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."

Jason Momoa believes it's his 'destiny' to tell the story of Hawaii
Jason Momoa believes it's his "destiny" to tell the story of Hawaii. The Aquaman star explores his Hawaiian heritage in new Apple TV+ series Chief of War - which tells the story of the unification of the islands at the turn of the 18th century - and he is convinced the stars have aligned to bring him to a place in his career where he could show the lives of his ancestors onscreen. He told PEOPLE: "I feel like this whole thing has chosen me in a way, like this is my destiny," he says. "I have no idea how I got to all this, but we're here, and I'm very grateful. I'm living my dream doing what I love to do. To play my ancestors is such a responsibility. It's scary and exciting." Jason added: "My dad is a coach at an outrigger canoe club, which is where I learned how to surf. "Just this morning, the sand pulled back and revealed massive petroglyphs [ancient carvings] right in the place where I grew up. It's kind of insane. I've never experienced that before." The actor also got the chance to write and direct while working on the show and he has insisted he's finally get the chance to show a different side to himself. He told the Metro newspaper: "It's my heart and soul. This has been in me my whole life. I'm ready. Put it on me. " I feel like I've been mismanaged and people don't really know who I am, since the beginning, so now I finally get a chance to [show] 'No, I can direct and write'." Jason went on to applaud bosses at Apple for taking a chance on a show about Hawaii's history, adding: "It's a bold thing to do. "I think Apple had a lot of trust in us, because there's nothing to prove it against. No one's ever heard the language. There's a lot of actors that have never been seen before. It's a lot ... "There's a lot of change and a lot to bring back of a culture that was … Our language is banned from us and we're getting it back. A lot of our art … We're part of America and I don't think anyone really knows anything about us. "[We] really have to celebrate Apple for just taking on something that's this big, and putting the trust in me ... "

Dwayne ‘The Rock' Johnson reveals dramatic new look thanks to a special makeover from his daughters
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has debuted a dramatic new look following a special makeover. On Tuesday, the pro-wrestler turned actor shared a video on Instagram of his girls Jasmine, 9, and Tiana, 7, giving him the ultimate beauty treatment. In the sweet behind-the-scenes footage, the 53-year-old father — who is married to singer/songwriter Lauren Hashian — sits patiently while his daughters plaster his face with blush, eyeshadow and lip gloss. The footage is set to Simon & Garfunkel's song, The Sound of Silence, and reveals his daughters working their magic. 'I've learned over time that you look back on life's decisions and say ... That was a good idea. That was a great idea. Or… What the %#$@ was I thinking??' Johnson captioned the hilarious footage. 'And it's proving to be a good thing that I have a very large head with A LOT of 'canvas' to use for these little chickens' enjoyment and artistic make-over endeavors.'Our little ones are only little once, so bring it on ladies — daddy is fearless.' As well as his youngest two girls, Johnson has a third daughter, Simone, 23, from his previous marriage. While the Hollywood actor often plays masculine, action-hero characters on screen, Johnson isn't afraid to show off his softer side. The Fast and the Furious star often shares pictures of him spending time with his family and is proud to hold the title of 'ultimate girl-dad'. Whether it's dance parties in the kitchen, heartfelt birthday tributes or red carpet cuddles, Johnson never shies away from expressing his deep devotion to his family. 'You can be wired, as a lot of fathers are, to fix things,' Johnson told PEOPLE. 'Just having an expanded capacity to listen and be more tender and gentle really gave me that ability to solve whatever the issue is, but with them compared to for them.' At home, Johnson reveals his youngest two 'are tornadoes and very passionate about how they feel'. 'Lauren and I like raising them in an environment and a culture where there are no limits to life,' Johnson said. 'You can do anything you want, and you can achieve anything you want. However, I need you to be flexible with how we get there.'

Cameron intends to direct fourth, 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, Cameron 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." Cameron 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 in 2009.
