Us Weekly continues its quest to make Crested Butte’s Heidi Montag the IT girl. “The Hills” headliner is on the cover this week in a story titled “I Was Betrayed By Spencer.”
Spencer Pratt is her creepy boyfriend — who visited Crested Butte with her last summer.
Yes people, the wedding is off, she wants him to move out, he’s getting digits from other dames.
You can check the trailer on YouTube — which is taking hits like “Rocky II.”
Montag says she went back to the Butte to chill. “It’s a whole different mentality there,” she says, “I go to see how other people live.” Back in Hollywood, she says she models her relationship with Spencer after the Beckhams. Oh brudda.
Heidi also talks about the accidental death of her stepbrother Eric O’Hara on Feb. 28. He was the Army paratrooper who survived 15 months in Iraq, then returned to Steamboat Springs, where he died after a six-story fall from a hotel roof, where he was shoveling snow. Heidi says the death has “brought me back to reality.”
Reality TV maybe.
What happens in Vegas.
It was girls gone wild in Las Vegas this past weekend. Birthday celebrations drew Ellen Robinson Schwartz, Nancy Sagar, Lisa Herzlich, Terry Vitale, Nancy Levine and Sylvia Atencio to Sin City to throw a few dice, hang out with former Denver columnist Norm Clarke and see Bette Midler’s new show. Even better than Bette: Sagar hit it big on the slot machine.
Conventional wisdom.
We hear Sheryl Crow will headline a “green” star-filled concert at Red Rocks to open the Democratic National Convention on Aug. 24.
And look for a salute to the American presidency to visit during the convention — with re-creations of the Oval Office and Air Force One.
Woof!
Colorado Dog magazine’s cover is all dogs — but inside we see a few owners with their pups.
Channel 7’s weather guy Mike Nelson shows off his two pugs, Ting and Torq. And Channel 9’s sportsman Drew Soicher is at Coors Field with Mighty Casey Mudville, an Old English Sheepdog.
City spirit.
