Heidi Montag: Snapshot

Name: Heidi Montag
Date of Birth: September 15, 1986
Birth Place: Crested Butte, Colo.

With Spencer Pratt serving as her unwavering cheerleader, Heidi Montag made herself the breakout blonde of MTV's The Hills.

Originally slated as Lauren Conrad's sidekick-roommate, the Colorado-native expanded her role through the drama she created on (and off!) camera with bad boy Pratt – who bad-mouthed Conrad in the press. The drama boosted ratings for The Hills, but ultimately ruined her friendship with Conrad.

In April 2009, the girls shared the screen one last time, when Conrad graciously attended Montag's wedding to Pratt. Montag, who shockingly underwent 10 surgical procedures in one day, briefly left Pratt as the The Hills ended its run – only to reconcile with her "fame-loving" hubby after filing for divorce.

When Spencer Pratt proposed to Heidi Montag, TMZ reported that he gave her a fake diamond ring. They claimed that Pratt borrowed Brody Jenner's credit card to buy an amethyst ring surrounded by diamonds for a mere $2,890.

Heidi Montag: Biography

2004: BFF Beginnings
After graduating high school, Colorado-native Heidi Montag heads to California to crack the books at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. At a freshman orientation, she meets Lauren Conrad, star of MTV’s hit reality show, Laguna Beach. "Everyone in the room was kind of gothy, and we were the two blond girls in the room scared out of our minds," Montag recalls to the New York Times in 2006. "I ran up to her and said, 'Will you please talk to me.'" Soon after, the new friends plot their move to L.A. to study at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising.
