real? I have only seen it a few times (because if was so annoying) but it seems scripted. And those people are always in People magazine. I don't get shows like that.

you couldn't add "real?" to the title of the thread?

no, it isn't real.

8/14/2008 9:13:20 PM

yeah its real, but they do make sure its polished up
but there is no script or anything if thats what you mean

on the other had the other shows like Next and date my mom are like 50% fake

8/14/2008 9:16:21 PM

it's real in the sense that they go out to nightclubs all the time, but they retape conversations to make them look good on film and lauren's job is fake.

next is like 90% fake. yeah, they hang out for a short period of time, but when they're "nexted" or what ever the hell they call it, they obvious pause the show so they can learn there witty exit lines. they're basically fed lines for every transition.

Of course not...I had to do it this way so you would have to ask that question.

The parties on the show are set up by the producers.

The arguments and conflicts are put in motion by the producers (i.e. "Ask her about xxxx").

It's pretty much as far from "real" as you can get without being a scripted show.

" Beasley divulged some details regarding his cameo, including how producers asked him to get Conrad's phone number and told him what to ask her. "They wanted me to ask her about the runway show, how long she had worked that day, when would she get off, stuff like that," Gavin Beasley said. Thursday, an MTV rep responded that producers "overheard" that Gavin Beasley was "planning to ask Lauren Conrad out on a date." And while maintaining that the show is not scripted, the spokeswoman did acknowledge the producers sometimes help guide dialogue along for clarity: "As there are no confessionals or interviews on The Hills to put the questions in context (as there are in shows such like The Real World), producers sometimes ask the cast members to rephrase to help tell the story clearly." Gavin Beasley had also said that producers set up a barbecue party for the gang, specifically so Brody Jenner and he could meet, thus providing the fodder for an episode that would revolve largely around Jenner growing jealous of Beasley. MTV denied this, saying the cast organized the party."

Lives are not consistently this dramatic without a little prodding.

the show is actually animated

8/15/2008 2:09:11 PM

unscripted animation!

it doesn't really matter if it's scripted or not...but obviously these ppl don't have real jobs AND time to get their hair done AND go shopping for the latest and greatest christian louboutin shoes AND go to school and still have time to party and gossip.

i wouldn't care if i had to read from a frickin' script into a camera for mtv...as long as they gave me free clothes and i had a hair & make-up artist.
