Media Stories on Bachelor 8 and 9

[MsFroggy]

It seems poor Erica equates a college degree with everything from class to brains. Having a tattoo automatically renders a person unacceptable and having no college degree, sadly, means that said person is even more worthless. However, it is good to know that if one does not possess a college degree, a carreer in soap operas is still seen as acceptable and the demands of this line of work constitute a worthy excuse for not going to college. Would that mean that it is okay to be stupid, uneducated, uncouth and in every way inferior to Erica, by her own standards, so long as someone's on television?

I strongly suspect that Erica wouldn't be able to hold an intelligent conversation with a tree stump if her life depended on it but I'm glad she has a college degree, whatever way she came by it. Wouldn't want to have an empty spot there on the wall next to daddy's framed diploma now, would we?

Compete? Did The Insider give us something new??? Is that how Jami gets the Cinderella date? Did she win the physical challenge? Outwit Erica? Outlast Desiree?

The Bachelor meets Survivor. This time on The Bachelor.

So did Lorenzo meet the girl of his dreams on "The Bachelor"? He says he has and he even gave her a ring -- but he won't say who she is or what "kind" of ring.

Looks like our ring shot is legit. A legitimate "friendship ring".

I have been in contact with her. These secret meetings are occurring.

Sounds like true love. Either that or Lorenzo is at least living up to his contract. Either way, this "relationship" is certain to last longer than Travis'.

Train wreck upon train wreck, and I still hold hope of a happy ending for this show. Isn't that a sign of insanity?

At least there's the sleuthing!

Does it seem like he's changed his opinion of the situation in the interim between the Ellen show and the Insider interview? On Ellen he was in love and now - he's still "in contact" with this really sweet girl.

Lara from the Insider asked him if he had met that special someone. She didn't ask him if he was in love, so he responded accordingly. In all of the interviews I have seen Ellen is the only one who asked him directly if he was in love.

I have no doubt that Lara Spencer avoided using the L word on purpose. There have been other, earlier interviews where he did use it however. Cant wait for Kimmel.

too funny!! The blog entry in "Whiticisms" is equally entertaining. That apple sure stayed close to the tree!

Support from friends
Nicole Fertitta, who has known Rose for seven years, says the show offers a distorted view of her friend.

Nicole Fertitta must be of the Tilman Feritta family. He's the guy who owns all the Landry's restaurants (Joe's Crab Shack, Rainforest Cafe, etc). He's from Galveston (Jamie's home town) and HQ'd in Houston. He and his family attend a lot of the same social events around town as the Roses.

How funny you should mention him. I live here in Kemah and his helicopter is always landing on the boardwalk. His Mom is sweet though, before I went to work for a Law Firm she was one of my good customers when I ran the Chico's clothing store on the strand in Galveston.

I can't get the link to work
Have you been listening to Erica on Mix 96.5? She has been on every Monday and she drives the DJ's nuts.

Why would they bring her back?? She is another Trish!

Here is a press release for next week's show.

Six ladies remain, and two receive one-on-one dates after winning a “truth exercise” devised by a previously eliminated bachelorette. One woman is treated to a carriage ride that includes stops at the Trevi Fountain and the Vatican. And the other gets a plane ride (Lorenzo's the pilot) to ancient baths for pampering and romance. Speaking of ancient Rome, four bachelorettes race chariots. And in other athletic activity, two women do some skinny-dipping. At the end, Lorenzo bestows four roses.

They are bringing Erica back for entertainment value and to give the truth exercise to the remaining bachelorettes.
