Emily Maynard is the new Bachelorette?

I just read this on people.com...I guess after her and Brad broke up they saw her as a possible new bachelorette...They are going to film where she lives so she won't be away from her daughter...I am hoping this time she finds someone that is not a total jerk...

Re: Emily Maynard is the new Bachelorette?

  • Ummm....yeah.  I'm not even an overly judgmental person and I'm judging for this.

    Yeah..I don't know what is the deal with them bringing back all of these people for the second go around..It is like they are pushing them to find someone..I don't think I would like to find a person I am sort of pushed towards and then have it work out...Kudos to Trista and Ryan for being an inspiration to the show because I think they are the only success story that this show has...Is Emily really going to find her "true love" with this go around? (Me shaking my head right now lol..)

    All of this, plus for someone who was supposedly so protective of her daughter and only looking for love (not the publicity and fame,) why would you put her in a position to have to meet new men who aren't going to be in her life, have to be in front of the cameras she was SO shy around the first time etc? The chances of finding love on this show are not good. You tried it once and it didn't work. I just don't think you can be so flip about it when you have a child involved.

  • I'm so happy that my brother found an awesome girlfriend and pulled himself out of the contestant pool!

    Guess this means I am not a fan of her.

  • Yuck, she annoys the crap out of me.  I think she's a phony.  I am another person who's so sick of the retreads.

    I probably will read the spoilers but not watch this season, just like I am with the Bachelor.

  • I'm not excited about this. She's kind of boring. But The Bachelor/ette has a way of sucking me in each and every time.

  • I'm disappointed in her because she said that after her experience on the Bachelor and when everything went sour with Brad, she wanted to stay out of the spotlight and focus on raising her daughter, and had no intentions of doing the Bachelorette.

    Confession, I'll definitely be on the lookout for the season being filmed here in Charlotte!
  • What are they going to do on their dates if they stay in one place?  I mean, after all, you can't find love unless you're on a helicopter or in a foreign country or in a 5 star hotel.

    I used to watch the Bachelor and Bachelorette too..I honestly am not following this season too much. These same people who are back again are just ridiculous...You would think they would look else where with love...Yeah I don't think she is a good fit for a go around again..

    Was your brother going to be on the show? I am glad he found someone without having to have it played out on national tv...I think the show is so over scripted too...I am just waiting for People or some other magazine to say that previous contestant Ashley and JP have broken up...No one really stays together on that show!!

    Guess this means I am not a fan of her.

  • Oh gee, that sounds like it's going to be lots of fun to watch. Tongue Tied

  • I agree with pp'ers.. I can't imagine doing the show with a child, and lol to the 'can't find love without 5star hotels' etc.  They put these people in a utopian situation and so of course they find love!  Meanwhile things like arguing over $$ are leading causes of divorce.  I just hope her kid doesn't get caught up in any drama.
  • I'm really bummed about this actually.

    There's something about her that screams "I want to be a celebrity."    This is probably super flammable, but here goes:

    The love of her life Ricky Hendricks wasn't exactly a looker.    No way a guy like that would have landed a girl like her without being super duper rich and somewhat famous.  So, I always have gotten the golddigger vibe from her (she lives in a huge house and all, paid for by the Hendricks family so they can see their grandchild). 

    Then, on that season, she claimed she was upset to be at the Nascar track, but then she dated Dale Earnhardt Jr. for a while.  That seemed phoney.    She also dated another d-lister.   He's some club promoter who was famous for about 5 minutes because he dated someone famous.  Maybe Alyssa Milano or Mischa Barton or something like that.   

    So, when you have a girl who dates a string of "celebrities" and then goes on the Bachelor, it seems to me she's just looking for either a famous mate or a big break. 

  • ITA with all of this.  I was also thinking that these Bachelor/Bachlorette people get paid, no?  Maybe she's in it for some big, easy money.

  • The funniest part is that I read Bentley (from Ashley's season) will be on the show.  Oh lord.
