Bachelor 13 - Media **Spoilers**

But I can't verify it since I don't have access to Twitter, and have only seen the posts about the tweets.

I don't think you need to join... just go to twitter (dot) com / theperson's name... Jason's are either jasonmesnick or jason_mesnick ...

Oh thanks! I looked and think the bolded one is the real one.

This is really hilarious:

# Just watched the Bonnie Hunt appearance. Not bad (if I do say so myself)about 8 hours ago from web

# On 2nd thought - Ellen was much better...about 8 hours ago from web

Ya think?

"Too bad, so sad Jason". I'm sure Melissa being lied to, by you wasn't a fair representation of things....I just tried to watch Bonnie Hunt but couldn't stomach any more of his apologies. (And I love Bonnie Hunt)

Thanks for the info but I am a real skeptic when it comes to things like that.

It's my science training--I have to see proof--lots of it before I accept the claims.

I've heard that twitter is easily hacked too.

So there's a good chance that no--he did not say that.

I don't think that is his. There was something posted yesterday or earlier today that Jason said he hopes and thinks she will win. I don't know who posted or where, sorry.

EW interview

Wearing a sequined turquoise dress and dancing to a song that only days earlier was meant for Nancy O'Dell, Melissa Rycroft -- a.k.a. The Bachelor's most famous reject ever -- closed out the premiere of Dancing With the Stars Monday with a waltz to "show everybody I'm good, that I'm okay." Rycroft stepped in for O'Dell on the morning of March 7 after a knee injury forced the Access Hollywood host to quit the competition. Rycroft, who was dumped on national TV March 2 by Jason Mesnick, had already returned to Texas to resume her career as an event planner when she got the call about DWTS on the morning of March 6.

"I thought, 'What is going on now, I thought it was over!'" Rycroft told EW. She didn't appear frightened at the prospect of performing complicated steps on the ABC reality show, since she studied ballet in grade school before becoming a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. "They said they had a dropout and they would love for me to come and be the replacement. I sat there going, 'What?' Did they know who they just asked?'"

It took about an hour for Rycroft to say yes. Twenty-four hours later, she began rehearsals in Los Angeles with Tony Dovolani. Rycroft spent all weekend learning O'Dell's routine to "Moon River"; costumers even had to fit Rycroft with O'Dell's floor-length dress while she was learning the steps. "I thought, you know what? Here I go again! Why not?" said Rycroft, who harbors no ill-will toward ABC. "I signed up for The Bachelor, and while it didn’t go quite as I had hoped, everything worked out. I'm fine, and this is definitely helping me to move on from everything."

After Monday's premiere, Rycroft got a hug (and a microphone in her face) from O'Dell, who was doing post-show interviews while sporting a blue-toned knee brace that matched her strapless mini-dress (O'Dell's injury, a torn meniscus, will require surgery). O'Dell described her decision to drop out as "traumatic" and said it's even been hard to hear the strains of her waltzing song. "I was here when they were doing camera blocking and when I heard "Moon River," I called up my ortho doctor and said, 'Are you sure I can't do this?' I'm like, 'I can run really quick and get the cortisone shot and get my knee drained!'"

O'Dell, 43, also joked that it took Rycroft, 25, only two days to learn what she toiled over for a good two weeks. Melissa and Tony waltzed off with a score of 23.

twitter.com/jason_mesnick is his real one. There is a direct link to it from his new "single dad" (who has shared custody and gets child support) site. There seems to be a fake Jason twitter that uses jasonmesnick ...

Thank you for this! I felt tonight that Melissa wanted us to know that she is okay and I could see that she was. She did awesome!

That's okay--thanks. I've been trying to keep up too--but with so many posts I doubt that anyone really has a handle on it all.

We all just do our best.
