There’s a bit of a feud brewing between reality TV and Hollywood! Jax Taylor, from the show Vanderpump Rules, says actor James Van Der Beek wasn’t very friendly to his friend Tom Schwartz at a recent fan convention.
Here’s the scoop: according to Jax, Tom is a huge fan of James, especially from his role in the movie Varsity Blues. So much so, that Tom went to a convention specifically to meet James and even brought a jersey from the movie!
Jax says Tom was really excited to meet his idol, but things didn’t go as planned. Jax claims James wasn’t very nice when Tom went to introduce himself. While Tom downplays it a bit, saying the autograph session itself was okay, Jax feels James could have been more friendly.
Reality Show Drama Comes to Life
This whole situation came to light on Jax’s podcast with his (estranged) wife Brittany Cartwright. Jax shared the story and expressed his disappointment in James’ behavior. It’s no surprise this is getting attention, considering Jax is known for stirring up drama on his reality show.
What Exactly Happened?
We don’t know James’ side of the story yet. Maybe he was having a bad day, or perhaps the interaction wasn’t quite as dramatic as Jax makes it out to be. It’s important to remember that Jax loves being in the spotlight and this could be a way for him to get some attention.

Even though things seem to be tense right now, it’s possible this is all just a misunderstanding. Maybe James was simply busy or not feeling well. Fans will likely have to wait and see if James responds to the accusations.
What Does This Mean for the Fans?
For fans of both James and Tom, this situation might be a bit of a bummer. It’s never nice to see someone disappointed meeting their favorite celebrity. But hey, that’s the world of celebrities – sometimes they have bad days too!
More Than Just a Reality Show Story

Next time you meet your favorite celebrity, remember to be respectful. And for celebrities, remember that even a small interaction can have a big impact on a fan.
