'Vanderpump Rules' Constantly Shows Scheana Against Everyone

Scheana Shay was introduced to the world in 2013 as an up-and-coming actress and singer who worked at Lisa Vanderpump restaurant, SUR, but also someone who connected to the world of RHOBA. 

During the first season of VPR, Scheana was the talk of the town because of the case she was involved in. Brandi Glanville's then-husband, Eddie Cirian. Scheana “unconsciously” became involved with Eddie during his marriage to Brandi, which had many repercussions for her during her first season of Vanderpump Rules.

Many actors, like Stassi Schroeder, Katie Maloney, and Kristen Doute, became Scheana's enemies because they didn't like what she did at Brandi's wedding and their personalities didn't initially mesh. . Everything pointed to VPR becoming a war between Scheana against everyone. But viewers quickly became interested in the other actors. There were more compelling stories, as Scheana's storyline aged, to focus on.

Scheana's victim card got old fast

Vanderpump Rules is a show that thrives on drama and different group dynamics. Each cast member experienced something that won over the audience and became a bigger topic of discussion, especially about how men behave on the show. Scheana has lost viewers' interest because she tends to play the victim in most storylines.

Although she has been through quite a few ups and downs, including two marriages and a divorce, Scheana's storylines are considered by many to be boring and repetitive. One of the most notable instances in which she shows her true “girl to guy” stance is with “Scandoval”.

Not only did Scheana insert herself into unnecessary drama, but with “Scandoval,” Scheana used this as a source of big money by re-releasing her single “Good as Gold.” and have the opportunity to be a jingle for Uber Eats.

It's not just about Scheana

When the news broke about Tom's cheating on Ariana, the world went into a frenzy and that was all everyone could talk about. The scandal boosted Vanderpump Rules' ratings, even earning an Emmy nomination. If anyone should be credited for the show's success as of late, it's Tom, Ariana, and Rachel.

Vanderpump Rules back with two key players missing (II)

 (continuation from the previous post)

Vanderpump Rules returned last week for its first outing since the Scandoval affair brought its cast out of the confines of Bravo and onto the pages of The New York Times.

While the episode ends with the image of Sandoval's car stopping in front of the house he still shares with Ariana, he and Raquel are missing, leaving a wound gaping that the rest of the cast has no choice but to talk about.

Even though these characters don't want to be defined by Tom and Raquel's actions, the pain is clearly too fresh for them to move past it, at least this quickly. Ariana is obviously the most hurt, continuing to ice Schwartz after a Watch What Happens Live segment where he encouraged people to give Sandoval a hug if they saw him because he could use one (come on, man) . Towards the end of the episode, Lala, having apparently taken an off-screen maturity potion or something, decides that she doesn't want Scandoval's mistake to define the rest of Raquel's life and tries to tend hand to clarify things. Ariana doesn't like hearing this when she finds out, but it mostly sparks a conversation about how sensitive they both actually are. (Katie Maloney is also there and is in a lot of this episode, but doesn't do much. Sorry Katie!)

Given the frustration built up in the few months between the affair being announced and Pump Rules starting filming its 11th season, all on the slopes. It would be weird for them not to talk about that. But Sandoval now has his apology tour planned, although it will more likely be a righteous outrage tour based on his reunion performance and everything about his personality. As a fellow human being, but as a consumer of reality TV, thank goodness for that.

Vanderpump Rules' Ariana Madix Explains Why She Didn't Kick Tom Sandoval Out of Their House

Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval ended their nine-year relationship over a cheating scandal, and their house is the only thing they have in common to part with.

On Vanderpump Rules, Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval had the strongest relationship in the cast.

But when Tom was caught having a seven-month affair with Ariana's friend Raquel Leviss, everything fell apart.

The Vanderpump Rules couple never planned to get married or have children and are content to just be long-term partners.

However, this could have been a sign that Tom and Ariana's relationship wasn't meant to last after all.

Ariana says she countered Tom Sandoval's 'garbage' buyout offer

In Peacock's exclusive clip from  Vanderpump Rules Season 11 posted to Instagram, she explains her current living situation with Tom and why neither of them have moved out yet.

“But what I find psychotic is that he wants to buy me out and stay here,” Ariana told Katie Maloney, who told her to “go buy something else” with the money.
