Get to know "The City"

Posted 2:46 p.m., Dec. 18

One more episode of "The Hills," then it's to "The City." And on its first night at 9 p.m. Chicago time on Dec. 29 (Monday), there will be back-to-back episodes.

So here's what we know so far, Whitney Port (aka Lauren's advice guru and hands-down the most sane and logical Hills castmate) is leaving LA to work for Diane Von Furstenberg and live in NYC.

We've already met Jay Lyon, her potential love interest and rocker from Australia. The couple first got cozy in NY when Whit was working for People's Revolution and behind the scenes at fashion shows. She ditched model Alex to hang with Jay. She saw him briefly after her interview at DVF. Will their love affair heat up and last, we hope so.

Soon we'll meet her new circle of friends and possible frenemies.

First there's Erin Lucas. She's one of Whit's BFFs who likes to party and confesses to dating three guys at once.

Then there's Olivia Palermo.

She's a native New Yorker and socialite and works with Whit. She's the one who refers to herself as a "social." She's been photographed with Ally Hilfiger and Tinsley Mortimer. Oh yeah, she's got frenemy written all over her.

Other City Castmates: Adam Senn, Jay's best friend and roomie who is a restaurant owner and model from Texas and has a model GF. And Samantha, an assistant buyer at Bergdorf Goodman Uptown, and meets Whit through DVF and become fast friends.
