After finding out that ex Brody Jenner wasted no time rebounding, Lauren Conrad calls him “scum” in French, which she then translates for pal Whitney Port. We’ve been rooting for Lauren to get a backbone, maybe this season The Hills will show her standing her ground.

Maybe not. Conrad, according to a review in the New York Times, spends a good part of the new Hills season “pining for Brody.” The paper’s critic says Conrad “could learn from [Heidi Montag] right now,” who “has emerged as a kind of feminist hero” for “her groundswell of self-assertion.”

Lauren could learn something from Heidi?! Wow! I bet she doesn’t want to hear that!

Season 3 of The Hills premieres tonight on MTV. Watch a sneak preview here!
