Reality television has left the Hollywood Hills for Capitol Hill. A new show, based on MTV’s The Hills, will follow D.C. socialite Katherine Kennedy (pictured above), boutique owner Krista Johnson, and Sophie Pyle, a student on hiatus from UNC.
While the girls are blonde and yes, beautiful…there’s a twist. They call themselves the “Charity Mafia” for their devotion to philanthropy, and Kennedy has a masters degree in business and technology from Georgetown University. This isn’t exactly sounding like The Hills that we all know and love…
But before you assume that the bevy of attractive (and smart?) do-gooders will translate into drama-free television, think again. Producers found the girls on a members-only D.C. social networking site, Late Night Shots, whose members’ partying antics and “trust-fund baby” status have been met with intense dislike by a number of D.C. area denizens.
Although it appears that the show is not lacking in potential Speidis, the producers are having difficulty casting men. Perhaps reality television star on your resume won’t impress when trying to land that coveted internship on The Hills.
While MTV has more than their hands full with L.C. and her crew, the new reality show has landed itself a prime spot: following Project Runway on Lifetime. Is L.C. about to be so last season?
