Lauren Conrad may have retired from reality TV, but that doesn’t mean she’s left her friends from The Hills behind. She and former co-star Whitney Port reunited onstage – and looked fabulous – as presenters on last week’s VH1 Divas.
Asked to name the biggest diva she knew, LC didn’t hesitate.
“Whitney Port?” Lauren joked, after which her taller, NYC transplant counterpart responded with a laugh, “I was just going to say Lauren Conrad.”
Kidding aside, Lauren may not be keen on tuning into the new-look season of The Hills, but she is very excited for the premiere of Whitney’s The City.
“She’ll support me,” Whitney Port said of Lauren.
The ladies talked about how they had a hard time adjusting to working with PR guru Kelly Cutrone, who complicates Whitney’s life in the new season.

Whitney said she thinks her friend had even scarier encounters with Cutrone than she has. “I feel like you [had a harder time] because you had to meet her in that really awkward position at the runway show,” Port said to Conrad.
“She’s been kind of like a den mother to me,” Whit added of her boss, who will be featured on The City. “She’s been really, really great. I have no complaints.”
“You know there are Devil Wears Prada situations, but it’s a love-hate relationship. She has to be strict because that’s the way she gets her business done.”
Port also recently shared with us some of the “empowering” advice she got from another one of her mentors, celebrity fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg.
“Diane taught me a lot about empowering myself as a woman, and in my relationship world, she taught me a lot about appreciating and putting myself first.”
New episodes of The City premiere Tuesday, September 29, at 10:30 p.m., right after The Hills. Follow the jump for a video of LC and Whitney’s interview …
