Bachelor 12 Media Thread - Page 29

I'm not sure where to post articles anymore, but here's a new one from today's Denver Post with Chelsea

Durnago’s Chelsea kicked to the curb by “Bachelor” : The Peek

Chelsea Wanstrath, 25, came thisclose to making the final cut on “The Bachelor.”

The Durango native was one of the last two in the reality series when Brit bachelor Matt Grant kicked her to the curb Monday night.

She cried a river on TV — but sounded upbeat on the phone from Santa Barbara this week, where she’s a pharmaceutical rep.

“I went through the emotions of being dumped,” she said. “But it’s like any other break-up. You gotta move on and get over it.”

It was looking pretty rosy for awhile.

Her parents liked Matt during his visit to Durango, where he and Chelsea played in the snow and posed for a vintage photograph in cowboy gear.

And Chelsea’s competition was Shayne Lamas, 22, the diminutive actress-daughter of Lorenzo Lamas, a meal-away blonde who Matt called “Monkey.”

But Matt proposed to “Monkey” on Monday and sent Chelsea packing.

“He could marry her,” said Chelsea. “He proposed to her, so I suppose he should. Who knows?”

Chelsea has no regrets. She had to lay low until Monday so people would think she’s was still in the game. Now she’s ready to date again.

“It was intense and so much fun,” she said. “I made good friends and traveled to some great places.”

More TV ahead?

“I don’t think so. I didn’t do this to become a reality TV star. That’s not my career goal.”

Thanks Casualfan, the US Shayne/Matt interview was a funny read!
They do sound together, but at other times not so. After talking everyday or 50 emails/text messages and 5 or 6 long weekends together ... they still are finding stuff about each other that they didn't know during the interview!

I can only imagine it's hard to imagine people picking apart your every word and movements during interviews. My own opinion is that they have come across quite real and in love. They don't have to be falling all over each other to be in love. The US weekly interview had some great little nuggets that I hadn't heard before

I don't find this shocking or odd at all. I have been married to my husband for four years and dated for six, and I still learn new things about him... things that you would think having lived together for five years I would have known long ago.

I doubt during their encounters they had a "tell me everything there is to know about you, and go slow so I can take notes" type conversation.

Same goes for my husband and me.

Sorry to sound obtuse, but what in the world is a "meal-away blonde "?

I think that might be the reporter's referrence to the "one sandwich shy of a picnic" comment that Matt said without actually repeating the comment...
