00:00Do we think it's a flop or not?
00:03Yes.
00:04He literally walks me into Neiman Marcus,
00:06and he goes, anything you want.
00:08If that was the path to get her her own show,
00:10then I would have done it too.
00:11So good for her.
00:15Hi, I'm Denny Murphy.
00:16I'm Evan Real.
00:17And welcome back to Tea Time.
00:18And this cup of tea is good as gold,
00:19because we are here with Sheena Shea.
00:21Hey.
00:22And you're an author.
00:23Yes, an author of My Good Side.
00:25It's out. Let's cheers to that.
00:27Cheers.
00:28Are you so excited?
00:29I'm so excited.
00:30I'm so excited.
00:31I'm nervous.
00:33For now, everyone today is going to be reading it.
00:36But I'm excited.
00:37It's finally out.
00:38It's very thrilling.
00:39We also are authors in our own way,
00:40because we wrote some questions.
00:41Oh, look at you.
00:43And so Tea Time is we have fake pastries.
00:46Okay.
00:47With real questions.
00:48So don't eat.
00:49Don't eat.
00:50Got it.
00:51Let's spill some tea.
00:52Okay.
00:53Because each pastry has a question,
00:54and we're going to ask you the question,
00:55and you can either choose to answer it,
00:56have a cup of tea, or do both.
00:58Okay.
00:59Yeah.
01:00So choose your own adventure.
01:01Where should we start?
01:02Which pastry are we picking?
01:04Ooh.
01:05Let's do a macaroon.
01:07Ooh.
01:08Which color?
01:09Oh.
01:10There's something on everyone?
01:11Yes.
01:12Okay.
01:13I'm drawn to pink.
01:14Pink.
01:15Okay.
01:16In honor of the book, yes.
01:17Okay.
01:18Hit her with the pink macaroon question, Danny.
01:19Okay.
01:20Ooh.
01:21Here we go.
01:22What did we do with her?
01:24I have her in a nice glass case, and the bottom of it is in a bridal box that the dry cleaner packed in my garage in Palm Springs.
01:34I'm obsessed.
01:35It belongs at the BravoCon Museum.
01:36It does.
01:37You know?
01:38We should submit it for consideration.
01:39I swear we talked to them about that, but I don't remember what happened.
01:42Oh my god.
01:43We need it there.
01:44We miss her.
01:45I think my aunt Dee spent over a hundred hours sewing each individual pearl on.
01:50So I'm like, I'm not just going to give it away, but it should be on display in a museum.
01:55Yes.
01:56It's art.
01:57Maybe in the clubhouse.
01:58Can you imagine it just sitting behind Andy in every interview?
02:01Oh my gosh.
02:02I love that.
02:03I mean, Kristen gave the green dress, so maybe next time I'm on Watch What Happens Live,
02:06I just present him with a glass case.
02:08He needs a whole walk-in closet.
02:09That would be hysterical, and your aunt would probably love that.
02:11I know, right?
02:12Yeah.
02:13I mean, I'm never going to wear it again, and also I truly hope it never fits me again,
02:16because I was bigger then, I had a little bit more boobs.
02:19Now my child, after 13 months of pumping and breastfeeding, they're just, I'm an A.
02:24I was like, what the hell?
02:25Hey, you're an A student.
02:26I was a B.
02:27That's right.
02:28I mean, but I am an A student, so, yes.
02:30Okay.
02:31Facts.
02:32Let's pick another treat.
02:33Okay, this funky thing.
02:35Oh, okay.
02:36The Oreo, yes.
02:37All right, so we know that you really miss your friendship with Ariana.
02:41When was the last time you talked to Ariana, and what was it about?
02:44Probably when I texted her happy birthday, so June 24th.
02:47Okay.
02:48All right.
02:49Okay, so sort of recent-ish.
02:51Yeah.
02:52It was happy birthday, and then thank you.
02:54Okay.
02:55So cordial.
02:56Almost a haiku.
02:57Yeah.
02:58A few heart emojis, a few party emojis.
03:00I think maybe I blew some confetti to her.
03:02Okay.
03:03Okay, we got a thank you.
03:04Yeah.
03:05Did you get a happy birthday text?
03:06I did.
03:07Okay, okay.
03:08Yes, and I invited her to my party.
03:09I believe she was here, though, at the time.
03:11Oh.
03:12I don't know if she would have come, but she was here.
03:14She was here, yes.
03:15So easy out.
03:16All right.
03:17Okay.
03:18Let's go with these raspberries.
03:19There were a lot of Jesses mentioned.
03:20Mm-hmm.
03:21And we're not talking about Jessie Lally.
03:23We're talking about Metcalf and McCartney.
03:25Uh-huh.
03:26Which one, if we had to pick one, a little bit more fun?
03:29Metcalf, for sure.
03:30Really?
03:31Okay.
03:32Why Metcalf over McCartney?
03:33I mean, he's a dreamboat, you know?
03:36Yeah.
03:37So, I'm, you don't have to tell him I said that.
03:38Yeah.
03:39Oh.
03:40But I think I kind of say it in the book, you know?
03:41He is a dreamboat.
03:42No, he totally was, and is.
03:45And we just had a really good time together.
03:48It was short-lived, but I mean, I have vivid memories of him getting his guitar and singing
03:53Hey There Delilah.
03:54Wow.
03:55Taking me shopping for my birthday.
03:57Literally walks me into Neiman Marcus and he goes, anything you want.
04:00Like, money is not an option.
04:02I'm like, I really want that Louis Vuitton bag, but.
04:04Wait, what'd you end up getting yourself?
04:05I just got a pair of Marc Jacobs sunglasses.
04:07Okay.
04:08And I still have them.
04:09Wow.
04:10To this day.
04:11I don't lose sunglasses.
04:12I have far too many because I just keep getting more.
04:15Oh.
04:16That's amazing.
04:17But, okay, so what was the vibe with McCartney though?
04:18Like, was he a good time?
04:19Was he fun?
04:20He was a good time.
04:21It was fun.
04:22We were both Chargers fans.
04:23Okay.
04:24And so it was like football and hookup and it was just, it was fun.
04:29Like, we would go to clubs together.
04:31I was friends with his friends.
04:32He was friends with mine.
04:33Vegas.
04:34And we were neighbors.
04:35So it was very convenient.
04:36Okay.
04:37But I gotta say, a Neiman Marcus trip would put someone to the top for me.
04:41That would put a crescent up.
04:42Yeah.
04:43Oh, I love that.
04:44Okay.
04:45Where are we going next?
04:46Let's do a purple macaroon.
04:47Ooh.
04:48Okay.
04:49How do you honestly think that the new VPR cast will stack up to the OGs?
04:54And have you heard anything about any of the new servers?
04:57We know you're friends with a few of them.
04:58Yes.
04:59Yeah.
05:00I've gotten some tea.
05:01I mean, they have huge shoes to fill.
05:04Like, bigger than the shoes Brock wears.
05:05Okay.
05:06So, I don't know that it'll be the same.
05:09You know, I think you can try and recreate it and see if, what's that saying?
05:14You get lightning in a bottle.
05:15Lightning in a bottle.
05:16Yep.
05:17Yeah.
05:18But, no, I don't think it'll be the same.
05:20But I'm looking forward to it.
05:21You know, I do know a couple of them.
05:23One of the other people on the show didn't say nice things about me on a podcast once.
05:28So, I will not be watching for them.
05:30Really?
05:31But, yeah.
05:32Damn.
05:33Okay.
05:34I'm like, you don't even know me.
05:35I was gonna say, wait, what were they on a podcast even doing?
05:37Just saying how, like, I'm their least favorite.
05:39Oh.
05:40Well, you're Lady Gaga's favorite, so.
05:42Yeah.
05:43Exactly.
05:44Screw them.
05:45Well, you're my least favorite.
05:47Okay.
05:48Where are we off to now?
05:49I gotta do the blue macaroon because it matches me.
05:51Oh, I know.
05:52I love this fit.
05:53Okay.
05:54And I love this question.
05:55What is your honest reaction to Jax's departure from the Valley, and do you think it was truly
05:59his choice?
06:00Well, he said it was.
06:01So, if he says it was, then it is true.
06:02That's what he said, okay.
06:03Of course.
06:04Of course.
06:05But.
06:06And he always tells the truth.
06:07Absolutely.
06:08He's a known trooper.
06:09Always.
06:10I think, regardless of whose decision it was not coming back, it was the right decision,
06:13I think that he really does need to focus on his mental health and his sobriety right
06:17now.
06:18And he just, he needs to be the best version of himself so he can be the best dad to Cruz and the best
06:22co-parent to Brittany.
06:24So, who's ever decision it was walking away, I think it was the correct decision.
06:28I think it was a mature decision.
06:29And I wish him the best.
06:31You know, that's Cruz's daddy.
06:32So.
06:33Yeah.
06:34And I hope that the time away kind of gets him into a better headspace and everything.
06:36Yeah.
06:37I think the second stint at rehab did good for him.
06:40And from what I've heard and what I know, he has been sober since.
06:44Okay.
06:45That's good.
06:46Okay, great.
06:47All right.
06:48Snaps for Jax.
06:49We're talking about the Valley.
06:50Even Lala is.
06:51Oh, God.
06:52What are your thoughts about how Lala is having thoughts on the Valley?
06:54When I was like.
06:55Wait, what did she say?
06:56She kind of like dragged them, right?
06:57On a hot day.
06:58I thought she did.
06:59Wait, what?
07:00I know.
07:01We got to look that up.
07:02Yeah.
07:03Yeah.
07:04This is like some breaking news to me.
07:05I didn't realize, but apparently she was in.
07:06I mean, she's dragging Jessie.
07:07Sure.
07:08But.
07:09Maybe just dragging Jessie.
07:10Yeah.
07:11Nine times out of ten.
07:12Do you and Lala, because you were in on the Valley a little bit this season.
07:16Do you both talk like how it would just make perfect sense for you guys to be on it?
07:21Yes and no.
07:22Okay.
07:23I mean, this is definitely my group of friends.
07:26She's friends with some of the cast.
07:28We both live in the Valley.
07:29Yeah.
07:30So it's like, it does make sense as a next step, but is it the right step?
07:34I mean, we will see.
07:36Okay.
07:37All right.
07:38Well, let's see what pastry you choose next.
07:39Let's go down here.
07:40Let's grab this sugary guy.
07:42Brock came clean about his cheating to you during the height of Scandaval, and you chose
07:45to keep that under wraps to protect your marriage, to protect your daughter.
07:48But how do you think seasons ten and eleven would have been different if you had come
07:52forward about it?
07:53I didn't know season ten.
07:54Okay.
07:55So this would have just been a season eleven issue.
07:57Correct.
07:58Okay.
07:59Yeah.
08:00I found out after Scandaval.
08:02It was whenever Easter was, 2023.
08:05So very shortly after.
08:06That was the day he told me.
08:08Yeah.
08:09It was like a month and a half or something.
08:10A few weeks after.
08:11Yeah.
08:12And then we had Coachella.
08:13And then I had Watch What Happens Live.
08:14And it was just, it was so much.
08:16Yeah.
08:17Still parenting a barely, almost two year old.
08:20She wasn't even two yet.
08:21Yeah.
08:22Having to get through her second birthday and just, I just went into survival mode and I
08:28was like, you know what?
08:29I'm gonna do everything I can to work towards a path of forgiveness because I see what an
08:36incredible partner you are to me.
08:37I know you have deep regret for many things in your life.
08:41Yeah.
08:42And he's been such an incredible dad to Summer.
08:47So I wanted to give it a shot and not just do what I always said I would do and that's
08:52if I was ever cheated on.
08:53Like, I'm out.
08:54I'm done.
08:55Doesn't matter why, what, when, where, how, who.
08:58But it's not so cut and dry.
09:00No.
09:01And especially when there is a kid involved.
09:02It made me take a step back and see if I was strong enough to forgive him.
09:06No.
09:07Yeah.
09:08Do you think that talking about it on camera would have made filming even more difficult
09:11for you?
09:12Because season 11 was a tough one for you.
09:13Yeah.
09:14I don't think our marriage would have survived.
09:15Honestly, we were not in a good place.
09:17We were struggling just to film a scene at a bikini store together.
09:22And then it was like, well, your mom this.
09:24And I'm like, oh, do I really want to see motherfucker?
09:26Yeah.
09:27But I couldn't.
09:28That's restrained.
09:29Because it was so much misplaced anger and tears and frustration.
09:32Oh.
09:33And I was just, like, screaming.
09:35But I couldn't say why I was really screaming.
09:37Because I'm like, once I put it out there, it's out there, the world will hit you.
09:41And I don't want that.
09:42Wow.
09:43Like, people were just starting to come around to him.
09:45Yeah.
09:46Finally getting more of our story.
09:47Seeing Brock the Builder, well, Brock the Builder didn't exist yet.
09:51But just, like, Brock the Dad to Summer and whatnot.
09:53Yeah.
09:54And I was like, it's not the time to tell our story.
09:57If there is a time, I know it's not now.
10:00Yeah.
10:01Well, and now's the time.
10:02My good side.
10:03My good side, yes.
10:04It was either going to be season 12 or the book.
10:05And if we were on the regular timeline of the show, season 12 would have been filmed
10:10and airing by now, as the Valley is.
10:13Ah.
10:14So, if it was going to be on the show, then it needs to be in the book.
10:16Yeah.
10:17But then they rebooted the show, so now just the book got it.
10:20You're like, and enjoy the person who just talked about you on a podcast.
10:22Yeah.
10:23Hope they're entertaining because you got story.
10:24Exactly.
10:25All right.
10:26I think we have time for one more question.
10:28Oh, gosh.
10:29What pastry are we going to pick?
10:30Let's see.
10:31What's this hiding over here?
10:32It's cute.
10:33A little flower.
10:34Okay.
10:35A little flower because LVP has a lot to say about her cast members.
10:38She's already sipping the tea.
10:39But she has a little Vanderpump villa where she's front and center-ish on it.
10:45Mm-hmm.
10:46What do we think about Vanderpump Villa?
10:47Do we think it's a flop or not?
10:49Yes.
10:50Oh!
10:51I mean, I don't watch it, so the only two episodes I've seen, I watched the season one finale
10:57because Marciano and Hannah came over to my house after, and so I wanted to watch that.
11:01Yeah.
11:02And then I watched the two episodes this season that Demi and Jessie and The Mormon Wives
11:05were on.
11:06Yes, we love The Mormon Wives.
11:07But I just wasn't invested past that.
11:09What are your thoughts about Stassi being on it now?
11:11I mean, it made sense because, you know, she had a development deal with Hulu, and so
11:16trying to get her own show, I feel like that was kind of a part of the deal.
11:20Oh, okay.
11:21So, I get it, but it was kind of shocking to me because she said she would never come
11:26back to Vanderpump Rules because she didn't want to have to have a conversation with Lisa.
11:30Hmm.
11:31Huh.
11:32And then a few months later, she's like going to Italy.
11:34Getting her passport stamped.
11:35I could be the lady of the castle.
11:38No.
11:39That's me.
11:40You know, if that was the path to get her her own show, then I would have done it, too.
11:44So, good for her.
11:45I love it.
11:46Now, before we let you go for real, because you know I love Sheena the reality star, Sheena
11:49the author, but I really love Sheena the pop star.
11:52I'm a big fan of Good Is Golden, all of your musical offerings that you have put out into
11:56the world.
11:57So, I want to get your expert pop star opinion.
11:59Okay.
12:00Can you rank these Housewife singles from your favorite to least favorite?
12:03Ooh, okay.
12:04On display by Melissa Gorga, Tardy for the Party by Kim Zolciak, and Money Can't Buy You Class by Countess
12:09to win.
12:10It's going to go in that order.
12:11That order?
12:12Okay.
12:13So, Melissa, Kim, Countess.
12:14Do you know what?
12:15I agree.
12:16Yeah.
12:17I also wrote this question, so I think I, like, accidentally wrote my vote in this
12:19photo.
12:20My favorite thing, too.
12:21Yeah.
12:22Yes.
12:23Melissa is so iconic.
12:24Sheena is so iconic.
12:25My good side, so iconic.
12:27Congratulations.
12:28This was so much fun.
12:30It was so much fun.
12:31Cheers to you.
12:32Congrats.
12:33We're so proud.
12:34This was amazing.
12:35And thank you all for watching.
12:36Stay tuned for next Tea Time.
