Whitney Port Officially Moving to The City

The Hollywood GossipOctober 9, 2008

We've known about this for weeks, but MTV has finally announced it officially.

The Hills star Whitney Port will headline a new spin-off, The City, which will track her journey from Los Angeles to New York, the network said.

The show is set to air next spring.

Now an employer of designer Diane Von Furstenberg, Whit reunites with "a best friend from her past" and meets "a guy she's head-over-heels for."

THG NOTE: That would be Olivia Palermo and Jay Lyon, respectively. Maybe.

"Surrounded by new friends, pursuing a fresh love life and starting to work in the upper echelon of the fashion industry is a lot to navigate for a new girl in the big city... especially one who has everything to lose," a press release hauntingly reads.

"In a city full of people with their own agendas, Whitney will have to quickly decide who she can trust and who to stay away from."

In her own statement, Whitney Port said of The City:

"I am thrilled and honored to be in New York City, not only working for one of the most renowned fashion designers, Diane Von Furstenberg, but to be able to mature as a young woman both professionally and personally."

All that's left to say? Move over, Lauren Conrad!
