Feb 24: Bachelor Tell All, tells too much

Remind me why I watch this show, when I watch Tell All. Silly show.
First we see part of the Roz scandal, and Jake more or less saying "If anyone else isn't here for me, don't wait for the Rose Ceremony." I have to admit I felt badly for him, there. That would totally suck, to be the Bachelor, and some bimbo does something with a producer. Who knows what? But something. I'd feel like shit, if I were Jake. I don't like planes very much, so thank GOD I'm not Jake.

It moves on to that ridiculous Elizabeth chick. "Don't kiss me, but I'll shag you if you like." That's the impression I got. If she had made it to the Fantasy Suite deal, she'd have been all over him. Period. Don't you think? I had to laugh at him kissing her forehead, and the look on his face after. "WTF did I just do?" was plain to see. Cracked me up.

I'm skipping over the bungee jump. That was just silly.

We hear Jake's fakest of all laughs when he and Tenley both write 'Kiss me' on their fortune cookies. Don't believe me? Go replay it again, and cover his mouth with your hand. Laughter never reaches those eyes. Spooky, if you ask me.

On to Allie. "Allie left in love with me, and me with her." I cry bullshit. If he was really in love with her, he'd have stopped her from leaving by any means at all. Wouldn't he? Even if he had to take her away from the cameras and say "Listen. Technically I can't say this, because I'm supposed to be in love with several women. But you - I really do love you. Don't go." If he'd said that, you think she would have gone? Not in a million years. He just wasn't quite as invested in that relationship as she was, and the chick knew it. Smart chick. She bailed.

I have nothing to say about all the old bachelors and bachelorettes. Who cares, after all? Bunch of monkey sex going down, nuff said.

The charity work is a good thing. Of course, they could do a lot more. LOT more. Ten grand to Haiti ain't much.

Finally we get to the ladies of this season. About time. "I think she dreams in cartoons." (Vienna, talking about Tenley.) Now, THAT is funny. LOLOL All the Disney cracks, too. Goody Two Shoes bought it and paid for it tonight, I must say.

The entire Roz affair got discussed. For me, it was all bullshit. No one saw her on the stairs lying on top of the producer. Come on. WHO would be that stupid? Especially since they have nothing to do with each other now. Ya know, I'd buy it if they were together now. And CH would make damn sure that we knew they were together, if such were the case. Fleiss would love that. Of course, since it's all BS, that ain't gonna happen.

Poor Gia. Just couldn't tell him how she felt, and is now aware that's probably why she lost him. Gorgeous thing that she is, I thought for sure he'd get rid of Tenley first.

This Michele chick is nuts. Fun to watch. Wanted to kiss him, and he didn't want any. I thought it was pretty smart of ole Jake to 'kick her to the curb.' She is clueless. Totally. Emotionally unstable is the understatement. I was embarrassed for her.

On to Allie. If I hear 'forced to make this decision' one more time, I'll barf. You mean to tell me she didn't know, going in, that Facebook would only give her X number of days off?? Of course she knew. Got to hand it to her. She spoke of Vienna being trashed in the tabloids, and said "Stay strong." Probably just words out of Fleiss's mouth for the next Bachelorette BUT it was nice to hear, all the same.

Finally Roz comes out. I hear she gives CH hell, and I hope she does. LOL I notice one thing straight away. They're cutting every word out of her mouth. She says "Absolutely" and opens her mouth to say something else and... no. They cut her off. That whole thing about CH and his son. And tales of unicorns, and the truth. This man wouldn't know the truth if it bit him on the ass. Why would Roz lie? It's all over, now. Done deal. She's off the show.

Unless.

Unless there's something in her contract, where they can dock her a good amount of money for playing around, for inappropriate behavior. Something that's going to cost her, if she tells the real truth. Hey, it's possible. I've seen these contracts, and they OWN your ass. For years.

It gets more interesting. She asks why they didn't tape the funny business. She has a point. So does CH. There's a lot of downtime, and a producer would damn well know where to go to avoid cameras. On the steps, for instance. Not many camera crews hang out there, at night. So this point is a wash. Neither side wins.

We do learn that the producer came by where she lives, and even brought Dad with him. Doesn't mean diddley. CH says "A mountain of evidence." I wouldn't go that far. Girls have NEVER lied on a show like this, correct? And isn't it convenient that they waited until this show was shot to tell their tales? They have zero proof, according to CH. No video exists. Just a few witnesses, who could well be lying for their own reasons (they were told to? It was fun to invent?)

What if they ARE telling the truth? I haven't seen much discussion about that, but I don't keep up the way I should. If they're telling the truth, she could be sued by Fleiss, assumably. It could possibly get ugly for her. She could be still seeing this producer, for all we know. Or he could blame her for losing a choice job. One could add, where's there's smoke, this much smoke, there's probably fire. Something inappropriate probably happened. We may never know the whole story, but thanks to Steve, we'll know as much as her contract permits her to say. Which won't be a hell of a lot.

If she just responds to each woman's accusations, I'll be a happy camper. Especially the one where she was lying on him on the steps. And where WAS she that one night she wasn't in her bed and couldn't be found?

I for one hope she nailed the producer. He was probably cuter than Jake, had more on the ball. Could do more for her career, too. Depending on what career she chooses, of course. Jeez. I just heard her accuse CH of hitting on the producer's wife in New Zealand. Could she have any less class? I'm more inclined to believe the other girls, now. And I sure as hell believe she has a contract that will strangle her.

I'm just going to say this. Last summer, a similar earth shaking episode happened on Big Brother, and a girl was kicked out of the house. It was a whole lot of he said she said, but we had live feeds, so we knew a lot of it.

But they cut those feeds off at some vital periods, and of course we couldn't see into the Diary Room.

The girl came to me and wanted to tell her story. Oh yeah, I thought. This is going to be good. Then I wound up tangled in CBS legal, and it was no fun at ALL. I promised I would never tell all she told me, and she told me the whole thing. One little piece I'll share, as it's cropped up elsewhere.

She claims the Diary Room producers tried to convince her to have an affair with one of the other contestants. And that's still not as explosive as all I promised not to tell, and never will.

So Steve is brave, doing what he's doing. ABC Legal could WELL land on his ass like a ton of bricks. The thing to do, for future reference, and this is what I learned: if you land a huge tell all interview like that, don't say one damn word about it.

Keep your mouth shut. Do the interview, (mine was a radio interview,) and go on and publish it. They can sure as hell make you pull it (that's happened to me too) but in the meantime, the story is published everywhere else. Best you believe it will wind up being discussed ad nauseum on Jokers.

Back to Bachelor. Jake finally comes out. Very typical stuff here. Gia he's sorry he hurt. Allie was a big decision that hurt him. The bloopers were cute, including the obligatory fart one. Or two.

We review Vienna's affair with Jake, and onto Tenley's. Damned if they don't discuss her ex. I was wondering if this would the ONE show where we didn't hear about that ex. Mine was worse than hers, and you guys never heard about him, did ya? Hmmmm. I smell a future blog.

Speaking of liars. "I can definitely see Tenley in my life for the next 60 years." Sure you can. That why you chose Vienna?

Interesting show, in parts. A lot of it was the same old. I did enjoy the Roz shenanigans. Especially when she told Chris he'd gone after that producer's wife. LOL his face was priceless. They HAD to air that... contract or no contract, every woman in that room would have posted that somewhere.

Probably not before Steve did!!!
