Avoid the hot seat.
Tom Sandoval backed out of a previously scheduled interview with Page Six next week after the scandalous announcement of his relationship with Raquel Levis on Friday.
The “Vanderpump Rules” star, 39, is set to sit down with us next Wednesday to discuss His partnership with Hydroyxcut and other topics on his reality show alongside his co-star and business partner, Tom Schwartz.
However, a Hydroxycut spokesperson told Page Six Friday — within hours of Sandoval receiving a backlash online for allegedly cheating on his longtime girlfriend Ariana Madix — that Bravolebrity is no longer available to the press at this time.
However, the actor noted that the weight-loss company’s partnership with Sandoval “hasn’t changed” aside from “forcing her to postpone interviews.”
We’re told Hydroxycut is still in the works the lottery In March with both Sandoval and Schwartz, they will make a trip to Los Angeles to meet them at their restaurants, Tom Tom, Schwartz and Sandy, which is currently being boycotted by fans.
“The winner might get all the gossip before we do,” the stunt rep pointed out.
A Bravo spokesperson couldn’t immediately be reached for comment on whether the network made the call to stop Sandoval from pressing. However, a source tells us that it wasn’t the reality star’s decision to hold off on interviews.
An insider notes that because “production has picked up again,” Sandoval and Schwartz have “restricted schedules and are unavailable for interviews.”
Despite his limited media appearances, the love drama didn’t stop Sandoval from getting on stage with his band, Tom Sandoval and The Most Extra, Friday night.
The singer took a moment during the show to seemingly address his scandals, telling the audience, “Have you ever been one of the most hated people in America?”
Then he also replied, “We love it,” when the crowd started chanting, “Ariana!”

Page Six exclusively learned on Friday that Sandoval and Levis, 28, had an affair that “continued for months” behind Madicks’ back and that the new beau wants to “be together” now.
“Ariana is heartbroken,” said a source, adding that the “Fancy AF Cocktails” creator feels “betrayed” by the former beauty queen.
The source also said Madix, 37, was “shocked” by her longtime boyfriend’s infidelity because she had “no idea there were any problems” in their relationship.
Madix found out Sandoval was unfaithful Wednesday night after she discovered a sexually explicit video of Leviss on her ex-partner’s phone.
After the cheating was announced, Sandoval was photographed packing his bags in a friend’s car and apparently walking out of the ex-husband’s home in Los Angeles.
“Cameras are rolling” and the aim is for the aftermath of the relationship to be shown in the final episodes of season 10 of “Vanderpump Rules,” which is currently airing on Bravo, a source previously confirmed to Page Six.
