Lala Kent revealed her most “cringey” moment on the season 10 premiere of Vanderpump Rules. She also discussed the “awkward” dynamic between Raquel Leviss and Peter Madrigal, who were ambiguously dating.

She recently experienced a public breakup with her ex-fiancé Randall Emmett, who was reportedly accused of running a casting couch. The film producer, 51, is the father of Lala’s one-year-old daughter.

On her “Give Them LaLa” podcast, she first shared she was “triggered” watching the reunion of season 9, which occurred soon after her breakup.

“Before the episode aired, I watched last year’s reunion, and I got so f***ing triggered by it,” she explained via Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “Just seeing that I’m in such a different place, but also it takes you back to the very beginning of everything that had happened. And I started like going into a panic, and I had to remind myself, you’re not there anymore, babe. You’re not there. Let this be a reminder that you were swimming.”

The star then revealed her cringiest moment in the season 10 premiere – a flashback of a conversation with Stassi Schroeder, when Lala discussed her alleged sexual role-play with Randall.

“Where I was cringing for myself is, and this is what I was talking about before the season aired, is I think a lot of my past behavior and things that I have said are going to clash with who I am now,” Lala shared. “That scene of me with Stassi talking about role-playing was one of the most cringey moments I’ve ever seen of myself. I couldn’t even watch it.”

In the flashback, Lala seemed to indicate that their role-play involved casting couch fantasies.

“I fast-forwarded through that part because, number one, what an ignorant thing to say when there’s women out there who have been a part of things like that, and it has scarred them for life. So for me to make such a stupid comment,” she continued.

“You know, role-playing, I never thought in a million years that I would come in contact with someone like my ex,” said the star. “I thought I watched those people on 20/20, and it was like, those are just people you see on TV. They’re not people that you actually ever meet. So that’s where I’m going to struggle this season is watching flashbacks because I know that editors will have a heyday.”

Another cringey thing to watch, according to Lala, was the interaction between Raquel and Peter. “I was hooked the second that Raquel and Peter started talking because that relationship or whatever the f*** it is reminds me … I’m not into drugs. I’ve never done drugs, but it reminds me of like, maybe taking the hit of something that, like, slows you down.”

She went on, “I just feel like when I watched them, I took a hit of something. Like, really slows me down mentally. It was so cringy and amazing. This is so fun because I feel like I’m a viewer, but also a part of it … But I’m always going to have my own back.”

“When I need to throw shade at myself, I definitely will because there were cringing moments,” Lala admitted. “Anyway, Raquel. Peter. Awkward. Awesome. F***ing loved it.”

Lala then addressed her costar, James Kennedy’s new girlfriend, Ally Lewber. “Also, a strange moment in Raquel and Ally talking. I felt like Alley was kind of trying to play herself down. It was like, can we elevate this conversation just a little bit?”

Vanderpump Rules season 10 airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
