I think the way she is pressed against the shirt make the v deeper...and I think the shirt is more shaded in the tumblr photo.
My only other evidence would be that Brooks likes the V neck...

Apparently he does. Brooks is a strong probability for being hugging guy.

Just wanted to toss in my 2 cents about how soon Des was falling for Brooks (although I don't know - it's JMHO!). Wouldn't she have given him one of the FIR's if he made that big of an impression right off the bat? It would have been way too soon for producers to have an inkling of how far he would go to ask her to please not give him a FIR, to throw viewers off.

So maybe it's that first date that we get to see tonight when he really stands out to her. Can't wait to see it!

I do think Ben was her true FIR and after that, it really didn't mean anything.

Yeah, how do you top a really cute 4 year old boy? The other guys didn't stand much of a chance that first night!

I already said this a while ago.... but the thing is that we know that Brooks is F1 so we interpret everything accordingly, same with Chris...
Which means Brooks was her favourite from the get go and the producers told Des to not give him a FIR and that Des deliberately give one of the last roses to Chris etc....
That's why I almost preferred the times when I didn't know about RS or spoilers in general it made my opinion less biased on certain things.

The reason I like the spoilers is to watch for all the little steps to falling in love. In no way do I think Des was consciously like "Brooks is it" on night one or date one. But when you know the ending you can hopefully watch an initial attraction grow during their time on the show. From the pictures of their first date that we saw long ago, to their smiles and nerves at their first meeting and way of looking at each other at the rose ceremony I can see the beginning of something and that's what I watch for. May see similar signs with some others. I definitely think she was attracted to Ben and unfortunately Bryden in the first ep.

Oh I absolutely admit that spoiling has its perks, you see that I can't help myself either;) It's just sometimes, this way simple things get over-analyzed and we even begin to see things that aren't/weren't there....
I mean, I said it before that I liked Brooks on the premier. (And I do believe that Des did too) However I am not going to lie that I (and everybody else who was spoiled) paid special attention to him. Now mix this rather positive/normal impression with the spoiler and you got yourself a frontrunner who appears in everybody's Top 3 prediction while they still lament that they don't read spoilers.. aaaaannnnndddd that's BS (see numerous bloggers or the Afterbuzz hosts for example)

ZW you just keep posting and I'll keep agreeing.

We have had a tidal wave of fangirl'ism just because of a spoiled F1 where folks "saw" that love connection around every corner. One such spoiled season the spoiled F1 was in fact the F2 (Brad 2.0) ! And the other one the spoiled F1 was nothing more than a fallback guy (Emily) :hidingchair.
A cautionary tale indeed !

Why do people act like Emily is the only Bachelorette there ever was?

I found Brooks to be a little more likeable tonight, however I must ask at the risk of being crucified by all of you....is Brooks certain that he is straight?? I know that all of YOU are sure he is, but he sends my gaydar in a tailspin!! I realize that he has had gf's in the past, but plenty of men want desperately to be straight and realize later that they are not.
