Millions have watched Audrina Partridge befriend, and do battle with, the dynamic duo of Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth on MTV's The Hills.

Now, the 23-year-old aspiring model-actress is reportedly preparing to face down another twosome even more troublesome than the Laurens.

Audrina Patridge has joined the cast of Sorority Row, a soon-to-be-filmed remake of the 1983 cult classic flick The House on Sorority Row.

Audrina Patridge's boobs are also starring in Into the Blue 2.

The Hills co-star joins previously-announced leads Briana Evigan (Step Up 2: The Streets) and Rumer Willis (The House Bunny) for the film.

The film’s official plot synopsis reads as follows:

“When five sorority girls inadvertently cause the murder of one of their sisters in a prank gone wrong, they agree to keep the matter to themselves and never speak of it again, so they can get on with their lives. This proves easier said than done, when after graduation a mysterious killer goes after the five of them and anyone who knows their secret.”

Sounds almost as bloodthirsty as The Hills girls!

Hugh Hefner knows a thing or two about multiples.

So it's worth noting that the Playboy founder doesn't merely believe that The Girls Next Door star Kendra Wilkinson is getting a spinoff; he thinks all three of his main girlfriends will soon have their own series..

"I think all three girls are likely to get spinoffs. I think they will be interconnected to the main show, and we will all appear on both," Hefner told E!

Which Girl Next Door would you most wanna see in her own spinoff?

For now, however, the popular bedroom buddy and his gal pals have other things to think about, such as the October 5 premiere of season five of The Girls Next Door.

"It's amazing. We're about to launch season five," he said, adding, "We thought it would be a one-season wonder."

As a hairdresser and part-time teacher, it's safe to assume Susie Smith will see her net worth increase tremendously if she conquers all on Survivor: Gabon.

Does host Jeff Probst give this 47-year old mom from Iowa a chance of accomplishing that feat?

''Susie is a mom, and she likes to talk. That's definitely her biggest obstacle to overcome, that she can't shut up. If I went in and played this game and got teamed up with Susie, I would be wary of her hanging in there with me, because she seems to go with the wind and doesn't even seem like she's paying attention at times.''

We didn't see this picture coming.

Meet Chet. He's the the token religious cast member in the upcoming season of The Real World: Brooklyn. Dude is reportedly an engaged virgin Mormon... but he's spotted here smooching America's Next Top Model winner Whitney Thompson.

Nice to see them getting along so well.

Tonight's episode of America's Next Top Model is always a fan favorite.

How will each contestant look after a complete makeover? And is there any chance Tyra Banks can be made over from self-serving annoyance to competent, caring judge?

We won't hold our breath.

Here are two clips from tonight's America's Next Top Model:

After a summer of lying, hooking up, backstabbing, double-crossing, whining and calling each other Judas, a Big Brother winner has been crowned.

Dan Gheesling, the Catholic school teacher from Michigan, was chosen as this season's champ and winner of $500,000 in a 7-0 vote by the jury.

The evicted house guests loved Dan almost as much as the show's fans, who chose Gheesling as America's Player midway through the season.

He was also at the top of our weekly Power Rankings every week. Not that this makes us cool or anything. We're just having a conversation.

Dan made the final two beside his "Renegade" alliance partner, known to us as Memphis Garrett, who took home $50,000 for coming in second.

Memphis really had no shot against Dan Gheesling, who played Big Brother 10 so perfectly, but he deserves props for scratching and clawing his way into the finals despite playing much of the season with a bulls eye on his back.

Also, Keesha Smith, a Final Four house guest and former alliance member of Dan and Memphis, earned $25,000 as America's Favorite Juror!

We came across a couple of clips of Justin Gaston - the former Nashville Star aspirant and current (we think) Miley Cyrus boyfriend du jour.

Here's him singing "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" and "Hey There Delilah" on the reality series. He's actually not all that super terrible ...

CONSOLATION PRIZE: Before he was on top of Miley Cyrus, Justin Gaston aspired to be on top of the country charts. Unfortch, it was not to be.

In a new interview, one of our favorite reality TV rejects, Brandi Cunningham, opens up about her I Love Money elimination, being double-crossed by Toastee Toof and Pumkin, what happened during Real’s proposal to Hoopz, the nature of her relationship with Megan Hauserman, and more ...

Q: Why were you so upset as your final episode went on? Were you just wasted or what?

Brandi Cunningham: No! I don’t think you guys can see how crazy it was that day. Even the food fight doesn’t look as intense as it was being in it. After I realized Hoopz was Paymaster, I had a feeling I’d be targeted just because I would be the easiest person to get rid of without pissing anyone else off. But Pumkin and Toastee turned on [Megan Hauserman] and me that day. We were doomed. After being their for a month and fight for a month to stay, all this s**t went to hell in 30 seconds. It was so intense and shocking.

Cheer up, I Love Money fans. She may have been booted off the best reality TV show ever, but you can still see Brandi Cunningham nude.

Q: Wasn’t it going to get to the point where you and Megan had to turn on Pumkin and Toastee anyway?

If any of the reality TV hosts set to take the stage for this weekend's Emmy Awards is nervous, none show it.

TV Guide recently talked with those in charge of shows such as American Idol and Dancing with the Stars to gauge their takes on the upcoming gig.

TV Guide: What makes you most qualified to be an Emmy host?
Ryan Seacrest: The fact that I’m unqualified.
Heidi Klum: I don’t necessarily see myself as being the most qualified, but I have to say it is an honor to be recognized, especially in the company of so many great hosts. I think, collectively, we make a good team of Emmy hosts, no?
Jeff Probst: Absolutely nothing. I was as shocked as anybody. I think all of us sense there’s a certain bit of skepticism — like, really? I think it’s important to establish early that we’re in on the joke — that we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
Tom Bergeron: The fact that I said yes when they asked me. Although I’ve heard rumors that they’re now thinking of Michael Phelps.
Howie Mandel: Probably my singing and dancing skills. And no, I will not be utilizing them. I promise not to utilize them, and that’s what most qualifies me.

TV Guide: If you won an Emmy, whom would you thank?
Ryan: Simon.
Heidi: I would be so excited. But the show is obviously a real team effort, so I would be speaking on behalf of our whole Runway family.
Jeff: My speech begins with my kindergarten teacher and concludes with the universe, which is my god —and I don’t care if the band starts playing. I’ll keep talking because I’m a host. And if I lose, I will tackle Seacrest, and I will take that Emmy one way or another.
Tom: I think I’d go the purely egotistical route and just get there and say, “None of you slobs had anything to do with this.”
Howie: Ikea, for the shelving. No, I would have to thank everybody at Deal or No Deal because they created this possibility of a win — which is not going to happen, by the way, so I don’t have to think about this.

If the members of 'N Sync are to be believed, Lacey Schimmer has a lot of work in front of her.

The new Dancing with the Stars professional is teamed up with Lance Bass, and he recently told People Magazine that his former band mates used to mock his moves all the time.

"The guys always told me how terrible of a dancer I am," said Bass. "So I kind of just wanted to prove to myself that I could learn something crazy."

Seriously, how bad of a dancer could Bass have been? Wasn't moving and grooving the man reason 'N Sync was so popular for so long?

Dancing with the Stars contestants such as Kim Kardashian, who has more experience in the bedroom than the dance floor, are at more of a disadvantage than Lance Bass.
