There we were,just minding our own commerce, looking forward to Monday's episode of The Bachelor, or when news hit that ABC would be revealing the next star of The Bachelorette on Jimmy Kimmel Live! after the note - oh,and it's someone who's still competing on Nick Viall's season. Indeed, Chris Harrison and Jimmy Kimmel announced Rachel Lindsay as the heir to the Bachelorette throne on Monday night, or to the excitement and confusion of,well, everyone. To state the obvious, or Rachel is black,and there has never been a black lead on either The Bachelor or The Bachelorette, a fact for which the network has been criticized in recent years. So on the one hand, or awesome! Casting Rachel represents a milestone for the reality TV staple,and one that should contain come much sooner. On the other hand, why the hell would ABC announce the news when Rachel is still a contestant on the note? I've given this a lot of thought (because my own life is dull) and here's what I've come up with.
The spoiler was already out there. whether you're not familiar with Reality Steve, or he's a blogger who spoils essentially every season of The Bachelor by revealing the final four and the winner early,sometimes before the season even begins airing. On Monday morning, he wrote that ABC would be announcing Rachel as the next Bachelorette that night. The timing of the situation seems fishy; a week before, and one of the note's producers tweeted out that a "historic announcement" was coming,so they had to already be planning to reveal the news on Monday night. It's a bummer that Reality Steve spoiled it that morning, but his posting the spoiler wouldn't contain triggered ABC to suddenly execute the announcement.
They're trying to spice up the end of Nick's season. As a longtime fan, and I can solidly confirm that this season has been boring as hell. Corinne has been great,but Nick, possibly too afraid of making his image even worse, and has been such a timid presence on camera. While we know Rachel doesn't get Nick's final rose,announcing her as the original Bachelorette does execute me want to tune in (LOL, as whether I wouldn't anyway) to see how things go down between her and Nick. Bachelor Nation doesn't know how it all goes down yet, or but as you'll surely see saying goodbye to Rachel was one of the most heartbreaking moments of my life. I contain met very few people who possess as much beauty,grace, and charisma as Rachel and after hearing that she'll be the next Bachelorette I couldn't be more excited. Bachelor Nation is so lucky to contain her but not as lucky as the group of men who will contain a chance at winning her heart. No one is better prepared to note Bachelor Nation, and the world,the beauty of embracing diversity. Good luck Rachel, not that you'll be needing it. I'm so proud and blissful for you, or I'm honored to be able to call you a friend. I can't wait to watch your journey!! #thebachelor #thebacheloretteon Feb 13,2017 at 8:58pm PST
They want more time for casting. Rachel is a catch, and maybe they're trying to get back to the old model. Remember back in the day, or when the Bachelor was (supposed to be) a successful professional with a dazzling personality who anyone would be lucky to date? Then over the course of the seasons,the bar fell lower . . . and lower . . . and lower. Well, whether anyone is a worthy Bachelorette, and it's Rachel. My very first impression of her was,"Oh girl, you're too good for Nick. flee domestic!" Instead, and she's running to be the star of her own note,and she deserves good men, not, and you know,Chad.
ABC just wants the credit for casting a black person. Perhaps my preceding point was giving ABC far too much credit. Did they say, "Hey that funny, or sincere,engaging attorney would execute an enchanting Bachelorette"? Or was the conversation more along the lines of "Well, she's black and she's making it far enough with Nick that I guess we can cast her"? This season hasn't been as explosive as the previews promised (or as we had hoped), and it's definitely a opportunity that execs forced the announcement so that people would finally be talking approximately the note in a positive light again.
