I wonder if Brody Jenner is scratching his head and asking himself what his ex Nicole Richie is doing lunching with his other ex/BFF/whatever Lauren Conrad? Is this the oddest pair up since bananas and mayonnaise, or what??

Like Paris Hilton, she's charging club owners for personal appearances that might produce publicity for their venues in celebrity-obsessed weekly magazines. She was clever enough to spark a bidding war between Tao Las Vegas and Pure Las Vegas for the rights to hold her 21st birthday event - and bids are already up to $100,000. Cavallari has also mastered a method originated by Jessica Simpson and her father, Joe. She has a friend who fronts as a "personal photographer" and gets the "big photos" of her making out with pal Nick Zano. She then sells the images to the tabs, who give her a percentage. The practice "infuriates event organizers who pay her to attend their events because they only get C-rate photos for their use," a spy said. Cavallari's rep said, "We have some nice offers from different venues to hold Kristin's birthday party, and she has not yet chosen one . . . In this time of stalkerazzi who invade her privacy, Kristin, like many other celebs, has found a way to try to counter and control these uncomfortable situations and work with photographers they know and trust."
Less jovial, more jumpy, was Lauren Conrad, when I asked her about that infamous interview Brody Jenner gave to Details. “I found it a little bit hurtful, because I know that I don’t use people to get places,” she said. “If being famous is really that important to you, then go for it...But it’s kinda sad that you have to step on other people.”
I asked if she felt like he used her to get his mug on MTV. “I think that’s pretty apparent now, yeah,” she said dryly.
"I have broad shoulders and can handle what is written about me personally but when I am misquoted or mischaracterized as exhibiting a disrespectful attitude towards someone I care about, I feel I need to clarify the situation," says Jenner. "I genuinely love Nicole... I would never say or do anything hurtful to those I love and respect. I'm sorry it was represented that way."
