# Reality Star Films Lauren Conrad Inks a Movie Deal for "Fictional Book" By Jacqueline Parrish | Published 2009-10-01 | Celebs Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lauren-conrad References: [monstersandcritics](http://www.monstersandcritics.com/people/archive/peoplearchive.php/Lauren_Conrad/imagescreen/369781/5) & [popcrunch](http://www.popcrunch.com/lauren-conrad-l-a-candy-movie/) Lauren Conrad, former star of The Hills [reality television show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-5), is once again making waves in the mainstream world. With two reality shows under her belt, a [clothing line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hunger-games-collection) and a book, the next logical step for Lauren Conrad to take was turning her “fictional” book -- about an ordinary girl who finds herself turned into a reality television star -- into a movie. The producers of Twilight have recently inked a deal with Lauren Conrad to turn her [best-selling book](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/library-science) into a movie of the same name, 'Lauren Conrad’s L.A. Candy.' I imagine the movie will be exactly like The Hills, except on a bigger screen. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 1% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celebs](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebs) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Celebrity Branding:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Leveraging the popularity of reality stars like Lauren Conrad to create unique and engaging brand experiences. - **Book-to-film Adaptations:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring the potential of turning popular books, especially those written by celebrities, into successful movie franchises. - **Reality TV Spin-offs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Capitalizing on the success of reality television stars by creating spin-off movies or TV shows that expand their brand and audience reach. ### Who This Affects Most - **Entertainment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing new forms of entertainment that combine reality TV elements and traditional storytelling to captivate audiences. - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborating with reality TV stars turned authors to launch fashion lines that resonate with their fan base and reflect their personal style. - **Publishing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Partnering with reality TV stars who have authored books to create multimedia experiences that include both print and digital content. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Animated Pop Revival Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-pups.md) - [Reality TV Cosmetic Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/it-cosmetics-keep-it-real-campaign.md) - [Reality TV-Themed Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-slc-scoop.md) - [Doll-Inspired Movie Launches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-mattel-movies-new-releases.md) - [Celebrity-Starring Skincare Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peter-thomas-roth-1.md) - [Actress-Starring Clog Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcm-x-crocs-campaign.md) - [Reality TV-Branded Snack Crackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheezit-reality-tv-collectors-cheddition.md) - [Indie Game-Adapted Movies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/el-paso-elsewhere.md) - [Socialite-Inspired Virtual Worlds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-hilton-1.md)
