The Hollywood Gossip Asks: Who is Jen Bunney?

The Hills are alive with the sound of drama. That's not new. But what is different than usual is the buzz surrounding a minor player: Jen Bunney.

For those who aren't familiar: Jen (sometimes spelled Jenn Bunney) was the center of controversy last season when she hooked up with Brody Jenner.

Brody had just broken up with Jen's friend, Lauren Conrad.

Jenn and Brody's hookup, of course, was totally encouraged by LC's "best friend" at the time, Heidi Montag, who later told Lauren she wasn't involved. Shady!

Jen Bunney insists she got the shaft. From the producers of The Hills, that is. No word on the full extent of what went on with Brody Jenner that night.

"[The Hills] was edited for dramatic purposes," she told E! Online in March. "Ridiculously. I'm upset, because it's so far from what I felt happened."

Lauren Conrad isn't buying any of that, says Jenn.

"She won't listen to me," Bunney says. "She won't believe anything I have to say. And I just think it's unfair. I wish I had talked things out with her immediately [after they happened], because she wasn't actually mad at first, but then Brody and them all got to her. They [escalated] the drama, because they wanted more drama on the show. And it's like, okay, you're going to believe Brody, who you've known for a few months, but you're not going to believe me, and you've known me for over 10 years."

Other rumors circulating right now about Jen Bunney:

1. That she is the source of the Lauren Conrad sex tape rumors, having sought revenge against her estranged friend.
2. That she recently had plastic surgery, following in the footsteps of her pretty plastic pal, Heidi Montag.

Blame it on the Bunney? Who knows the extent of Jen Bunney's involvement... or surgery. We'll we sure pass along any new gossip we hear about this Hills star, however. Drop us a line if you know anything else!
