Frankie D: Lynn Makes Audrina's Show Better

It seems like it's the formula for a successful reality show -- socialites and their moms.

There's Kim and Kris, Paris and Kathy and now Audrina Patridge and Lynn.

In fact, Audrina's former co-star on The Hills, Frankie Delgado, tells RumorFix that Lynn "makes the show so much better!"

Audrina agrees. "My mom she loves people," the reality star told us recently. "She's always been the center of attention and she loves it."

Frankie adds, "It's a show, remember that -- there's got to be some drama somewhere."

Audrina Opens Up About Mom's Drunken Tirade

Who could ever forget when Audrina Patridge's mom, Lynn, called her ex-Hills castmate Lauren Conrad a "pissy ass little fashion s**t" during a drunken rant last October?

Though Lynn has since apologized for the tirade, Patridge wanted to address the incident once and for all on her new VH1 reality show, Audrina.

"My mom had a little mishap with the paparazzi, and I really wanted to address that right away," Patridge explained during a recent visit to Us Weekly's NYC Offices. "I really wanted to give her the opportunity to voice what she thought on that situation."

"On The Hills, I was definitely the girl who dated a lot and went through all these ups and downs with relationships," she said. "You guys are going to see everything that kind of led up to Corey [Bohan] and I's breakup and all the rough times."

To hear more from Patridge -- including whether she still keeps in touch with former costar Heidi Montag -- watch the video, above!

Lynn Patridge, Trump Share Kiss On "Audrina"

Donald Trump makes an appearance on this Sunday's episode of "Audrina" -- and so do his kissing skills, unfortunately.

Audrina Patridge and her mom, Lynn, stop into his N.Y.C. office to chat with him about possible job opportunities for Audrina.

Trump tells Audrina she's "beautiful and smart" and he'd love to have her as a contestant on "Celebrity Apprentice" or as a judge on "Miss Universe," which he produces.

He then gushes to the mother and daughter about how "fantastic" they are -- and that's when things get really creepy.

"I'll give her a small kiss," says the married Trump as he embraces Audrina.

"I'll give her a big kiss," Trump then says, referring to Lynn, who’s also married. "Come here!"

As Audrina looks on in horror, her mother and Trump share two kisses followed by a hug, another kiss and then some lingering hand-holding before Lynn finally tears herself away.

"Beautiful, wow," Trumps says -- and then licks his lips.

Be sure to have a bucket handy to throw up in Sunday when the episode airs on VH1 at 9pm.

Audrina Patridge Talks Family Role On Her Show

Even before Audrina Patridge's new VH1 show, "Audrina", debuted last Sunday, the Internet was abuzz about what her mom, Lynn, would bring to the show. In many ways, Lynn's the breakout star of the reality series, which follows Audrina's career, love life and family.

"I was not surprised at all that my mom was a breakout star," she told MTV News. "She's the life of the party everywhere we go and ever since we were little, everyone that meets my mom, they absolutely fall in love with her. She just has that personality and she's very blunt and says what she means, but it all comes out from a good place and she's so much fun and has the biggest heart. I was excited for her."

Audrina is, of course, no rookie when it comes to starring in a reality show. She spent years sharing life with the world as one of the breakout stars of MTV's "The Hills." Now, however, she's ready to show more than just Justin Bobby drama.

"I was really excited. You know, it's kind of crazy watching yourself again and reliving everything that you went through, but it was fun," she said of the debut episode of "Audrina."

"It's different and similar [to 'The Hills'], and in many ways I feel like it's different because it's really about my life outside of 'The Hills' world," she continued. "And so this is really up close and personal. My family's in it, my relationship's in it and my business is in it, my endorsements and everything, like, my dreams and goals and trying to achieve that."

And if you thought she shared a lot in the past, just wait till you see what happens in the show's upcoming episodes. "I really opened up and brought the cameras with me. ... This is me uncensored and it's my family uncensored," she teased. "What you see is what you get."

Audrina Patridge: I’m Lucky I Have Great Genes

With her slim frame, toned arms and legs and amazing abs, it’s easy to wonder how Audrina Patridge maintains her ridiculously hot body. Sure, a healthy, active lifestyle and a diet full of fish and veggies help, but as the star of VH1’s upcoming reality show, Audrina, admits, she has her mom — and 69-year-old grandmother — to thank. “When we go out, people think my mom is my sister and my grandmother is my mom!” she tells In Touch. “They’re gorgeous!” Of course, the body she’s now so thankful for didn’t always feel like a gift from the fairy godmother of good genes.

“In high school, I was so self-conscious because I was so thin. Girls would say, ‘Oh, you’re too skinny.’” Once the former Hills star took up Pilates and started adding muscle to her naturally slight frame, her self-esteem soared, and she currently holds the title of most confident among her two sisters, married mom-of-two Casey Patridge, 24, and 15-year-old high school sophomore Sammy. “I don’t know how she does what she does,” Casey tells In Touch of her sister’s glam, skin-baring spreads in magazines like Maxim. “But I think she’s always been flawless.”

While there’s been a lot of plastic surgery talk when it comes to Audrina’s transformation from girl-next-door cutie to total sexpot, she tells In Touch she’s never “done anything,” but doesn’t judge people who have. “To each their own,” she says. “I do think people take it to such a point where they regret it, though,” she adds.

With the whole Patridge family filming their ups and downs for Audrina — which debuts on April 17 — there will be no shortage of straight talk from Lynn Patridge, who dissed Lauren Conrad in a Hollywood.TV video that went viral late last year. “I’ve watched the Kardashians and I can tell you our family will blow theirs away!” says Lynn. “I don’t mean that as an insult, but what you see is what you get with us. We’re 100 percent real.”

"Audrina" Extended Trailer; Premieres 4/17

VH1′s new reality series Audrina, starring former Hills and Dancing With the Stars mainstay Audrina Patridge, premieres April 17 at 9 p.m.

The preview of the series opens just as you think it might: “What you’re about to see is my reality,” Audrina tells viewers. Then, it heads into montages of Audrina meant to make us believe that she is truly a working girl. “I’m a model. I’m a businesswoman. And I’m a celebrity.” Cue the shots of her doing photo shoots, attending business meetings, and avoiding the paparazzi. Oh my!

“But most importantly,” Audrina then adds, “I’m a daughter and I’m a sister.” And honestly, it’s that — Audrina’s crazy family life — which seems to have the most delicious, trainwreck-y potential for this show. There’s her wild-child sister Casey, of course, who seems ready to stir up drama, but notably, it’s her mother Lynn (who, as you might remember, went on a darkly hilarious drunken rant that was taped and went viral last fall) that seems like a future punching bag of Joel McHale’s on The Soup. Based on this trailer, Mama Lynn holds nothing back in Audrina. “My mom can get a little out of control,” the show’s star freely admits.
