She’s no stranger to drama, given her role on MTV’s “The Hills.” And in a recent interview with FOX Pop Tarts, reality starlet Audrina Patridge revealed that growing up in the Orange County town of Placentia was even worse.
Miss Patridge told Tarts, "I got picked on. Girls were always rude and catty to my sister and I. They will say anything to put you down and make themselves feel better."
Audrina explained the key to high school survival was getting over it and realizing that other people’s comments actually came from a place of envy.
"I had a few close guy friends and the girls didn't like it, so they would call me names and spread terrible rumors. You just have to hold your chin up and take it as a compliment that certain people dedicate that much time and effort to talk about you. I don't think I'll ever stop experiencing that, I have just gotten better at understanding and dealing with it."
Indeed, it seems that Patridge is still experiencing a form of her former high school torture, this time from the general public.
"People assume they know me from what they see in the media and on television: that I am just full of blank stares and another painted face in Hollywood, riding that 15 minutes of fame on a reality show. It's hard to be judged when the public is only seeing a teeny tiny bit of what I am all about. I love music, my family and my friends with everything I have, and I am very dedicated to my dreams."
