There’s a new, even more detailed trailer for Whitney Port’s Hills spinoff, The City:
When the first promo for The City came out in October, Gabe astutely noted that Whitney Port herself seems to be barely in the show (he also noted that she’s dumb, but I’m not totally on that bandwagon yet.) And this new one, which further delves into the “problems” Whitney encounters while “following” “her” “dreams” in the “real” “New York City,” is conclusive proof that the premise of this show is “Hills cast member is so boring that in order to have a show, we have to surround her with evil, emotionally unstable, occasionally sobbing models.” And the “nest of rattlesnakes” plot they’re forcing on the show just isn’t realistic: LA (the city Whitney already conquered) is a nest of rattlesnakes. Gossip Girl is a nest of rattlesnakes. But unless Whitney really is monumentally Audrina-stupid, she should be able to meet the nice people in New York who came to New York to work hard, which is almost everyone. It’s almost like they did a casting session for good-looking people willing to look ludicrously evil to play the people surrounding perfect Whitney who are “not what they seem.” It’s almost like the show is based on that great movie, The Devil’s Advocate. OMG, it so is! Welcome to Babylon, Whitney Port. Stay away from John Milton Olivia The Social.

yawn, this show was already created 4 years ago and was called “Rich Girls”
I agree that it’s not hard to find nice people in New York, but I think the fashion industry is kind of a snake pit in any city.
The main problem (not the main problem) I have with this show is that none of those people look like they live in NYC. Maybe some of the guys do but the guys are straight from the West Coast. Could they not find any actors in “the City” to portray “real” people?
Plus the Australian guy pisses me off because he seems like an actor (never) portraying someone who is Australian. You can barely understand a word he says, mate.
“a nest of rattlesnakes…”
lol lol lol
Where do I sign up for my own personal Australian tour guide?
its funny to think of new yorkers, as any more nice, hard-working, or “real” than people in LA.
i mean unless you’ve never been to new york or la. then i could see being confused.
It is really going to be hard to make Olivia Palermo interesting. I thought her 15 minutes were already used up on a NY mag piece?
What is her dream? To be surrounded by monsters that (through an admixture of science and magic) can withstand camera light (i.e. they don’t go running back under the nearest bed) while hanging out with an Australian in a Russell Brand costume? Because she’s chasing that like a underfed greyhound with an electric rabbit.
Those two guys are great! They should star in their own show!
Wait…
