Lauren Conrad: The Craziness in My Life is Over

Lauren Conrad starts shooting for her new show which means one thing--expect to see a lot of her!

Lauren's going to be busy doing the promotional rounds, and boy does she have a lot to promote! Between her new reality show, her new book and designing for Kohl's, Lauren has her plate full right now.

She's featured on the new cover of Women's Health magazine where she talks about post-TV life, she spills the beans about her many new projects and how she squeezes in staying in shape. Here are some highlights...

On her post-TV life:

“A lot of the craziness is over. It’s the calm after the storm.”

On balancing her hectic lifestyle:

“When you are working really hard and you’re really focused on your career, a lot of other things suffer. It takes a lot of effort to have a successful career, have great relationships in your life and have a healthy lifestyle. It’s just about compromise.”

On staying grounded:

“One way to stay grounded in the entertainment industry is to surround yourself with very good people that will constantly remind you how uncool you are. It helps that I have an amazing family and I have really great friends that I’ve had since I was a little kid and they’re all still around me, reminding me how lame I am.”

On producing:

“You know, the next thing I’m probably going to do is getting into producing. For me it’s more about finding the time that I really have to dedicate to the beginning stages because I want the first project I do to be something really special.”

On her other upcoming projects:

“Right now, I’m working on putting together my next book series; working on the Kohl’s line…which has taken up a lot of time and has been really, really fun to do.”

On her success as a writer:

“A little bizarre but really cool.”

On taking on a dozen different projects and squeezing in workouts with her beau:

“It helps if your friends and boyfriend like to work out because then you can kill two birds with one stone.”

On her kickboxing sessions:

“Any way to make a workout feel like playtime is great. The stress just melts away.”

Lauren Conrad Dishes on New Reality TV Show

After leaving the hit reality show the Hills, Lauren Conrad spent a lot of her time working on novels like L.A. Candy. Now, the 24-year-old is talking about a new MTV reality show, but this time, it will be on her terms.

“It is reality, it will be more career based so the main focus is my contemporary line, Paper Crown,” Lauren told reporters on Friday night, “But we’re also looking to focus on other projects I have in television, with Kohl’s, the books that I’m writing – so hopefully it will be all the different things that I get to do.”

Lauren says that although nothing is set in stone yet, she is very excited to do a new series.

“I’m very excited, we start filming next month and we’re still trying to get everybody on board so I don’t have a ton of details yet but I’m really looking forward to it,” the author revealed at the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood party (click here for pictures).

LC admits that she agreed to do the new show only if she was able to have more input on the content, as opposed to her days on the Hills.

“It was great because I was allowed to lay down ground rules and say this is what I’m willing to put on camera again and this is what I’m not. Everybody is on the same page so I’m very happy going into it.”

And as for guest stars?

“Lo [Bosworth]’s too busy for me! I have my roommate Maura who is running my clothing line so you’ll be seeing her and a couple other of my friends but it will be more of new faces, ones that hid from cameras before.”

With fresh faces, everyone is wondering if Lauren’s boyfriend and fellow actor Kyle Howard will be making an appearance.

“No,” the starlet tells OK!, but says that, “he’s very supportive.”

Lauren Conrad: New Show In The Works?

Get ready for LC's small-screen comeback!

Although Lauren Conrad left MTV's The Hills back in 2009 and has since become a bestselling author and successful fashion designer, the 24-year-old isn't done with TV.

An insider says in the new Us Weekly, out now, that Conrad is getting her very own reality show -- and that the networks have been fighting over it.

In an exclusive interview with Us, Conrad (who wouldn't confirm the new series) says her third go-round would be miles away from the drama and back-stabbing of Laguna Beach and The Hills.

"The only way I'd return to reality TV would be if it allowed me to decide when the cameras stop," she tells Us.

For more of our exclusive sit-down with Conrad -- how Heidi Montag and other Hills alum are now strangers to her and her happy, low-key life with beau Kyle Howard, her "darker" new book spinoff series -- pick up the new Us Weekly, on stands today!

Lauren Conrad on Life After Reality TV

Lauren Conrad looks as cute as ever on the cover of the new Cosmopolitan wearing a bright pink and red Zac Posen frock.

In the interview, she talks about her new life off camera, her budding fashion line and her boyfriend, actor Kyle Howard. Here are some tidbits from the interview:

On her fashion sense: “"I like to be involved in every step. I may have a little bit of credibility now,” she added, “I don’t think I started with any. You always have to prove yourself.”

On leaving The Hills: “The show started out very aspirational,” she said. “But by the time I left, it was becoming something else, and I knew it was the right time to walk away.”

On what's next: "I have to be passionate about the next thing I do," she said. "I don't think I could ever do a show like The Hills again. I would go crazy."

On her fans: “I haven’t been on TV for awhile,” Conrad said. “But my fans have continued to be amazing. They support my clothes and come to book signings.”

On her boyfriend: "I never critique Kyle's clothes unless he asks my opinion. I have to be with someone I really trust who doesn't want to hurt my feelings and who really wants me to be happy," she added.

On marriage: "The only camera at my wedding will be my parents' camcorder," she said. "It'll be a home video. Just for us."

Lauren Conrad: It's Easy Lovin' Kyle Howard

In an industry where everything is so uncertain, Lauren Conrad says she feels quite lucky to have found love with boyfriend Kyle Howard.

The former “Hills” babe told press that while most of her daily relationships revolve around stress, her romance with Howard is refreshingly simple.

“It’s easy. It’s not work. As a girl, you go through so many relationships, and they’re all so different. This one is not hard!”

“I think you have to think of it more as a process of elimination. You're learning when you’re dating. You’re saying, ‘This guy wasn’t so great, but now I know what I don’t like and I know not to date that kind of guy.’”

So, the two retreated to the corner where they held hands, kissed and cuddled – and continued to do so even when they were joined by a few pals on the couch.

Lauren Conrad: Not A Fan Of Valentine's Day

These days, novelist and former "Hills" star Lauren Conrad may be happy dating actor Kyle Howard, but it seems that she's been burned enough in the past to have some negative feelings about Valentine's Day. So, when asked if she's got any fond memories of the holiday, she simply said she does not.

"I'm not really a Valentine's Day girl. I'm not big on celebrating it. I've never really had an amazing Valentine's Day," she told MTV News while promoting her best-selling novel Sweet Little Lies. "I'm kind of the guy in that way. ... I'm home for the weekend. I don't really do dinner because dinner reservations are hard to get. I just prefer takeout and a movie."

Perhaps Conrad has found that she isn't into Valentine's Day thanks to some crummy experiences with boyfriends in the past. She recently told Seventeen magazine that she's finally gained enough self-confidence to make sure men are treating her properly.

"Oh, I knew back then when I was being cheated on. But I overlooked it. The more confident me has come to the point where I've finally realized it's not something that everyone does," she shared. "And it's not OK to have your guy hook up with someone else. You deserve better."

And it seems she's found something better in current beau Kyle Howard, who loves Conrad for who she is, boyfriend layers and all. "I just ask Kyle, 'You feel like working out?' It's more fun than hitting the gym alone," she said. "We like doing outdoor stuff: tennis, bike riding, kayaking, stand-up surfing, hiking in the canyons around L.A."

Lauren: Life After Reality TV "Less Stressful"

Former reality TV starlet Lauren Conrad said last night that life after the "Hills" has been much more care-free than her days in the searing spotlight.

"It is a lot less stressful," she said during a Miami book signing Wednesday night. "You don't have to worry so much about the way you look or what you're wearing or what you're saying. You can breathe. ... I have time to do a lot of stuff that I couldn't do before."

Conrad offered a glimpse into her life off the small screen during a tween-packed signing at Books & Books last night for her new tome "Sweet Little Lies," a follow-up to New York Times-bestseller "LA Candy," which is loosely based on her life.

But don't expect Conrad to use her books as a way to dish on all the juicy details that went on behind the scenes.

"I think the main difference between my life and the books I write are that I made up people and I made up situations," she said

"I got to have fun with it, and, in a way, tell a similar story as far as things you go through and things you experience and what's it's like -- without spilling other secrets."

Even as other MTV reality shows such as "Jersey Shore" enjoy success, Lauren appears to be enjoying a somewhat low-key life in which she now has time to work on creating a clothing line and spend vacation time with her boyfriend, "My Boys" star Kyle Howard.

But what if MTV conjured up a "Hills" meets "Shore" spin-off?

"No, but I would watch it," she said.
