Fashion entrepreneur and ex-reality TV star Lauren Conrad makes Lucky Magazine’s July issue. The style maven and business woman knows fashion, having worked as an intern at Teen Vogue to now launching her new clothing line ‘Paper Crown.‘ Now that “the Hills” days are over Lauren is focusing her time on writing more novels, working on a feature film and promoting her new clothing line. Here is what the 25 year old fashionista had to say about MTV’s reality shows, health and fashion.
On launching her new line, Paper Crown, without the help of MTV: “It’s easier to launch the line without MTV. A lot of people in fashion don’t want to be linked with anything that has to do with reality TV. Showrooms were turning us down.”
On why MTV deemed her show too “highbrow”: “It didn’t feel like a perfect fit. It’s difficult to compete with all the Jersey Shore -type shows out there. Besides, there weren’t any scenes of me getting drunk or fighting, so what’s the point?”
On why she hates the gym: “I’m just not a fan of the gym. In fact, I hate it. I understand loving the feeling you get after working out – all those endorphins. But going there? It’s the worst.”
On how her eating habits have changed: “I’m now focusing a lot more on my health. I no longer eat pork, I rarely eat beef, and I don’t like chicken now because my mother keeps four hens as pets. I’m not kidding.”
