Former cast members of Laguna Beach, Lauren Conrad, Stephen Colletti and Kristin Cavallari, have responded to claims that they were paid more to star on the show. The revelation came during a video of the former cast playing Wing Roulette. The question was asked during a card asking what was the per-episode paycheck for each cast member during season one and how much did it jump for the reunion special. Conrad responded by saying that they all received the same amount. Cavallar, who initially thought the pay was $2,500, also commented on the question. The series, which ran from 2004 to 2006, followed Conrad's path to fame and followed her move to Los Angeles to pursue a career in fashion before she left during its fifth season.
