Vanderpump Rules fans who were worried about the revamp affecting Scheana Shay are having a field day with her first comments about the potential new cast.
During the Friday, December 13, episode of her “Scheananigans” podcast, Scheana, 39, revealed the overlap between her and the new SURvers entering the show.
“So I don’t think they’ve announced who the cast is yet. I just know from still going to SUR and I am still friends with Peter [Madrigal], I talk to him often,” she explained in a clip uploaded to her Instagram. “One of the girlfriends who is one of my friends from the past, like, eight years, she is a SUR girlie.”
Scheana didn’t name the employee she’s on good terms with, adding, “I think I met her in 2016 or 2017 so she’s been there for a while. I do know that she filmed some stuff. So if I get to watch her journey, she is someone I tried to bring on the show the last several seasons that I was working at SUR.”
After being an OG cast member on Vanderpump Rules, Scheana recalled trying to pay it forward by suggesting new people to add into the mix.
“I was like, ‘She actually works here! We are actually friends!'” she noted. “I want to watch [season 12] for that. I just hope that when they announce the cast that she is for sure one of those people and she deserves it.”
Scheana’s comments section quickly filled up with people poking fun at her.
“You gotta love Scheana with this energy. 😂 of course, she’s gonna know the whole cast,” wrote one person while another added, “O mg is this the third week in a row she’s talked about the end of vpr/ new beginnings of vpr? Go find something else to talk about.”
Another follower speculated that Scheana was “planting the seed” so she can “get back” on Vanderpump Rules after Bravo overhauled the cast for season 12.
“I’m sure she’s BEST FRIENDS with everyone on the show. Lmao,” read a response, to which Shay’s sister Cortney Erin wrote back, “Why is it shocking she’s friends with people she used to work with.”
