VPR Star Says Jax Taylor Doesn’t Want Her on ‘The Valley’ Because She’ll Call Him Out

“Vanderpump Rules” star Scheana Shay thinks her former castmate Jax Taylor is worried she will confront him.

During the May 24 episode of her podcast, “Scheananigans with Scheana Shay,” Shay reacted to Taylor saying he did not believe she or Lala Kent should star in the “Vanderpump Rules” spin-off series, “The Valley.” As fans are aware, Taylor, his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, and Kristen Doute are past “Vanderpump Rules” cast members who now film for “The Valley.”

Shay stated that she believed Taylor was afraid she and Kent would confront him for his behavior if they were full-time “Valley” stars.

“I also saw that for the second time on his podcast, he has said that he does not want me or Lala to join ‘The Valley.’ Because it would be disrespectful to the current cast. And, like, no one wants us,” said Shay. “I’m like, ‘Actually Jax, I just think you don’t want us. If we did a poll, these are all our friends [on ‘The Valley’]. You are afraid of me and Lala being on the show because we’re going to call you out for the [expletive] we actually know.’”

According to Shay, Taylor and Cartwright originally wanted her and her husband, Brock Davies, to star in “The Valley.” She stated she thinks Taylor changed his tune because they are not currently on good terms.

“But now that we are in a little bit of, ‘You blocked me on Instagram’ phase. It’s like ‘We don’t want Scheana. Because it’s disrespectful to the cast,'” said Shay.
