Scheana Shay recalls 'awkward' run-in with John Mayer
The 40-year-old star dated John, 47, back in 2008, and they came face-to-face with each other at ChainFEST, a gourmet food chain festival in Los Angeles, two years ago.
The reality star told People: "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."
The celebrity duo actually came face-to-face for a second time at the same event in 2024, and Scheana decided to change her approach.
She said: "I didn't even go in for the hug. He went out for a handshake. I'm like, 'Well, this is awkward, too."
Meanwhile, Scheana recently confessed that she didn't know if she was "strong enough" to overcome her husband's infidelity.
The reality star revealed that Brock Davies cheated on her while she was pregnant with their now four-year-old daughter, Summer Moon - but Scheana explained why she chose to remain tight-lipped about his infidelity.
She said on the Scheananigans podcast: "At that time, I wasn't ready to talk about this. I certainly don't think you were ready to talk about this. I don't know that our marriage would have survived if we did talk about it that season. I felt like we were still very much in the middle of processing it privately."
Scheana wanted to process the situation before she spoke about it publicly.
She explained: "I wasn't about to start unraveling all of this on camera before I had even processed what it meant for our marriage, for our daughter, for our entire life."
Scheana and Brock ultimately managed to overcome his infidelity, and she now has no regrets about keeping the situation to herself.
She said: "I didn't know if I was going to be strong enough to stay.
"It can be easier to just walk away after a betrayal, and hands are clean and be done. So sure, I could have disclosed it then, but I would have been speaking from a place of extreme confusion, pain, fear, [and] not clarity of any sort.
"I just wasn't ready. And I think I've learned the hard way, once you say something on camera, it's out there forever."

Nick Cannon: 'Bre Tiesi is an amazing mom and amazing businesswoman'
Nick Cannon says Bre Tiesi is an 'an amazing mom and amazing businesswoman'. The 44-year-old father-of-12 shares son Legendary Love, three, with the Selling Sunset star and Nick is proud of how she has handled herself on the Netflix reality TV show. He told PEOPLE: 'She's built for this. She's a rockstar. She's a superstar. She's an amazing mom, amazing businesswoman and truly like a boss.' 'I mean when you see her on Selling Sunset and even how she moves on her own, you know, it's content, [but] it's not a façade. She don't need [advice], I need to get some advice from her.' Nick shares his 12 children with six different women, including Bre, 34, and his former wife Mariah Carey, 56, and his and Bre's unconventional relationship has caused some issues with her castmates on Selling Sunset. Her co-star Chelsea Lazkani said on season six: 'I find Nick Cannon and Bre's relationship rather off-putting. Ultimately the way I live my life is very different to her as a Christian, so I don't know if we will ever be super, super close friends." Chelsea also told Entertainment Tonight: 'I think she wants to kill me, and I want to stay alive for a very long time. So, you know, I just think I'll keep my distance from her. 'I mean, I get it. She doesn't like me. And some of the things I said were very hurtful. So, I completely acknowledge that.' Bre previously told PEOPLE: 'You know, as I said on the show, I'm perfectly fine in a room with a bunch of b****** that hate me. I could not care less. It seems more like a you problem, to be honest."

James Cameron intends to direct the fourth and fifth Avatar movies
James Cameron is "good to go" when it comes to directing Avatar 4 and Avatar 5. The 70-year-old filmmaker has helmed the third movie in the epic sci-fi franchise Avatar: Fire and Ash – which will be released in December – and plans to be behind the camera for the next two pictures, which are scheduled to hit cinemas in 2029 and 2031 respectively. Speaking to Empire magazine, James said: "I mean, there's no reason not to. "I'm healthy, I'm good to go. I'm not going to rule it out. I mean, I've got to make it in a vigorous way, to handle the kind of volume and energy of the work for another six or seven years. You know what I mean? I might not be able to do that... (but) if I can, I'll just do it." The Titanic director pointed out that he has passed on his planned movies to other filmmakers in the past – as he gave the 2019 flick Alita: Battle Angel to Robert Rodriguez but remained closely involved with the picture's production. Cameron said of Rodriguez: "He honoured what I had written. We worked very collaboratively." The acclaimed filmmaker previously revealed that he does not plan to helm the sixth and seventh Avatar films, even though he does have stories in mind for them. He told People magazine: "We're fully written through movie five, and I've got ideas for six and seven, although I'll probably be handing the baton on at that point. "Mortality catches up. But I mean, we're enjoying what we're doing. We're loving it. We get to work with great people." James revealed earlier this year that he feels "pretty good" about Avatar: Fire and Ash after being thrilled by the feedback when he screened the movie for "a few selected people". The Terminator director told Stuff: "I've shown it to a few selected people and the feedback has been ... it's definitely the most emotional and maybe the best of the three so far. "We'll find out, you know, but I feel pretty good about it." The new movie features a cast that includes Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana and Sigourney Weaver and Cameron was very impressed with the efforts of the stars. He said: "The work is exceptional from the actors. It's pretty heart-wrenching in a good way." The original Avatar film became the highest-grossing movie of all time when it was released back in 2009 and Cameron admitted that he was hesitant to make sequels as he didn't want to spoil what he had achieved. The director said: "I had to think long and hard whether I even wanted to make another Avatar film, because it was kind of ours to lose. "When you've done something that's been that transcendent in terms of success, do you really want to go try and do that again? There's a lot of pressure on it. I thought about it for a good two years before we finally made a deal."

Natasha Richardson's friend Andy Cohen shares thoughts on widow Liam Neeson dating Pamela Anderson
Natasha Richardson's friend Andy Cohen has given her widow Liam Neeson the seal of approval after he grew close to Pamela Anderson. Liam, 73, and his Naked Gun co-star Pamela, 58, have circled around the speculation that they are couple, insisting they simply had great "chemistry" on set. However, should they be an item, Andy would be thrilled for Liam because the former Playboy Bunny shares similar qualities to the late Parent Trap star - who tragically died in 2009, at the age of 45, following a skiing accident in Canada. Speaking on his SiriusXM radio show where the pair were guests, he said: 'Natasha was a dear friend of mine and I'm gonna tell you something. I and all of the friends in this circle are very much stanning whatever this is. 'As I was telling him at the premiere party, I go, 'Liam, she is an independent woman just like Tash was. She loves to cook. She has her own thing going on. She has two boys.'' Andy insists "this just works" as Pamela has been through a lot with her sex tape scandal and whirlwind marriage to ex-husband Tommy Lee - with whom she has sons Brandon, 29, and Dylan, 27 - and managed to reinvent her career. He added: 'I mean, this just works, and you know, she is a formidable human being, Pamela Anderson. She really is. What she's been through and how she kind of reclaimed herself and redefined herself." The Love Actually star has two sons, Micheál, 30, and Daniel, 28, with late wife Natasha. He previously confessed to being 'madly in love' with Pamela as he gushed about working with her. He told PEOPLE: 'With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with. I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She's funny and so easy to work with.'
