Re: Becca Tilley - Bachelor 19 - Discussion - #8

I loved Becca on Chris's season, and I love her on Twitter. But I was really unimpressed with her watching some of her periscopes. I found her to be immature and a little conceited. I saw the ones of her in Vegas, so maybe that made a difference, but IMO she acted more like a high school girl than a 27 yr. old. I really do think watching a video (periscope) of someone tells you far more about a person than what they post ot Twitter or IG.

She just definitley didn't come across as the sweet innocent young woman they edited her as on the show. It just makes me think of UnReal and how procucers can make a contestant appear any way they want, even if it's far from who they are. I'm sure she is a sweet, geunine person, but I definitely sense a mean girl vibe from her as well, especially when I see her interact with some of the other Bach alumni.

A person that claims to be sexually inexperienced is not automatically sweet, innocent, humble, loyal or any other positive attribute. The person simply claims not to have had sex. On Soules' show TPTB presented virgin #1 Becca as shy, sweet, never in love and demure. TPTB presented virgin #2 Ashley I as a Kardashian-type that nearly ate Chris's face whenever they kissed who squared off against crazy Kelsey without hesitation. It's a storyboard - TPTB are telling a story. Viewers can believe what they see/hear on a scripted, edited reality tv show or not.

Drunk tweeting isn't a good look for anyone. Tweeting about roofies & rap**g someone isn't a good look for anyone. Not the image of an innocent, shy, demure woman.

As to ~~pimping~~ promoting products on SM for compensation it is simply that: product promotion. Any person savvy enough to secure that deal is hopefully savvy enough to protect their image with careful product ~~pimping~~ promotion selection. Gotta carefully craft and protect your "brand".

I have high hopes for Ben's season because of who he seems to be in the real world. Hints of Becca appearing on his show don't faze me one way or another. If there are contestants on his show that I don't care to see, I'll just fast-forward past them. Works well for me. Smiley

I don't scroll through every page of Becca's threads, so I don't know everything that every user has said. It's more so directed at people who call her out on social media for promoting products every now and then.

She gets paid pretty well for advertising products and gets free gear. I can tell you that she gets a TON of offers. She could be promoting at least 5 different products every day if she wanted to...EASILY. But she has chosen not to do so. If only people knew how many offers she gets and the things she has turned down, especially the latter. The honest truth is she doesn't want this to define her. She's not trying to be "in." Pretty much every single former cast member or celebrity has been the one to initiate contact with her. She hasn't been going above and beyond reaching out to past cast members to stay "famous." The same can't be said for several people that have reached out to her.

Thank you for sharing info with us. It is interesting to know that she is turning a lot of offers down because she doesn't want it to define her. Do you know of any products and/or charities, etc, that she would be interested in representing? Just curious as to her areas of interest. I know she did some modeling with one company (don't know the name) in bridal attire and she really looked so beautiful and elegant. Smiley

Great point. I see that on IG all the time "I say no to so many more offers than I say yes to! I only promote things that I truly believe in!". Yeah, right. You're just being selective because you know that if every single IG picture is an endorsement, followers will quickly catch on and you'll lose them. That's why people are "selective", not because of any moral superiority. I think Becca realized that a bit late in the game, because I remember at the height of her popularity during the end of Chris's season, every single post was a promotion or a modeling pic or a likeit post. It was exhausting and I had to unfollow. I scrolled her IG now and she's calmed down quite a bit now (thank goodness), but I don't give her any points for being "selective".

(still like her, just not a huge fan like I used to be)

It's kind of crazy the amount some of these people get paid for just posting about a product. Some of the popular bloggers get about $10k for just one post mentioning a product. I'd do it too! laugh out loud

Anyone find it odd that she really hasn't tweeted the last few days? Maybe producers told her to quit the teasing on social media?

by Guest Thu Sep 17, 2015 1:24 am

I could see that. I also saw that RS "called her out" on spreecast for replying on Twitter about his scoop on Jared, but not denying/confirming it. He said he would be willing to take a polygraph to show that multiple sources have told him about Jared/Becca. I definitely believe it just because a)it's very believable and not exaggerated and b)she immediately denied any tabloid reports about Chris and she, so she would have done the same if it wasn't true about she/Jared. She might have realized that the whole Jared thing might jeopardize her chances of going on the show. I just think it's way too coincidentatial that she's doing all these "fasting/dieting" tweets, just like she did last September before going on Chris's season.

That will be as it always is just another clue. The silence on SM especially from someone who constantly uses it is telling. They should all be travelling soon, so it wouldn't surprise me if she stops being active.
