Is “The City” being shut down?

According to a rumor spreading faster than butter on a toasted English muffin, “MTV has canceled (seemingly) successful scripted reality series The City,” with this season being its last.

A spin-off from “The Hills,” which has its own series finale next month, “The City” follows the exploits of Whitney Port and friends as they try to make it in the New York City fashion world.

The show’s success, coupled with “The Hills” going off the air, makes this rumor odd, to say the least.

And rightfully so.

Tony DiSanto, MTV’s president of programming and development, tells Gossip Cop exclusively that the show’s rumored demise is “Totally 100 percent not true.”

Whew!
