Does Lauren Conrad secretly agree with Heidi Montag's support of John McCain?

While the former BFFs usually avoid each other, both were among the celebrity guests at the White House Correspondents' dinner Saturday in Washington, D.C.

During his speech, Late Late Show host Craig Ferguson asked the crowd to cheer for which political party they want to win in this year's presidential race.

"I'm a new American so I'm trying to decide which party to vote for," he said. "Should I vote for the Republicans?"

Conrad "clapped wildly," according to New York's Daily Intelligencer blog.

Ferguson continued, "Or [should I vote for] the Democrats?"

At which point, "Conrad immediately placed her hands on the table and wrinkled her nose to her friend," the blog reported.

Earlier this month, Conrad's rep said the Hills star "believes in a private ballot but encourages everyone to vote."

The comment came after Montag endorsed McCain in the pages of Us Weekly.

"I'm honored to have Heidi's support and I want to assure her that I never miss an episode of The Hills, especially since the new season started," the Republican candidate said in response.

Conrad's ex Brody Jenner, meanwhile, has backed Barack Obama.
