In the latest issue of We, Kristin Cavallari, 36, reveals exclusively that some of her onscreen antics on her reality TV shows were a result of producers intervening. She admits that one of the worst advice she received was to make out with the gay bartender, referring to a moment from The Hills. However, she also acknowledges that it ultimately led to another season.
Cavallari, who starred on Laguna Beach, The Hills and Very Cavallari, laughed off the awkward scene, noting that ultimately, she was happy with her production teams.
Kristin Cavallari had several producers looking out for her during her television career. They provided her with valuable advice, consistently being honest about when to tone things down or push herself further.
Cavallari highlights that positive individuals are not commonly mentioned in the business, acknowledging the existence of deceitful individuals while emphasizing the presence of genuinely good people.
Craig Conover, known for his appearance on the Bravo series Southern Charm, shares a comparable encounter, referring to the show's producers as "the devil." Despite expressing respect towards his production team, he firmly asserts that they can exhibit devilish behavior on occasion.
Conover, who is 34 years old, acknowledges that whenever someone tells him to "trust me," he realizes now that they were planning to "trick" or deceive him. Nevertheless, he is quick to state that nobody has intentionally provided him with incorrect guidance.
Zack DeZon/BravoThe founder of Sewing Down South received valuable advice from a sound guy on Southern Charm. According to Conover, the advice was to dress up in every scene to avoid being portrayed in a negative light. The sound guy emphasized the importance of dressing appropriately and performing better. Despite the positive impact of wardrobe choices on Conover's memories, Margaret Josephs shares with Us that she now regrets following the hairstyling tips given by the producers of The Real Housewives of New Jersey in season 1.
"The suggestion to wear pigtail extensions for my first season was the worst advice I received. They insisted that I had to wear them," she asserts. "In my first confessional, I looked completely ridiculous. I had never worn such long pigtail extensions before. They were excessively extravagant. It was truly the worst advice I could have received."
