The Bachelorette

He showed his decency and thoughtfulness when he did that long interview defending and explaining David the International Model's fauxpas with Sam. He might be a bit stiff, but he's a kind and polite man.

Not to mention the amount of abuse he has copped on SM/radio/TV etc. No one wanted to give him a chance when he might actually be a decent guy. And Richie liked him and Richie is amazing
 
Alright so my thoughts.

I don't know why they force these painful I love you moments. It's too forced IMO. Also, these family meetings can be kind of pointless, like the one on tonight's show.

Sam and Sasha, I think they have a good chance to make it work. He would be a loyal person IMO and fierce in protecting Sam if he truly loves her. She likes his type (tall, blokey, simple in terms of not overthinking things etc) and you can see she is crazy for him.

So now does this mean Michael will be next Bach? I was really hoping for Richie

at the beginning when people were saying he was lying about his soccer creds I said that he wasn't really lying - that he WAS in the squad - just didn't get to play - but he has every right to say he was part of the Olympic Squad ... but to say he's an Olympian might just be stretching it
unfortunately for Michael - maybe it is due to him being genuinely shy ... but he comes across as knowing all the right things to say ... and somehow you miss the substance behind it ...
his face doesn't always show expression (for whatever reason) ... and that also makes him hard to read ... inscrutable I think you call it

I don't doubt he's been given a hard time on SM and by rival tv networks hounding him but in the end he has a great family, a solid background and it will be onwards and upwards from here

there were never ever any guarantees what he may have found with Sam would ever work ... and the pressure of media etc might have taken its toll if people continued always hounding him about that stuff and never let it go

I think they'd go for Richie over Michael ... I think there was more positivity around Richie ... Michael was more polarising somehow

plus Richie and #hangoutyourbananas was trending today apparently ... that's got to count for something!!

however .. who's to say Richie won't be snaffled up pretty quickly - he's taken time off from work for the next few months apparently so he'll be out and about more socially
 
I'm not the only one then lol. I did think WAGish thoughts a few times tonight
Nooooo. I was going for the 'surprise' curveball, and now feeling ripped off. Not a drop of drama. Michael didn't even whimper...pffft. Nah, they all did well, except for Lana. In comparison to the Michael ending - chalk and cheese.
 
I want Richie as Bachelor but let's face it....someone's snapping that one up, surely!
I'm sure Michael is great but I'm not sure I'd be keen watching him as Bachelor.

I think Richie is a very sensitive soul - he's said in all the interviews he hadn't moved on yet. Plus it must be difficult meeting someone given his work requirements so although he is the total package, it is probably hard for him to meet nice girls
 
Hashtag I love officeworks for promising me next day delivery and it is now 3 days later
 
Richie should move to Queensland and sell cool bananas. I suspect he won't be short of offers.
