Dancing Star Makes a Run for the Hills

Lauren Conrad is upgrading in the men department. The former Hills star has put an end to dating a string of Z-listers. This time around she's dancing with a star. The reality star-clothing designer-bestselling author is now seeing none other than professional dancer and Dancing with the Stars fixture Derek Hough, according to Us Weekly. LC and her new leading man went on their first date back in September and have since hung out together "a few times." According to one eyewitness, the cute couple is a match made in reality heaven. The eyewitness says, "They were very flirty. They were dancing and holding hands!" So far Conrad is taking things slow. It was only this past June that she and longtime love Kyle Howard broke up. But judging from the look of things, Hough might have all the right moves to get Conrad to take the next step. A friend of Conrad's reveals, "It hasn't been easy moving on, but Derek has been sweet. They are having fun and seeing where it goes." Sounds like a reality show in the making.
