Lala Kent: Call her a whore, but don't you dare call her Basic!

[Silo]

Doughy face, weird makeup, naked ass profile pic on Instagram, said she would love to be paid for sex - but had a mental breakdown when Katie and Schenna implied it, possible escort, has a "hardened" presentation as if she had been hooking/doing porn/stripping for 10 years, dating drunk psychopath James.

I think that about sums it up?

[Silo]

So she said on the latest after show that she and James haven't slept together yet but that she knows "he's getting it somewhere" but that she's not too worried about it. She also said that she and him have heavy make out sessions, but that's as far as it's gone.

[BogoGog24]

Yeah right.

[yourmomiseasy]

So in other words, they're just dating for the show?

[BogoGog24]

I did a search on both Wikipedia and IMDB as well as the official Bravo page for VPR to try to find out what Lala's real name is but couldn't find anything. Laura? Lauren? Lauri?

[Silo]

It's possible that her real name IS Lala. I'm beginning to think she's one or two generations away from being trailer trash, due to some things said on the after show. Her "hardness" also presents that way.

[BogoGog24]

God, I really hope Lala is not her real name. How embarrassing. What exactly was said on the after show? I don't watch it.

I'm also wondering what her age is, I'm not sure if it was ever mentioned. I'm guessing early 20s.

[Budgita]

I think she's pretty but her eyebrows are way too dark for her skin tone and eyes and feel like she would look less harsh without drawing them on..

But maybe that's what keeps her from looking basic idk

[bblancobrnx]

In her TH, her make up is just atrocious. It is so shiny and makes her face look plastic. It is not really a good shade for her either. These people need to learn that less is more. Makeup is supposed to smooth out blemishes and create accents, not cover every square inch of skin with a half inch layer. Some skin should be visible. It just looks like a joke. Like a circus clown. It is baffling

[teapot]

her real name's Lauryn

I'm thinking maybe Starbucks mis-spelled it on a cup once, and she went w/it?

 

(kind of like how they once gave me a cup marked "Paisley", which is not my name, but I decided to start calling myself that; however, my teenage kid wasn't having it...)

[BogoGog24]

It says she is 25 and to my memory James is about 23. So he is dating an older woman again? (Not that 2 years is much difference but still, I always thought she was younger than him or at least the same age).

I laughed too much at this.

Her make up is far too heavy. The other thing is she needs to learn how to contour. She's pretty, but her bone structure isn't fantastic. She's got full apple cheeks and a soft jawline, not the kinds of bone structure that looks like it could cut glass. She spackles her war paint on like she's got the great framework to hang it on. But she doesn't and it makes her face look flat. If she's going to wear that much, she needs to contour to fake the cheekbones she doesn't have. I don't want to sound like I'm body snarking. She's pretty, but her make up is doing her no favors.

Wait...is that really a photo of her making out with Kristen on that page?

[BogoGog24]

From the angle that looks more like Scheana to me than Kristen but they label it Kristen. The season preview showed them making out while James makes his "slut" comment. I'm guessing there will be some sort of context to go along with that, like a part for a movie, photo shoot, or maybe someone told them they need to kiss and make up over the James drama and they took it literally. LOL

You're prob right! Because in the background, it doesn't look like anyone is really reacting to their kiss.

[fliptopbox]

I just figured out who Lala looks like...GG from Shahs. Except that GG knows how to do her makeup to accentuate her features, not make them seem more bizarre. At the very least Lala needs to change her hair color (lighter or darker, but the current shade sucks) and relax on her brows. They are too dark and thick for her features. She also needs to choose a mattifying foundation (that fits her complexion!) so she doesn't look so damn greasy all the time.

[bblancobrnx]

Can't get over the totally dead and empty look in her eyes when she was singing with James. Scary!

OMG! Thank you! It has been bugging me since her first sceen and I couldn't put my finger on it. She looks so much like GG!

I do think if her hair was a darker, richer shade and she toned down her makeup so her face wasn't so shiny all the time she would be pretty.

[yourmomiseasy]

I have an Aunt LoLo and an Aunt LuLu and I call my niece MaMa, so the name LaLa shouldn't bother me at all, but I'm annoyed by how stupid it is every single time I hear it.

[BogoGog24]

More than anything I can't believe she answers the phone at the hostess stand with that name. A nickname like that is fine for casual conversation or how she wants her coworkers to address her but she should use her real name when answering the phone.

[fliptopbox]

I wouldn't be surprised with how hip and trendy they all are trying to tell us that SUR is that Lisa encourages chicks like Lala to use their dumb nicknames. She probably thinks it makes her employees seem edgy and cool. And it does differentiate between Lala the "don't call me basic" and Lauren the one who cheated on Anthony....cos Lala's real name is Lauren, right? Or Laura?

I think we're being trolled by LaLa...

I keep meaning to ask, but what is a "basic bitch"? Is that the new term for "low budget bitch"?

Yes her real name is Lauren. But I'm not sure if the other Lauren is also a hostess or if she's a SURver, therefore if they only had one hostess with that name there wouldn't really be a need to differentiate. But I guess it's possible.

Basic means "average, boring, not worth considering".

[WhosThatGirl]

Yeah, basic is also another thing that I hate because it means women can never win. There are certain stereotypes associated with a "basic bitch" that really make me sad because it means women can never win, no matter what they do.

[Petunia13]

She seems like she's from the real life version of Hot Shot. That said I think she is pretty.

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Not here for this Do Re Mi chick at all.

[jojomano]

I just don't find her very pretty...meh...maybe a little. I don't see why the guys are going so crazy about her.

[Granimal]

I think they go crazy about any new girl that works there, because they see them as notches/badges. Seems to be the trend to sleep with as many SUR girls as possible.

[Ubiquitous]

I'm sure it has something to do with the new girls not knowing about what happens there.

[AnnieBananie]

Wouldn't it be the due diligence of anyone with a minimum number of brain cells to watch past seasons of VPR to know what goes on there? I can't believe that they have zero idea of what it's like to be on that show and be friends with these chucklefucks.

[Petunia13]

DaDa has bad skin. I was watching in hi def and a big screen and it looked like orange skin texture.

[WhosThatGirl]

I still cannot get over anyone wanting to be called Lala past the age of 18. Maybe it's a cute nickname in high-school or with close friends and family but I would never ever use it for a resume. Even if my job was being a hostess/sometimes model. Like I have nicknames from close friends and family that at this point with them are my name but I would ever put it down it on a resume. But hey, that's just me. 

 

I also loved how she was all, "I'm not invited to Ararina's birthday, I don't care" and then when Lisa comes in to ask all about it-and also WTF was that about? That seems like it was show driven, because why would Lisa ask about that? In past seasons she has tried to stay away from the drama that happens at the parties- and she's all, "I wasn't invited, yeah.." and making sad faces. 

[Jextella]

Lala is growing on me.  The things she says, and the tough manner in which she says them, suggest to me she operates in a highly defensive mode.  Something happened to make her that way at a very young age. 

 

I think we'll see a softer side of Lala at some point...the real person under all the swearing, girl's girl talk.  Took a few seasons to see Arianna's "soft little underbelly" (to use a line from "As Good as it Gets").  Everyone has one and if Lala sticks around long enough, we'll see it from her.

[BogoGog24]

I mostly liked Lala up until tonight's episode. The fact she sees something in Jax just makes her an idiot. Gross.

[straightshooter]

LaLa will do anything and anyone for camera time.  She's all about keeping herself relevant, and will do what it takes to stay that way.  She'll kiss the guys, the girls, apparently anyone with a pulse, and by the way she talks, there's not really anything that's off limits.   She knows exactly what she's doing.   I don't see it ending how she hopes it will, though - and the train wreck that is already set in motion will be seen and heard by all.  Hell, with as much of an exhibitionist as she is, maybe that IS an acceptable ending for her. 

The whole James vs. Jax thing (to which she is obviously happy to add fuel) isn't a testament to how great she is, as she'd like to think, but to how very desperate she is.  You're scraping the bottom of the barrel there, Darlin'.

[Petunia13]

That actually is kinda true. It's not a credit to her appeal she can hook up with Jax or James. I feel like they'd sleep with whoever is interested or around.

They seem like they types who'd fuck a glory hole I mean. . .

[jojomano]

Didn't she say it would be "dope" to get paid to have sex?

[Petunia13]

Yes. My eyes rolled so hard they fell out of my head, out the door, into my work, and were there talking shit about how idiotic and try hard this bitch is when I got there with a cup of coffee for them.

[straightshooter]

I'm officially speechless.  (Eyeball-less, too, because I didn't have a coffee cup.  Count your blessings, Petunia!)

[yourmomiseasy]

Which is worse, try-hard or basic?  Not that she isn't both.

After watching the latest ep, I think she's both.

[BogoGog24]

I agree. There's something about her that's trying too hard. I do however appreciate that at least she respects boundaries (when guys make her aware of them) and at least claims she would never fuck someone else's man, which is a step up from the rest of the chucklefucks.

[Silo]

Basic bitches are by nature try-hard. They try hard to fit in with everyone else. If they weren't average or run-of-the-mill, they would be independent and unique; therefore not basic.

[Absolutkaos]

Well for all those who love her makeup (lol).... you are in luck!

You can copy her slutty look with her makeup tutorial! And the most surprising thing is she has a makeup artist!

[Petunia13]

My great grandmother was a prostitute and great grandfather one of her johns, also I read a bit about the sex industry and human trafficking.

LaLa is aware that prostitution for many isn't all orgasms and stacks of cash? That Pretty Woman wasn't a documentary about their typical life?

Also if its so "dope" and impressive she knows she can do this fairly easy?

[BogoGog24]

I gave her the benefit of the doubt when she made that comment and assumed she meant it as more of a general comment, like getting paid to do something she would normally do anyway, like "Wouldn't it be great to get paid for eating?" or "I wish someone would pay me to sleep," etc. I would like to think she wasnt implying she wanted to be a prostitute although since she's a sugar baby and has a Kim K butt pic as her profile pic on Instagram, I guess I wouldn't put it past her.

By the way, I watched that makeup tutorial all the way through... Man, it looks awful. She looked way better before they put anything on. She's a beautiful girl with nice features but that makeup made them look harsh instead of accentuating them. Too much heavy contouring going on there and it could have been blended better so it didn't look so harsh. Also if you're going to use the scotch tape trick, you really should blend out the lines of the eye shadow where the tape was so it doesn't look so harsh. The lips looked nice though.

I don't think I've seen anyone do the tape trick blend it afterwards.   But either way her makeup artist strikes me as amateur. I've NEVER seen anyone use 4 inches of tape and pull it back into the hairline. And the ones who know about skincare usually pat the scotch tape on the back of their hand so it doesn't pull the undereye skin so much.

It might just be a personal preference thing as I know I've seen at least one makeup artist on YT blend it. It might depend on how it came out, usually it looks so stark, to me it always looks like it should be softened a bit with a brush just to make it look more natural. I agree about him using too much tape, I didn't get why he thought he needed so much. But it would make sense that he's an amateur if he has Z-list clients like Lala.
