The Bachelorette in the Media

Darn.    Always checking in to see if  Kaitlyn and Shawn have crashed and burned yet.  My money is on that they won't make it past Thanksgiving..  even a bit before.  3 months is often a make/break time period in relationships.  

 

I don't like Josh.  And not that I was a big Andi fan..I wasn't.  The whole family turned me off.  They seemed very closed-off to outsiders.  Can't quite describe it.  So wrapped up in their kids' sports careers.  As if a relationship or newcomer would be a distraction to their hard-core family obsession     It's been awhile since I saw that ep. but that's the impression I'm left with.

Well, they've made it past your deadline already. They've been engaged since May which was four months ago.

I don't count the time that they have to be underground tho.   Real life --day to day is more difficult  especially after being in the spotlight--  it's a big change..

Not exactly - Andi and Josh were pretty much living together soon after the season wrapped, since they were both from Atlanta. Hell Josh and Andi celebrated Thanksgiving and Christmas together, with their families, if you believed their social media and they were over barely two weeks into the new year.

Ali's fiance's pics remind me a bit of Frank(? was it?), the one that got away, on her season.

 

I always knew Frank was Ali's pick. She even said Chris wasn't in her F2. She was DEVASTATED when Frank bailed just like DeAnna was when Graham was "sent home".

Yeah, her post show "Roberto was my guy from the first day" always seemed totally false to me after she boo-hooed herself into a tizzy when Frank left at final 3.

What did Ali do to herself? She looks like a completely different person, not just "hair and makeup".

 

Shawn and Kaitlyn are the only TB couple I truly cannot stand. Two immature, conceited, obnoxious, and imo very unlikable people. (Yes, no mincing words--can't stand them!)  Mean as it may be, I expect a breakup before the end of the year--and that afterwards they will both rudely trash each other to the media in the hope of extending their "fame" a little longer.

Yeah, that's my only reason for being here as well.

It's a club. Which means people belong to it. Many people. Many many many people. If that's the worst thing they do in life, they'll be blessed.

 

While it does have a website, it is a "club" in name only. There is no president, officers, board of directors, and the only membership requirement is to have sex on an airplane, after which individuals can proclaim themselves members, no proof required. It is not exactly a classy thing to put on your job resumé, unless one is working in pornos. And I hesitate to call anyone who has sex on an airplane "blessed" in any way. I actually find it offensive, as are the people who brag about belonging to this fakety fake "club."

People who have sex on public transport should be flogged in public. Or ejected at 33,000 feet with a glad bag as a parachute.

The more I hear of this juvenile wench, the more I think Ian was justified in ragging on her skanky ass. And I do enjoy a good poop/fart joke.

I'm almost to the point of admitting Britt would have been better. Oh fuck it. I'm there.

Well kaitlyn is back to drinking, alot so I am expecting the break up to come sooner than later.

Wonder what went through Shawn's mind when he was at the Janner wedding. Probably something like "damn should have been like Tanner and just stuck around long enough for a BiP invite".

I, for one, will be shocked if they break up, Kaitlyn and Shawn are like the two proverbial peas in a pod.

I expect Kaitlyn and Shawn will take the Byron and Mary route: together forever until love dies in a drunken bar fight. I suspect they'll never get married, but they'll last a solid two or three years.

It's a B'ette baby boom. Ali, DeAnna, Emily AND Jillian. Wow! Happy for Jillian. It's always been obvious she wanted to be married and start a family. Good for her and even better it's not with that douche Ed.

She's getting one out of two. Based on the boyfriend's post, it doesn't sound like he's planning to propose anytime soon. He's still in his 20s and sounds very immature. Looks like Jillian realized that if she waited for a ring from him, she'd miss her fertility window, so she just went for the pregnancy.

From the Jillian article

But truth be told, I could have gotten knocked up with his baby on that second date and I probably would have been over the moon… haha… ok MAYBE too soon, but I WAS smitten.

Quite the class act.

I read her boyfriend's post on Instagram and rolled my eyes to the back of my head:

 

"I'm tired of everyone telling me to lock it up... I mean if you know Jill she will loose the ring. So I came up with the best invention ever for the love of my life. A little baby miracle in her tummy."

 

First of all I can't stand people who don't know the difference between "loose" and "lose". Secondly the whole "She'll lose the ring anyway so I invented a baby miracle in her tummy" is an excuse and everyone (including Jillian) knows it. I'm no prude but if a couple decides to have a baby before marriage, fine, but don't make an excuse for why you're not getting married, especially one as stupid as "She'll LOOSE the ring".

And seriously, a guy that mistakes a tummy for a uterus is pretty much an idiot.  I hope Jillian is just using him as an attractive sperm donor and doesn't actually plan to raise the kid with him.  Sounds like she'd actually be raising 2 children.

If the ring is so loose get it resized.

Also? As much as everyone loves and dotes on their own baby, I'm sorry but it's usually not a miracle. I realize sometimes it kinda is, but usually it's more of a basic biological thing that happens all the time.

Well, doesn't JJ sound like a little ray of sunshine!  Those revelations always make me laugh because while very few people really care, he's probably right.  As Saylii noted above, the demise of their relationship in a drunken bar fight, and I'll add in a restraining order, is so much more likely for them than marital bliss!  *LOL*

Since this is about social media, I assume my post belongs here. I was on Facebook and apparently somebody from their Bachelorette page posted about JoJo being the Bachelorette before the Bachelor finale aired on the West Coast. Lots of pissed off comments from pissed off viewers!

This sort of stuff annoys me to no end. Does that person expect the world to stop until she has time to sit and watch the show? Anybody on the west coast knows if you want to remain unspoiled, you don't go on the internet until after the show airs in your timezone because everyone from the earlier zones will be talking about what happened.

^^^ Exactly.  The days of hashing things out the next day at work are O.V.E.R.  As soon as people started Tweeting and Instagramming along with a show, the expectation of secrecy was gone.  There is no corner of social media that's safe from constant updates.  You either go radio silent, or you just have to deal with it coming out somewhere.  Whiners.

On Monday night virtually every Bachelor personality's Instagram feed had dozens of "OMG SPOILERS. UNFOLLOWING!" comments. And dozens more people telling them they were idiots for going on social media before 8 PM Pacific. Those comments warmed my heart.

A few people commented that they wanted to go on Facebook to check their messages. Well, if that's the case, all they had to do was go to messenger and not look at the newsfeed...or unfollowed Bachelor/Bachelorette pages they subscribed to for the day.

^^^This is why I never understood the reasoning that they couldn't use F2 as The Bachelorette. They clearly have enough time to film at get the show out for May.

Me either. Although now that they have done it I expect there might be some backlash in the future. If they have a contestant they don't particularly like for reasons we the viewer don't see, but that contestant is wanted by the public it could cause a conflict. Or even more pissed off viewers if their favorite is F2 but doesn't get picked. Where before the viewer would say, " I really want so and so but there's no way they'll be picked because they was F2" now it'll be, " they've did it before they can do it again". I do think it will make it more exciting for us viewers though because now we'll get to wonder which of the top 4 they'll pick instead of top 3.

Usually TBette starts filming her intro package (out and about in public) before the finale, and that gets picked up on social media. If people see F2 filming, they'll know she lost. I suspect they'll skip that for JoJo or shoot it after the fact.

I think Show was crazy to not have used F2 in the past--it really limited the options. No one believes F2 is really heartbroken as a rule (sometimes, maybe, but seriously, now?) any more than we believe F1 will be married and live happily ever after, as a rule, so it's not like the magic of the show needs to be maintained. And the whole show has been filmed before we see episode 1, so there is plenty of time for editing it into a fake drama. Needing to start filming promos is a bogus excuse imo.

 

My dream show is that each episode gets edited and aired within two weeks of filming, so NO ONE knows who will be F1. It would be so much more fun to watch, and  would also mean no spoilers about F1 before the first episode is even aired, if Show even cares about that anymore.

They shot JoJo's "intro" package on the fly, this past weekend.   

 

Traditionally, the ATFR show was when the dumped #2 girl got to get her confrontation going and get answers from the Bachelor.  It made sense that the woman having an intense, emotional exchange with the person that lied to her, misled her, then dumped her has got to be difficult.  But THEN to say 20 minutes later  "BUT, now I'm awesome and going to be kissing 25 new guys in about 3 days!"  They did it the same way for 7 seasons, so them changing it this season was unusual. 

 

But now they have removed that obstacle, so I imagine that in future seasons, the eligibles will be anybody in the top 5 that's not the winner.

Chad Rookstool - that is a comedy name! Chad Rookstool (hahaha) has really cooked his goose with JoJo with that interview. What an immature little twat with his bitchy digs. I hope she finds some really nice suitors on the B'ette and washes that Chad Rookstool right out of her hair with them.

Congratulations to Des and Chris. They're having a baby. I think that is the only couple from this franchise I have legitimately really rooted for. They got so much crap after the season with all the Brooks stuff and I just always felt they seemed like two genuinely nice people, a rarity for this mess of a show. So I'm thrilled for them.

ETA: It's like a B'ette Baby Boom! Emily, DeAnna, Jillian, Ali and now Des. Ashley is probably the next one.
