MTV just added a few more months to the life span of Speidi.

In a move that should surprise no one, the network announced Tuesday it has renewed The Hills for a fourth drama-filled season.

Lauren Conrad and her lackeys will be back for 19 more episodes, most of which will chronicle what the trendsetting and feud-sparking young ladies did over their forthcoming summer vacation.

The new season of the pop culture-permeating "reality" show will kick off in August at a date soon to be announced.

Just one more new episode of this season remains, with MTV sparing no expense to promote the appointment television.

Two hours before the season finale begins, the cast of The Hills will take over the net's airwaves for a countdown event, with a pre- and postshow (the latter featuring a performance by Usher) bookending the hourlong episode.

Audrina Patridge is planning a field trip from the Hollywood Hills to a Hollywood set.

The MTV reality star has hired a new agent and has quickly begun negotiations for her first movie role.

"We only just started working with her, but are already in talks for a feature film," Patridge's new rep, Jonathan Perry of Agency for Performing Arts, exclusively tells E! News.

Perry, who also represents Alyson Hannigan, Gina Gershon and the Kardashian clan, has big plans for The Hills star.

"She wants to do other things besides stay in that reality space," says Perry. "We are going to be getting her some television roles outside of The Hills, if they allow it. A lot of it is going to depend on what The Hills will be signing off on."

Patridge tapped Perry to energize her career after firing her previous agents at UTA, which still reps Hills cohort Lauren Conrad. (Patridge is still with her longtime manager, Gladys Gonzalez.)

"Audrina is interested in a lot of things, and I know she wants to get more involved with the Hollywood community on many levels," adds Perry. "We just started working with her a week ago. Our job is to create opportunity for her."

Last night, Barack Obama had a cameo via satellite on The Late Show With David Letterman to reveal the 10 things you didn't know about him. Check out his first little-known fact:

10. My first act as president will be to stop the fighting between Lauren and Heidi on The Hills.

Um, we love us some Hills, too, but all we do is run an entertainment website, not the country. Let's hope Obama doesn't have the reality series TiVo'd, like John McCain claims he does, or we're all in big trouble.

Jason Wahlersays Heidi Montag is "a liar" and "a hypocrite."

Lauren Conrad's ex sat down with E! exclusively on camera at his Hollywood home Thursday morning to talk about Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's claims that Jason made a sex tape with Lauren Conrad and then threatened to sell it. Speidi had also challenged L.C. to take a lie-detector test.

Wahler told E! there never was a sex tape, that he would take a lie detector to prove there is no sex tape and that Spencer needs to "get a life."

Check out the video to see what else he says about Spencer, Heidi and the sex-tape controversy.

Forget about Heidi and L.C. for a sec. There's a new Hills rivalry brewing, as Spencer Pratt and Jason Wahler duke it out in the press over an alleged sex tape.

Spencer tells Tyra Banks on her show Tuesday, "I know for 100% fact [the sex tape between L.C. and Wahler] did exist—1000%!"

J-Wahl quickly responded via Usmagazine.com: ""I do not have a sex tape of Lauren Conrad, and one does not exist. Spencer Pratt is lying again to get attention."

But Spencer stands by his account...

How did Rolling Stone get sworn enemies L.C. and Heidi into the same room for this undie-tastic cover? We’re guessing it took ego soothing, cajoling and the mediation of several presidents—particularly the dead kind.

Or else some major Photoshop skills.

In any case, this Nair ad gone wrong features Whitney looking for her fallen contact lens, Lauren pretending to have fun, Audrina pretending she’s naked (she’s more comfortable that way) and Heidi suppressing the need to pee. Can I go now, Spencer?

It’ll probably sell wildly well. Or not at all. We’re kinda praying for the latter.

Finally, a potential pairing that could eclipse Heidi and Spencer's screen time as The Hills' resident sweethearts!

Lauren Conrad seems to have found herself a new man. And efforts to identify L.C.'s fella seem to suggest he's one Doug Reinhardt, a 22-year-old O.C. native who plays baseball in the Baltimore Orioles' minor league system.

(Reality ties run deep. His sister Casey appeared as the overly extensioned, platinum-blond snob in season two of Laguna Beach.)

Already, Lauren and Doug have been spotted getting cozy at Goa nightclub in Hollywood and attending She-Pratt's birthday party at Boulevard3—an outing that was captured by cameras for an upcoming episode of The Hills. We can't wait.

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag hobnobbed with the president this weekend at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Two conniving white kids born to privilege and squandering their every advantage on vapid and vain pursuits? We wonder what they talked to Bush about.

Something in his slimey, flag-waving smile tells us this isn’t the last time Spencer wants to get inside the White House. President...Speidi?

O, Canada! Our home and native land!

Is there nothing Spencer Pratt can’t spin?

Lo and Stephen were having a chatty little interview with Ryan Seacrest this morning on KIIS-FM—dishing about all things L.C. (she’s seeing someone, but he’s not famous), when, in a puff of sulfur, Spencer appears on the phone to "clarify" the L.C. sex-tape rumor and verbally eviscerate everyone. With a smile, of course.
