The Hills After Show Finale 2008

this was back in 2008. the canadian crew of The After Show went to LA for the second time to host The Hills season finale. i remember it was colder than it was in Toronto in LA, and it rained a lot. we shot the finale at a huge mansion in the hills, and the Goodyear Blimp flew overhead advertising the show. Usher was a special guest, and just as he was supposed to go on, no one could find him. panic ensued. turns out he was on his phone and didn't hear the knock on his door. i remember he performed "Love In This Club" and sprayed champagne over the crowd... mostly on me.
after we wrapped, we went to Chateau Marmont for some food and cocktails, and the The Bachelorette girl was there with her new husband. this was before the finale of The Bachelorette had aired so it was a big spoiler for all of our crew who watched that show.
