Ah...Kelly Cutrone. She finally made her debut on last night's episode of The Hills. Back in 2006 Cutrone had a few less than fond words about Hills star Lauren Conrad. "That girl was so funny," shared Kelly. "She had to do a very simple task: come backstage at the show and get tickets for her editor. It's not that hard but she had a lot of trouble. She stood around backstage for at least a half hour before she figured out what to do. She didn't really have the sense of how to do things: she wanted stuff to fall on top of her and into her lap. In her position as an intern, she really needed to make things happen." Meanwhile, MTV committed a fashion faux-pas at the show: asking for a front row seat for their star. "I was like, absolutely not," said Kelly. "If she's an intern, she's not going to sit in the front row. I don't care that she's on MTV. She can stand in the back as an intern." That may change next season, when Lauren goes from intern to TV star (and this month's Teen Vogue cover girl). As for her future in the fashion industry, "I don't know how she'll do," says Kelly. "I mean, I wouldn't hire her, but she could grow. Everyone makes mistakes their first time."

Fast forward to 2008, where both Lauren and new People's Revolution hire Whitney Port were seen working for Kelly backstage during New York Fashion Week. Recently Cutrone told Radar: "The thing with Whitney is she's actually very smart and a really talented worker," Cutrone, who runs high-end fashion PR shop People's Revolution, tells Radar. "She just happens to be a six-foot tall knockout blonde. Obviously, there are a lot of stereotypes that go along with being a six-foot tall knockout blonde, but she definitely doesn't conform to them. I love working with her."

Guess Lauren's skills have really blossomed over the past three seasons of The Hills. Or perhaps MTV flashed a hefty paycheck at Ms. Cutrone and she eagerly accepted. Whatever the case, looks like we'll have to keep seeing her unkempt self on our tv screens while watching our favorite guilty pleasure.

Speaking of unattractive PR powerhouses, does anyone else remember Lizzie Grubman's short lived MTV reality show PoweR Girls? If you're in the business of making other people look good and get noticed, why is it so difficult for these women to spend a little time making themselves look good - especially when cameras are around?
