While Lauren Conrad feuded with Heidi Montag and Audrina Patridge, coworker Whitney Port stood in the shadows, nodding her head and rolling her eyes as she let the other girls play out the drama for MTV cameras. But the levelheaded and leggy blonde steadied herself–and nabbed her own show, The City.

After four seasons on The Hills, the Los Angeles native moved to the opposite coast and out of Conrad's shadow with her own reality series, which chronicled her life in New York for two seasons as she launched her clothing line, Whitney Eve.
