E! News tattles claim MTV has forced an excited Audrina Patridge to pull out of plans to kick off her Sunday shoes on the upcoming ninth season of ABC’s ballroom reality competitition, Dancing With The Stars. Network execs at the network–where Audrina has made a name for herself as one of a dozen affluent twentysomething socialites conquering adulthood in sunny L.A. on The Hills — reportedly fear that the grueling schedule customary of DWTS contestants will cause “schedule conflicts” for The Hills .

“They won’t let Audrina do it. They told her it would be impossible because of scheduling conflicts,” reveals an E! source, who adds, “Audrina wants to do it. Everyone around her wants her to do it, but MTV, for some reason, won’t make it happen. Why wouldn’t they want someone from The Hills on such a huge show?”

Designer Vera Wang, La Toya Jackson, and reality star Dean McDermott are among the stars who will reportedly hit the ballroom when Dancing With The Stars kicks off its ninth season on ABC September 21. An official announcement of this season roster will be revealed on Good Morning America this Monday.
