I am one of those girls.
yea one of those girls that I try not to be, but ultimately my true self shine through
one of those girls who watches The Bachelor {GASP!} if you didn’t know from this post
i know i know I try to tell myself it isn’t real, only a few actually make it in the end, and once again IT IS FAKE.
But man, every season I just really get sucked into the drama, the love triangles, the crazy girls, and of course wait impatiently to find out who is ultimately the one. {at least the one on the show}
I give the same CAUTION: if you hate the bachelor/bachelorette show then this isn’t the post for you…but like before you can go to THIS and get your laugh on. {this was a real news story (which is equally hilarious) and they put the news to autotune.} Oh and it is on itunes and the guy made so much money he is out of the projects and bought a house for his mom…crazy right??
Go check it out–totally worth it. No really it is, I’ll wait for you to come back from that youtube video.
Okay so if you are back from laughing at the youtube video we will get back to the Bachelor! I’ll give some background of The Bachlor before I talk about this season because some people are crazy normal and have never seen The Bachelor ( I still think this is impossible but true).
**SPOILERS BELOW**
Okay so The Bacheor is a show where it is one man {sometimes famous/sometimes not} but normally a very pretty man and he has to choose out of 24 ladies who will be his wife {or at least propose to one of them at the end of the season}. Each episode he gives out roses at a rose ceremony and sometimes a lot of girls go and some times a few girls go. As it hits about 10 ladies to choose from it goes down to multiple people leaving to only one person leaving. Around when he has 4 people to choose from they go to exotic lands, with 3 people to go to they meet the familes, and with 2 people to go they spend a lot of time together before the last rose ceremony.
So with that being said there is a lot of build up to the last rose ceremony. Here are some highlights of past rose ceremonies….

probably the most infamous bachelor he picked one girl and then on the final rose special {all the ladies come back and the bachelor with his new fiance come on the show to explain when wedding plans will happen, how they are, etc). Well he dumped the girl he chose because he was really in love with the last girl he sent home!! OMG what drama! What a season!

left is the girl he dumped on national TV. right is the girl he ended up marrying.

The girl on the right was on the The Bachelor and she was a finalist for The Bachelor’s heart but she didn’t get chosen. But America LOVED her and so she was the first Bachelorette (spin off show of The Bachelor) and she met her love on the show and actually has two children! They are one of the sucess stories!

This was the first bachelor (2002) and he was the one who did not pick Trista. He actually didn’t propose to his girl and said lets see where things take us in the last rose ceremony. It took them NO WHERE and they broke up.

This was my favorite bachelor Andrew Firestone (2003) and my hubs is big into wine and to me was a celebrity as he has an amazing vineyard and amazing wine. He chose the girl I wanted him to but in a big breakup they didn’t end up together! I was devastated (fo reals!) but it all ended great for both parties as he is married and has a baby and Jenn the person he picked his married and just had a baby girl!
Okay so there are more in between that I loved to watch but to get to this year’s season a little faster I will fast forward to 2007.

At the end of his season (one of the most shocking rose ceremonies) he didn’t pick ANYONE!!! No fo reals girls were ready to give them everything and he didn’t choose anyone. Oh my gawd. people hated him!!! I didn’t hate him as I was like well you are being honest and you didn’t find love–but he did kinda play/act like he did throughout the season which is why it was sooo shocking!
Both these ladies REJECTED. OUCH!!!!
More bachelors have come and gone since 2007 until this year…HE IS BACK!!

He is back and ready to find love…again. He has done a lot of work on himself and is really trying to be open and honest with the girls. Although at times there can be a ton of cheese in the show I still am sucked into it!
Here are my top 3 as of right now:
Sweet as Pie Emily. She is a southern belle if I ever saw one and so cute and tiny and just has a genuine heart. She is so nice you wonder if people can actually be THIS nice but time and time again she has been one classy lady. I think Brad sees that in her too although she has a trauma filled past as her fianced died on an airplane and then 4 days later she found out she was pregnant. super sad but she is super sweet and I am in her corner to find love!
Ashley S. had a great first impression with him and there was a ton of chemistry and I do believe in going on those first reactions to a person to be real. They haven’t had a ton of alone time to see more of the chemistry of what they felt at the beginning but he still looks at her in that special way and I think he really cares for her and I am in her corner too!
Chantal I really love because she is the firecraker! Puts her heart on her sleeve, emotional, but true to herself. She reminds me a bit of my personality and I could totally see us being friends–I think she is pretty awesome and so does Brad. She isn’t has dainty as the other ladies and has a fire and confidence in her that I really like but also can be vulnerable.
OH and it wouldn’t be a Bachelor recap without talking about the TRAIN WRECK!!! Normally the train wreck looks like a train wreck but she doesn’t actually!! She looks exotic and pretty but she is PSYCHO!!! Brad I know you already made your choice but for the love of anything let it please not be MICHELLE! Anyone with me on this? She is crazy bananas and thinks Brad is her own and no one elses and has these psycho eyes and I could see getting violent with the ladies if they tried to take her man. I can’t wait for the day he rejects her because there is going to be a battle for sure!! Yea she looks sweet and innocent…but she is not!!! She sure does make watching it that much more entertaining!!! Oh and speaking of entertaining she is actually an actress so you know she is there trying to get famous and not really there for loveeeee.
and if you don’t want to watch the Bachelor but want to see some of her antics…here is a little youtube clip
Oh and there was someone on The Bachelor this season who was from Boston {Woot!} Nice to see Mass represented until you meet her and you are like classsyyyyyy….way to represent us Stacey from Boston! Who wears chains to a rose ceremony???? The exact dress she wore from the ceremony….

Did I convince you?? If so you can find all of the first 3 episodes on hulu! And if you are just laughing at me and being like PUHLLEASEEE I would rather eat dirt then watch The Bachelor that is okay too because I am totally okay with being one of those girls since 2002…HAHAHAHA!!!
{this is the type of post you are bound to get when a girl has too much free time from half a snow day!}








Ha, ha. I’ve only watched one season of the Bachelor (secretly with my college roommate). It was a blast!
