Conrad slammed the network Friday for passing on the pilot, which centered on the starlet's flourishing fashion line.
"We sold a show to MTV, filmed it and are really proud of the final result," Conrad told The Hollywood Reporterin a statement. "MTV felt the subject matter was too high brow for their audience and offered me the opportunity to change the show by incorporating more of my personal life."
The Hillsstar, 24, said that she and the network agreed going into the project that the show would focus on her career and goals as opposed to her personal relationships.
"We delivered the show that we sold and are sorry MTV didn't feel their viewers were savvy enough to appreciate it," she said.
