Khloé Kardashian Nisha Johny/Disney via Getty Images Khloé Kardashian does not have fond memories of attending Coachella. On the latest episode of her podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land, the reality TV revealed why she hasn’t been to the California music festival in over a decade.
In the episode, Kardashian responded to a fan question asking, “Have you ever been to Coachella?” Kardashian confirmed that she has “gone once.”
“It was many moons ago,” she recalled. “I feel like 2016 or something like that. It wasn’t the best experience. I got drugged without me knowing, but I think everyone knew. There was this juice at this party we were at. I don’t think anyone drugged me. I just think I was the dumb one and didn’t realize everyone was on drugs.”
She added, “I remember drinking this drink and just feeling really crazy. No one wants to feel like that and not know why they’re like that. I remember locking myself in a bathroom for hours. And I just didn’t realize what was happening until after it happened, that I was on drugs and everyone was yelling at me because I wouldn’t get out of the bathroom. But I got scared. I was in my head. I was so scared. So my experience was not good.”
Although Kardashian has not returned to the festival, her sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner attended this year to watch Justin Bieber‘s headlining performance.
Elsewhere on the podcast, Kardashian reflected on being arrested in 2007 for a DUI. A fan wrote in asking if it was true that Kardashian’s friend Malika Haqq did her hair for her mugshot. She explained that “the first time I got arrested when I had my DUI that was obviously really scary.” She added, “I didn’t know I was going to go to jail because it was my very first offense.”
