Ariana Madix is talking out in regards to the controversial declare that Lala Kent made in opposition to her within the trailer for Vanderpump Rules season 11.
“I have never experienced someone who gets cheated on and suddenly she becomes God,” Lala, 33, mentioned within the preview clip, seemingly suggesting Ariana, 38, started performing as if she was above the solid after Tom Sandoval, 41, cheated on her with their former castmate and pal, Rachel “Raquel” Leviss, 29.
“You’re gonna have to find out why I said that,” Lala teased throughout a January 17 interview with Entertainment Tonight on the Pump Rules season 11 premiere social gathering. “You’ll see why I say it. Bottom line is, no matter what types of beefs I go through with the girls on this show, I have a tremendous amount of respect for all of them and that will not change.”
“You’re gonna see, you know, everything plays out. And I think what’s great about this season is that people will be torn,” she continued. “And I love when people are torn on reality TV because it creates the conversation. You know, cause there’s nothing more I love than like Bravo talk.”
At the identical occasion, Ariana was requested about Lala’s trailer diss.
“Well, come correct. It’s goddess,” she clarified, earlier than including, “I always was one and so was she.”
Also talking to Entertainment Tonight, Lala mirrored on her determination to attain out to Raquel in hopes of convincing her to return to Pump Rules, saying that she “didn’t ask the group” beforehand.
“I told them later — and you guys will see how they react,” Lala mentioned of an upcoming scene.
While many distanced themselves from Raquel after studying of her sordid affair with Sandoval, Lala felt some sympathy towards her.
“It resonated with me that she had been isolated, or she said she had been isolated, by Tom Sandoval. I know that feeling,” Lala shared. “I also felt that she needed to come back and apologize wholeheartedly when dust had settled, not when we’re three weeks into Scandoval at a reunion, you know? Like, really have productive conversations.”
But Raquel didn’t return to the present. Instead, she shared her aspect of “Scandoval” in a tell-all interview with Bethenny Frankel, 53, earlier than launching her personal podcast, Rachel Goes Rogue, which Lala feels “was not a good decision.”
“I think if she opted out and then moved on to live a very normal life? Great, don’t come back,” Lala reasoned. “But to not come back and do a podcast instead, I just thought it was one of the lamest decisions to make, and I felt like she was extremely ill-advised.”
Vanderpump Rules season 11 premieres on Tuesday, January 30, at 8/7c on Bravo.
