"The Hills" Season Six & "The Audrina Show"

It’s official: Audrina Patridge will appear in the 6th season of The Hills. Despite reports, Audrina Patridge will not be leaving the MTV reality show after its fifth season! Along with Kristin Cavallari, Justin Brescia, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, Audrina and the cast will be gracing our television screens for the sixth season of “The Hills”. Filming of new episodes will start early next year.

However, Audrina will be taking under two reality TV Shows simultaneously. In addition to the “The Hills”, her new spin off with Mark Burnett Productions will begin filming as soon as next week. Audrina will be put to the challenge to handle both series. It will be interesting to see as the two reality plots may occasionally overlap. The unnamed show will trail both her personal and professional lives. The show claims to be “spicier, edgier, older” and will focus on “new love” and “romances.” Yet, she says “It’s also [about] how I stay grounded with my family.” “It’s really about me and my family and everything that you see in the press and just really opening up,” she told Elle magazine backstage last week at the after-show for “The Hills” finale. “It’s going to be cameras following me, not set up. No lighting. It’s going to be, like, totally different.”

Get ready, Hills fans! It's almost here. MTV has officially announced that The Hills season 5 will premiere Tuesday September 29 at 10 p.m.

Most of our favorites will be returning--Lo, Audrina, and of course Spencer and Heidi--sans Lauren Conrad, who announced she was leaving the show back in April.

Hills star Audrina Patridge announced back in June that she would be starring in her own reality show--tentatively titled The Audrina Show. MTV is scheduled to air five bonus episodes of The Hills in the fall, which will serve as a launching pad for her new show. Patridge says the program will showcase the "other side" of her life.
