Talking bromance with Brody Jenner...

Brody Jenner is no stranger to fame.

His father is Olympic Gold Medalist turned TV personality Bruce Jenner and his mom is Linda Thompson, the former "Hee Haw" regular who is an Emmy winning songwriter and had a longtime romance with Elvis Presley. And his stepsisters are the girls on the reality show "Keeping Up With the Kardaishans."

When Brody and I spoke Sunday at the MTV Video Music Awards, I wondered what holidays with that cast of characters must be like.

"We don't have Thanksgiving and stuff," he said. "Kim and them are my step-sisters, they live in a different house. Growing up, we saw each other but more in a formal setting."

Still, with those kinds of family connections, it was a natural that heartthrob Brody, who turned 25 last month, would end up on television himself. He and brother Brandon Jenner starred with mom Linda and former stepfather David Foster in FOX's short-lived "Princes of Malibu, " has appeared on "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," and was on MTV's "The Hills" - first when he was dating Lauren Conrad then later as Spencer Pratt's best friend.

Now it's time for Brody to have the spotlight all to himself on "Bromance," an upcoming MTV series that has him auditioning a buncha guys to fill a "bro" vacancy in his entourage after he had a well-publicized falling out with former BFF Pratt.

Brody got a lot of attention this week during one of the stunts for the show which included a mock cardboard cut-out of him wearing a pair of very low-riding jeans (see photo below).

"It's fun," he said. "I'm just going with the flow. As long as every year I progress in whatever I decide to do, that's what I think is important. You never know about the future but right now, I'm really enjoying being in front of the camera and behind it as well. I'm executive producing "Bromance" right riow for MTV, we have another show in talks with me not even being on camera but behind the scenes. I'm really enjoying that."

So how does a young guy like him stay grounded when so much of your life and the life of those around you ends up on television?

"I just remain myself. In every situation, I always stay humble," Brody said. "I know true friendship and family is what matters. I don't ever let it get to my head. At the end of the day, as long as it doesn't change you as a person, that's what matters. I'm just gonna live day by day and see where it takes me."
