Lauren Conrad dishes on her new MTV reality show

Lauren Conrad has opened up about her new MTV reality show! “It’s more career-based, about my life and fashion. I wanted my own personal life,” the former Hills star told In Touch Weekly magazine.

“I’m excited to have greater control over things. I’m just happy to act as a producer and do things on my terms.”

Conrad recently revealed she loves her friends to constantly tell her she’s “uncool”.

“One way to stay grounded in the entertainment industry is to surround yourself with very good people that will constantly remind you how uncool you are,” she told Women’s Health magazine.

“It helps that I have an amazing family and I have really great friends that I’ve had since I was a little kid and they’re all still around me, reminding me how lame I am.”

Lauren also says she has to make a lot of compromises in her life in order to get the correct balance between work and play.

“When you are working really hard and you’re really focused on your career, a lot of other things suffer,” she said. “It takes a lot of effort to have a successful career, have great relationships in your life and have a healthy lifestyle. It’s just about compromise.

“It helps if your friends and boyfriend like to work out because then you can kill two birds with one stone.”
