Attention all Whitney Port wannabes and Olivia Palermo (aka "Whitiva") obsessers, who still foolishly believe MTV's The City is the real life story of Whitney's hard knock dramalicious life in the big bad NYC, think again. Last night, an MTV producer visited numerous restuarants on Hudson Street, including the dainty Bourbon Street Southern Pantry to film the latest episode in Whitney's saga....The producer came into Bourbon Street late last night offering a contract to use the site with no monatary compensation and no guarantee that the restaurant's name would be broadcasted. The producer also wanted the staff and extras to be there at 7:30 am so the restaurant would be free of pestering fans. He told the staff he would stop back to collect the signed contract before the next morning. The guy never showed. All we need to find now is Whitney's script.
