Not Into Valentine's Day? You're Not Alone


For all of you who don't share the same happy, floating on air, love makes the world go round feeling on Valentine's Day don't worry you're not alone! The ex reality show star, Lauren Conrad told MTV it wasn't one of her favorite days to celebrate.

It's not hard to guess why she wouldn't be a fan of the holiday! We've all watched season after season the many failed relationships she's been through "I'm not really a Valentine's Day girl. I'm not big on celebrating it. I've never really had an amazing Valentine's Day." Don't worry Lauren we're sure can say there's a whole handful people who wouldn't disagree with you!

Through the cheating and the heartbreak the former "Hills" star has grown mature and more confident in the past couple of years. "Oh, I knew back then when I was being cheated on. But I overlooked it. The more confident me has come to the point where I've finally realized it's not something that everyone does," she shared. "And it's not OK to have your guy hook up with someone else. You deserve better."

It's ok, Valentine's Day isn't for everyone!

She explained to CMT Radio host Cody Alan: "I haven't seen ‘Valentine's Day’ at all. So hopefully we'll get to do a private screening because we both wanna see it so bad 'cause our scene was so much fun to do."

The songstress recently admitted she was ready to start dating again following her split from Joe Jonas last October.

Pete Wentz and Tyrone Wells Spread The Love!

This Valentine’s day, Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy and singer-songwriter Tyrone Wells are playing cupid for a cause. Invisible Children, a media-based organization that provides relief for the war-affected people of northern Uganda, is holding a raffle to win a personalized Valentine’s videogram for your sweetheart. Tickets can be purchased as two for $2, four for $5, or 20 for $20 on Invisible Children’s online store until February 11th.

Winners will receive a personal note from Pete or Tyrone to their Valentine via video on February 14th, with all proceeds going to Invisible Children. The raffle’s inception came about with Wells in 2008, who has largely been involved with Invisible Children throughout the years. Wells has participated in their national event called the Global Night Commute, and by selling the original ‘Rough Cut’ documentary on the road. Wentz has also been an active advocate for the organization, taking Invisible Children out on three Fall Out Boy tours, including their upcoming tour in April, along with his involvement in other fundraising initiatives, including his recent art show in Los Angeles with Travis from Gym Class Heroes.

Invisible Children’s ability to creatively integrate a community of musicians and artists around its mission has generated a global awareness about the longest-running war in Africa in an entirely unique way. With the success of 12 band tours, benefit shows, and music festivals like Bamboozle and Warped tour, Invisible Children has empowered artists to use their voice in a powerful and inspiring way.
