Career

=2005–2010: ''The Hills'' and ''Dancing with the Stars''=

It originally chronicled the lives of Lauren Conrad, who appeared on its predecessor, her housemate Heidi Montag, and friends Whitney Port and Patridge.{{Cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/31/arts/television/31heff.html?_r=1&oref=slogin|title='The Hills,' a Follow-Up to 'Laguna Beach,' Makes Its Premiere on MTV|author= Virginia Heffernan|work=The New York Times|date=May 31, 2006|access-date=May 10, 2013}} During production of the first season, producers cast her in a position with Quixote Studios. The following season, Patridge was cast with Epic Records. Later in the season, Montag ended her friendship with Patridge, though the women later reconciled. After Montag moved in with Spencer Pratt, Patridge and Lo Bosworth later became roommates with Conrad.{{cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/shows/the_hills/season_2/episode.jhtml?episodeID=117758|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091212113807/http://www.mtv.com/shows/the_hills/season_2/episode.jhtml?episodeID=117758|url-status=dead|archive-date=December 12, 2009|title=The Hills (Season 2) Ep. 212: Goodbye For Now|publisher=MTV.
