LAUREN CONRAD - THE HILLS STAR CONRAD BLASTS MAGAZINE

THE HILLS star LAUREN CONRAD has slammed an American magazine for using a fake interview and embarrassing her on the front cover. The reality TV star has accused Us Weekly of pulling together a number of interviews and placing her picture on the front cover with the headline, 'Stabbed in the Back' - referring to her friend and co-star Audrina Patridge. But Conrad is adamant she has not spoken to anyone at the publication. She writes on her blog, "The article itself is a nice one but it follows headlines that, in no way, represent my words or feelings. I do not feel betrayed by Audrina or (Conrad's ex) Brody (Jenner). I love them both and said nothing to contradict this." And a friends tells New York gossip column Page Six Conrad was not happy with the article because she is friends with people at the magazine: "She's very good friends with these people. She goes out to dinner with them, and so does Audrina. So Lauren definitely wasn't happy when she saw this cover."
