In the audience

When Paris Hilton, Beyoncé Knowles, Lil' Kim or even Ivana Trump and her sold-on-television jewelry are in the audience, are they really there to promote their own brands - and maybe to pick up a few fashion tips from the pros?

It's from an old newspaper article.

I figure all of them mentioned above have a jewelry line, then why 'her sold-on-televison jewelry' not their? Is it because only Ivana Trump sells her stuff on TV?
What does 'in the audience' mean? Where are they?

Who are the pros? Is it being sarcastic or something?

Can anyone help the baffled one here?

Thank you in advance.
