The Bachelor

 

*please read my guest post Here *

I stay away from reality tv shows but I can’t help but notice they exist. They come in all shapes and forms but really, I think there are only two different types. Type A would be like Survivor, Big Fat Loser and Hells Kitchen. You know, shows that actually require skill or geniuine competition. Type B is the straight trash. Any reality show on VH1 falls under this category. They consist of old celebrities who can’t find a date on their own.

If my daydreams came true, I would be on The Bachelor. I know, I know- only rich, white dudes who don’t abuse alcohol make it on there but can’t they have like a charity/sympathy series? What single guy wouldn’t want 20 or so hot chicks fighting over them?

It wouldn’t be like flavor of love or Tila whatever (I refuse to call her Tequila. That’s my favorite drink and shes not worthy). Those shows are so trashy because of the contestants that they pull straight from the trailor parks all over America. It seems like The Bachelor is kind of all about looks and who can flirt the best (this may be a bit of an assumption as I haven’t really watched a whole show), so in my competition I would have sort of an olympic-style competition with events that are relevant to what kind of things I look for in a girl.

I’m not going into much detail as it may seem a bit sexist, so I will leave it at that. Have a good weekend…I’m going to send off my audition tape.

    I also agree that Tila doesn’t deserve Tequila. Jose C. is my boyfriend and I get disgusted even thinking that he’s cheating on me with that trash bag.

    Yeah, I’d like to be on The Bachelorette. That would be pretty sweet!

    I’m over Tila Tequila. I watched the first season, and it’s just stupid she had to go for a second season. I like most of VH1’s reality shows. But NOT Flavor of Love or any spin-off related to that show. THAT is trash!

    I would totally vote for you to be the next bachelor, but only on the condition that you secretly let me know everything that goes on behind the scenes.

    I’d watch that show.

    The potentially olympic attributes of your future “gal” intrigue me. Although, I completely respect your withholding of information. You crack me up, and I’d hate to think you were a sexist. ^__^

    I submitted a tape to that show that used to be on MTV. I forget the name but the premise was that regular people got to meet famous people. One kid met Tara Lipinski another met Christina Aguilera. I wanted to meet Nomar Garciaparra.

    Anyway after your comments about Tila you NEED to read this post on Stuff Only I like. It’s hilarious.

    ugh. Tila Tequila is a giant herpe sore on America’s crotch, as far as I’m concerned.

    Alexa- Thanks!

    JK- exactly. Im a silver fan and I refuse to associate it with trash.

    Angela- wouldn’t it be great?

    Rachel Eden- Deal.

    Apollocreed- Thank you…

    Heather- yeah…some things are best left in my mind.

    YGIU- thank you for that. That was the best BASH of Tila ever. Loved it.

    Shamelessly Sassy- That was very well put!!

    I like the idea of deciding what events and competitions would be relevant to you and the perfect girl. I mean, if I were the bachelorette I would do things like: Send the boys into Neiman’s with a credit card and pick out whatever handbag they think I would like, then send them to the shoe department at Barney’s for the perfect pair of shoes…and then…I guess I would find the best gay man pretending to be straight ever LOL!

    guys who also get banned from golf don’t make it on the show either…hahaha

    I always wanted to be the next Bachleorette…I like the idea of 25 guys falling all over me. Plus they take everyone to some pretty nice places.

    i dont think i could handle being on (either) show (the bachelor or being the bachelorette). though, ill watch both, damn straight.

  13. 13 Matt June 20, 2008 at 7:37 pm

    Ringleader- Yes, that is exactly what you would find.

    Nachi- I know but nobodys perfect, right? They get to go everywhere!

    Brookem- I think it would be weird if you were one of the girls/guys…but not if youre “The Bachelor.”

    I hate those shows–all of those reality shows with wanna be actors. They’re so…annoying. I was especially insulted (yes! insulted!) but the newest Celebrity Circus series. I mean, come on. Why mock the one thing I hold dear? Ugh.

    I went to school with a girl who was one of the contestants on the original bachelor years ago, graduated with her in fact. You know the one from Idaho that cried a lot - woot my bachelor claim to fame :-)

    Ah-ha! So you have a “list” too. I definately let go of the non-important stuff. Everything on my list is a deal breaker. I would LOVE to know what is on yours (sexist or not). Girls need to hear this type of thing. I’ll show you mine if you show me yours. ha ha

  17. 17 P.O.M. June 20, 2008 at 10:24 pm

    I’m lame - just read that Heather already wrote that. Sorry. I probably wouldn’t really tell you my list, even if you told me yours. ha ha.

    It’s trashy TV but it’s so easy to get sucked in. Good luck. I hope you get picked :)

    haha at that comment above… herpes, america’s crotch. double true!

    Brody from the Hills is coming out with a reality show called Bromance. They are auditioning now, you should totally be on it.
