Lauren LC Conrad‘s final ep of The Hills hasn’t even aired yet and already MTV has started production on the next season of the show, the first without LC as the star protagonist. You may recall that Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County alum Kristin Cavallari has been tapped to take over LC‘s starring position on the show and it looks like they’re already putting the new “It” girl to work. Here are a few pics from the SoCal set of The Hills yesterday evening:

Wooot!!! It is no secret that I am BIG Kristin Cavallari fan from waaaaaay back in the day. I have grown so disillusioned with The Hills in the past couple of seasons but am THRILLED that KC is taking over. I will watch every single ep. I just love that girl!! As I understand it, KC and the cast (which included Brody Jenner, Jayde Nicole, Lauren Lo Bosworth, Stephanie Pratt and Stacey the bartender that “almost broke up Speidi“) got together at a Mexican restaurant for Frankie‘s birthday (Kristin brought him a bottle of Patron tequila as her gift). The season finale ep of The Hills (LC‘s last) airs this Sunday night on MTV … that’s when KC will officially be introduced on the show. When she arrives at the Speidi wedding, the party gets under way:

I can’t wait!!!!!! With KC starring, I say Long Live The Hills!!! LC may be dunzo but Kristin‘s time to shine is just about to begin :)

Trent–
Do you not remember how mean KC was? I used to like her and hate LC until I watched reruns and I had it backwards!
She’s so controlling, manipulative, and narcissistic on the show, I don’t know how she is in real life of course but on the show she’s a jerk!
I am so excited to have kristin on the show. Lauren is a sweet girl but she is so BORING. Anyone that says LC is more interesting than Kristin is out of their minds. Plus Kristin is GORGEOUS.
Hmm I might have to start watching again to see how this new drama all plays out. I hate to admit that the buzz about the show is luring me in again lol.. on another note it would be worth watching if Stephanie got the boot!! She just seems annoying as hell.
I had never watched the Hills until a few days ago when I watched a couple on InDemand and I have to say…is Lauren always so BORING? She kind of seems like the most normal one on there but…it doesn’t make for great entertainment!
So Kristin doesn’t have anything else going for her and She has to hope on LC’s bandwagon. She’s pathetic and annoying.
TEAM LC!
I meant hop
Her presence will make for excellent TV, but I doubt it will help her acting career like she thinks it will. The more an audience sees her and knows her life story, the less likely they are to believe she’s the character in a movie. But, as a character on The Hills, I say bring it! No one can stir up trouble the way Kristin can.
to Susan… I couldn’t agree more, the same thing happened to me.
I never like KC just cause she has the evil look in her. I mean jsut like it happen on Laguna Beach when LC left, KC was the next up and now that The Hills will not have LC anymore of course they move in KC. KC will always be a rebound girl next to LC when it comes to this show…. And whats this shit I see with Stacy being in the mix now….didn’t like the bitch and still don’t like the bitch…but I know im still going to be watching LOL!
Stilllllll don’t like her. She’s so used up. I used to be an LC fan, but really can’t stand her anymore. Atleast LC still brings all the boys to the yard….KC, not so much. Bitch is stanky leggin’ it.
omg am i the only person that cant stand kristen??? she is so annoying. her voice is like nails on a chalkboard. she’s always showing up to try to take over a show once lauren leaves…sloppy seconds if you ask me. once this season is over i’m so done with the show. DONE!
and WTF is stacey the bartender still doing hanging around??? so stupid.
FAIL! Trent, dude, man, you do realize that if LC never left the show then Kristen would still be… somewhere in Hollywood doing nothing, right? I don’t understand how you can think she is “taking over the hills” like an army taking over a country. If LC never left then Kristen would still be some washed-up person. This show really isn’t going to last much longer and WTF is up with her face??? Has she had work done? She looks extremely old – ew. And yes, Kristen is a major beyotch but not a fun one. She was always so mean spirited and she had a degree in backstabbing and you better believe she received all A’s in the process of doing so baybeee
@CHASE — me-yow! sorry dude, Team Kristin rules!!
A. I can’t stand Kristin.
B. Does she plop herself down next to Justin Bobby in that clip?
Ugh,don’t like her at all.
Yeah, Kristin is a bitch, but I still love her. She’s so upfront about it :):)
Lauren is boring!!! Cute, friendly, but boring. And she has a touch of self-righteousness that got really annoying after a while.
Kristin is just what The Hills needed: someone hot and spicy!
So pleased KC is joining show…LC is boring and if she was a nice enough person, she would not have issues with every friend possible…even tho that is probably just made up just like everything else. KC will hopefully bring a spark to the show and LC needs to goooooooooooooooooooo….(oooh thats right, she is! Yeah!!).
Two words for Kristin—SLOPPY SECONDS!!!
Kristin and Brody were pretty serious a couple of years ago!!! Can’t wait for the DRAMA!!!
TRENT!! i just pics of brody and Kristin lunching by themselves!! oh i wish theyd get back together, they were together for almost 2 yearson and off!!
haha i love this girl too trent!!! she was always tru to her self, alot of ppl saw it bitchy but i actually saw her being honest!!
cant wait to see wat she will do!! apparantly seh and audrina had a fight at audrina’s pool party!! heidi and jayde was twitting about how kristin just made the show ever!!
Ok so is Kristin always there to have LC’s sloppy seconds. I know not men (K had B first) But in the show. First LB now TH? Really ugh i can’t stand her. She really needs to get her OWN show. Oh thats right she did… and it got cut right away… lol
