Sammy Younai was the original cast member on Shahs of Sunset. He was literally the first person that the producers called. So it was really odd when he was let go after the first season. Granted he treated MJ like crap, encouraged her to get really drunk, put her in comprising situations and came off as a chauvinist pig but Reza exhibited a lot of the same behaviors eventually.
When it comes to TMZ I have learned to pay close attention to the reasons for their articles being posted when they are. Their sources also have motivations for speaking to them. Often times the real housewife of wherever is the actual source. That was certainly the case in their continued misreporting of Phaedra’s divorce. Phaedra writes that narrative. And if Phaedra called me up and told me she was divorced from Apollo, I’d probably report it. Because who lies about being divorced? Sidenote, Phaedra is divorced now, I read the court papers last week. That is why she is selling the house now. She can divide the marital assets.

Anyway, TMZ is running a story today about Sammy that says, “Sammy was recently dating a woman who wanted rough sex. He emphatically shut it down unless she agreed to put something in writing to protect him from sexual assault claims.”
FUN FACT: Sammy got married in June 2016. He gave interviews indicating that he was ready to start a family. The TMZ story is very ambiguous on the timing of this sex contract. Click the link to read the entire story. But the shorter version is they claim after the contract, they had rough sex and she peed on his bed. She claimed he then threatened to expose her sexual proclivities publicly if she did not replace the mattress. TMZ says that their Sammy sources deny he ever asked for any money for the mattress. She filed an extortion claim with the police and the case was tossed for lack of evidence.
None of this would be shocking behavior to me when it comes to Sammy. However, he is married now. So if this situation occurred during the marriage, it would be very detrimental to his marriage unless his wife already knew about his behavior. I did also read last year that Sammy’s neighbors complained to the city council about him renting out his house through AirBnB on the weekends so that the renters could throw large parties. That doesn’t sound like settling down, unless the married couple lived elsewhere and the house being reported was strictly a rental.
I guess my question for you guys is, “What is the motivation for TMZ to run a story about an allegation that they know lacked any evidence for a criminal charge?” Basically, the story is Sammy was accused of sexual extortion, but there is no evidence at all that any such thing occurred? Who could be behind this bizarre story?
Sammy’s wife! She wants a divorce and needs evidence he is nasty.
That was my very first thought!
O.M.G. the comments on this article over at TMZ were EVERYTHING!!! It was worth reading the disgusting details just to get to the comments LMAO!!!
When did Golden Showers equate “rough sex”? I’d be mad if some asshole bitch pissed on my bed deliberately too!
I’m hearing Dorinda say “I made it nice!”
Or perhaps she urinated as a result of the rough sex getting a little too rough. Sammy strikes me as the type of guy that would take things too far.
The only place I could find out any information about Sammy’s wife was on a Bravo article. He talked about his wedding on June 4 2016 but his wife’s name was NEVER mentioned in the article. There is no evidence of his marriage on is social media. It’s all very odd.
He just went on a three week trip to Europe with a male “travel buddy” and got back just before the 4th of July and was partying with the Shahs again.
It seems like the marriage if it did happen was Kim K short in duration. Perhaps she found out about all of this and is the source of the story.
It’s all very bizarre.
According to a post re: Mike’s wedding, Sammy’s wife’s name is/was Tiffany. That’s all I could find and I went down a real rabbit hole.
Tamara, I’ve found some pictures of their wedding if you are interested. If you are, please comment your email address. I couldn’t find it anywhere.
I’m only intrigued now because it looks like great pains were taken to scrub all evidence if this marriage from the net. I like a challenge.
The mistress and the pee? Once upon a mattress? Why are my sheiks all wet?
Clever
TD – in house Poet, lol, that is actually good. WTG, TT.
Hm, his marriage not on social media makes sense if he wants to keep the marriage private. Any idea what state or country it took place in? Maybe he married a very conservative religious woman. I don’t know anything.
TMZ is entertainment and the motive could be as simple they needed a article to fill space. Why does anything they say need to be true when a rumor will do?
Judy thinking out loud.
Oops found the answer, sorry. I also misread your post.
Sounds to me like Sammy was trying to make a KK pee-sttyle video, but the deal turned sour and his accomplice sought revenge. TMZ ‘s standards don’t require evidence be present to report an allegation. The mere fact there was a police report filed involving a z-list celeb, which included scandalous details, meets their standards to publish the details of the police report. Could be the info was planted or they unearthed it via their well-known tactics of reviewing of L.A. police reports. In any case, Harvey Levin has made it well known he has eyes and ears everywhere in L.A., There’s always a cop, hospital employee or hotel staffer willing to risk their job to make a few bucks.
I get that. But Sammy is basically a one season wonder on a show six years ago. The allegations were clearly mad quite a while ago. Why now? And who besides a handful of Shahs fans cares?
For one thing, it was dropped right before tonight’s season premiere. In other news, the Internet has been ALMOST completely scrubbed of any info on the wedding.
Yes very little on the wedding but I think it is still a viable marriage, maybe.
Even when traveling he posts pics with other couples but only the men are named.
Women are only named if they are cheerleaders, girls advertising a place, never the women sitting at meals or traveling with him/them.
If you know his wife’s face she is in several pics on IG but never named.
Weird, very private for a American girl.
She made comments about business’s she visited, those are wiped clean also. Everything about her is private or no longer accessible.
Even her engagement/wedding website is gone.
I had a son wipe his name from internet for a job he wanted and it does work, sort of.
