Bachelorette Season 8--Emily Maynard (SPOILERS!)

[Catherine M]

Reality Steve is up with his latest blog. I'll ignore the Bachelor Pad 3 spoilers as I think last night's preview gave most of the couples away, if you look real closely.

He did say that he doesn't think that the live After the Final Rose will amount to much but he has heard that there has been some lingering feelings between Arie & Emily. Steve doesn't know to what extent they have been in contact past filming (could be just a call or text) so he doesn't expect Emily to pull a Mesnick and break up with Jef on live TV.

Jef either is a complete idiot or just wants to get his company's name out there if he is still engaged to Emily after (1) seeing her drool all over Arie for two months and (2) be in contact with him.

I haven't been watching...just checking this thread because my sister knows Sean's parents. But Emily seems like a twit. Does anyone care by now who she picks?

In reply to your last question, my answer is a resounding NO!

[heckles]

I bet they will get a ton of applicants if it is Roberto.

Roberto looked good, but there was a skanky aura about him. To me, anyway. It could have just been his association with Ali Fedotowsky. Never understood why she was picked for Bachelorette, anyway. She was a Mean Girl and flaky in Jake Pavelka's Bachelor season, but then the audience was supposed to have amnesia and like her as the Bachelorette.

Just watched. Good for Emily for dumping and dumping and dumping on Kalon, three times!

And Ryan is scum looking for a trophy wife.

You think? You could be right. If he is The Bachelor, we will most likely find out b/c we will be seeing a lot more of him. It could be like when everyone thought that Bob (AKA "Blob") was a good guy when he was on of the 25 guys, but then turned out to be a big tool during his season when we actually got to know him.


...Ali Fedotowsky. Never understood why she was picked for Bachelorette, anyway. She was a Mean Girl and flaky in Jake Pavelka's Bachelor season, but then the audience was supposed to have amnesia and like her as the Bachelorette.

Yeah, I never saw her appeal on Jake's season. Not quite sure why she, of all of the girs, was chosen to be on The Bachelorette.

Fleiss was very pro Ali coming out of her season with Jake and went with her over the more popular Tenley as the bachelorette. Though Tenley wouldn't have been able to handle the process at all so I doubt she was even given a thought to be the lead by the producers.

The girl from Jake's season that should have gotten the gig IMHO was Gia, who by the way is moving to New Orleans with her NBA player boyfriend this week. I'll have to look for her when I'm out and about. Hee.


I would much prefer Arie over Roberto so for once I hope Reality Steve doesn't know what he is talking about and Roberto won't be on my TV come January. Nothing against Roberto but he is boring.

I'm quoting myself as there has been some chatter in the tabloid press that Roberto has taken himself out of the running for the Bachelor due to the fact that he has a new girlfriend.

I guess we'll have to wait and see if this ends up being true or not. Sometimes tabloids due get things right and with all the screaming that Sean got at the MTA, I can see Fleiss picking him over Arie.

Roberto=insurance agent in California
Sean=insurance agent in Dallas

So if it does get changed to Sean, Fleiss won't even have to change the theme of the show:

"An Insurance agent: the best lover you'll ever get a quote from"

[Roxanne]

Blondiegal at newFORT says that Sean is the next Bachelor. She has always been reliable so I think it's true. I wonder why Arie isn't doing it. unless it's because Emily picked him.

[Lacey]

Sean, seriously?

[Catherine M]

I wouldn't be surprised if Arie said "no thanks". Or maybe the final 1 spoilers have been wrong for the past three months.

Been watching Big Brother so I'm just tuning in now to see how it all ends.

[Twizzler]

Emily's mother :scream: Her eyebrows are half way up her forehead. Run, Jef, run!!!!

Why do people bother to have that much work done on their face, but they leave their necks alone. It's like the head of a 20 year old on the body of a 60 year old. Pay the extra money and have work done on the neck, too!

[Catherine M]

Poor Arie! I always feel bad for the person at finale that gets dumped, especially if they don't see it coming.

And Emily, good luck with one f Jef!

[professordeb]

Yeah, I too felf bad for Arie even though I haven't watched the show except for the 45 minutes tonight while I waited for Big Brother. OTOH, maybe it's just as well since I don't consider her that great a catch.

[Roxanne]

I can't believe this terrible, fake show made me go "aww". Those pictures of Emily, Jef and Ricki were so cute!
