For years, since the days of Laguna Beach, Lauren Conrad and Kristin Cavallari were never the best of friends. The two have always been bitter rivals. During Laguna, Lauren always had her eyes on Stephen Colletti. The only problem, Stephen was dating K. Cav. As LC moved on to college, then came back to Laguna in season 2, K. Cav. was now the center of attention. However, Lauren was planning to move to LA, so producers decided to give Lauren her own show, The Hills. And Kristin Cavallari decided she wanted to be an actress, and not do The Hills like producers originally wanted. Since K. Cav. took a different path, fans got to know Lauren Conrad a little better, and were hooked. But now that Kristin Cavallari's coming back on the scene, LC fans are not pleased at all. With some of K. Cav's. fans excited to see her return, a majority of LC fans, or Hills fans for that matter, do not wish to participate in Kristin Cavallari's arrival.
Also, Lauren Conrad gets more media exposure than her bitter rival, Kristin Cavallari it seems only gets media exposure via MTV press. According to this reporter, while Lauren Conrad is welcoming K.Cav. to fill her spot on The Hills, so she can have some privacy, there has to be some hint of resentment from LC's end that her time on The Hills had to end like this. Fans are also displeased that Kristin Cavallari is so willing to trash her predecessor in every way she can, by bringing up old issues from the past. K. Cav. also stresses that she's on The Hills to do three things only, party, drink, and fight. While K. Cav's intentions don't say much about her career aspirations, it does say a lot about how she intends to upset Lauren Conrad fans, and Hills fans every way she can.
