Laguna Beach; The Hills

Lauren Conrad turned The Hills into LC Lauren Conrad at Kohl's, Paper Crown, The Little Market, and an 8-figure quiet-luxury career — without rejoining reality TV.
Clever & Unique Creations by Lori Greiner (QVC); Shark Tank
Lori Greiner
Lori Greiner — the Queen of QVC, Shark Tank shark since 2012, and the investor behind Scrub Daddy. Estimated net worth $150M-$250M depending on source.
