The truth is slowly unraveling and could prove damaging to other reality shows.

Page Six reiterated today previous reports that "The Hills" is nothing more than a staged production that includes reenactments, scheduled run-ins, and orchestrated love interests. The most recent report of fraud suggests that Lauren’s boy toy in Paris (episodes yet to be aired) was hand selected by the shows producers. This allegation is nothing more than a bullet point added to the laundry list of previously noted editing mishaps caught by celebrity obsessed watchdogs.

The intense coverage and scrutiny of the show has even forced The Hills' main character to come clean. In a recent Q&A session with Entertainment Weekly, Conrad admitted to doing re-shoots of incidences that occurred while the cameras weren’t rolling. She said:

“I went home and called someone [Brody], and the next day talked about it. [MTV] was like, Okay, well, we need to get that on tape, and since they're trying to tell a story the right way, I basically had to go and call [Brody] again, have the exact same conversation on camera”.

Most watching reality shows know that they are fake – audiences simply don’t want to be reminded of it. Pointing out the fraud behind the show takes away the glamour of the characters and the excitement of the storylines.

If reality shows were anything close to our own reality, wouldn’t we all be disinterested?

At least the Apollo moon landings and 9/11 weren't staged, so we still have that reality to latch onto, that's a relief.

I wonder how many people think that pro wrestling is real. What percentage of women's orgasms are fake? What percentage of men are fake when they say "I love only you" ?

Of course the real bombshell will be if God stops by for a visit, and tells us that this whole darn universe is fake, it's just some computer simulation like in The Matrix. But then what if that is simply another level of deception and it goes on forever, so you never have any hope of getting past the layers of deception.

And what if God was deceived and someone created him for the latest episode in their reality show?

Re: The Hills Is Fake? Get Out!

The Hills has long been my guilty pleasure- but I've always known it's incredibly fake. It doesn't bother me in the slightest, and I'm still going to be a big fan of the show.

I love the catty drama, real or fake.
