Lala Kent's Net Worth

Lala Kent is an actress and television star best known for playing herself on the reality TV series “Vanderpump Rules.” She was romantically linked to film and television producer Randall Emmett with whom she had a child last year. However, they ended their engagement and separated recently, and she is reportedly now dating other people. What is Lala Kent’s net worth?

Who Is Lala Kent?

As aforementioned, the actress is best-known for her role on “Real Housewives” spinoff “Vanderpump Rules.” The series has been on the air, on the Bravo network, since 2013. Lala began making recurring appearances in Seasons 4 and 5. She then became a main cast member starting in Season 6. This has continued through the most recent season, 2021’s Season 9.

Lala Kent Childhood

Lala Kent wasn’t born Lala Kent. She was born in Salt Lake City, Utah as Lauren Birmingham in 1990. She began acting later under the name Lauryn Kent, before ultimately becoming Lala Kent.

Nicki Swift reports that Lauren’s family wasn’t Mormon, and that she was often bullied in the Mormon-heavy area where she grew up. However, she found her tribe in the theatre classes and started acting at a young age. She is very close with her mother and younger brother. She was close to her father, too, although he passed away in recent years.

She began spending time in LA as soon as she was out of high school, although she didn’t move there full-time until she was 23. She started appearing on “Vanderpump Rules” at the age of 25.

Lala Kent Personal Life

In her early twenties, Lala Kent dated football player Carter Hoffman. After they split up, she dated around. Shortly after beginning work on “Vanderpump Rules,” she began dating Randall Emmett. They kept their relationship secret for about two years. Then they went public. They had an on-again off-again relationship that the press has eaten up. In 2021, the engaged couple gave birth to their daughter Ocean.

However, the relationship wasn’t fated to last. They separated by the end of 2021. People reports that she has started going on dates again. However, she doesn’t want to focus her energies on a man. She wants to grow her business, which is primarily a beauty brand, and raise Ocean. She wants more kids in the future, but doesn’t necessarily feel that she needs to be attached to a man to make that happen.

Where Lala Kent’s Net Worth Comes From

Here is some information on Lala Kent’s work history, acting credits, and where she earns income from.

Modeling

Lala Kent initially began earning money primarily for her work as a model.

SUR Hostess

Vanderpump Rules has a restaurant called SUR (for sexy, unique restaurant). It’s featured in the show, as is the staff. Lala Kent is a hostess in the restaurant. Presumably the staff earns money for their work in addition to the money they earn from the show that films this work.

Vanderpump Dog Foundation

There’s also the Vanderpump Dog Foundation, an LA-based animal rescue that focuses on helping rescue dogs from the meat industry in China. Lala Kent is a volunteer for this organization. Her mom works for the Humane Society and Lala started volunteering as an animal activist long before she became a “Vanderpump Rules” star.

Other Acting Credits

In addition to the roles she plays as herself, such as those on “Vanderpump Rules” and also appearances on other “Real Housewives” shows, Lala Kent has 16 IMDB acting credits to her name. Many of these are under the name Lauryn Kent, starting with a 2009 appearance in the film “Reflections in the Mud.” It was a few years before her next appearance, a music video in 2013. Then she started gaining more regular work in the industry including:

  • Four roles in 2014/2015
  • One role in “The Row” in 2018; she played the lead in this film
  • Three roles in 2019, which was when she started accepting roles under the name Lala Kent
  • Three roles in 2020
  • Two roles in 2021

Her most recent roles were as Elva in “American Traitor: The Trial of Axis Sally” and as Billie Jean in “Out of Death.” IMDB doesn’t currently have her listed in pre-production or production for any upcoming 2022 roles, but we’re keeping an eye out.

She Sings, Too

Although this isn’t a huge part of Lala Kent’s net worth, IMDB reports, “Lala’s hit single Boy reached #1 in the Electronic genre on iTunes in 2018.”

Social Media and Merch Sales

Like many reality television celebrities, Lala Kent has taken advantage of the opportunities available to her to promote products for money. She uses her social media channels as an influencer and she also has a .

Additionally, she has her own website where she sells branded hoodies, joggers, tote bags, and more. She also more recently introduced the Give Them Lala baby brand for baby clothing and accessories.

Give Them Lala Beauty

In terms of merchandise sales, the majority of Lala Kent’s net worth comes from her beauty brand. Various sources call her a “beauty mogul.” The Give Them Lala Beauty brand includes both makeup and skin products. You can find these together on the separate but separately on social media under hashtags #givethemlalabeauty and #givethemlalaskin.

Autobiography

Some of Lala Kent’s net worth also comes from her book sales. Her book, “Give Them Lala,” came out in May 2021. It’s available for sale through major channels such as Amazon, as well as through her own website. It’s available as hardcover, Kindle, and audio book. In April 2022, the paperback version will also become available for purchase.

As you can see, she has diversified her income, which is such a critical component of wealth building.

What Is Lala Kent’s Net Worth?

We turned to Celebrity Net Worth as our favorite reporter on this topic. According to them, Lala Kent’s net worth is approximately $2 million. Notably, at the time they wrote that, they reported that she had three quarter of a million followers on Instagram. However, if you check her stats today, she’s almost one million more than that. Since she makes her money in large part by marketing her book, podcast, beauty products, and baby line through social media, we suspect Lala Kent’s net worth might actually have grown since that reporting.

‘LPBW’ Molly Roloff’s Net Worth

January 27, 2022 By Leave a Comment

'LPBW' Molly Roloff's Net Worth

Did you start watching “Little People, Big World” when it first hit the small screen back in 2006? If so, then you’ve known Molly Roloff since before she was even a teenager. She was on the show throughout her teens, but started appearing less and less as she got older. She hasn’t been on recent seasons much. Which makes us wonder, what is ‘LPBW’ Molly Roloff’s net worth?

Little People, Big World

If you aren’t familiar with the show, “Little People, Big World” is a TLC reality television show. It’s been on the air for more than twenty seasons, now. Fans have watched the entire family grow up and began to grow families of their own. So, who is this show about?

The show is about Matt and Amy Roloff, a couple who have dwarfism. It’s also about their children, one of whom has dwarfism, three who are average height. The one child who is a little person has a fraternal twin brother who is average height.

The family lives on a farm in Oregon. When the show first aired, they assumed it would be just a few episodes about their life. Matt and Amy thought it was a great opportunity to educate the public about what it’s like being a little person, raising a family, living on a farm. The public clearly loved it since it’s 16 years later and still going strong.

Obviously, the children have grown up during that time. Molly was twelve when they first began filming. Now she’s 28 years old.

Who Is Molly Roloff?

Molly is Matt and Amy’s only daughter. She has two older brothers – twins Zach and Jeremy. They have one younger brother, Jacob. She left the farm in 2012 so that she could attend college. Since she was away from home, she stopped appearing very often on “Little People, Big World,” although she would show up from time to time, returning home for the holidays and so forth.

She moved to Washington where she attended Whitworth University. She didn’t just double major but ambitiously triple-majored at the school. She has degrees in Accounting, Literature, and Spanish Language. Her accounting degree is that one that she puts most to use, having gotten her first job as an accountant as soon as she graduated with her Bachelor’s degrees in 2016. She was a member of the Business Club and Laureate Society, and she graduated Summa Cum Laude.

The year after she graduated from college, she married her then-boyfriend Joel Silvius. They got married on the Roloff family farm. However, the cameras weren’t rolling for the event. That’s despite the fact that the family had started a new business – and spin-off show: “Little People, Big World: Wedding Farm.” Matt and Amy had gotten into wedding planning, which was what that show was all about. Nevertheless, both Molly and Joel prefer to stay out of the spotlight. In recent seasons, they haven’t appeared on the show at all. They keep most of their social media profiles set to private, and they avoid being in the public eye as much as they can. They have two children that they keep out of the public eye.

‘LPBW’ Molly Roloff’s Net Worth Comes From Hard Work

Molly obviously earned money as part of the family during the years that she was actively filming “Little People, Big World.” We don’t know exactly what the family earned or how that money was divided when they were still children. We do know, however, that Molly filmed steadily for those first seasons as a child. And yet, she didn’t want to rely on her parents money, or celebrity status, to support herself. She proudly has chosen to support herself entirely from her hard work as an accountant.

Molly’s Career Path

According to her LinkedIn profile, Molly Roloff worked during college. She did management, marketing, admin, and transcriptionist work at three different places, including her university and a local church. After she graduated, she got a job as an assurance staff member at Moss Adams. A couple of years later, she was moved up to a senior accounting position there. She remained there until 2021. In June of that year she took a position as a senior accountant for Nordstrom Rack, which is where she works today. She also volunteers as a tax assistant, something she’s donated her time to for the past seven years.

Molly and Joel’s Home

Molly and her husband Joel announced in 2019 that they had purchased their first home together. Well, actually, Molly’s brother Zach made the announcement. Molly keeps her Instagram set to private but her brother shared her news publicly through his account.

It’s a ranch-style home in Washington state, about six hours drive from her family’s Oregon farm. Gossip Next Door reports that the home was purchased for about $300,000. It’s a four-bedroom, three-bath, two-car garage home with a large yard and lots of space.

What Does Joel Silvius Do For a Living?

Reports indicate that Joel works as a research data analyst. The couple met because they went to the same university. He went on to get his MBA. So, of course, he also contributes to their family’s total net worth.

What Is ‘LPBW’ Molly Roloff’s Net Worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, ‘LPBW’ Molly Roloff’s net worth is just under three quarters of one million dollars. That seems fairly high for someone still in their twenties. She may have retained some of her income from her early days on reality television and the few appearances that she has made since then. However, this is not an exorbitant amount. And remember that she’s an accountant for a living. Therefore, she knows about handling her money. She may have managed to secure this $700,000 net worth on her own.

’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s Net Worth

January 22, 2022 By Leave a Comment

'90-Day Fiance' Alan and Kirlyam Cox's Net Worth

Reality television relationships are complicated. Of course, all relationships are complicated. But playing out your relationship drama for all the world to see adds an extra layer of difficulty. The stars of 90 Day Fiance are already dealing with a lot of relationship stressors. After all, they’re from different cultures, they use marry quickly to obtain their visas, and then there’s that element of television filming. Many of them don’t make it as a couple. However, some day, including a couple from the very first season of the show. What is  ’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s net worth and what are they doing today?

90 Day Fiance TV Show

If you aren’t familiar with this popular reality television show, here’s basically how it works:

  • It features couples that live in different countries, one in the United States and one elsewhere.
  • They are in a relationship, usually having spent only a very small amount of time in person with one another.
  • The person from the other country comes to the United States on a 90-day visa.
  • During that 90 days, the couple must marry, or else the individual has to return home due to visa regulations.
  • The television show follows them along the 90-day journey, documenting their ups and downs, and their wedding if they end up having one.

There are many 90 Day Fiance spinoff shows. For example, “The Other Way” features couples in a similar situation except that the person in the United States moves to the other country instead of vice versa. The show has many updates and follow-ups. For example, The Single Life features people whose relationships didn’t work out the first time and now they’re single and dating again. So, whether or not they’ve made it as a couple, viewers often get to see how their lives are turning out.

Who Are ’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox?

90 Day Fiance first aired in 2014. Therefore, we’ve seen eight seasons of the show so far, following many couples along their journeys. (Each season features multiple couples.) Alan and Kirlyam Cox were featured on the very first season of the show. The couple is still together today.

They Met When She Was a Child

Many of the 90 Day Fiance couples originally met online. However, the story for these two is a bit different. Alan is several years older than Kirlyam. When he was 20, he went to Brazil on a Mormon missionary trip where he met Kirlyam and her family. She was a tween at the time. Nothing untoward happened, and they didn’t speak again for years after he returned to the United States.

However, they reconnected again at a mutual friend’s wedding in Brazil when Kirlyam was 19. At that time, they fell in love. They were engaged to be married the following year. And thus began their journey with 90 Day Fiance.

Their Shared Values Might Have Held Them Together

The couple is Mormon and it’s possible that their shared faith helped hold them together through the difficulties of a cross-cultural marriage. They certainly faced their challenges. For example, when Kirlyam first arrived in the United States, she wanted to try working as a model. Alan had problems with that, and eventually she decided not to. Their shared values could have helped them to navigate these tricky waters better than perhaps some other couples would. Whereas many of the 90 Day Fiance couples come from extremely different backgrounds, these two had a lot in common.

Separation During Pandemic

The couple had to endure a bit of a physical separation during the pandemic. Kirlyam was spending time in Brazil and got stuck there as a result of the pandemic restrictions. Their son Liam was with her at the time. However, the couple managed to stay strong through that challenge as well. By this time, they had several years of marriage behind them, providing a strong foundation for the separation. Many fans of the television show say that they’re the strongest, sweetest couple, the ones with the least conflict and the best likelihood of staying together for a lifetime.

’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s Children

The couple brought their first child, Lia, into the world in 2017. Their second child, Enzo, was born in June 2021. The family lives together in the United States today.

’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s Net Worth and Income

Obviously, much of ’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s net worth comes from their reality television experience. They earned income from the show itself during that first season. They’ve also appeared on many follow-up shows and spinoffs over the years, further contributing to their shared wealth. However, in more recent years, they’ve decided not to continue to participate in the show. They felt like it had moved in a different direction than what they had and that it was time for them to move on.

How Do Alan and Kirlyam Cox Earn Money?

Like many other reality television shows, the couple earns some money from social media, celebrity promotions, etc. However, they don’t focus their energy on this as much as many other television celebrities do. For example, Kirlyam has a YouTube channel with about 36K subscribers. However, she hasn’t posted anything in the past few years. Her Instagram account has 258K followers, but she typically only posts a few times per month.

So, where does ’90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s net worth come from then? According to Nicki Swift, Alan earns the family’s income through his work as photographer and videographer. He has a production company called 0907 Productions through which he does that work. He also works as “a photo-simulation specialist and project manager.” He reportedly even supplemented TLC’s footage with his own during that first season of the show. Kirlyam is a stay-at-home of their two sons.

What Is’ 90-Day Fiance’ Alan and Kirlyam Cox’s Net Worth?

So, what is the couple actually worth? They have actually chosen to be very private about their finances. Most reports online place their net worth at somewhere between $10K and $100K. It’s hard to believe that it would be as low as $10K. A photo simulation specialist typically earns a six figure income in the United States. Combined with their reality television work, it seems like they would have been able to save more than that at this point in their lives. However, there’s really no specific way to know since they’ve opted to keep that information to themselves.

1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton’s Net Worth

January 13, 2022 By Leave a Comment

1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton's Net Worth

Amy and Tammy Slaton started sharing their weight loss journey on television less than two years ago. Over that time, they’ve really made a name for themselves as reality TV stars. The two sisters have both made some strides in their weight loss journey, with Amy meeting her goals. Interestingly, Amy Slaton earns a lot more than her sister. So what is 1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton’s net worth?

Who Are Amy and Tammy Slaton?

Amy and Tammy Slaton are better known as the 1000-Lb. Sisters from the reality television show of that same name. When the show began, they had a combined weight of approximately that much, hence the attention-grabbing name.

Amy Slaton was no stranger to sharing her story with the world before they began working on this show together. She had a YouTube channel where she shared product reviews and more. In fact, she supported herself in large part thanks to this channel. However, she also got some disability income because of the fact that she is legally blind due to an eye condition.

In any case, the sisters did a video together in 2014 called A Chubby Bunny Challenge. It’s received over two million views. And it helped gain them a following, Amy especially since it was her channel, that ultimately led to them getting the television show that has made them, considerably more famous. Tammy started her own YouTube Channel a few years later, in 2018, with her first episode showing her baking a cake.

What Were Their Lives Like Before The Show?

Amy and Tammy Slaton grew up in a financially unstable situation. They struggled with money and both found it hard to get and keep jobs because of their various health conditions. Amy was able to support herself through YouTube, and she also has a husband who works to support the family.

Reportedly the girls had a tough childhood. Family members, including their mother, called them names including fat and lazy. And yet, they did nothing to help the girls lose weight – neither by providing good nutrition nor by offering them emotional support. Tammy is 35 years old now and began comfort eating to excess at the age of 11 after the death of her grandmother.

In addition to the two sisters, they have two additional sisters and a brother. Their mother worked three jobs to support them on her own. Still, they never had enough money. The local church sometimes fed them or they ate fast food for meals.

Tammy Slaton’s Journey on 1000-Lb. Sisters

Obviously, by the time they were invited to be on their own show, both Tammy and Amy were extremely overweight. They both wanted to get bariatric surgery to assist them in their weight loss. Amy has gotten the surgery, had a child, and reached her goal weight since the show began.

Tammy, unfortunately, hasn’t had as much success. Much of the show has focused on her personal relationships, including two problematic boyfriends. Her relationship with Amy seems to have suffered since Amy has begun doing well in her weight loss journey, leaving Tammy behind. Amy attempted to help Tammy — hiring a home health aide but to no avail. Tammy often refuses to exercise, even just to walk to the mailbox, and continues to struggle with concerning health issues.

Where Does 1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton’s Net Worth Come From?

Obviously, most of 1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton’s net worth comes from her appearance on the sisters’ reality television show. Reports indicate that the sisters likely earn the same amount of money per episode for the show. Guesstimates place that amount at $5,000 per episode or $50,000 per season. The sisters are in their third season of the show right now and will likely get a pay increase with every new season.

Of course, that’s nothing to sneeze at. But $50,000 isn’t mega-rich either. In some states, it’s not even enough to pay the bills. Luckily, they live in Kentucky, which has a relatively low cost of living. That said, like many people, they want to earn more than that.

Therefore it’s no surprise that both sisters supplement their income. They do so in the ways that help grow income for many reality television stars: public appearances, YouTube and other social media advertising, merch sales, etc. Tammy Slaton has 135, 000 YouTube subscribers, with over 6 million total views.

What Is 1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton’s Net Worth?

According to the latest sources, the two sisters have quite a difference in their net worth. Amy Slaton earns considerably more than her sister. Therefore, her net worth is about one-quarter of a million dollars. In contrast, reports indicate that 1000-Lb. Sister Tammy Slaton’s net worth is only about $100,000.

What accounts for the difference? In part, this has to do with the things that were going on before the sisters ever became reality television stars. Amy started earning money for herself on YouTube several years before Tammy did. She gained a bigger following and worked more at sponsorships and other opportunities. She was financially stable before her sister. Tammy is playing catch-up.

Additionally, one can speculate that perhaps Amy also gets more opportunities related to the show because of her “success” compared to Tammy. The point of the show is to highlight their weight loss journeys. Of course, those journeys naturally have ups and downs. But overall, Amy is viewed as successful in her weight loss. People who are interested in inspiring “before” and “after” stories are drawn into that. As a result, she might get more opportunities to earn income as a spokesperson, etc.
