Stars of Bravo's "Real Housewives" franchises -- the Miami show returns tonight -- aren't exactly known for turning their celebrity into profits and professional gain.
Usually, the headlines revolve more around party crashing and weave grabbing.
That's not to say that they don't try. You'd be hard-pressed to find a housewife who hasn't tried to launch her own line of clothing or underwear or chunky wrist cuffs (that last one was Lynn from Orange County).
But only a few have managed to actually make money or simply score further opportunities from the show. We're not saying these are the smartest gals on the network -- some of them are just bigmouthed impresarios who somersaulted straight into more reality television.
Nevertheless, they're paying the bills -- unlike Teresa Giudice from New Jersey.
Nene Leakes
Leakes, the drama queen of "Atlanta" -- and that's a real achievement -- was born to play the reality game. She was rewarded for her never-boring performances with a spot on NBC's upcoming season of "The Apprentice," where her feud with Star Jones is already the biggest news out of the show.
Ramona Singer
Say what you will about this "New York" subject's crazy-eyed conniptions. Selections from her HSN jewelry line routinely sell out, and she's also got a skincare collection.
Kim Zolciak
The Atlanta franchise's buxom blonde endured a lot of mockery for her dance single, "Tardy For the Party." But Zolciak had the last laugh -- the song took on a campy fan base and rose as far as #4 on the iTunes chart.
