[Vanderpump Rules] Vanderpump Rules The Hills: Lisa Used LC’s Producer

[Ubiquitous]

LOS ANGELES (LALATE EXCLUSIVE) – If “Vanderpump Rules” looks “The Hills”
2.0, there might be a reason. Lisa Vanderpump teamed up with Lauren
Conrad’s former executive producer of “The Hills” to deliver “Vanderpump
Rules” for Bravo, LALATE can report.

Since its debut, “Vanderpump Rules” has been the subject of debate. Did
Bravo perceive the show as an updated version of the hit MTV series “The
Hills” with Lauren Conrad during production, or before filming even
started? Earlier last month, Bravo published a story called “Why
‘Vanderpump Rules’ Is Better Than ‘Hills’”. Bravo added “Anyhoo, rather
than write it, we thought we’d present a visual argument to plead our
case of Vanderpump being a new, improved and steamier version of The
Hills”.

But was Bravo’s similarity to MTV programming accidental? LALATE can
report that, of Pump Rule’s six executive producers, one name stands
out: Bill Langworthy. According to IMBD, Bill Langworthy has no prior
history with Bravo until “Vanderpump Rules”.

Rather, Bill Langworthy has years of credits on MTV series. He served as
executive and supervising producer on “The Hills” from roughly 2007 to
2009. He also has experience with spinoffs. Langworthy was the executive
producer of “The City”, “The Hills” spinoff from 2009 to 2010.

While Bravo has yet to reveal to news when Langworthy was brought into
the production, Bravo has said of Vanderpump Rules “It’s hot. It’s the
Hills 2.0. Stassi Schroeder…the new Kristin Cavallari, but even more
manipulative.” Of course, Cavallari told news once “The Hills” ended
that it was entirely fake.
