KRISTIN CAVALLARI IS TAKING CONTROL

AFTER A FIVE-YEAR HIATUS FROM TV, THE REALITY STAR AND MOM OF THREE IS BACK WITH A NEW SHOW TACKLING HER OWN HEADLINES HEAD-ON

- By ALEX ROSS

Kristin Cavallari is no stranger to making news. Having been on TV since she was 17 on MTV’s Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County, the reality star, now 38, decided to confront the media attention she receives by taking her truth to the people, live and in person. So in March she went on tour with her popular Let’s Be Honest podcast, hitting four cities in seven days. And, in a full-circle twist, she let E! film the shows for a reality series, her first since Very Cavallari ended in 2020. “I said a thousand times that I would never go back to reality TV, but this fit naturally into my life,” she says. She sees Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour (premiering June 4) as something of a personal reckoning. “I don’t like being in the headlines. It actually stresses me out. But that’s what this podcast tour was about,” Cavallari explains. “I’m taking the power back.”

GIFT OF GAB GOES LIVE Cavallari's regular podcast guest, Too Hot to Handle's Harry Jowsey, joined her for the Chicago stop on her Let's Be Honest tour in March.
