Chapter 1: Who are the guests on this Laguna Beach reunion episode?
They are in Nashville with me. This was taped almost a year ago. The girls came to stay with me for the weekend and we had a blast taping this episode at my house. Alex, Alex and Jessica are some of my favorite people on the planet. We just have that special bond that we've had for over 20 years now because, you know, going to high school together and filming the show together.
I love these girls with my life. And in honor of me gearing up for my podcast tour, I thought this would be a fun little throwback while I am currently busy planning everything for the tour. So enjoy this episode with the Laguna Beach girls. Welcome in to Let's Be Honest. I'm your host, Kristen Cavallari. And what a fun episode today.
It's a Laguna Beach high school reunion, essentially, at my house. We have Jessica, Hoosie, and Alex. Hi. I'm so excited to have you guys here. So we just had a A bit of a wild weekend, I would say. Yep. We were in Nashville, decided to stay downtown for a couple of days. So you guys have never been to Nashville, right?
Chapter 2: What fun activities did the Laguna Beach friends do during their Nashville reunion?
Never. And you obviously can tell by my lovely raspy voice that this was a good weekend. It was a good time. Yeah.
It was a good time. So figured the girls were coming in town. We're going to have to do it right. So we stayed downtown the last two nights and we really did it up right. So fun. We did. What was your guys' favorite part?
I think Broadway, like yesterday doing the day thing on Broadway was like, that's, I feel like that's like how you do Nashville. Like classic day drinking on Broadway.
Bumping around.
Yeah.
Just like the people watching. So good. And the music. Yeah. It's so fun. And it just gets better as the drinks roll in. It's weird how that works.
Things just get better and better with each drink. Yeah. Okay, so we wanted to give you guys a little insight into Laguna Beach, the show. And obviously we had the Back to the Beach podcast. You guys all came on, which was really fun. But I felt like it would be even more fun to have the gals together to really just pull back the curtain and just go for it. Let's do it.
We were just recapping a little bit, just talking about high school shit. And we're like, God, some of this stuff we used to do is like just insane.
But it was so much fun. It was so much fun. Like when people say that, like they don't like their high school moments. Like I feel sad for them because I feel like we had so much fun. We really did it right. We lived it up. We peaked in high school. We are still talking about it 20 years later.

Chapter 3: How do the cast members reflect on their time on Laguna Beach?
Do you think so much better? Yeah. We should all try to really go.
No, I'm counting down. I can't wait.
I've been living for this for 20 years.
Yeah. Yeah. Right. Finally, almost. It'll be so fun.
Who's planning it? I don't know. Someone, it's like someone's in charge of it. The class.
Yeah.
Is it the valedictorian? Like the class president. What's it called? Valedictorian.
But I think Emily planned the tenure. Okay. So I wonder if she also plans the 20. I don't know. It'll have to find that out.
I think it'll happen. There's no way they wouldn't. Yeah. Someone's got to be.

Chapter 4: What are some behind-the-scenes insights from filming Laguna Beach?
Or 17.
Or 17. I was 15. Were you? No, we were in junior. I graduated at 17. No, it was off. Wait, how old are you? No, we were juniors. We were juniors. But I think it started filming before I turned 15. I think.
36.
Oh, so you are a year younger.
So that's possible. I don't know. Maybe I was 16 or like, you're probably 16 or whatever. God, that's crazy. I didn't realize that you were younger like that. Yeah.
I didn't know you graduated at 17. That's wild.
I know.
Look at you go.
Thank God, because it got you on the show. What do you guys think when you look back on it? I love it. I mean, obviously there's moments that are like...

Chapter 5: Did producers manipulate the storylines on Laguna Beach?
We would totally do it again.
So while it's like cringy in certain times it's like you learned a lot you know. Totally.
There's something really sweet about the show because we're so bombarded with reality shows now that like because it was that first of its kind movement like
that will never happen again ever and like it was very much real in the sense of like yeah we had to like have set up times to go talk but like we like there was nothing to know what we were doing so it was like yeah we're gonna talk about that person like there was no wrong real there was no like forward thinking of like what our future would be after so like we weren't motivated by what was gonna come
Right, where now people go on a reality show specifically to like create a career out of it, where that was never a thing.
We had no one to look to for that. We didn't even have like social media. Like now these people go on shows and they're like, now I'm an influencer or whatever. We didn't have any of that.
Which honestly, thank God. Oh my gosh. I would have been even a bigger train wreck if it were social media.
If someone could record me like doing appearances at 18. Oh God. I don't even like I have locked that out of my memory forever.
Well, just like zero accountability. Like we were just out in the wild thinking we're like hot shit. Yeah. Yeah, we were.

Chapter 6: What past high school memories do the Laguna Beach cast cherish?
We were. We were.
I feel like I mean, we took advantage of it in the best way at that time. But looking back, you're like someone could have been there along the way to be like, OK, you got to like refocus or do this. But it's like. But we wouldn't have.
No, that's true.
Cause when you're that age, you're like, I'm going to do what I want.
It was like going from high school to like a college like experience. And now you're. The college of Hollywood. Yeah. There you go.
That was my college experience. Okay. What's like the one thing that just stands out in everyone's head of like, God damn it. That was like the worst thing I could have done. Like what's one moment for everybody overall?
I mean, we can all look at me for that one. And mine definitely was the cop out and Jessica situation. When you guys got in a fight. I just feel like it's now having kids too. Like, oh, like my heart and my gut is like, I just would never want anyone to talk
that way or be but again it's high school and you do catty things and you're girls but like to have that like live forever and then not only that but I like loved Jessica too it was like we weren't like best friends like senior year but like we definitely were friends in some moments listen we've been sharing a bed all weekend okay like we're good you know things are fine we've been fine since that happened we were fine after the show aired we would like we would still be great we were still great friends
Because on the opposite side, like that's an embarrassing moment for me to like not standing up for myself and being like, you know, like that doesn't.
