Lauren Bosworth

Lauren Ogilvie "Lo" Bosworth (born September 29, 1986),[1] is an American television personality and author. She is best known for her appearances on the MTV reality series Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and its spin-off, The Hills

2004-2010: Laguna Beach and The HillsBosworth first appeared on the MTV reality series Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County alongside best friend Lauren Conrad and former classmates, Stephen Colletti and Kristin Cavallari. Throughout the series, she and her friend's lives were filmed during their senior year of high school, as well as the summer prior to college. She appeared as a regular in the first season, and made a couple of appearances in the second.

After Laguna Beach, Lauren Conrad (Bosworth's best friend since elementary school) went on to star in its spin-off, The Hills. However, the pair was not on speaking terms for the early stages of production. As a result, Bosworth was not added as a secondary cast member until the second season, after she and Lauren had reconciled.[3][4] This rift in Conrad and Bosworth's friendship was only briefly mentioned on The Hills. The only details given were that the two did not speak for nearly two years due to a fight caused by Jen Bunney, a mutual friend who has made several appearances on the program.[5]

During the third season, Bosworth, Conrad, and Audrina Patridge shared a house. Patridge eventually moved out and into her own apartment. Conrad and Bosworth, however, remained roommates and best friends, even after Conrad's departure from the show. In early 2008, they adopted a dog, Chloe, who was also shown on The Hills.[6]

In the fourth and fifth seasons, Bosworth began to reveal more about her personal life and allowing cameras into her place of work. In August 2008, PerezHilton.com leaked the salaries of The Hills' cast members; according to that, Bosworth received $10,000 US for each episode she appeared in at that time.[7] Although these salaries were assumed to be correct, Bosworth has never confirmed how much she made as a cast member.

Despite Conrad's departure in Season 5 Part 1, Bosworth was billed as a "returning cast member" for Season 5 Part 2. Despite rumors of not returning, Bosworth remained a member of the cast until the end of the series. She was elevated to one of the five lead roles in the sixth and final season, where she introduced her personal life by including her long time boyfriend, Scott, and dealt with drama at the work place as well. The Hills series finale aired on July 13, 2010.

2010-present: Current endeavorsIn 2010, Bosworth launched a website, The Lo Down by Lo Bosworth. She also wrote a book of the same name; it was released in January 2011.[8]
