Lauren appeared on Chelsea Lately on June 6, 2011 to talk about her new show that got axed by MTV and her growing empire including her upcoming book release.

On February 18 UsMagazine.com reported:

Reality rumble! Though Whitney Port, 25, and Lauren Conrad, 25, were close pals on The Hills, an insider tells the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands now) that the two have gone their separate ways.

“Whitney is upset because she thinks that The City was canceled to make room for Lauren’s new reality show,” the source tells Us. “Whitney feels like she got the shaft.”

(Ironically, Conrad’s latest MTV venture was scrapped February 4 after the network deemed it too “high brow” for its current lineup.)

Whitney later took to her blog to respond to the allegation:

Hi tootsies,
This week has been a little crazy with some funny nonsense that US Weekly has been circulating. I feel sometimes like I don’t have to justify this stuff, but I just want to clear up that everything is more than fine between Lauren and me. So to put the rumor to rest, I wanted to let you know that there are no hard feelings between us! I shared something so amazing with her and just because the show is over doesn’t mean our friendship is over!

xoxo,
Whit

While she opted against hitting the blue carpet for the People’s Choice Awards, Lauren Conrad turned up for the afterparty festivities in West Hollywood on Wednesday night (January 5).

The MTV reality star/author looked stylish with a new darker hairdo as she made her way into the Covergirl 50th Anniversary Celebration at BOA Steakhouse.

Once passed through the arrivals area, LC quickly got to mingling with fellow guests while making a stop by Samantha Ronson in the deejay area.

The outing comes as Miss Conrad is gearing up for her return to the small screen with a brand new reality show on MTV focusing on her fashion efforts.
