ABC Chooses Its New 'Bachelorette'
ABC has
chosen it's new "Bachelorette" and just like the last several girls
chosen for the show, she's a familiar face. 26-year-old DeAnna Pappas, who
failed to find love on last season's "The Bachelor," is the chosen one.
Pappas made it all the way down to the final two women only to find out that
Bachelor Brad Womack had rejected both she and Jenni Croft, her competition.
Why this
Campbellsville, Kentucky native would put herself through this torture again, I
have no idea. The last two “Bachelorette’s” both ended up single.
Jen Schefft
rejected both of her suitors' marriage proposals in the show's season three
finale. Season two’s Merideth Phillips got engaged to banker Ian McKee only to
breakup after a year together.
Then again, the very first Bachelorette, Trista Ryan, remains the show’s only true success story -- having married her hot fireman, Ryan Sutter. The couple recently had a baby, Maxwell.
This
will be the first time though that a “Bachelorette” version of the show
has aired in three years. While “The Bachelor” (who has yet to be
revealed) enters its 12th season in March, this will only be the fourth
incarnation of the series.
So
what gives? Why too is this show airing during the summer instead of
during the prime spot after “Dancing with the Stars?” Is it a ratings
thing? Would women rather watch women claw at each other, rather
than watch one woman weed through 25 eligible men? I just don't get it.
i would have much rather seen jenni as the bachelorette. this de anna chick was so horrible, boring, and a downer! jenni had personality.
Leave Brad Womack alone, at least he was honest. We would rather have him be honest than announce later that they broke up. By far the hottest bachelor ever.
Yes, Katie, I agree with you. Jenni would have been better. Deanna was mean to the other girls, self-absorbed, and was without depth. Now i have No Bachelorette to watch this year.
Deanna was down to earth. She was sweet and nice and not a Cheerleader like Jenni. She really loved Brad. I guess it didn't take Jenni too long to fine someone...was'nt it her old boyfriend...spare me,please. Deanna now gets to choose her man..good for her.
I thought for sure Melissa was going to be the next Bachelorette. But I guess its too soon b/c she's still in love with dude.
