The Big Picture
- Lauren Conrad's fashion internship on The Hills was scripted and dramatized, but it still delivered a memorable moment when she was scolded by her boss for choosing her boyfriend over a Paris internship.
- Lisa Love, the director of Teen Vogue LA, played a similar role to Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada. While she wasn't as cutthroat, Lisa was firm and called out her interns for inappropriate behavior.
- Whitney Port, Lauren's coworker and friend on The Hills, was a supportive counterpart to Emily Charlton in the movie. Whitney proved to be a good friend and they would cover for each other when working late. Both shows share similarities and intertwine the Paris storyline.
