Now, don't go to sleep, I know just saying the name Whitney Port, can put you right to sleep, so why give her a spinoff? Don't know, but the show The City, an MTV Production, will begin early 2009.

In The City, referring to NYC, Whitney will be working for Diane Von Furstenberg in NYC's meat packing district. Looks like Diane Von Furstenberg is ready to make a splash on tv, after her appearance on Project Runway last season.
