What's one thing that can make a reality TV star who happens famous for absolutely no reason whatsoever even less likable than he already is? A bloated sense of entitlement.

We were somewhat disheartened to hear that Nevan Donohue, whose face you may recognize from The City, the new The Hills spinoff starring Whitney Port, ran off without paying his hotel bill recently.

Page Six reports:

Faux-cialite Nevan Donohue...stiffed the new Riviera South Beach hotel in Miami last week. Donohue, who co-stars on the lame MTV reality show "The City" with his cousin Olivia Palermo, vamoosed, leaving behind a $1,450 bill - "and one night was complimentary," a Riviera rep said.

Also, we sort of love the fact that this particular gentleman was also "busted trying to hire a hooker in exchange for Oxycontin back in 2007."

We hope not all of Port's cohort acts this way when they're hitting up hotels — especially when the staff humors them with VIP treatment and free stuff. As of this morning when the Post item ran, the hotel was still chasing Donohue down to collect payment.

Five Hotels Whitney Port Might Hit Up on 'The City'

December 29, 2008 at 4:30 PM | by Jenna | 5 Comments

Miss Whitney Port, The Hills' relatively level-headed blonde, has stepped out from the shadows of Heidi and Lauren to star in her very own MTV show set in the Big Apple, a reality series in the same "reality" genre of Laguna Beach and The Hills (so this is a spinoff of a spinoff).

The sure-to-be-epic program is creatively titled "The City" and will be premiering tonight on MTV. The premise of the show is essentially: she's young, gorgeous, works in fashion and goes out a lot — drama and carefully-edited footage of young pretty people staring at each other ensues.

The New York Post inquired about her social busy nightlife schedule:

"Her social life is completely organic," says [Creator Adam] DiVello. "We do get involved in where they go because we have to clear spaces in advance. If they're going out to dinner, we put calls in and clear the location [for the shoot]. But if they want to go to one bar that we can't go to, then we just can't follow them."

You know what all of this says to us? She'll be hitting up some ritzy, glitzy, PR-hungry hotel bars. Or so we like to think. If we may, we present to you our top five predictions for hotels most likely to be seen on The City (and now that we've done this, we all have an excuse to watch the show to see whether we're right or wrong).
