Investing in her future. While reflecting on her Vanderpump Rules role, Lala Kent revealed how salaries are determined on the hit Bravo series.
“It really depends on what season you’re coming into,” Kent, 31, explained on Dear Media’s “Trading Secrets” podcast on Monday, February 7, noting that she still had other jobs when she joined season 4. “When you’re brand new, you definitely need that hostess job. I still was having to fit model. I still was having to be a hostess. Like, what I was making on the show was not covering much.”

The Bravo personality credits Vanderpump Rules as the stepping stone that led to other forms of success, saying, “If I’m on television, my other brands remain relevant.
