Re: Bachelorette 10 - Media Thread - *Spoilers & Sleuthing* - Discussion

Me too haven't found that one yet.

"-So basically the Chris Bukowski thing plays out like this: During the middle of the cocktail party you hear sound of production people asking for someone to come out to the driveway, there’s Chris waiting, they go to commercial break, later on they go back to it, Chris is sitting there telling production he wants to be on the show and wants to at least see Andi to tell her himself, production tells him they’ll get Chris Harrison, he comes out, Chris tells Chris he wants to be on the show, Chris Harrison goes back in and tells Andi Chris Bukowski came on his own, he’s wants to meet her, and what does she want to do. Andi tells him that she doesn’t think it’d be fair to the other guys who she’s already met, so tell him no. Chris Harrison goes back out and tells Chris Andi said no, Chris begs, but eventually just gives up and leaves. It’s the only drama of the first episode. And fake drama at that since Chris production was well aware he was coming. Chris Harrison had to tell Andi Chris Bukowski was on Emily’s season and Bachelor Pad. I don’t know if Andi even knew who he was. If she did, an acknowledgment she knew who he was was never shown."

I think this is a pretty good example of how unreliable what is said on the show can be.  Below is proof that Andi did know who Chris B was as she responded to his tweet and was following him.  Good for her that she didn't pretend to not know him or confirm knowing him.  Since TPTB ok'd Chris B's appearance, it would be weird for them - and by association, CH - to not know they had been in prior contact.

So, Juan Pablo is going to be on the premiere episode?  Too funny.

RS didn't mention JPG in his Epi 1 summary however he did say the copy didn't include the RC so it must be there or during the credit. JPG & Andi have both said they spoke ATFR so it may be a snippet from that time. In an recent interview, JPG said he & Andi communicated (maybe only once) via FaceTime or Skype. The "appearance" may be from that.

The show and Chris B know it's all for their stupid set up for him to possibly be on Bachelor In Paradise.

[GuardianAngel]

In CH's defence, he might have told Andi who ChrisB was only to "recap" for viewers who he is.

Andi Dorfman: I was ready to move past Juan Pablo Galavis and 'The Bachelor' ties, I broke away from last season
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 05/15/2014


I understand your Jewish. Do your Jewish values play a role in the type of man you're looking for? Do you prefer to meet someone Jewish or is that not really a big deal to you?

Andi Dorfman: I mean, I am definitely proud of my heritage. My family great up with great cultural and traditional things that we always did, and I think that's so fun to see in another person. I'm really just looking for somebody that's kind and that I get along with and somebody that kind of completes me. It doesn't really matter, the religion. I just want a really kind, loving man.

One of the red flags you found with Juan Pablo was that he didn't have much of an interest in asking you about your religion. Did you discuss religion with any of the guys on or off-camera?

Andi Dorfman: I definitely did. I discussed a lot of deeper things, you know, religion, social values, local views. I really took the time to dig deep with these guys and get to know them. I mean, these are everyday things that are important when it comes to a relationship. And the further along it went, the more comfortable I got with these guys and therefore the deeper the conversations got.

Are you looking for intellectual compatibility as opposed to chemistry this time around?

Andi Dorfman: I am definitely looking for intellectual chemistry. I want that physical chemistry, that mental connection, that intellectual connection, absolutely. I think that's part of the whole package. That's what I'm looking for hopefully in a future husband.

How did the death of Eric Hill affect you and the show's filming? Could you talk a little bit about what happened, how that unfolded?

Andi Dorfman: Obviously it had a huge effect on all of us. We heard the news and it was just crushing. It was devastating any time you lose somebody that you know. He became a part of our family, you know, everyone thinks that we go through this cast and season and nobody knows each other, but we really do become a family. So we lost a family member and it's been hard and it was hard on everybody.

I think we're moving on to the legacy of Eric. He really did live life to the fullest and that's something that every single person -- cast, crew, production, myself included -- will take away from Eric and this experience with him.

How did your unique experience on The Bachelor shape how you approached everything on The Bachelorette -- from getting to know the guys, making a connection with them, etc?

Andi Dorfman: I think my experience last season definitely taught me that this can be a quick process, but you can also use that time to your advantage and really get to know people by just talking to them, listening to them, asking them questions, you know?

I said from the very first night to the guys, "I will be an open book for you. I don't know how this is going to play out, but I promise you that you can ask my any question. Nothing is off limits, nobody is going to be judged." And for me, that was the biggest thing, just allowing every one of the guys to feel like they had an open line of communication. And I think that really helped us along the way.

After Juan Pablo's season, the media and viewers really gave him a hard time. They didn't let this guy get away with anything. So what are your thoughts on him? Do think people gave him too hard of a time? And did he reach out to you to wish you luck or give you any advice for your own process?

Andi Dorfman: I mean, I don't know. I don't know if I feel like people gave him too hard of a time or not. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I saw him obviously at the After the Final Rose and he did wish me luck, which was appreciated, but it's in the past.

I was ready to move past all this and start my own journey. I know that it's hard to forget Juan Pablo, that's why I was on The Bachelorette, but I'm on my own journey now and I'm excited to kind of move forward. I think we all are. I think we're all ready for that.

You were extremely close with Nikki Ferrell last season on The Bachelor. Is that something we'll see again onscreen? Were you able to talk with her about the process that you went through?

Andi Dorfman: I don't think you'll be seeing her. This is something I did on my own. I broke away from last season. This is a new adventure for me and this is something that I did on my own, and I'm still in touch with her. She's still a friend of mine and I wish her and Juan Pablo the best of luck.

Going into the season, did you have any dealbreakers? Like a smoker or someone who doesn't want kids? Anything that would make you automatically think, "No, you're not the guy for me?"

Andi Dorfman: I'll tell you that I was pretty open. I will say a dealbreaker for me is probably someone that just absolutely doesn't want to have a family. To me, that's one of my ultimate goals in life, and I think that would probably be a dealbreaker for me.

Why do you think it's better to not know anything about the guys before meeting them? Could you explain that?

Andi Dorfman: I think it's just going in there with a completely open mind. That was something I asked for in the casting, is I want casting to pick people that I might not ordinarily meet in everyday life, or I might not ordinarily date, you know, as far as the types of guys I've dated in the past.

So, for me, that was vital in me being really, really open through all of this. I didn't want to know anything about anyone. I didn't want to make snap judgements. I wanted to just meet 25 new guys and go from there!

Was your whole The Bachelorette experience everything you thought it would be? And if not, how was it different?

Andi Dorfman: I don't think I could have ever imagined exactly what it would be. It was incredible, I will say that. It was, at times, definitely more tiring than I had anticipated. But it was an amazing experience. I can't say anything else except for the fact it was just truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me.

These three questions and answers stood out to me.

We got our answer that she is jewish, but doesn't need it from her F1 and that she wants the totally package, not just the hot guy. I will be keeping that in mind, because on paper some of the guys she keeps around give off the just hot vibe.

Finally, I thought the answer to the deal breaker question was phrased interesting. On a season that emphasized that she was going to get to know her guys, she doesn't say directly that she covered her one deal breaker of wanting a family with them. I am sure she did, but odd to me that she didn't say that directly in the answer.

I was hoping it was tonight. Weird that she is on after the first ep has aired. Usually it's before, no?

[boston1]

I think it's after. Jimmy likes to predict the top 3 guys

The lead is always on after the premiere episode, that night.
