Lala Kent responded to receiving the Vanderpump Rules ax in a pretty cheeky way.
Following the news season 12 will continue with an all-new cast, Kent, 34, paid tribute to his time on the show with a series of throwbacks and a lengthy message.
Buried inside a carousel full of Vanderpump throwbacks, Lala included an X-rated snap of herself posing naked with her bare butt on display.
Die-hard Vanderpump fans may remember that Lala first posted the photo in 2020 to commemorate the season 8 premiere of VPR.
“In honor of season 8 and the new faces, here’s my butt,” Lala originally captioned the photo. ‘The profile photo I had from my first season on #PumpRules. This got all the bitches talking, and now the bitches are my best friends. Enjoy the episode, babies.’
The photo was just one of many celebrating Lala’s nine years on the hit Bravo series.
Lala Kent posted a series of Vanderpump Rules throwbacks as she marked the end of her time on the show, including a cheeky X-rated photo of her bare butt.
Lala, who joined the show in 2015, admitted to having “mixed feelings” after Bravo announced that the original cast had been replaced by new faces for the upcoming season.
‘Where to start. I was a young woman from Salt Lake City who came to Los Angeles. “I introduced myself as Lauren, but since my childhood best friend referred to me as Lala, my nickname quickly stuck,” she wrote in the caption.
‘Sur was a place that became home. Not only did I find myself drinking vodka sodas there, but also behind a hostess booth… to this day it remains the most intimidating job I’ve ever had. Shortly after, I was presented with the opportunity to be on a show called Vanderpump Rules.
‘I have mixed feelings right now. It’s no secret that I don’t like change. This is the exception. I want to thank you for being with us for so many years. This program changed my entire life. I am incredibly grateful for every moment. I am incredibly grateful for Bravo, for NBCU, for our team, for the entire cast, and most importantly, for all of you. We shook this bitch until the wheels fell off.
The post came shortly after Bravo’s explosive announcement that the original stars had been recast.
The new cast is made up of “tight-knit SUR-vers who are just as complicated with each other as their iconic predecessor,” the network said.
Lisa Vanderpump will return and the next season will begin filming next year. The new cast and premiere date will be announced later.
While the cast has changed over the years, last season’s top stars were Ariana Madix, Tom Sandoval, Tom Schwartz, Katie Maloney, Lala, James Kennedy and Scheana Shay.
“How exciting it is to build on the legacy of this series by doing it all over again,” executive producer Alex Baskin said in the statement.
She included several snaps with her co-stars, including James Kennedy.

The show originally debuted in 2013 and starred Stassi Schroeder, Jax Taylor, Kristen Doute, Tom Sandoval and Scheana Shay.
Kent admitted to having “mixed feelings” after Bravo announced that the original cast had been replaced by new faces for the upcoming season.
“With a deep appreciation for the original group and their iconic journey, we can’t wait for audiences to see a dynamic new group of co-workers and friends make their way through life together,” he said.
“Under the watchful eye of Lisa Vanderpump, West Hollywood mainstay SUR, and now TomTom, welcomes the next group of servers, hosts and bartenders full of drama, situations and enemies,” the statement said.
Lisa stated in the announcement: “The last 12 years of filming have been extraordinary, full of laughter, tears and everything in between. I can’t thank those who have shared their lives enough.
‘How I love you all. In the restaurant business, one shift always gives way to another. Cheers to the next generation of Vanderpump Rules,” he said.
Additionally, the show will “celebrate the last decade of heartbreak, friendship breakups and scandals with a special retrospective highlighting the past 11 seasons,” the release states.
