The Bachelorette 11 - Kaitlyn Bristowe - #4 - Media - Tweets - IG - *Sleuthing* - *Spoilers* - Discussion

What you posted above jen689, I believe to be fairly true. This is how TPTB work. And Chris Hanson is an azz.

I think there are jobs for those who have a passion for law or those who make a good salary and stick with it. From what I've heard it can be tedious/boring. Especially for someone who has just entered the field. Entertainment is exciting and comes with a lot of perks. You get attention as have Andi and Josh S which they both seem to enjoy.

emusha wrote:^ just to add to that Josh was also annoyed at how "weird" it was that his producer pushed suuuuper hard to be his bff and his friends' bff and fed him lies on lies to insist that he strip when he said no twice but then got convinced -- he thought the whole thing was shady and that in addition to CH calling him out when the producers were the one that persuaded him annoyed him - he knew they deceived him to deliberately throw him under the bus and that's the core of what annoyed him.
I think he has a very valid point...he was most annoyed at being led to believe that he'd stay on the show longer but then getting kicked off THEN whatever appearance he had being discussed in sladerous terms... in reality though he doesn't seem to mind CH is talking about him cos it gets his "brand" out there 

p.s. what's up with these lawyer peeps coming on reality tv to pursue new careers in entertainment has the lawyer field really dried up in terms of job prospects?? that's quite interesting if so...

I'm a lawyer and the job market is not easy. Josh S.'s law school was easily found on the internet and while it's not a top school, it isn't one of the worst in the country or one that anyone could just walk into. Law jobs can also be very demanding job hours-wise and only a handful of law jobs pay really really well out of school (and most of those jobs go to people from top schools).

Of the lawyers that have been on the show in the past (that I remember), Michael G. had by far the best legal job and the best law school pedigree (went to Fordham and clerked for a Federal Judge, which means he was likely in the top 10-15% of his law school class). Andi's job was also good and likely what she wanted to do at the time, since ADA jobs are not easy to get, but it doesn't pay very well and it's not for everyone.

Thanks for sharing that puts things in perspective -- in that context then it makes sense to explore other options if they are not feeling the prospects/work life balance....

After listening to Josh's interview I couldn't agree more. Eww...

Can someone please point me in the direction of the interview in which Kaitlyn said the relationship was slow and steady ? (or something similar)

^ I think stripper Josh  actually loves the fact that CH "trashed" him because that opened the door to the media's interest and gave him the excuse to "defend" himself. Otherwise, the approximately 15 seconds of air time he got with his limo exit would have passed in the blink of an eye and been quickly forgotten especially with all of the other sex and scandal they're pushing this season.

He said his ultimate goal is to be a TV host- he didn't say it, but I thought maybe he means as a legal commentator to use his  law school degree.  I don't see him ever having the credibility to be a "serious" legal commentator that comments on the publicized criminal cases and debate stirring Supreme Court cases, but I could see him in a role focused on the legal issues that come up in the entertainment and celebrity gossip world. 

He actually surprised me with how articulate he is overall- more intelligent than I expected.

Just a heads up - we have sign of life from K she favorited two tweets in the last hour...about her being real and about her and megan from CS' season dancing skills

1. Thrilled Kait is def still kicking
2. Trying to minimize all conspiracy theories, but Shawn also follows Megan and she's from Nashville.

I don't know if this has been posted already, but in this interview with Britt, she says she knows how it ends with Kaitlyn but she can't say (watch 1:37 onwards)



OK, this in the context of this instagram photo she posted: https://instagram.com/p/25EBSTkjoE/?taken-by=brittkarolina

where she says really sweet things about Kaitlyn and their friendship and ends with:

"Cannot wait to watch this season of #thebachelorette. You will be such an epic wife and mom. So happy I can finally congratulate you out loud! Love you! #teamkaitlyn get yo man girrrrl"

I know I know, the producers have coached these guys to derail us and confuse us, but in the light of knowing how it ends up, if it were true that Kaitlyn didn't end up with anyone, this would be kind of cruel to write. Esp. "get yo man girrrrl"? Totally unnecessary. Therefore, I think it's possible that it's genuine.

(I previously dismissed this instagram posting thinking britt, like the rest of the contestants, wouldn't know the end, But if she did (and she says she does) this is another clue that it didn't go the way RS says...)

I did notice that when the interviewer said "so, you know who she ends up with", Britt avoided that question and said "I know how it all ends". I also did notice that Kaitlyn's closest friends on the Bachelor, Becca and Whitney, didn't really say anything like "can't wait to see you find love!". It's possible that it's because they know that she doesn't end up with anyone.

I thought about that, but if they (the producers) are specifically constructing this to be a foiler season, that's the first thing they've asked Britt and Kaitlyn to keep in mind in the media interviews... to keep the ending ambiguous. They know what RS said and what everyone thinks. I think Britt's IG post is a genuine moment - she's reaching, congratulating K, it's emotional and it's probably the most not produced thing we have right now, in terms of their media as well as social media activity. I think it'd be really cruel for Britt to say these things, if K ended up alone. Esp. "get your man girrrl", if she definitely didn't get her man? That's awful. The "mom and wife" comment could still be just a nice thing, but the "get your man girrrl" could be telling.
