Lala Kent came to her on-again, off-again boyfriend James Kennedy's defense when she was grilled during an interview on gossip blogger Nik Richie's podcast on Monday. When the "Vanderpump Rules" star revealed that she had sex with Kennedy when she was "blackout drunk," Richie said that it could constitute as rape.
"We f----d one time and I was so blackout drunk I don't remember one thing," the SUR hostess told Richie, as transcribed by Jezebel. "And I know that everyone says that, but I will say, I take accountability for every single one of my actions and I'm owning that now. Because I saw the condom and the wrapper so I know that something happened."
Richie said that "blackout drunk" sex is "classified as rape," and Kent said she wasn't "screaming" rape.
"It was obviously what? Consensual? How could it be consensual, platonic sex if you don't remember? And you wake up and you see a condom?" Richie pressed.
"People do that all the time. I know for damn sure he's not gonna rape me," Kent said. "I've known this kid for a long time."
Kennedy has a reputation of being a bad boy on "Vanderpump Rules," the Bravo reality TV show based on the staff at "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" Lisa Vanderpump's posh SUR restaurant in Hollywood.
The British DJ was also grilled earlier this week by "Watch What Happens Live" host Andy Cohen about the way he treated his ex-girlfriend and castmate Kristen Doute during their breakup, as previously reported by HNGN. Kennedy called Doute a "slut" and spat at her door during a heated argument which was aired in Monday night's episode of "Vanderpump Rules."
