Scheana Shay Had Awkward Encounters With John Mayer
Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay revealed what allegedly happened when she ran into her ex-boyfriend John Mayer last year, which was incredibly awkward. So, the reality TV star's memoir, My Good Side, is out, and she's sharing the details about her romances with rather popular celebrities. Talking with People, Scheana opened up about her romance with seven-time Grammy winner John Mayer in 2008. In her memoir, Scheana shared that she met John in 2008 while working at his birthday event, when he was dating Jennifer Aniston. Scheana claims they weren't exclusive and were casually dating for six months. In the book, she also revealed that her romance with John overlapped with her relationship with Eddie Cibrian, the ex-husband of fellow Bravolebrity Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Brandi Glanville. Scheana said that her romance with John ended after one of her friends allegedly went to the tabloids about their relationship. An excerpt of the book reads, "Once it was public, he didn't want to speak to me or see me anymore," according to People. Scheana apparently ran into John recently and shared how awkward the whole situation was, and now I'm getting secondhand embarrassment. Sheana said she bumped into John at ChainFEST two years ago, a gourmet food chain festival in Los Angeles. "I saw him, and I awkwardly give him a hug, like, 'Hey, and then made a joke like, 'Oh, we should get a photo.' And he was like, 'No.' And I was like, 'I was kind of kidding.' But yeah, that was awkward," she told the publication. Scheana said she also ran into the "Waiting On the World to Change" singer again in 2024, but went about the encounter differently, yet it was still an awkward mess. "I didn't even go in for the hug," she remembered. "He went out for a handshake. I'm like, 'Well, this is awkward, too." Have you ever had a super awkward encounter with an ex? Share your stories in the comments or use this anonymous form to get really honest. We reached out to a rep for John, and we'll let you know if we hear back.

‘Fantastic Four' Box Office In Freefall, Down 80% From Last Week
While Fantastic Four: First Steps opened quite strongly in its first weekend, $117 million domestically, with a total around $257 million worldwide so far, things are taking a turn for the worse. While Fantastic Four will still take its second weekend, the movie only grossed $11.7 million on Friday, which is down a massive 80% from the previous Friday during its launch weekend. That puts it on pace to fall short of estimates and it may not even break $40 million in its follow-up weekend. It's difficult to spin this. For comparison's sake, in the same month, Superman dropped 53% from its first weekend to its second. And while Fantastic Four may outpace other recent, rather poor MCU offerings by a bit, this is far from a roaring 'we're back' warcry, despite these big names and how much they will tie into the upcoming pair of Avengers movies. It's not quite clear what happened here. The film reviewed well among critics, an 86%, and really well among fans, a 92% with 10,000 scores in, one of Marvel's highest. But as we've seen that…doesn't quite matter. Thunderbolts, the previous MCU film, was almost an identically-reviewed hit, 88% and 93%, but it was a self-admitted miss by Marvel, and one of its lowest grossers. As a result, Fantastic Four may also be trending toward the bottom tier of overall earners in the MCU. It's a little surprising. You can make excuses for a lot of past MCU failures: Fantastic Four? It's unclear. These are big, big names in Marvel. The cast was great. The movie was liked by critics and fans. Is it just…fatigue? Was Superman a factor? Everyone who cared saw it opening weekend and word-of-mouth didn't matter? Marvel is not down and out. They have just this week started ramping up hype for 2026's Spider-Man: Brand New Day, announcing cast members and roles and a first look at Tom Holland's new Spidey suit. No Way Home made almost $2 billion. This movie will not fail. But Fantastic Four? This is looking rather rough now. Follow me on Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram.

'Caddyshack' turns 45! The comedy classic's last line is one of its funniest, but 'made absolutely no sense'
How a 58-year-old movie-making novice clinched the big finish. Writers often agonize in search of the perfect words — and the last line of a comedy is a moment where they really have to stick the landing. Many cite the final zing from Some Like It Hot, "Nobody's perfect," as the ne plus ultra of screenwriting excellence. According to lore, writer-director Billy Wilder and his scripting partner I.A.L. Diamond slipped Joe E. Brown's final retort to Jack Lemmon as a placeholder until they could come up with something better. (Wilder later said they didn't trust the line at first, because it came too easily, but when they finally screened the movie, it got "one of the biggest laughs I ever heard in the theater.") Not questioning good creative fortune also served Harold Ramis, director of the madcap country club romp Caddyshack — a film that celebrates its 45th birthday today. (That's 15 years older than Bill Murray was when the movie came out, if you were curious.) The original screenplay for Caddyshack, written by Ramis, National Lampoon cofounder Douglas Kenney, and Brian Doyle-Murray (who based the story somewhat on his own memories working as a caddy), had a different ending than we now know. As Ramis explained, after Michael O'Keefe shames Ted Knight by making the game-winning putt (thanks to Bill Murray setting off explosives in pursuit of a pesky gopher), there was going to be two little wrap-up moments. Chevy Chase and Cindy Morgan were going to have a "walk off into the sunset" moment and we'd also see O'Keefe at the airport, about to leave for college, but instead following a foxy gal on a trip to Jamaica. This all got nixed because of the mad genius from Queens-born Jacob Cohen, better known to the world as Rodney Dangerfield. In 1980, Dangerfield was not really known much outside of comedy clubs. (Indeed, his own spot, Dangerfield's, opened in Manhattan in 1969.) He'd done appearances on The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson and put out an album or two, but mainstream success eluded him. (Perhaps this was to his benefit, as he used these hard workin' years to hone his "I don't get no respect" everyman schtick.) When Ramis and producer Kenney cast the 58-year-old Dangerfield, he'd never really done any acting. Yet his natural instincts took over when he inhabited the role of Al Czervik, the gauche nouveau riche real estate developer that disgusted the blue blood snobs at the stuck-up Bushwood Country Club. Dangerfield sank his teeth into the role, which was initially much smaller but expanded due to his sensational improv skills. For example, there was the ad lib that was so out of the blue that Ramis decided to make it the last line of the entire picture. As the director explained it, the celebratory sequitur "Hey, everybody, we're all gonna get laid!" was agreed upon as the closer because of the film's ethos of "why not?" "It was a totally improvised line that I can't even believe I left in the movie," he said. "It makes absolutely no sense, which at that point was pretty much par for the course." And in some social circles, there are still guys who shout this out whenever anything good or unexpected happens. Caddyshack was an international box office sensation and made Dangerfield a star. Cable specials and top-selling (and Grammy-winning) albums followed, as did leading roles in '80s classics like Easy Money and Back to School. After Dangerfield died in 2004, the neighborhood where he grew up in Queens, Kew Gardens, decided to honor him with a mural. (It's right near the spot where Kitty Genovese was murdered.) In classic form, Dangerfield's widow thought the rendering of her late husband was terrible, and complained about it. Even from the grave he gets no respect!
