<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Daisy Lewellyn</span>, style expert, TV personality and author TV Guide Magazine: How do you bring in the big bucks? Daisy: It's my job to help women pull out their inner celebrity no matter their body type or budget. I do this on shows like Wendy Williams and Dr. Oz, performing drab-to-fab makeovers on real women."
TV Guide Magazine: How do you expect the audience to receive you this season? Daisy: You will see that although I do work in fashion, it's not just champagne days and Louboutin nights. I work really hard.
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Geneva Thomas</span>, style and pop culture journalist TV Guide Magazine: Will we see any catfights on the show? Geneva: You'll see my relationship, at times, implode with some of the women. As the youngest on the cast, I definitely went from really trusting to being disappointed and embarrassed by some of their manipulations.
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Melyssa Ford</span>, real estate agent TV Guide Magazine: How do you bring in the big bucks? Melyssa: I'm in the process of redefining myself by breaking from the entertainment industry [as a frequent model in music videos] and diving head first into the real estate industry. But I define myself as a Renaissance woman.
TV Guide Magazine: What can expect from you this season? Melyssa: Drama, drama, drama! I attempt to solve the many conflicts that arise within the group.
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Demetria Lucas</span>, journalist, blogger TV Guide Magazine: What milestones will we see this season? Demetria: I celebrate my seventh anniversary as an award-winning blogger, and I begin planning a wedding with my fiancé. The biggest hurdle for me is trying to balance my career and wedding planning.
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Mica Hughes</span>, model TV Guide Magazine: What kind of relationship woes - either friendly or romantic - will we see on the show? Mica: You'll see me go through a traumatic family loss and relationship challenges with my live-in boyfriend. I did not enjoy the judgmental nature of some of the girls.
<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Brie Bythewood</span>, real estate developer TV Guide Magazine: How do you bring in the big bucks? Brie: I'm a one stop shop for all facets of real estate, from investing and building to buying and renting.
