James Kennedy Fired: 'Vanderpump Rules' Star Booted From SUR Restaurant [VIDEO]
James Kennedy has been booted from his gig at SUR Restaurant.
In a preview clip at next week's new episode of Vanderpump Rules, Kennedy is seen working out at the gym with Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix when he reveals things haven't been going well for him at the restaurant.
"I'm in trouble... I got fired," Kennedy tells Sandoval.
"What?" Sandoval and Madix say together.
"Yeah, I got fired from SUR and PUMP," Kennedy continues.
Lisa Vanderpump, star of Vanderpump Rules and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, owns both restaurants, which are located in West Hollywood, Calif. She also owns Villa Blanca in Beverly Hills, which has been seen on episodes of both shows.
"Why?" asks Sandoval as the scene continues.
Kennedy then explains that he was drinking at SUR Restaurant when he and Jax Taylor got into a bit of a spat after it was alleged that Kennedy had cheated on his girlfriend. However, while Sandoval admits that Kennedy has done wrong in the past, he thinks it's "bullsh**" that he got fired.
"If every time Jax got me riled up I lost my sh*t and created a scene, I wouldn't have a job either," he says during a confessional.
As fans may recall, it was Jax Taylor who initially revealed the news of Kennedy's firing on Twitter.
"I hear @SurRestaurant and Pump are looking for a new DJ, apply with in. Lol," Taylor wrote in a quickly deleted tweet, via Bravo Watch.
