The Bachelorette in the Media

[saber5055]

Jordan was a story on Extra yesterday. Showed him getting his hairdo sprayed ("More spray," he said) for his new sportscasting gig.

[Artsda]

Jordan and Jojo will appear on Ben and Lauren's show.

[truthaboutluv]

At this point, who isn't appearing on that show. I mean for crying out loud, Chad is going to be on an episode.

[chocolatine]

Will any of these people ever stop going on TV?

[Scout Finch]

No.

[seacliffsal]

Never.  Even if they are despised by the public or made to look ridiculous, they are STILL celebrities in their own minds and to those who follow them on social media and buy their products.

[chocolatine]

I know, mine was more of a rhetorical question. The new tagline for this franchise should be "Bachelor[ette| in Paradise]: Famewhores Need Love Too"

That story about Ames makes me happy. It sounds like he found his perfect match.

The ex seems out for attention, bitter party of 1. She did herself no favors by still attacking him yet again.

Both sides of the family, the Rodgers and Fletchers all got together to surprise Jojo and Jordan for an engagement dinner. That's sweet.

What a weird photo, some of the people look super Photoshopped (especially Jordan and the guy second from the right in the front.) I actually thought Jordan was Nick Viall in that photo and that other photoshopped guy was Jared, lol. 

[Armchair Critic]

• JoJo looks Photoshopped in too. Strange.

[Lamb18]

Well, it looks like Vikings are going to beat Green Bay. I guess Aaron Rodgers was too distracted thinking about his brother and JoJo. (Appreciate it, Jordan and JoJo!)

[Armchair Critic]

Emily Maynard had another baby boy with her husband.

I remember a group photo from my grandparents' 50th anniversary party where there were so many people taking photos that nobody could keep track of where to look/when to smile. My uncle ended up photoshopping heads from various photos into one so there was at least one picture where everyone was looking the same way and smiling. 

The fact that every single person in that huge group is posing and smiling perfectly makes me wonder if someone did a similar patch job and that's why it looks so weird. 

If that's the case, they could have photoshopped Aaron in there, lol. 

[Armchair Critic]

That picture reminds me of the photo Jack Nicholson ends up in at the end of The Shining.

[Canada]

Wow, that was so many shades of bad.  I especially like the guy holding his balls in one of the very last scenes.

[Artsda]

Seems like all of Bachelor/Bachelorette nation is in Vegas for the iHeartRadio festival this week. Including Jojo&Jordon, Ben&Lauren, Jade&Tanner, Carly&Evan and all the rest etc.. etc..

Chris Soules looks aged. And is that Becca next to Luke?

[ShaNaeNae]

I thought that pic of Chris Soules making a face was Kevin James.

Yep, that's Becca.  She's with Robert (he who does not remove his jeans in Mexico Robert) nowadays. 

[Artsda]

She seemed always next to Luke in all the pics and not next to Robby. lol

Kaitlyn & Shawn weren't invited to Vegas she said. 

[truthaboutluv]

Kaitlyn and Shawn are so incredibly annoying. They constantly talk about how awful they were treated by the show during her season, with Kaitlyn even going as far as saying watching JoJo's season for her recaps she did on her blog, was traumatizing due to all the memories it brought back and her PTSD over the experience (I'm not kidding you). Yet, they are quick to rush and whine on social media when they're not a part of anything to do with the franchise. Like what the hell - pick a side and stick to it. Either they were both oh so mistreated and want nothing to do with the franchise anymore or like all the famewhores, they want every opportunity they can get from it. Either way, quit freaking bitching.

I can just image her watching Luke talk about his experience of combat and losing friends in Afghanistan, and her going, "yes, I've gone through the exact same emotions when Shawn and I weren't invited to the latest Bachelor Family function"

[TVGlow]

So, are these guys simply invited to or paid to attend this festival? 

[Artsda]

I think they all had to be invited, the ones that walked the red carpet or presented were probably paid.

What a whiny bitch!  No, Kaitlyn, in order to have PTSD you have to actually experience or witness a traumatic event, one which involved actual physical threat or danger.  What you are talking about is called "hurt feelings because I didn't get what I wanted" disorder, also called  Entitlement Syndrome. 

 

Where are you reading about them, anyway?  I thought they had pretty much disappeared.

I liked the picture, those panties are lifesavers after giving birth.

[ribboninthesky1]

I was more disturbed, after reading the link, at how her fiancé/husband was so keen to bring the camera crew along when it wasn't what she initially wanted.  She seemed fine once they got to the hospital, but...yeah.  I don't follow her show, but that information gave me a peek into their dynamic.  But in general, I thought the whole blog post was...odd. 

As for the panties - it makes perfect sense to me to wear those after extraction of a being the size of a small watermelon from the vagina. God bless mothers!

She had a baby just like millions of women do. Go Jillian. Get that kid into the realitysphere asap.

Wear them, sure! Post the photograph, maybe no. I also don't want to see her modeling nipple pads.

[ribboninthesky1]

Ha! That's fair.  The staged photos are part of the reason why I found the post very odd.

Yes - Me too.  The whole 'camera crew follows me for days while I'm leaking' thing didnt appeal to me.  Nothing wrong with the blog post, just struggling with the professionally staged photos throughout the whole process. Not my cup of tea.  Probably why I'm not a reality star!

Nah - FWIW, I'm a fairly recent mom, and there is so much pressure to be post-partum perfect for new moms today.  Posing in the mesh hospital panties? (Ok - the posing is weird) but I'm happy that a public figure isn't all 'look I birthed a human and didn't even mess up my hair'. Thing.  it's unreasonable for women, so I like that Jillian is trying to be on the right side of that dynamic.  Even if she is posing with perfect hair for a profesisonal photographer.  There was also another similar regular person photo shoot like this one that went viral - so I like that she's supporting that mom too.  

Birth is hard, scary, and the life change is immense.  I'll support any public figure who nods to that.

I don't have a problem with her talking about the post-birth panties. Just generally, I don't want to see photos of anyone's ooze-catchers, though. Don't care if it's gauze on their pus-filled wound, a maxi pad, adult diapers on their grandma, or the tissue they used to blow their nose. It's always surprising to me when people photograph their medical conditions and post the results. Almost narcissistic.

Oh everything about that post screams narcissism ;).  

I guess that for me, with all the softly lit 'mommy paradise' nonsense, I appreciated the small dose of (unsoiled) reality.   

[chocolatine]

I really like Jillian, but every time she talks about her boyfriend he sounds immature and self-centered. I hope that becoming a father makes him grow up a bit.

[ribboninthesky1]

Yeah, I know nothing about the guy, but reading that he wanted to sleep in their camper despite Jillian's condition, yet when it was time to go the hospital, he took the time to notify the camera crew doesn't exactly advertise "caring and attentive partner." But then, Jillian is the woman who, after her water broke, took the time for staged photos. I hope little Leo has some extended family that will provide a sense of normalcy - his parents obviously aren't the type.

Exactly.  I don't give a shit if she wears panties at all, my "what the hell is that" comment was about the fact it was photographed AND posted.  I wouldn't say almost narcissistic, I'd say out & out narcissistic.

In other Bachelorette baby news, Desiree has given birth to a baby boy 

Probably my favorite couple from the franchise.

Ever since someone compared Jordan to Asparagus from the Veggie Tales, that's all I can see when I look at his giant head with bonus height hair floof.

So when did this become a right of passage for Bachelor/Bachelorette couples?

Ashley and JP on Marriage Boot Camp

And when did they film this, since didn't she just have a baby and she doesn't even look pregnant there. I mean I know DWTS is calling as much but this is just ridiculous. 

[Ciarrai]

I love Ashley and JP but I'm definitely not a fan of what they name their children.
