Corinne Olympios, one of the few memorable contestants on Season 22 of The Bachelor featuring Nick Viall, has a theory about the next Bachelor contestant Colton Underwood, who claims he’s a virgin.
On Thursday, your virgin Bachelor and mine, Colton Underwood, appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to “meet” three contestants from his upcoming season, which is scheduled to air on ABC in January. The ladies are certainly sweet and end-of-episode-blooper-reel ready (one woman, Sydney, offers the misremembered pickup…
The next Bachelor is a big blonde baby named Colton Underwood who’s also a largely unremarkable 26-year-old virgin and former football player. His v-card status is already driving his upcoming season’s storyline, as it has been known to do in past Bachelor seasons, with a slight distinction: he’s not waiting for…
Some people call Drew Scott the “hot Property Brother.” Other people call Jonathan Scott the “hot Property Brother.” The show’s biggest fans think they’re equally hot! But a special few, myself included, belong to a category of people who find these improbable reality stars and aspiring country singers impossible to…
On Wednesday night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, host Jimmy Kimmel thought it’d be funny to give Colton Underwood, the 26-year-old former football player, recently appointed Bachelor and infamous virgin, a sex talk. This is to be expected, as Underwood’s only discernible personality trait is his virginity, but man is this…
I do not watch any shows in ABC’s Bachelor franchise (which includes The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor In Paradise) with any regularity, but thanks to its exhaustive coverage by the media feel as though I do. Conversations surrounding the franchise are far more intimate than similar ones about other network…
You could say we all saw it coming. And yet, it’s such an offensively boring pick, color me surprised by the predictability—Colton Underwood, a real person (seen above) and not the love interest of a YA novel set in some future dystopia—is your next Bachelor.
The man we all figured would win The Bachelorette—after he scored the first impression rose and a smooch on night one—has won the heart of Becca Kufrin. Garrett Yrigoyen is Kufrin’s new fiancé, in what turned out to be one of the most predictable Bachelorette seasons in history.
Former Bachelor contestant Bekah Martinez—the only cast member who made Arie’s season bearable—has accused Leandro “Leo” Dottavio from the most recent season of the Bachelorette, of sexual harassment.
ABC has announced that it’s pulling the second episode of its Bachelor-esque reality show The Proposal, after a woman accused one of its contestants of setting up a sexual assault.
Arie Luyendyk Jr. is easily the world’s most-hated Bachelor, after dumping his fiancée Becca Kufrin in the most unnecessarily extended breakup The Bachelor has ever subjected viewers to. And frankly, he thinks that’s really unfair.
After three years of “will they or won’t they,” Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon have finally said yes to love’s warm embrace. Their new coupledom was announced in a gushing 45-minute video interview that premiered exclusively on People.com. If you don’t know who Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon are, that’s fine,…
From the makers of The Bachelor, a reality show in which single people compete to get married, comes a new show about the extremely sweet and goofy act of proposing to another person—a show called The Proposal.
Last night, The Bachelor managed to rob two additional hours from my life with an extra “After the Final Rose” episode. This happened because on Monday night, ABC decided it would be better to show us a woman sobbing for 30 minutes straight.
This season of The Bachelor has been, in a word, terrible. I’m delivering that information mostly secondhand, because after two episodes with Arie, I simply could not continue. He has the personality of a damp piece of wood; the physical grace of a large, confused bird; and his face is too many different colors. He…
In May 2014, I wrote a piece about Amy Kaufman, an entertainment reporter for the Los Angeles Times who’d been uninvited by ABC from press calls and events for The Bachelor because the network disliked the tone of her coverage about the show. The choice to cut Kaufman off was an odd one. As a longtime fan of the…
A new excerpt from Los Angeles Times staff writer Amy Kaufman’s forthcoming new book, Bachelor Nation: Inside the World of America’s Favorite Guilty Pleasure, gives us some juicy, somewhat depressing details about the show’s casting process.
When contestant Bekah Martinez left The Bachelor this November, she headed up to a friend’s weed farm in the mountains for some much needed R&R. Unfortunately, she was also without phone service, leading her mother to file a missing person report. That Martinez was technically a missing person didn’t become common…
For me, at least, most seasons of The Bachelor begin with a whimper. It’s hard to tell the contestants apart or care about them at all (particularly when four of them are named Lauren), The Bachelor in his human form tends to be a hollowed-out tree trunk of a person, and the emotional reactions and inter-house…
