Whitney Heads To The City Monday Night

This is it, Hills fans! Whitney’s leaving the Hills and headed off to New York City for a new job and a whole new flood of drama with her spin-off series, The City. The show is set to premiere this Monday and in case you want to get a head start on what’s going on in The City, we’ve got some character descriptions and a preview clip for you to check out.

When The City, premieres, Whitney shows up in New York just in time for fashion week. She’s about to start her new career at DVF as an image coordinator. Whitney’s friends are all about the glamorous life, while her boyfriend isn’t really into that whole thing.

Here’s the information MTV released about the new characters:

Erin Lucas – One of Whitney's best friends and her closest NYC confidante. Erin is a downtown party-girl who loves life and isn’t looking to settle down. Why date one, if you can get away with more? The one person Whitney can call a friend upon her arrival, Erin will help Whitney navigate the dating scene of New York City.

Jay Lyon – An Australian musician and the new love in Whitney’s life until a face from her past threatens to end their romance just as it begins. He adores Whitney but with so many temptations lurking around every corner of New York City and newly out of a long-term relationship, can he step up and become the man that Whitney needs?

Olivia Palermo – A native New Yorker and girl-about-town, Olivia is a socialite who knows New York City from top to bottom. Her A-list lifestyle is a glamorous mix of society parties, charity events, celebrity galas and her own get-togethers for her fashionable friends. A public relations coordinator and Whitney’s co-worker at Diane Von Furstenberg, climbing fashion’s corporate ladder might not allow them to be both colleagues and friends.

Adam Senn – A restaurant owner and model from Texas, Adam is Jay's best friend and roommate. Adam is completely devoted to his model girlfriend who travels the world constantly, but when she's away, Adam finds out the hard way that the pressures of balancing love and success in the big city can quickly build.

And here’s a sneak peek at the series:

The City premieres on Monday December 29th at 10pm EST/9:00pm Central on MTV.
