REALITY BYTES

As I write this, the production crew for The Hills are down in Mexico filming Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt’s bliss filled honeymoon. We will all get to see every single piece of the elopement and the honeymoon on The Hills, (edited, of course) when real time, catches up with reality TV time, on MTV.

Throughout this season of The Hills, Heidi and Spencer have been fighting for air time. They have demonstrated over and over again, that they can be very willing media stars and mug for the cameras.

Where other “The Hills” stars have wanted to have personal downtime and have been shying away from the media, Heidi and Spencer have been tripping over their lines to get in front of anyone that is holding a camera in their hands.

Saying “Cheese” for the camera, has become a very cheesy art form for Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. These two - joined at the hip - lovebirds of The Hills, can’t seem to get enough exposure!

When Heidi and Spencer go to Taco Bell, the media shows up. When Heidi and Spencer go to the park for a romantic picnic, with floating balloons, wine and lovey-dovey camera mugging; how did the TMZ crew know they would be there?

Consider for a media moment, no one else in the whole wide world knew about Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, shooting down to Mexico to elope, except for certain media sources. Their families and the couple of friends they still might have, didn’t have a clue that they were going to elope; let alone - leave the country.

With no one personally close to this couple, aware that they were getting married; how was it that the entire worldwide media, including The Hills production crew, knew all of the details about their elopement and were present to report it all, as it happened?

Some camera crews arrived at the scene of this media crime, before the intended couple even showed up, then waited for them to arrive!

It’s really kind of sad that both Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt’s only real friends are the people watching their every “media” move. When US Magazine, Access Hollywood, Entertainment Tonight and TMZ become your best friends, what does this have to say? I’m not sure what this answer is supposed to be, but it’s pretty sad when your whole life is nothing more than a media event, coming from The Hills.

Yet, as media stars go, Spencer and Heidi will now come back to the US with offers from all of the talk shows to make appearances, all because of this cheap publicity stunt. This means exposure and more marketable dollars for these two!

Imagine for a moment, a “Hills” spinoff called, “I Love Heidi”. We will get to see episodes of Heidi coming home from work as a LA bandleader. Heidi starts rolling her eyes in exasperation, because Spencer still hasn’t changed the diaper on little Spency Jr. all day. Little Spency is now 4 years old, but still isn’t potty trained.

“Oh, Spencer, Spencer, Spencer! What am I going to do with you?” Heidi exclaims.

Then, we will have to listen to Spencer complain that little Spency needs to get his own apartment, if he can’t figure out where the bathroom is? Will “I Love Heidi” be shot in black and white with a laugh track, so we don’t have too?

Anyway, according to “US Magazine” the honeymoon is still in full swing and MTV is there to get every little detail of it for this season of The Hills. Of course we will also get to see the reactions of this Heidi & Spencer hype, from Lauren and all of the other cast members on this season of The Hills.
