They’re not good as gold.
Scheana Shay wants “Vanderpump Rules” fans to tune in to the next season before they jump to conclusions about where the cast stands with co-star and infamous cheater Tom Sandoval.
A fan account shared a photo on Instagram Friday of Lala Kent giving the TomTom co-owner a hug during a recent beach outing and captioned it, “No comment.”
One disappointed viewer wrote, “Their [sic] losing us and their [sic] gaslighting us, made us crazy with their [sic] commentating of Scandavol and now we (the fans) look crazy whilst here is Lala just sleeping with the enemy .”
Another agreed, “I feel like fans, who’ve been loyal for years, have been played. We gave them more money, more views, more engagement then [sic] they ever had because of how distraught the situation was.
“It’s okay to forgive/be in the same space/have to work, but this looks absolutely ridiculous.”

Shay, 38, then chimed in, “All these people saying they aren’t gonna watch the season from photos that have been coming out… like come on!”
The “Good As Gold” singer added, “How about you WATCH the damn show and see HOW all these photos happened! NO one knows what’s actually happening in this group right now other than US!”
She then insisted, “Nothing is fake in this group and people are definitely paying for their actions.”

Since the cast has started filming again for Season 11 this summer, several behind-the-scenes pics have leaked online, showcasing the different dynamics between the friend group.
In one of the earlier sightings, Shay and co-star Tom Schwartz were slammed for appearing too chummy with Sandoval, 41, during a cast trip to Lake Tahoe, Calif., — despite him cheating on fan-favorite Ariana Madix with Raquel Leviss the season prior.
However, Shay quickly cleared up any speculation that she had forgiven the Tom Sandoval & the Most Extras frontman, “Who said all is forgiven?? … “We are all here for Lisa [Vanderpump].”

Madix was in a nearly 10 year relationship with Sandoval and they lived together.
The Bravo stars reportedly flew out to the scenic city together to celebrate the opening of their former SUR boss’ latest restaurant, Wolf.
Kent, 32, then also backed Shay, saying via an Instagram Story, “It, like, still blows my mind that people don’t realize we’re still filming a show.”
Madix, 38, whom perhaps fan expected to be peeved with her BFF for posing for a pic with her cheating ex, also defended Shay and said that the “Scheananigans with Scheana Shay” podcaster was “an amazing friend who took a photo with a fan for their birthday.”

However, Shay’s behavior has not made the Something About Her sandwich shop owner want to get any closer or reconcile with Sandoval.
Madix was seen in other paparazzi shots filming for the new season of “Pump Rules” in the same location as her ex-boyfriend, but the pair strategically kept their distance from one another.
Meanwhile, Leviss, 28, has not returned to the show amid “hardball” contract negotiations with Bravo and instead was seen hanging out at a massage spa in Arizona earlier this week.
