Я думаю, что поскольку сезон получался довольно скучным, то пригласили в него Ника, чтобы его оживить, посмотрим...
Вчерашный выпуск многим не понравился...
Теперь думаю, что у оргов не было сильной кандидатуры на Холостячку, а потому сделали 2, чтобы парни выбирали...

Kaitlyn Bristowe's Bachelorette Premiere Blog:

Well … if you would have told this edgy little gal a year ago that I would be writing a blog for PEOPLE as one of two Bachelorettes duking it out against each other for love, I would have done my fat-man laugh. I would think you were nuts, but here I am!

When I was approached with the idea of two Bachelorettes, I was definitely not jumping for joy. It was more like, pouting for hours. I thought about it for days. Why would I do this to myself? And then I realized the world I was living in. It's 2015, people are swiping and linking on Tinder, meeting online and dating on TV. So I thought to myself: Kaitlyn, this is just an incredible opportunity to meet a man you could spend the rest of your life with. Clearly whatever I've been doing in the real world isn't reeling in the best caliber of men. I had to know there could be light at the end of the tunnel. Or maybe I should say love at the end of the tunnel! There is it, ladies and gentlemen, my first cheesy line of the blog. But I mean it!

All of a sudden I am one of two Bachelorettes, at Cary Fetman's place – Cary is the stylist for the show and also one of my favourite people EVER. I spelled favourite the Canadian way. Just let me have that. Anyway, racks of expensive clothes, gowns and shoes surrounded me. Every girl's dream, right? Wrong! I wear T-shirts and backwards hats and buy my shoes at Payless! Shopping isn't my jam, but I was excited to play dress-up with the talented stylist. And being the Bachelorette (or one of two) means being glam. Cary, if you're reading this, you truly are a saint for putting up with me. And, now that I think of it, I have a new appreciation for clothes.

Странно, женщинам больше нравится "Холостячка", а не "Холостяк". Это я должен жаловаться, что главная героиня - не самая красивая девушка прошлого "Холостяка". По моему мнению, самой красивой была Бекка, но как Холостячка - очень скучная, с непонятной сексуальностью. А самой нудной из прошлых Холостячек, по-моему, была Дезире. Но зато у неё пара сложилась.

Что интересно, вчера в выпуске Кейтлин сказала Купаху, что если бы он ей сказал, что его это свидание не привлекает и это не его, то она бы вошла в его положение и пошла ему на встречу! Во как, никакой обязаловки!

Мне, наверное, интересней смотреть на девушек, они бывают глубже, мне нравятся интересные личности, а их бывает не так много. Вот сезон с Шарлин я бы посмотрела с удовольствием, она непредсказуема!
Триста мне запомнилась из 1 Холостяка, не могу сказать, что Триста мне так уж безумно нравилась, но сезон ее был очень удачным и мне очень понравился Райан и у них сложились классные отношения. Мне очень нравилась Эмили и я с удовольствием с ней знакомилась и на Холостяке и в ее сезоне Холостячки, прямо ее присутствие доставляло мне радость! И в Ари я просто влюбилась и Джеф мне был интересен.
Энди мне не нравилась, но даже ее сезон как то был интересней. Но там парень погиб, все были как на иголках.
Кейтлин мне понравилась в прошлом сезоне больше всех в итоге, кроме избранницы. Но пока она никакая. Но она сама сказала, что в первом впечатлении она проигрывает, посмотрим, может как то начнет раскрываться. А то поцелуев полно, а каких то интересных разговоров практически нет.
Бекку забраковали даже для BIP, она не умеет создавать отношения.
Я надеялась, нам больше покажут про отношения Бритт, но там все оooчень тоненьким пунктиром... :rolleyes:
В общем пока никакой блубины ни в чем, а интрига только в том, с кем же Кейтлин переспит. Я после этого анонса даже подумала, может не ту Холостячку выбрали? В общем, пока подтверждаю свои догадки, посмотрим...пока некого там мне смотреть на шоу...вчера вообще фоном смотрела...
Ладно, Ник появится, будем на Ника смотреть... :meeting:
И решила почитать блог Кетлин, может проникнусь.... :dntkw:
:p.s: Что интересно, в прошлом выпуске мне оказались более интересны "деревенские" парни, о которых раньше думала, что они уйдут в первый же вечер. :rolleyes:

читаем блог Кетлин дальше...

Now, usually the Bachelorette would jump into a limo, excited and eager to stand in front of the Bachelor mansion, knowing she could potentially be meeting her husband. That's got to be one of the wildest, most unbelievable feelings. You are on the receiving side, the power is in your hands, and these men are nervous as hell to impress you or they could be going home. Well, not this season. This time around there were two of us and WE had to impress the men, knowing one of US could be going home. Holy pressure.

Everyone asks, "What was your strategy going into this?" And the only thing I could think of was just to be Kaitlyn. Laugh, be sincere and make the guys feel comfortable. And, to be honest, once the first limo pulled up and I accepted the awkward situation, we did have some fun! I would look over at Britt, and we would giggle. The guys were more nervous than we were, which took the pressure off! And just to go back to my strategy for a second … when I ran inside to say hi to the guys, I wasn't trying to be unfair or discourteous. That was never a game plan or strategy. It was meant to be a sweet gesture. We were waiting for another limo, and it was a few minutes late. I heard all the guys inside laughing and having fun, and I had a split second of FOMO (fear of missing out). I wanted to just run in, say hi and tell them how great they were. I remember that night being so long with Chris Soules and thinking how nice it would be for him to run in and just say hi! Sorry if that felt rude, Britt!!

<center></center>Overall, I was just so impressed with the quality of these men. One definitely gave me that feeling I was looking for when it came to first impressions. So after a motorized cupcake, a strip tease, a car "pool" (hahaha, I'm still laughing) and some incredible dudes, it was time to head into the mansion. It was intimidating to walk into a room of that many handsome faces. It takes a lot for me to be speechless. But having 25 babe sodas staring at me will do it. So what do I do? Tell a joke. CLASSIC KAITLYN. I wanted to make the guys feel comfortable, and I knew I had all night to talk to them about what I was looking for in a husband. Britt killed it; you nailed that speech, girl. I like to think she was speaking for both of us. I really was looking at these men wanting to find a best friend to love for the rest of my life. I should have spoken from the heart, my bad.

Let the mad scramble begin. The poor guys had to try to get to know two women in a matter of hours and decide who they might want to marry … not date, MARRY. Kind of a big deal, like WHAT??

Every time I sat down with one of the guys, I would think, Well it's not going to get better than this! And then the next guy would come along, and I'd think, Okay, wait, it can't get better than this … fast-forward to 25 guys later, and I'm convinced we have the best group of guys in all of the land. When Clint revealed that picture of Chris Harrison riding a triceratops, I almost died. He is funny AND talented! I love when a guy has some sort of talent.

<center></center>Chris S. … cute AND successful. Usually I avoid the dentist – not this one. Chris was so easy to talk to, you can tell he has a full heart and wants to find that person to spend life with. Hearing about who these men were, where they came from and what they wanted made me SO hopeful and happy. They opened up to me, shared things with me and put it all out there. Going home was not an option. Unless you're Ryan M. … then you are definitely going home. I'm surprised I didn't smack that guy in the face and walk him out myself. Who does that guy think he is? He was inappropriate, disrespectful and not taking this seriously. I'm all for having a good time, but that was just next level. I had secondhand embarrassment for him watching that back. Not cool Ryan.

Enter Chris Harrison. Like I said, it's all fun and games until Chris Harrison walks into the room. He announced that a vote would have to be made. I can't describe the feeling in that moment. Excitement, shock, horror, nerves … you name it, I felt it. Waiting around to learn your fate (while being reminded how great the guys are) is emotionally exhausting. Either way this was going to go, I knew it would be hard. I like Britt. I don't want anyone's feelings to get hurt. Everyone deserves love, and knowing one of us would feel heartbreak again made me sick to my stomach (I noticed I say that A LOT) …. Then Chris came out and told me how the voting went … He said … okaaaaaay, we know I can't do that.

Kaitlyn Bristowe's Bachelorette Blog: 'The Power Was Back in My Hands'
<center></center>THERE YOU HAVE IT!!! I can finally say that I, Kaitlyn Bristowe, am the Bachelorette. What a whirlwind. When Chris Harrison told me the news, of course I was excited. But the first thing that came to mind was, 'How is Britt?' I wanted to run to her and give her a huge hug and make sure she was okay. Britt is a strong woman, so I knew she would handle it well, but that's just not something anyone would want to go through. It was without a doubt the strangest mix of emotions all at once.

I did feel guilty being excited because I knew someone's feelings were hurt. But I was grateful, eager and relieved. As the excitement took over, I was sooo stoked I got to call my mom! I knew how happy she would be for me and that my whole family was probably anxious. I had just been through such a roller coaster of a night, there were so many conversations and emotions happening, I couldn't comprehend doing another cocktail party and then having my first rose ceremony. It was the longest and the best night of my life.

I was thrilled to walk around that corner when Chris Harrison announced me as the Bachelorette. But, at the same time, how could I not wonder who would be disappointed? Life is about connections, and some people have better chemistry with others. That don't make you bad people. When you have a group of men and two different women, it's to be expected that the room could be split. But let me tell you, hearing those guys cheer and seeing the smiles on their faces when I walked into the room was a moment I will never forget. Watching that back, I actually got emotional. The reactions from guys like Ian and Shawn B. were so sincere it brought tears to my eyes. It was a great feeling to know there were guys in the group that were genuinely excited.

Sharleen Joynt on The Bachelorette: Episode Three:
<center></center>Oh, the irony. Just last week I theorized that the men cast on The Bachelorette were the sort who spend a lot of time on their biceps but who tragically wouldn’t ever be permitted to put those biceps to use. In fantastic news for Ben Z, our resident real-life Incredible Hulk, the very first group date would entail sparring in a boxing ring. But to ensure the ambulance sounds and ominous “someone’s hurt” music that come with every competitive sport group date in the history of this show, they pit 225-pound Ben Z against 170-pound Jared in the final round, a move that outraged my expert-in-all-things-boxing fiancé, Andy. Andy trains and spars daily and said he would never compete against someone more than 20 pounds heavier than him. Some quotes thrown out during that date: “Floyd Mayweather would have a hard time against someone 55 pounds heavier!” and “That Jared guy could have DIED!” Good job, team!

The fight that had my sleeves rolled up, however, was the one between Kaitlyn and Kupah at the rose ceremony cocktail party. Believe me, I have some sense of the apprehension that comes with feeling like you’re in the ethnic minority, and certainly no one has ever given the Bachelor franchise any awards for diversity. But Kupah’s gripes reeked of early-Bachelorette-process insecurity, not of any actual evidence of discrimination. Speaking from experience and having been inside the Bachelor/ette world, let me be very clear: whether you’re short or tall, thin or curvy, Christian or Jewish, black or white, or any of the innumerable shades of grey…insecurity doesn’t discriminate. Unless you get the first impression rose or a date rose of any kind—meaning a direct and very literal form of encouragement—you’re wondering where you stand. Hell, even if you DO get one of those, you’re still not sure!

<center></center>Kupah had neither made any effort to get to know Kaitlyn, nor given her any insight into what he’s about (other than having a chip on his shoulder). How about showing some curiosity about the woman you are supposedly pursuing, rather than opening with, “I’m curious if I’ve made any kind of impression…I haven’t really felt like whenever we’ve talked that there’s been any connection.” Smooth. Nothing warms a woman to you like putting her on the defensive from the get-go.

Can I also point out the fact that last week Kupah was very vocal about being #TeamBritt? It struck me as a bit hypocritical for him to advertise his attraction to and connection with another woman and yet, when said woman didn’t win the vote, still stick around and require hand-holding and validation from his second choice. This has nothing to do with colour and everything to do with quiet confidence and maturity (or lack thereof). Lay off the whiskey and grow a pair, Kupah.

Rant over! My frontrunners this week are…
<center></center>Clint, 27: Who wasn’t won over by his fantastic drawing of Chris Harrison on a triceratops? Clint comes off bright and possibly to-a-fault modest, a combination I always look for and appreciate. He has a twinkle in his eye and sees the humour in everything around him, and I like that he doesn’t seem to thrive off the cameras. I spy solid chemistry with Kaitlyn, too.

Shawn B., 28: I’m not fooled by his lack of airtime this week. He got the F.I.R., and in true frontrunner form wasn’t on a single date this week. (I, too, received the F.I.R.-but-no-date formula.) We don’t know any more about Shawn B. than we did last week, but it doesn’t matter. He’s still a top contender.

<center></center>Ian, 28: I really dig Ian and think Kaitlyn does, too. He’s warm and seems intelligent and really seems to have his priorities in order. Based on his recounting of his back story, you can tell he knows what matters and what doesn’t. Plus he’s just yummy to look at.

Jared, 26: Jared’s doing a lot of things right. I like that he doesn’t look like the prototypical Bachelorette jock. I like that he was so honest last week and admitted to Kaitlyn that he voted for Britt. (It amazed me that he was the only one to do this.) I like that he took his time with Kaitlyn to go for a walk and assertively—yet not aggressively—plant one on her. Let’s also not forget that he bravely stood up to a guy who could eat him for breakfast. Yay, Jared!

Kaitlyn Bristowe's Bachelorette Blog: The Date Moment That Was 'My Worst Nightmare'

Waking up that next morning as the Bachelorette was a surreal feeling. There was so much happening that first night, I think it was still taking its time to sink in. I mean, it's not every day you wake up in a beautiful house with Chris Harrison knocking at your door. But I will admit, I was so relieved to see him. There was a lot to process, and having him there to help talk me through it was much needed.

I couldn't believe that in just one night connections had already begun to develop. And there I sat, lucky enough to be the Bachelorette and eagerly awaiting my first week of dates. In the back of my mind, I had to wonder, Which of these guys voted for Britt and who voted for me? And how was Britt doing? But I couldn't allow those thoughts to take over. I had a great group of guys ready to kick these dates off with, and that's where my focus needed to be.

I knew starting it off with a boxing group date would be a hit ... literally. See what I did there?! I couldn't wait for my first date as the Bachelorette, and what better way than to see these guys hot, sweating and shirtless? Truthfully, what girl doesn't want a guy who can fight for her and protect her? And training with undefeated world champion boxer Laila Ali was an experience I will never forget! I could probably take her, but I decided to let the guys do the fighting (haha ... JK, Laila, don't hurt me!).
Training with the guys was the best way to find out who had the skills. And who knew Corey and I had such good jump-rope game? I had a blast getting to spend some one-on-one time with some of the guys while we trained. Jared thought he was sooo funny with his little sparring trick, which I have to admit was pretty cute. It was great to have some of the guys make time to come over and talk with me while training. Except Kupah, who I guess was just really into his training ….

<center></center>I was excited for Laila to announce that the guys would be boxing each other! The looks on their faces were priceless. Let the adrenaline and testosterone commence! I have to admit, they all looked really good in their fighting gear. Having a live crowd only made it more exciting. But, to be honest, I was a little concerned the guys might let their competitiveness outweigh their concern for safety. My stomach dropped once Ben Z. and Daniel began to fight. Ben Z. ain't tiny y'all. And it only seemed to get worse as each match started. As the guys fought harder and harder, I started to think maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all.
When Ben Z. and Jared stepped into the ring for that final match, I was terrified. I think you could actually see my heart beating out of my chest! At least it felt like it. The hit Jared took was my worst nightmare. Although I was excited for Ben Z. to win the belt, I couldn't stop thinking of Jared. Knowing he'd been hurt and couldn't join the afterparty made me so sad. But I had to put my focus on the guys who were there.
