Is it Juan-uary yet? Bachelor Juan Pablo dish - NO SPOILERS please!!!

[Kimberle]

I have a question about last night's show (I recorded tonight's and haven't watched yet). Did anyone notice the awesome huge house that Ryan and Trista had? Where did they get the money for that? I didn't know that firefighters made that much money. Either they've got some awesome alternate source of income (does being on the Bachelor make that much?) or something!

They were paid a million dollars for their wedding, alone. I'm sure they've been paid more over the years for appearances. Plus, she wrote a book.

I just read Juan's blog on People Magazine. The funniest part was when he said that Lucy came downstairs for breakfast in a t-shirt and underwear and stayed in it all throughout. This was the point where he realized she wasn't a good fit for him and his daughter. Uh, wasn't she running around naked on the streets with her dog for the shoot? And she's been flashing her b00bs like she's trying to land planes with them. I guess Juan isn't too observant.

Also of note, he didn't mention anything about Sharleen in his blog other than her getting the crap kicked out of herself in the game. No mention of their kisses at all. She's totally a plant by the producers.

Right. And they of course made money by being on the bachelor itself.

Too funny.

Now I know why the "dog lover" is described that way. She sure doesn't like people much. Getting tired of her *****y comments about, well, pretty much any and every one of the other girls.

And I love dogs, but does the dog really need to be at every rose ceremony?

You'all have me even more excited to watch last night's show. I mean, I've watched Sunday night's and I remember Chris Harrison telling me that it was going to be "the most exciting Bachelor episode EVER!" And he's NEVER said that before!

We'll call him....... Juan Publo

In Venezuela, they might be more comfortable with nudity, like in France & certain parts of Europe. (Yes, I know France is IN Europe. ) That there are certain places for it, like on nude beaches & photo shoots. But, the sitting around semi-nude all the time might not be what he wants.

I don't think he's into any of the women. He's just going through the motion to get the money & exposure for being on the Bachelor.

He also knows that Sharleen is a plant. Just the way he always talks to her, like he's coached on what to say, or has to make stuff up to seem interested in her. Complimenting her on the dress that showed the least of what he looks for in women. Then the first kiss, he dragged her to him. There was no "move in half-way, wait for her to move in the rest of the way," like Will Smith says in the movie, Hitch.

All the other girls on the show would be kissing him in a heartbeat. Sharleen, he has to pull her to him. There was no real flow of interaction before the kiss. It was like he had been told by the producers, "This is where you kiss her, in the middle of the field so all the other girls can see. He kisses her TWICE in areas where the other girls can see them, versus the one girl he takes inside the kitchen to kiss her.

Does THIS sound like a guy who is really looking for his wife? I'd be afraid of upsetting the girl who could be her, and she leaves the show early.

I just wanted to touch on this one more time and then (hopefully) let it be. I think there are different definitions of "ignorant": one is descriptive (like "unaware") and one is a pejorative (like "stupid"). I have come to the conclusion that Juan Pablo's comments were more "unaware" than anything else. Especially when he made his comments right in front of his producer Peter Geist who is gay. And although I agree the "one of my best friends on the show is gay!" defense is bogus, I think that having a gay producer makes his apology more real. He undoubtedly hurt/angered someone he admires and likes and that personal relationship will have more of an effect on him than anything or anyone on the blogoshere.

So, I guess I'm giving him a bit of a pass and I will continue to watch the show. Most of the "O-M-G is he cuuuuttttteee!" excitement is now gone since cute comes from the inside out and I just don't find him as attractive anymore. He's just another Bach to make fun of ... and that's enough for me.

Back on topic...
I was kinda bummed they didn't show Holly and Blake in the "look who is still together" roundup. They were so cute on Bachelor Pad.

Oh, and Micheal Stagliano's twin looks every bit as douchey as he is.

They also didn't mention Chris (Ali's season) and Peyton (Andy's season). They got married & have their own landscaping show on HGTV.

And those girls looked SO beautiful at breakfast, without their faces on - as Kelly put it (is that her name?/dog owner ). They have no idea, I guess, how much better most of them look without it all.

I'm sure they were very uncomfortable, but ITA they were all beautiful with great skin, and somehow seemed more wholesome without all the makeup.

He actually SAID that? I'm so excited that it will be the most exciting Bachelor episode EVER!!!! I've never heard that before.


I did feel bad for making fun of Lucy - she actually seemed really sweet in her good-bye interview - so sweet how she wished the best for everyone there.

Come on Magic.......she paraded around barefoot & nude - she deserved being made fun of more than any of them.... well.... at least equally to most of them...

….he wasn't FLYING the plane….. [ ]

 

[kimmar067]

...Sharlene seems so negative, but looks like she's warming up - Ewww that kiss - definitely the most awkward kiss in Bachelor history - I don't think she's been kissed before…..

….it'd ruin her vocal chords for that operatic singing ….proven. medical. fact.

 

[kimmar067]

Eww! Sharleen was so not into kissing Juan Pablo.

…..mebbe she should get together with Ben.

 

[pkondz]

….he wasn't FLYING the plane….. [ ]

Obviously not.
If he'd been more observant and seen them flashing around, he would've had his hand firmly on the joystick, I'm sure.

 

[Imzadi]

She's not the skanky type.

She's prissy opera diva.
