From reality television star, to fashion icon, to chic and sophisticated business woman, Lauren Conrad is definitely going places. LC is all set to launch her fifth literary work of fiction, The Fame Game. The First book in her new series will be featuring new characters mingled with the characters from the previous series, depicting their struggle in the show business.

Lauren, whose MySpace playlist featured musican John Mayer amongst others is going to begin her book tour this spring and is going to visit various cities for the book signing. So for all those Glamorous Book worms, be sure to get it signed by the Diva Novelist!

Heidi Montag wants her old BFF back.

The Hills star — who filed for divorce from hubby Spencer Pratt last Friday — was in a nostalgic mood on Wednesday.

“Watching old Hills [episodes],” Montag, 23, Tweeted. “I miss you @AudrinaPatridge and most of all @laurenconrad.”

Neither Audrina Patridge nor Lauren Conrad responded to Montag’s plaintive Tweets.

Former roommates and best friends, Montag and Conrad famously ended their friendship over Montag’s boyfriend-turned husband Pratt; among other things, Conrad accused the couple of leaking a false rumor about a sex tape. When Montag attempted to mend the friendship, Conrad brushed her off on camera, quipping, “I want to forgive you — and forget you.”

Still, Conrad — and Patridge — did attend the couple’s April 2009 wedding.

Citing irreconcilable differences, Montag filed for divorce from Pratt, 26, in a Santa Monica, Calif.

Spencer’s explanation? “Well, some say if you can’t handle the heat get out of the kitchen. Heidi couldn’t handle King Spencer’s fame so she got out of the marriage,” Pratt told UsMagazine.com of his wife’s momentous decision.

Lauren Conrad is keeping busy. Super busy. Not only is she releasing her next ‘L.A. Candy’ novel, ‘Sugar and Spice,’ on the same day as her book ‘Lauren Conrad Style,’ she’s also starting a brand-new clothing line.

While LC already has a popular line for Kohl’s, she’s teaming up with some of her best friends on a whole new collection. “It’s a contemporary women’s line,” she tells People. “Where Kohl’s is a lot of daywear, it’s a lot of basics. This will be more specialty basics, more of a boutique line. It will be at a higher price point. It will be very different.”

Although the 24-year-old has had amazing opportunities with the chain retailer, she says “there is a little more of a thrill of doing it on your own.” The collection doesn’t have a name just yet, and we’re still waiting to hear who Lauren is collaborating with on the new project.

In the meantime, get a sneak peek at the cover photo shoot for Lauren’s new style book in this behind-the-scenes video after the jump. Doesn’t she look amazing? What kind of fashion tips have you borrowed from the former ‘Hills’ star?

We can only be talking about Lauren Conrad who, throughout The Hills and every red carpet event since, has displayed a seriously chic sense of style. So who better than she to release her very own style guide?

Her book, Style, is designed to give you advice on what to wear for any occasion, as well as a few fashion anecdotes from the lady herself and some never-before-seen photographs that show some of her shining moments, and some of her biggest fashion faux-pas. Eek! You’ll also get an exclusive peek into her wardrobe, which is reason enough to be wanting this book.

The book comes out in October, but to keep us entertained until then, Lauren has released a behind the scenes video for the book shoot.

She looks like she’s enjoying the photo shoot in the exact same way we would; dancing around to the music, pulling funny faces and twirling around in the dresses!

Lauren Conrad quickly emerged as the girl next door on MTV’s “Laguna Beach” when it premiered in 2007. She was nice enough that girls liked her and cute enough that guys wanted to date her. And once she left home for “The Hills,” Conrad quickly became a shining star on the hit reality-TV series spin-off, letting fans watch her fall in and out of love for five seasons. We also saw LC try her hand at a fashion career and navigate some of the most memorable friendships ever captured on television.

So when Lauren left “The Hills” last year to pursue other interests, many wondered whether LC could live up to high expectations and match the success she’d enjoyed as a “Hills” castmember. But LC more than lived up to the hype, proving she could become a powerhouse mogul.

Shortly after leaving “The Hills,” the first of Conrad’s three novels, “L.A. Candy,” was released and skyrocketed to the top of The New York Times best-seller list. Conrad explained at the time that while the book might seem very much like nonfiction, it was purely a work of her imagination.

“I didn’t take anything specifically that happened to me. The only thing that I did was … it was a way to show not necessarily me, but just the other side of being on a show like ours,” Conrad told MTV News. “For everyone that’s done it, I think you see one side and you don’t see the other. It’s kind of an interesting story to tell.”

As if that wasn’t enough, the follow-up to “L.A. Candy,” “Sweet Little Lies,” also topped the NYT best-seller list, and word soon came that both titles, plus the third in Conrad’s series — “Sugar and Spice,” set to be released later this year — “would be made into a film to be produced by the same brains behind “Twilight.” It was a prospect that LC embraced with open arms, excited about the chance to tell the story of what it’s really like in Hollywood.

“I told them one thing I wanted to capture was that moment when you’re inside a swarm of 20 paparazzi and you can’t move and you don’t know what to do and it’s terrifying,” she said. “And I don’t think anyone’s ever illustrated that before.”

When she wasn’t busy writing novels, LC also managed to design a clothing line, LC Lauren Conrad, exclusively for Kohl’s.

“It’s very much a California brand,” Conrad told us in March. “It’s all about incorporating new trends and putting our own twist on it — relaxed cool without trying too hard,” she explained about the line.

And how does she manage to do it all? “It’s all about fitting it into your schedule,” she shared. “I don’t sleep much.”

Fans will certainly be tuning in to MTV on Tuesday, when LC returns for a final farewell and reunites with her “Hills” pals on the live aftershow, following the series finale of “The Hills.”

How awesome is that going to be?

Show creator Adam DiVello teased, “It will be a big party.”

Lauren Conrad, ex-cast member of ‘Laguna Beach’ and ‘The Hills’ drops by ‘Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List’ (Tue., 10PM ET on BRVO) to help Kathy Griffin’s mother Maggie pick fabric for some moo-moos. But what starts as an innocent favor becomes, for Kathy, some petty drama perfect for a scene from the comedienne’s “The Hills Adjacent.”

Maggie and Lauren really hit it off, and Kathy gets jealous. When she suggests they all go to lunch, Maggie and Lauren have already made plans together — and Lauren’s car is only a “two-seater.”

Later, in an interview on the “show,” Kathy feigns hurt feelings: “I just feel like my mom doesn’t get me. I just feel like LC brings so much drama … Turns out that I’m Stephanie Pratt, and my mother is Audrina. So unfair.”

We are working on the gallery very hard at the moment! We have already added lots of photoshoots, and all The Hills cast photos to the gallery. Please check back soon for lots of more pictures!

Lauren blogged: This Tuesday I make an appearance on “My Life on the D List” at 10pm on Bravo. I have always been a huge Kathy Griffin fan so when they asked if I’d like to be on the show I said yes immediately. Can’t give anything away but I got to spend a few hours with her and her mother (who I loved!). They were both so much fun and I’m excited to see how it turned out.
Let me know what you guys think…
