Lauren Conrad

The Hills are alive with the sounds of...

... crying.

As tragically reported in the past, Lauren Conrad will not be taking part in The Hills: New Beginnings.

She's chosen to distance herself from the upcoming reality show revival.

MTV's reboot of The Hills sure made a lot of headlines at last week's VMAs, but whether the buzz ends there remains to be seen.

In other words, will it lead to any actual viewers?

Everything that's old is new again, and the The Hills reboot is really happening.

But Lauren Conrad won't be taking part in The Hills: New Beginnings, which leads some fans to wonder what it will be like.

In case anyone needs a reminder, podcasts are totally public. If you're a celebrity and you go on a podcast and make a total ass of yourself, people are going to find out.

If you come across as a bigot, even if you didn't mean to, it is not going to stay a secret.

At least one major part of Lauren Conrad's book is longer unwritten; The Hills and Laguna Beach alumna has just become a mother!

Lauren and her husband, William Tell, welcomed a son named Liam James Tell on Wednesday, July 5, a source confirmed moments ago.

It seems like just yesterday that Lauren Conrad was one of the most important women on all of reality TV. With her quick wit, great fashion sense and likable personality, fans connected with her. 

It was probably down to the fact that Spencer Pratt was spreading rumors about her like they were going out of fashion. God, we miss the days of The Hills.

Lauren Conrad is ringing in the new year with a very exciting announcement:

She's pregnant with her first child!
