Lauren Conrad called the lifestyle she was forced to live by the network’s success with Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County “a different way to grow up.” The love triangle between Conrad, Cavallari, and Colletti, as well as the ensuing conflict between Conrad and Cavallari, were prominent themes in the first season.
Conrad made a guest appearance on MTV Cribs after the first season. Conrad temporarily attended the Academy of Art University in San Francisco after finishing high school in 2004, when she met Heidi Montag.
Conrad left the show after the second season and went home before enrolling in the Los Angeles campus of the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, albeit she did not finish her degree.
When her sister Breanna joined the cast as a regular in the third season of the show in 2006, she made a cameo appearance.
Following her 2005 relocation to Los Angeles, Conrad’s life—along with those of her flatmate Montag, next-door neighbor Audrina Patridge, and coworker Whitney Port—was the subject of a spin-off series dubbed The Hills.
Conrad and Port worked as Teen Vogue interns in the inaugural season under the direction of Lisa Love, the West Coast editor of Vogue. Conrad said that regardless of what the cameras wanted, they had to perform well in interviews to get the jobs.
Conrad and Montag’s friendship started to erode by the second season as a result of Montag’s romance with Spencer Pratt.
Why do Lauren and Jason break up?
At the reunion, Lauren said that she was aware that Jason’s addiction to alcohol and drugs—specifically cocaine—was damaging their relationship at the time. She was sorry to break up with Jason, but her sadness was exacerbated by the knowledge that without her, Jason would be abandoned.
