Scheana Shay and Ariana Madix are both tackling rumors running rampant in the Vanderpump Rules universe.
The first of two reports by celebrity gossip account Deuxmoi was allegedly about Shay, 39.
“I just received a blind item on Sunday, which is clearly about her because the pseudonym is good as gold. And this anonymous tipster wrote in a certain reality star known for not being able to make a first does not tip,” Deuxmoi said on the Tuesday, November 13, episode of the “Deux/U by Deuxmoi” podcast. “For someone whose reality TV show is centered around the service industry, they certainly don’t know proper tipping etiquette.”
The blind item continued: “I’ve helped them with a few skinny margaritas at numerous Chargers games and have been stiffed every time. I have also helped her costar who wasn’t really sure what they did to me, but had a pinot grigio who tipped 50 percent.”
Guest host Thea de Sousa said it was hard to believe that Shay, a frequent attender of Chargers games who can seemingly be identified by the use of “Good As Gold,” a Shay single, wasn’t generous with her tips. (The second costar mentioned is likely Stassi Schroeder who once infamously told Shay, “I’m not really sure what I’ve done to you but I’ll take a pinot grigio during season 3.)
“I’m surprised because at the first …BravoCon in New York, not this past BravoCon, but the one before, actually hung out with Scheana and Brock [Davies] at a bar. I don’t remember if she tipped or not, but I do remember her being really, really overly nice to the servers,” Sousa recalled. “At least she’s nice. If she doesn’t leave money at the end, then probably not liking her as much. But during the whole time we were there, she seemed so friendly to them.”
Shay left a response to the claims, writing via Instagram, “That’s interesting bc the first time I’ve ever even ordered a margarita at a game was last week and we tipped $50 at the open bar 🧐.”
