 p.m. Yes, it was hard missing “The Hills,” which was its lead-in back in season one when it aired on Mondays, but if I keep the TV on after it’s over I get to see “Rob & Big.” So that’s a good trade-off, right?”
