This week on The Hills, we were treated to a cameo by Grammy winner Brandy! She was on the show for a single scene towards the conclusion of the episode – as a part of her gig at Sony BMG, Audrina assisted Brandy at Darkchild Studios while she selected the cover for her upcoming album.

The episode used Brandy’s scene as a vehicle for Audrina and on-again, off-again boyfriend Justin Bobby to display the staccato manner of their love affair. As Audrina stepped out of the studio to hash things out with Justin, the show spliced in clips of Brandy belting out a new tune of hers – the lyrics of which “coincidentally” underscored the emotional depth of Audrina and Justin’s conversation.

Brandy’s abbreviated appearance was the highlight of the episode for me. After all, she was my very first celebrity crush, and when she and Monica dropped “The Boy Is Mine” in 1998, I fantasized that the two songstresses were arguing over me!

10 years later, and her beauty is still arresting! If you don’t believe me, have a look below at the video for her latest track “Right Here (Departed)”, and tell me I’m tripping!
