While Lauren Conrad went on to be a top-notch author and fashion designer, Kristin, from 'Laguna Beach' and 'The Hills,' preferred acting and appeared in a few small films such as 'Spring Breakdown' and 'Van Wilder: Freshmen Year.' Yeah, we don't remember those movies either.

It's hard to say if Kenya Moore was an actress or a reality star first, but the 'Real Housewife' of Atlanta has some on-screen cred from her films like 'Waiting to Exhale' and 'I Know Who Killed Me.' The second one starred Lindsay Lohan though, so we'll just pretend that never happened.
