Lauren Conrad won’t be celebrating Valentine’s Day with boyfriend Kyle Howard this year because she feels the day is “forced”.

She explains:

I usually don’t make plans for Valentines Day. It’s so forced. I would rather get a sweet surprise on a Tuesday and reservations are impossible.

Conrad no longer watches The Hills, but instead gets her reality TV fix from a different show:

I haven’t seen it since I left. But I watch ‘Jersey Shore’ so I am still supporting MTV. Last night was the highlight, it was a double episode. There was two! There’s this one part where Ronnie hits a guy and they don’t really get the hit… Ronnie knocks him out. I really like J Wow because she can throw a punch!

I really only liked The Hills when she was leading the pack and it wasn’t as RIDICULOUSLY scripted as it is now.
