\"\"<\/p>\n

The Hills’<\/em> Heidi Montag is plotting a lawsuit against Adam DiVello, the creator of the MTV docu-soap who stands accused of sexually harassing the aspiring actress and singer.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Montag claims she was inappropriately groped by DiVello following the 10 plastic surgery procedures she underwent to change her figure and her face last year. The alleged incident took place during a cast photo shoot to promote the sixth and final season of The Hills<\/em> approximately two weeks ago, an insider close to Heidi tells Life & Style Magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Adam came up to her from behind and grabbed her with one hand on her stomach and one hand directly on her butt cheek,”<\/em> the insider claims. “Heidi had six bodyguards with her. They took his hand off her and moved him away from the situation.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Snoops say Heidi has been “creeped out” by DiVello for a while and has vowed to exhaust all legal options against her boss. Of course, her Hills co-stars — including former bestie Lauren Conrad — have placed their support firmly behind Adam.<\/p>\n

Conrad, who The Hills<\/em> was built around before she left the reality show at the end of its fifth season, issued a statement in support of DiVello on Wednesday:<\/p>\n

\u201cSimilar to most of my fellow MTV castmates, I am in utter shock at the allegations made against Adam DiVello. Not only are they completely absurd but they are 100% without merit. Adam is a true professional and a wonderful person to work for.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

MTV is also standing by the producer: \u201cWe have looked into this matter and the allegations made against Adam DiVello are completely false and without merit. Adam not only created \u2018The Hills\u2019 and \u2018The City,\u2019 launching the careers of several cast members, but has worked diligently to maintain a respectful and appropriate production environment.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Fellow Hills<\/em> star Lauren “Lo” Bosworth took to her Twitter account to blast Heidi’s story:<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll repeat it: no one is\/has ever been assaulted during filming of our show. hey spiedi, do you know the definition of slander? NOT OKAY,\u201d<\/em> she wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
