If you've even been an over-50 woman in a defense class, (like me) surrounded by other women (like me), you'd appreciate the training she's getting....Trust me, the real-life thing is not as pretty and coordinated as what QL shows on the screen!....*LOL*

*Whew*!. I'd would have REALLY hated to really hate Chris Noth, as he's burning up my TV screen these days. I simply can't NOT look at him in every scene he's in. I think her aunt knows a lot more than she admits to, you can see her twisting Robyn's tail on occasion. And enjoying every minute of it. QL is literally kicking ass in the physical combat and defense scenes. Whoever trains her does a great job, she comes off very graceful and confident. Very believable I think.

Scotty McCreery went way outside his box quite a few times in season 10, and took the whole thing. It can be done, and he was 16 when he auditioned and 17 when he won. Caleb Kennedy to me, is the one that should have gotten a pass by. He did an "original" song that sounds SO much like a very popular song released several years ago by a well know artist. I can't remember who and the title, but I knew exactly where his song was going because it was unbelievably similar. I'm going to have to re-watch his performance. ETA: at the 45 second mark of Caleb's song, it sounds almost exactly to me like "I Drive Your Truck", a monster hit by Lee Brice in 2012. Even if Caleb was just a kid back then, he's heard the song. I can't believe Luke Bryan missed that.

I think so too. The cuts still have to be even so the top 24 is 12 women and 12 men, correct? If so, then cutting Hannah would have had no effect on Murphy's status. I think his unique personality and style aren't right for the show, while I think he's amazing. Squashing him into a "theme-of-the-week" box might be entertaining to the audience, but I don't know if he would flourish there. Twitter went nuts last night after his boot, but I imagine he'll have more fans than he can handle after this.

Is Chris throwing down the gauntlet? Looks like he & Lauren are still together. https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/the-bachelor-host-chris-harrison-gets-lunch-with-ladylove-lauren-zima/ar-BB1eWs2L?li=BBnbfcL

He will never find that place. Because as has been pointed out before, some people will search every square inch of the Vuolo's lives to find something they can torpedo, just because. We've all seen the absolute glee some individuals take in heading straight to a new or potential sponsor, in order to trash this couple in social media and point out every single bad thing they can. Even when they can only base it on the fact that there is a Duggar involved somewhere.

I believe Wyatt-with-the-hat has been in every episode. I think Murphy is my fave of all of them. And I think his career is going to happen, regardless of how he does on Idol. I don't see his uniqueness as an affectation or a put on.

My mistake. It's Jill that poses excessively with all the free swag the leghumpers send to her PO box, and the clothing she obviously gets free from somebody, while asking her stupid, rhetorical questions. Since Jinger is tarred with the same brush used on Jeremy, I figure Deertick was fair game as well, even when Jill is the one actually doing the begging.

So Jeremy, who's studying to become a preacher, can't have religious books. But Derrick, who's studying to become a lawyer, is allowed to have legal books. Interesting.

The candles are made and shipped from a small family company in Charleston, SC. I bought several of the candles, and they arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I had previously bought their candles from other sites, and those shipments were fine too. I can't comment on other's experiences, but mine was excellent. Like most online shops, the owners, Jinger & Jeremy, never actually stock or ship the merchandise.

I actually think it would be HIL.AR.I.OUS for Chris to rake in a bundle of settlement cash from ABC and/or the franchise for some breach of his hosting & producing contract with them. Networks usually deserve the bad rep they get as bloodthirsty and money grubbing scumbags. Except maybe Animal Planet. I like to think they're all nice people over there. *LOL*

Where's the dog, Jill? We don't need to see you rubbing your ass in more new clothes.

Where's the dog? I don't know a single new pet owner that doesn't plaster their social media with their new fur babies, at least a few times a week. I don't track their social media, so maybe they do updates. Frankly, Fenna is the only Dilllard/Duggar I'd like photos of.

Any type of sales rep, former athlete or freelance gig like personal trainer is going to allow these guys to take the time off for the show. Most are underemployed (like Matt) and probably don't make much. But those owning their own businesses may do ok. You never know who's going to be the surprising one.

According to Reality Steve's Twitter feed, the bodaciously yummy Bao is a real estate agent. He's got some occupation information for a bunch of the guys, but not all of them. More than what ET has up with just their first name, age and location.

I really hope Kaitlyn's gotten used to her veneers. The constant teeth-sucking she was doing on DWTS was so distracting. But since I don't care for either her on Tayshia, I'll just do my usual TV muting when they're on screen. I'm only there for the eye candy!

Here's the ET list, with photos. https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/news/katie-thurstons-potential-bachelorette-contestants-revealed/ar-BB1eJnbn?li=BBnbfcL Is ABC contractually required to include a guy named "Garrett" in every season now? Not a good trend. And what's with all the shirts with tiny, tight sleeves? Not a good look. In the immortal words of Shania Twain, regarding this group of men, "That don't Impress Me Much".

Deertick hasn't graduated, hasn't passed the bar exam, and hasn't been hired by a legal firm. That certificate just says that as a 3rd year law student, he can do grunt work for supervising attorneys at a legal clinic. There are dozens of "possibilities" that every member of the family could entertain. Deertick isn't the sole success of the family because he's still in school.

I think most of us were fairly sure he would make it through school and with decent grades, though we never heard any crowing about him making the Dean's List or any other superlatives. We did talk about it quite a bit when he began. He finished his undergrad degree and his fake-minister classes, so he can achieve things. However, he tends to flame out spectacularly at follow up and abandons life goals seemingly on a whim. And frankly, a well trained mechanic or plumber can make more in a year than a brand-new lawyer. Saying he's better educated than the others is true, but he won't necessarily out-earn all of the other Duggars with their minimal schooling. He'll need quite a few years of high-level legal work to make big bucks.

I imagine Deertick is responsible for changing the water cooler jug & unfolding the chairs for new "clients". Law clinics usually operate on a shoestring, so no frills. He might as well get used to the environment, because that's probably where he'll end up. Serving notice on landlords and doing bail hearings. Real life-changing law.

But the Hannahs and the Laurens are the ones that WANT to be on the show and are making themselves available! You can't have a diverse cast if they don't apply or won't follow the show requirements. You can't force people to be on the show just to fulfil a quota. At this point, aren't we pretty sure that only serious famewhores are trying to get on camera? And for whatever role they're told by producers to play?

I'd wager as many people know him from hosting "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" than from The Bachelor franchise. We know loads about what's going, but literally millions of people don't know and don't care about the whole racial controversy. My mother and all her friends watch the show, yet never go on social media to read the gossip, don't follow Twitter or Instagram and don't check out Reality Steve or any podcast. All the oh-so-shocking revelations are just not necessarily interesting to people that don't follow the franchise. Seriously, millions don't even register the whole situation. I just don't think "Bachelor Nation" is as big, important or influential as some people, including ABC, like to think they are. YMMV

I'm betting Chris Harrison had at least a dozen hosting/moderating/voice-over type offers before that press release about him "stepping back" was even written. He could write another book, maybe go non-fiction about hosting or Hollywood in general. He could even profile the franchise if it was carefully edited and he didn't spill too many secrets. He's got loads of friends and connections. In a few weeks he'll be making the rounds of the morning shows, talk shows & podcasts, expounding on his new "journey" towards enlightenment. And guaranteed there will be cameras documenting every step of his "awakening", complete with a spiffy new wardrobe and more piles of cash. We'll get to see all the "steps" he takes towards being a better man. He is far from done with showbiz, though he can spend more quality time working on his golf game.

I understand that. But Chris Harrison made it clear on Twitter a few seasons back that they wanted women exclusively interested in men, and men exclusively interested in women for THIS PARTICULAR franchise. It was after the BIP with Demi, when fans were commenting on her "fluidity of attraction" and why there weren't more contestants like her sought out. There are loads of options with other shows.

It's fun to find out what Mami means: Spanish[edit] Pronunciation[edit] IPA(key): /ˈmami/, [ˈma.mi] Noun[edit] mami f (plural mamis) (informal) mommy (Central America, Philippines) mother (Bolivia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Panama, Puerto Rico, Venezuela) attractive woman; momma (Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico, Venezuela) a term of affection for a woman (Peru) a woman who runs a brothel; a madame (Honduras, derogatory) a homosexual man
