I've managed to stumble across something more irritating than Paris Hilton - it could only be The Hills. Those sleuths at TMZ have sourced the cast's pay packet. But first, the good news: there's talk of it not being recommisioned next series because "no one gets along anymore. Whitney moved to New York, Audrina can't stand to be in the same room as Lauren anymore and they all want more money." This is quite possibly why Lauren (the beige one) and Heidi (blonde one with the fake funbags) have suddenly started talking again. Funbags and the Pratt "bumped" into Beige Features in a hotel, where the latter was "celebrating the success of her runway show at Los Angeles Fashion Week. (Heidi) Montag asked Conrad's minders if she could congratulate her former friend on her new designs and the two women embraced."

Lauren Conrad has multiple minders? Even Mel B doesn't have minders even though she's verbally abused in airports?! Then again, Mel B doesn't earn $75k every time a cameras put on her (and has to renew her wedding vows in order to stump up some cash). Yep - Lauren Conrad gets paid $75k per episode of The Hills. She gets paid $75 to walk silently down corridors, make moo eyes at Brody and pull faux expressions of concern when in the presence of people like Whitney.

The list goes thusly: Lauren is on $75k (I might've mentioned that already). Heidi and Spencer are both (of course) on $65k per episode. Audrina is on $35k (no wonder she hates everyone) and Brody is only making $10k. Now there's the incentive he needs to get with Lauren...
