LC to Teen Choice: I'm Not Worthy!

Posted Aug 5th 2008 5:08PM by TMZ Staff

Even Lauren Conrad realizes there's more to life than "The Hills."

TMZ has learned LC is giving up the surfboard she won at this year's Teen Choice Awards for living her life on TV to someone a lot more deserving -- a 13-year-old Leukemia patient who was up for the $100,000 Do Something Award and lost.

Conrad met the kid, Pat Pedraja, at a Teen Choice pre-party Saturday where she presented him with $10,000 check from Do Something for his work recruiting bone marrow donors from minorities across the country.

We hear she personally slipped him an iPod Touch she filled with her favorite music. It ain't $100,000 bucks -- but we're working with a reality TV budget here.

31. THIS IS THE ONLY PHOTO OF HER WHERE SHE LOOKS GOOD. WHATEVER CHANGES SHE'S MADE, SHE OUGHT TO KEEP THEM. SHE LOOKS {FINALLY} SOMEWHAT INTERESTING THIS THIS PHOTO, ITS A CHANGE FROM THE AWFUL, PERFECT-MAKE-UP -AND-BORING DEBUTANTE-CUTSIE-HAIRSTYLES SHE ALWAYS HAS. THIS MORE HIPPY LOOK REALLY SUITS HER .
AMAZING.

32. Aww, lauren is so sweet. bet Perez Hilton WONT post this on his blog though. He has no problem getting negative dirt on LC from TMZ but whenever its something postive, somehow he manages to skip it, and whenver Spedi TALK about doing charity to get attetion for themselves he has NO problem posting that. I WONDER WHY?

34. "where she presented him with $10,000 check from Do Something "

The way I'm reading this, she gave him her surfboard and an ipod, not the $10,000.
While still a sweet jesture, some seem to think she donated the money too.

36. That was nice - but I'm sure it was a PR move. What did she win for anyway?

38. i think its awesome that LC took the time to give a shoutout to him in her acceptance speach - and to give him her surfboard... its a great gesture... and yes he won 10K from Dosomething.org, but why wouldn't LC give him more of HER own money since he IS doing such amazing things! that would be a more sensible and truly great gesture. i mean she did meet him and was so impressed... so why not put her money where her mouth is!?!
