jc IA, and those are the reasons why I think Andi would accept the offer if given to her.

This is true, however, as has been stated multiple times on this forum, it's all about the editing and the TPTB will throw their favorite person under the bus if it means more drama and higher ratings. I believe several people have posted here that they hope Nick stays far away from this franchise for that very reason. So Andi would be putting her reputation once again in the hands of the editors and producers, and if I were her, I wouldn't trust them.  I hope she steers clear of this show except as a viewer.

IMO Andi has consistently given producers MORE than enough to work with in her past two stints with the franchise. I thought she was fantastic through her HTD on Juan Pablo's season and then week by week her actions onscreen and on SM have turned me off. I finally gave up on her after ATFR and she's done nothing to win me over again.

So, yep, I would be more than happy to not see Andi on BIP2 as I actually enjoyed that show last season.

BUT ... if she's going to make a living by doing sponsored ads on Instagram, you can bet she'd go on BIP in a heart beat.

Sure, there are people out there and on this forum that aren't her biggest fans, for whatever their reasons. But to hundreds of thousands of her followers on both Twitter and IG, Andi is still respected and considered a role model. Just read the comments on her posts. You don't have to agree with them, but she still has plenty of admirers.  

Yes, she does seem to still want to stay relevant. And she does post a lot on SM. I just don't think putting herself out their for scrutiny again on BIP is what she would want. She can find other more productive ways to stay relevant to her fans in my opinion.

I have heard this over and over that she is a role model and respected by so many that follow her . I would like to know how is she a role model when she does nothing but take selfies. MODS you can move this or delete it I am just soooo curious as why she is considered a role model.

I think I will move it over to her discussion thread as I think it has merit for discussion, but since this is a BIP thread, I don't think it goes here. So let's move it to this:

Sorry but did I read "a role model"? Gosh, that's surprising.

For two seasons (and while promoting between seasons and after) Andi went on and on about how important her career as an ADA/lawyer (and IMO what made her so attractive as a Bachelorette).

Come to find out she's just another wannabe in the making ... walking around NYC like a human billboard and getting paid to tweet/IG about boys laughing cause she had toilet paper stuck to the bottom of her shoe (all while promoting some new tv show). Not sure if that came out before or after she posted a picture of lingerie all over her kitchen.

Definitely not the type of role model I want my teen daughter to admire ...

Eh, I still love Andi but I am just barely watching her season now so

Oh my gosh ... well at least you won't be watching with rose colored glasses!! What a trooper ...

Frankly I have seen nothing productive from Andi since she began her journey on the Bachelor. What I do see is someone who likes attention and to get her own way...oh, and fancy shoes. She lost what integrity she had and seems to be almost desperate for something...anything. I can see her doing it in a heartbeat, if for no other reason than to peddle her overpriced tees and scarves and maybe show off some more of her newly designed, freshly sewn clothes. If she is smart she will stay away, but I wouldn't bet my house on it!

Personally, I think if asked, she'd be there in a heartbeat. She has nothing to loose, she doesn't need to choose a F1, she doesn't need to do anything but look pretty and keep her face out there. So why not? I never imagined I'd see a former lead hanging lingerie in her kitchen and posting it on SM so anything is possible.

TPTB want a successful show, whether they were former leads or not, makes no difference to them. JMHO

I think Andi would like to be a pro model, so she might look at BIP as a way to get herself on tv in a bikini, get a free vaca, and get access to a clothes dryer. Win, win, win.

If Andi agrees to the show, TPTB will be working the a$$es off to get Josh or Nick... and if they (Josh or Nick) don't do the show I believe it was their own decision not one of Andi "provisions". I don't see her as a huge asset to the show without Josh or Nick. I have no inside info but I am at the belief that they would prefer the Nick/Andi combo vs Josh/Andi, just due to how her season went, the AFTR and the Chicago meet up.

All three together would be TV gold! I like Nick so I hope he doesn't do it but it would be very entertaining IMO.

 You can bet that MF would be salivating over the thought of Andi/Nick/Josh on the BIP....I would too. Unfortunately for Andi, I see the guys forming a bromance on the premise of both dodging that bullet. I can see it now...long walks on the beach...comparing stories....the smiles, the laughter...maybe a double date with some new hotties. Oh my!

I agree - it would be similar to Jake/Vienna reuniting on BP. Honestly, I think if even any two of that combination does it (Andi/Josh, Andi/Nick, Nick/Josh), it will be TV gold. There are so many hard feelings and grudges between the three, it would be explosive. I wonder if TPTB could lie to them about the others not being there, in order to get them to do it?
