Lauren Conrad's book "LA Candy" could be made into a movie, and the reality TV starlet told Gatecrasher that plans are currently underway to turn her literary gem (insert eye roll here) into a screenplay!

Lauren said, "We're hoping for a movie deal. I'm working on [adapting the book for the movies] right now, but I don't want to commit to anything until I see all my options. We have had a lot of exciting news in that respect, though."

The main character is a young, famehungry ambitious girl who moves to Hollywood, gets her own reality show and ends up working at an events company. As far as casting goes, Lauren admitted that things were more up in the air, but we think Heidi Montag would be perfect for the role!

Hey, we're not the only ones who are skeptical about LC's literary skills - Kristin Cavallari recently said she thought the novel was ghostwritten, to which Lauren responded, "I wrote my book, and I don't really feel the need to defend it. I've been writing forever. I have never written anything professionally before, so this was a big step for me. [Writing] was always my best subject in school, and it's something I've always loved to do.”

Uh huh. This movie has "made for TV" written all over it!
