Audrina Patridge has signed on for another season of the MTV reality show.

“I can officially confirm that Audrina Patridge will appear in the 6th season of The Hills,” Jennifer Shoucair Weaver, Patridge’s rep, tells Usmagazine.com. “Production will resume shortly after the new year.”

Over the summer it was reported that Patridge would not return to the show that made her a reality star in order to focus on her own spinoff series.

Apparently she decided she can handle both. The confirmation that she’s sticking with “The Hills” follows news that Patridge is set to start filming her own show.

“Next week, Patridge begins filming the pilot episode of her currently unnamed spinoff show, also for MTV,” Weaver tells Usmagazine.com.

Sources tell the Web site that Patridge, 24, is expected to bring in six figures per episode, and that the two reality shows plots might occasionally overlap.

She may be all for supporting her friends on “The Hills,” but when it comes to cheering on the budding musical career of Heidi Montag, Audrina Patridge isn’t exactly her costar’s No. 1 fan.

“I feel like Heidi, you know, she’s doing it for fun, where a lot of singers and people, they work their ass off, and they actually have amazing voices and they can really sing and perform, and I feel like a lot of people don’t get to experience what Heidi has, going on in front of a billion people and perform on TV,” Patridge told PEOPLE while promoting her new movie “Sorority Row” over the weekend.

“I just don’t think she’s taking it that serious, and that’s what’s kind of disappointing for me, for music lovers out there,” Patridge said.
