Scheana Shay’s Memoir My Good Side (with Ben Mandelker)
Chelsea invites Bravo expert and Watch What Crappens podcast host Ben Mandelker on to decide if “My Good Side: A Memoir” by “Vanderpump Rules” star Scheana Shay is a meh-moir or a wild reality TV goldmine. They unpack her reality star roots, the Hooters lawsuit that almost made her famous, and her entanglements with peak early 2000s celebs like Eddie Cibrian, John Mayer, and Jesse Metcalfe. Plus: the spark behind her marriage to Brock Davies, a quick cameo from Tyler Perry, and how Scheana turned people-pleasing into a survival strategy.
