The playful and pretty star of The Hills, Lauren Conrad, had herself some fun with a sock puppet at the P.S. Arts 10th Annual Express Yourself Gala at Santa Monica Airport's Barker hanger on Sunday. She was all smiles, that's for sure!

What was this LC sock puppet thinking, though? That's another story ...

That's right ... Lauren Conrad doesn't even have to open her mouth. Everyone - even puppets - knows that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are Hollywood's most hated. Just the same, what would we do without Heidi and Spencer to pick on?

Well, we would probably just go on and on about how we love Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port. But that was meant more as a rhetorical question really.
