(Newser) – Even Lauren Conrad has had enough of Lauren Conrad. The Hills star says the upcoming fifth season of the MTV reality show will be her last. "This is as long as I can do it and stay sane," LC tells Seventeen. The wannabe fashion designer, whose past public relationships have failed, is even keeping her newest tryst from the cameras, reports People.

Of her new beau, My Boys co-star Kyle Howard, she says, "He's a friend. I'm a fan of labels, but 'girlfriend' doesn't always look good on me."
