After ABC fooled us into thinking something real was going to happen last night, we finally made it to Week 1! It’s time for Juan Pablo to meet the girls and for us to pick our quick favorites of the moment before they slowly get eliminated. “El Bachelór Latino” speaks the language of love…just with an accent. Camila is so cute and even that dog on the boardwalk couldn’t keep his paws off Juan Pablo! Previous Bachelor Sean came back to give Sean some “tips” and here’s how it went…
Sean’s advice: “Kiss everyone, don’t pick anyone in the beginning”
Thanks Sean.
“It feels like you’re the meat and they want to eat you right there” That’s the point Juan Pablo.
Now let’s get to the girls.
Chelsie: The sunflowers are back. Easily the most annoying.
Renee: Sporty Colbie Callait. She’s also a mom – definitely one of my early favorites! Though already calling eachother “papi” and “mama” is a bit weird.
Amy J: Everything about her is uncomfortable, from massaging a client on camera, to pretending to feed Juan Pablo through the camera, and then “fainting” at the thought of Juan Pablo. Then when she actually met him…yikes. I think if Juan Pablo had kept her another week she would’ve snuck in his bedroom and stolen a lock of hair to keep with her at all times.
Lacy: Cares for the elderly and special needs. Might have been Mother Theresa in a past life.
Clare: Pretended to be pregnant and was the first to get a rose, how is this possible? I know the whole wedding dress thing got Lindsay to second place on Sean’s season but neither of those gimmicks were cute.
Christine: I thought getting a cute bracelet for Camila was the best idea, but apparently Juan Pablo did not agree.
Nikki: Was Juan Pabo checking her heart beat or her cleavage? You decide.
Lucy: Obviously the token crazy person of the season (see my post from last week explaining how her bio on the Bachelor website says she claims Kate Upton is her best friend). I hope she brought some shoes to wear throughout the season…
Lauren S: If you can’t push a piano, why bring it? At least we got to see Juan Pablo sprint to help her.
Alli: Either immediately friend zoned herself with the soccer ball or scored major points. Only time will tell.
Maggie: The battle of the accents. Southern with Spanish does not sound good to me.
Kelly: As if bringing her dog wasn’t enough, her occupation is Dog Lover. These girls have some, um, creative jobs this season.
Andi: Another one of my favorites so far! They seem like they already have natural chemistry, I’m surprised she didn’t get one of the first roses.
Kylie: And the award for most awkward rose ceremony moment goes to Kylie (your name is not Kat).
Most encounters were only the normal level of awkward…and then there was Sharleen.
“Will you accept the first impression rose?” – Juan Pablo
*long pause* “Um I guess that’s ok” –Sharleen
What?! Even if you weren’t immediately in love with the guy, wouldn’t you at least be excited that he picked you first? I see her as the next Brooks, except she’s definitely going to send herself home in the next 2-3 weeks.
Lauren: Lauren’s first mistake was going on the Bachelor a couple months after being dumped by her fiancé. The second (and third and fourth and fifth) was talking about it so much. The first girl to have a meltdown, and she seemed somewhat normal in the beginning. These are the girls the producers put on just to mess with their heads. I feel bad for Lauren, but then I’m just glad we don’t have to witness her break downs any more this season. But from the looks of it, the crazy has yet to be revealed.
