Kristin Cavallari Invites Us Into Her Closet

Kristin Cavallari kinda fell off the map when she started dating her football stud boyfriend, Jay Cutler, but it's not just because she's got love on the brain. Kristin's been busy focusing on her budding career as a reality TV producer and actor; in fact, she recently filmed a scene for ABC's The Middle (it aired last week).

The former Hills star recently swung by The Seven to chat about her upcoming projects and to squash some rumors about her and Jay's relationship. Check out the video where Kristin talks about her whirlwind romance and invites the cameras into her high-fashion closet.

Kristin Cavallari Talks Jay Cutler, The Middle

Kristin Cavallari stopped by Access Hollywood Live on Wednesday and dished to Billy Bush and Kit Hoover about the ghosts of her reality TV past, as well as her current boyfriend, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler.

“Is he the one?” Kit asked Kristin. “I’d like to say yes,” Kristin said with a giggle.

“I love Chicago,” the blonde reality star said of her time in the city. “My mom is there — and that side of my family — so, I get to spend time with my mom who I don’t get to see that often. But it’s been great. I love the city and during the football season I was there a lot. Now, we’re both out here.”

While Kristin is happily in a relationship at present that wasn’t always the case – especially, back when MTV documented her Laguna Beach love triangle with Lauren Conrad and Stephen Colletti.

“What ever happened with Stephen Colletti?” Kit asked. “Do you keep in touch with that cute boy in the pick-up truck?”

“Stephen is acting,” Kristin said. “He’s on One Tree Hill and he’s been working and staying under the radar, which, for him I think, is what he wants. I still talk to Stephanie and Stacie, and that’s about it.”

Kristin also addressed the rumors that The Hills was scripted.

“Laguna Beach was definitely more real than The Hills.” Kristin said. “We only filmed The Hills three days a week, and we did three different scenes each day and a change of clothes to film a specific scene. They were pushing it as far as they could go without an actual script… They give you a schedule like, ‘You have lunch with Heidi at 3:00 to talk about the party coming up,’ or whatever the situation may be.”

She was quick to clear up the misconceptions about The Hills on-air intervention plot-point during which her co-stars expressed concerns that she had a problem with drugs.

“That was really unfair,” Kristin confessed. “That wasn’t MTV, that was one producer in particular that was responsible for that, and of course, after the show aired and that came out, all the girls started talking and telling me what really happened. One producer told the girls what to say and it got as far as bribing one girl with a purse. It was really nasty stuff.”

Kristin has segued from reality to scripted television and appeared last night on The Middle as a biology teacher.

Kristin: Lauren Isn't Trashy Enough For MTV

On both MTV's Laguna Beach and The Hills, Kristin Cavallari was portrayed as Lauren Conrad's arch nemesis. But, to speak to Cavallari today, she would say very little that was portrayed on The Hills resembled her actual life.

"Yeah, in high school," Cavallari tells Zap2it when we asked her about her supposed rivalry with Conrad.

"We're very friendly with each other," she says. "The last time we saw each other was The Hills wrap party. We hung out all night. We're very friendly. I don't have her phone number. I don't call her. But when we see each other, we're very nice."

Cavallari, who will be guest starring on Wednesday's (Feb. 16) episode of The Middle on ABC, says that she was surprised to hear that MTV canceled Conrad's reality show before it even aired. But, while she expressed that she didn't expect that Conrad's show would be killed by the network, she says she can understand why.

"To be honest I think that 'Jersey Shore' is so freakin' hot," she says. "The ratings are unbelievable. And I think that, unfortunately, TV is getting trashier and trashier. Lauren's very sweet and very nice. That's not always that very entertaining."
