We go in hot.
Walking through the trap of thirst, Matt James has taken the reins as the sexiest man in America in the coming months with the start of season 25 of “The Bachelor”.
And his girls get angry: it looks like it’s going to be the hottest season in high school history. One of the contestants brought Matt a vibrator, one made a “WAP” reference. One got out of the limousine in lace underwear and made Matt grab his suit. Someone called him father in a promotion. We love to see it.
Although located on the cold east coast (Bachelor Mansion has temporarily moved to a luxury Pennsylvania resort), this season seems spicy with drama. And luckily for us, it comes just 13 days after the end of “The Bachelorette”.
This is what fell the first night.
Meet Matt
Unless you follow Tyler Cameron, Matt’s BFF, on Instagram, most viewers for a long time didn’t know Matt before tonight. He is biracial and was raised by a single mother in North Carolina. He played football at Wake Forest University, lives in New York City and volunteered with children. He’s the first black bachelor in history, and that weighs on him, “I don’t want to bother blacks, I don’t want to bother whites,” he told Chris Harrison.
Meet the ladies
Thirty-two women were quarantined for weeks and did four COVID-19 tests in hopes of sharing drops with Matt. There were some real winners, like Mari: “Do you ever know anyone and you don’t know what to say?” Matt said after leaving. The Magi came from Ethiopia to the show.
Chelsea took the hell out of the dressing gown.
Many faced off in an apparent competition for the most absurdly written names: looking at you, Pieper, Khaylah, and Kali. But it’s a competition for love, not stray vocals. In this column, we focus on the schemes made to get Matt’s attention:
- Anna he brought her a survival kit with real “red flags” to agitate the women.
- Khaylah, who is from North Carolina like Matt, arrived in a van.
- Alice, a New York dancer, danced the way out of the limousine.
- Alana he carried spaghetti and gave her a kiss “The Lady and the Tramp.”
- Time she came up with a lace bra and panties. Matt helped her choose between two dresses. “Damn,” he said as he left. “You have to love a woman with confidence.”
- MJ He tried to get into a pizza delivery car with a cake in his hand, but was locked up.
- Katie he brought Matt a vibrator “because it made her go through the pandemic.”
- Kimberly he brought a big fish and threw it at Matt for a reason I don’t understand.
- “Queen” Victory she was carried to the throne and wore a tiara, and then fell up the stairs.
The cocktail
As an introduction, Matt led his ladies in prayer instead of toasting for their journey. Then the women went to war “can I steal it for a second”? God bless them.
He chatted with Sarah about how he struggles with expectations to be perfect. When Mari confided in her that her family in Puerto Rico would deal with the hurricanes, Katie and her vibrator were interrupted.
Khaylah continued to take advantage of her hometown, sharing a sweet tea toast with her husband. Kit “Princess” tried the same strategy, giving her a New York-themed snow globe, though Queen V pulled her out and then harassed some women because they weren’t left alone with Matt yet. I’m going out with a member and I’ll say this one isn’t here to make friends. He works overtime to edit the villain.
Bri and Matt were related to their similar upbringings: she is also biracial and was raised by divided parents.
The first kiss (real)
But it was Abigail who stole his heart: after revealing that she is partially deaf and wears cochlear implants, Matt had the honor that was opened to him.
He couldn’t take his eyes off her and they kissed.
The first impression increased
Not surprisingly, this one also went to Abigail.
The rose ceremony
Lots of very solid ladies have roses like Bri, Mari, Chelsea and Kristin. But * the collective moan * Victoria also got one. At least we know in advance who is here just to cause trouble in the house, but they don’t usually get to the fifth last week.
Prediction
I think the first one-on-one will go to someone who caught Matt’s attention but didn’t have much time with him tonight, like Chelsea. But the promotions showed that more women came in and a lot of crying, a real mess from the producers. Buckle.
