Lauren Conrad may be done filming The Hills, but she's not ready to leave TV entirely. She just filmed a guest spot for Family Guy -- playing herself, per usual, except this time it turns out she's a genius! Hey, at least she's not pulling an Audrina and trying to get into acting or pulling a Heidi and releasing crappy singles -- LC knows what she's good at, and she's stickin' to that. There's some credit due there.
Lauren says of her Guy gig, "The idea in the episode is that they make fun of me for being dumb and then discover that I'm actually a genius, and that [Lauren Conrad is] kind of a character I play [on TV], because America likes dumb people."
And how did L.C. handle the challenges of playing a cartoon genius?
She says, "I hired an acting coach just for the day because a lot of the lines later on in the episode are very complicated. I'm talking a lot about history and theorems and conductors, and there's a lot of facts and a lot of big words, and I had to say it as if it was coming to me very easily, so I had to learn the lines ahead of time rather than just reading them. I actually had to research some of them because the acting coach told me that if I really understood what I was talking about, it would come through a little more true."
What do you think, America? Do you like dumb people?
Lauren's episode will air May 3. />

IT'S ALRIGHT, IT'S OK official music video
Because when your boyfriend's cheating on you, the appropriate thing to do is trash his house with your friends and take photos of yourself making out with a random dude and leave them for him to find, because that's going to make him so sad and he'll totally miss you and won't at all think of you as a psychotic bitch who never deserved his loyalty anyway. This is a far better approach than simply walking away with your dignity intact. Great message, Tiz. />IT'S ALRIGHT, IT'S OK official music video

Wait, who won the Miss USA pageant on Sunday night? Oh, right, nobody cares. It was Miss North Carolina, but any attention she may have had as a result of winning has been eclipsed by this Miss California scandal. (BTW, "Miss California" is a great song by Jack's Mannequin, but that's the only context in which I support it these days.)
Carrie "Haterade" Prejean was on the Today Show today, digging her hole even deeper. She admits that her answer cost her the crown (as well it should!) but she stands by her hateful answer, and claims that she had "spoken from my heart, for my beliefs and for my God." She adds that "it's not about being politically correct; for me, it's about being biblically correct."
Miz Prejean, you and I have very different Gods. I hope that one day you can find a faith in something a little less spiteful. />

You may not know her by name, but you know who she is -- the other half (two-thirds?) of the Mini-Me sex tape. Ranae Shrider and I have become friends over the Internets, and this weekend in LA I actually had a chance to meet her. What I found was a person completely different from the crazy hanger-on that's been portrayed in the media. She's funny, charming, smart, independent, open-hearted and all too willing to laugh at herself. I told my girlfriends later, "You guys, she's totally someone we'd hang out with." And it's true! She's a very cool girl who I'm happy to call a friend.
After a yummy lunch, Ranae and I sat down to do some vlogging. I asked her the questions I've always wanted to ask her: What's it like having sex with Mini-Me? How big is he down there? What positions work best? How is it, ya know, enjoyable? Ranae totally dished, and all the goods are in the clip above.
However, we talked about WAY more than Verne -- Ranae's been working as an actress in LA since before she even met him, and she also dished about her current projects, her relationship with Hef's new girlfriends, Ron Jeremy's take on her relationship with Verne, haters on the Internet, and why I need to get laid. You can watch the full-length interview in the clips below.
