New York Goes to Hollywood must be the most scripted reality show on television.

No offense, The Hills.

This week, Tiffany Pollard pretends to have drama with Tailor Made, goes on a date with another man and - shocker! - is on the way home with that man, unknowing that Tailor has dropped in to her house to surprise her.

What will happen? How will producers write the ending to this mess? We'll have to tune in next week and find out!

Meanwhile, you can read about what else happened on New York Goes to Hollywood last night, thanks to our handy episode guide!

Having held the world record in the 100-meter dash years ago, Maurice Greene was considered the fastest man alive.

This season on Dancing with the Stars, we'll find out if speed kills his chances... or dooms his opponents. Greene's partner will be Cheryl Burke.

"I told Cheryl I hope I don't make you mad by calling you up in the middle of the night and saying, 'Let's go work out!' Green said. "I've already texted her twice before and she says, 'You're crazy! Take your time.'"

Why will Danny "G.C." Brown win Survivor: Gabon this season?

According to the contestant himself, it's because Danny needs the cash prize more than anyone else out there.

What does Jeff Probst think of Brown's chances?

''G.C. is a fish out of water. Does he have the fortitude to really do this? Because when I talked to him before the show, it seemed like a lot of nervous energy masquerading as confidence. But it was, really, I felt, fear, like 'What am I getting into?' And that's not a good place to be because what you're getting into is a big ol' headache.''

Dennis Rodman won't be the only athlete in Donald Trump's boardroom this fall.

Professional golfer Natalie Gulbis will reportedl be a contestant on the second season of The Celebrity Apprentice. Gulbis has earned over $3.6 million since finishing second in LPGA Rookie of the Year points in 2002. 

She's actually starred in her own reality show for the golf channel, aptly named The Natalie Gulbis Show. She's really, really cute.

Safe to say, we're not gonna watch the second season of Celebrity Apprentice.

Jennifer Lopez is more than just Jenny from the Block.

She's set tobe a guest judge on the season five finale of Project Runway.

Nina Garcia essentially confirmed the news, saying this year's finale "is going to be unbelievable" and adding:

"The guest star is one of the most iconic women around. It’s going to take the cake."

Judge Michael Kors told the latest issue of Elle that J. Lo could be a fashion editor.

“She is curious about what’s new and what’s next,” he said, “but at the same time she knows how to edit perfectly for her look and lifestyle.”

On the heels of Sunday night's special episode of The Hills, "Boys Make Girls Cry," we get another new episode last night.

Monday's episode began with people desperate to find out how the heck Doug Reinhardt and Brody Jenner ended up in jail.

The morning after the big bash, Lauren Conrad, Stephanie Pratt, and Lo Bosworth try to track down the boys.

When they finally do, the boys laugh it off. They are so tough. The girls are far from pleased and call them idiots.

Meanwhile, Lauren and Audrina Patridge finally decide to hash things out. Will they be successful and save the friendship?

Find out in our recap of "Something Has to Change."

We heart VH1.

Instead of running reality shows that the network tries to deem at all "real," the network is banking on its series of skanks to continually make fools of themselves for money and fame.

Next up? Rock of Love Girls: Charm School!

The series will premiere on October 12 and will feature Sharon Osbourne as host. Here's a look at a few of the contestants, led by reality TV stalwary Heather Chadwell:

The Hills may be about to spawn - on the East Coast!

According to the New York Post, an upcoming pilot of a rumored spinoff called The City were shot at the Meatpacking District eatery Nero.

"The central character will be artist Jay Lyon, who has been featured in an episode of The Hills with Whitney Port," a source said.

"When they worked together, they hit it off and started dating."

During the shoot, MTV cameras captured the cross-country lovebirds having an intimate dinner and sharing an earnest conversation.

Here's hoping this is true - for fans of The Hills, as well as for Whitney Port, who we've always loved and wished to learn more about!

Karina Smirnoff is no fool.

She knows how good looking partner Rocco DiSpirito is, and she has every intention of exploiting that fact to her advantage of Dancing with the Stars this season.

“He’s very handsome,” Smirnoff told People Magazine last week. “A lot of women kept telling me, ‘Oh, my god, you have a hottie! You got a hottie this season!’ So I’m sure we’re going to try to play off the handsomeness of Rocco.”

How far do you think Karina Smirnoff and Rocca DiSpirito will advance this season?

As for other strategy, Smirnoff said Rocco simply has to relax.

“I think he’s a lot of fun when we like just hang out or talk, but when he’s actually in the studio, motivated and determined to do well, he gets very tight,” she said, “so I need him to let go of all inhibitions and just go for it.”

Now Tony Dovolani can truly focus on this season of Dancing with the Stars.

The upcoming partner of All My Children star Susan Lucci and wife Lina welcomed twins into the world early this morning.

Son Adrian Driton Dovolani popped out at 3:14 a.m., weighing 7 lbs; daughter Adriana Dovolani arrived 14 minutes later, weighing 7 lbs., 10 oz.

"We are so happy, I can't stop smiling," Dovolani told People. "Lina was such a champ, and she looks incredible right now."
