AceShowbiz - Retreating from "The Hills", Lauren Conrad is looking forward to another foray into television. And one source that she may pick as a material is her own fiction novel, "L.A. Candy". "It's one of my hopes," Conrad told E! about her wish to get the novel being adapted.
In fact, the 23-year-old would like to jump into the project right after promoting the book which is launched this month and published via Harper. She said, "We're going to start working on that when I get back from my book tour."
"L.A. Candy" is a young adult novel that follows Jane Roberts, a beautiful young woman with sweet nature who moves to L.A. with her gorgeous childhood pal Scarlett. Jane has the ambition to be an event planner but once in the big city she is offered to star in a reality TV series.
With a fashion line already running and a book already in stores, Conrad is also thinking about a new reality TV series. When the camera stopped rolling at the end of "The Hills" season 5, she refused to hear any offers, but is now having second thoughts. "I actually asked not to hear them," she said. "I said, 'Don't tell me anything.' So problem solved, and I got to enjoy some time away. But my two months is up now."
The fifth season of "The Hills" marked the end of her stint on the MTV reality series. On the finale she attended the wedding of Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt before leaving the church alone and quietly. Kristin Cavallari, her former rival on "Laguna Beach", will take over as the center of the show, but Conrad admitted that she won't be a fan. "I probably won't watch it," she said. "I'm not a huge TV person."
