Khloé Kardashian revealed her one and only Coachella experience ended with her accidentally taking drugs after drinking something she didn’t realize was spiked, and spending hours locked in a bathroom while strangers yelled at her to get out.
The reality star, 41, shared the story on her podcast Khloé in Wonderland Wednesday after a viewer asked if she had ever attended the festival.
“I went there once, it was many moons ago,” she said. “I feel like it’s 2016 or something.”
She was careful to clarify that she did not think anyone had targeted her.
“I don’t think anyone drugged me. I just think I was the stupidest and didn’t realize everyone was on drugs. And I remember drinking that drink and feeling really crazy, no one wants to feel like that and not know why they’re like that.”
The experience was frightening and disorienting, and it quickly became clear to the people around her that something was wrong.
“I was drugged without me knowing it, but I think everyone knew,” she said.
Unable to understand what was happening, she retreated to a bathroom and stayed there for hours.
“I just didn’t realize what was happening until after it happened, like I was on drugs and everyone was yelling at me because I didn’t want to come out of the bathroom.”
She described being consumed by fear throughout. “I was in my head, I was so scared, so my experience was not good.”
Kardashian also used the podcast to reflect on her 2007 drunk driving arrest in Los Angeles at the age of 22, admitting she didn’t understand the full consequences at the time.
“I didn’t know I was going to go to jail for this, because it was my very first offense. I just can’t let my mom know, but I didn’t know my arrest would land me in jail.”
She was held in a cell for a weekend before treatment began on Monday, sharing space with 23 other women.
She finally served a few hours in jail in July 2008 for violating probation conditions, and was granted early release due to overcrowding.
