But what about the less positive tweets that went along with that, such as those expressing her disapproval of shared finalist Nick Viall, as well as Kait’s choice to keep him on as a contestant?

“I was like, ‘You know what? I’ve paid my dues and I’m going to say what I want,’” Andi dishes. “I did definitely try to keep in mind that people have feelings and I never wanted to hurt anyone. I just wanted to have fun with it and give my opinion on things.”

But don’t expect the future author — her tell-all memoir comes out next spring — to take those opinions to Twitter for the current Bachelor in Paradise season. In fact, she’s not even watching!

“I watch all the Bachelor and Bachelorette seasons, and I feel like I get my fill each year from that so I haven’t watched,” Andi admits. “It’s also no one from my season other than Clare Crawley and a couple more girls that go on [from Bachelor Season 18] … I don’t have as much of a tie to this season.”

She is a piece of work. Yeah, I'm in the know, but no one interests me on BIP, not even Clare, but I'm so glad to be part of Bachelor family.

IOW there's no one there important that I can brown nose with or use to my advantage.

Well you'd think I would but not liking how her book topic sounds at all. Will wait and see how much "trash talking" there will be about certain someones before reading. hmmm

The ladies on the "Here to Make Friends" podcast talked to Andi. She's on at 29:40.

Thanks for posting that, blu!

I'm not going to post a summary because I still have PTSD from the last time I did, but it's an interesting listen! As someone who's not the biggest Andi fan, I actually liked what she had to say in this, especially about women bringing other women down.

I liked what she had to say as well. She's very well-spoken and it seems like she has a lot of potential. It's unfortunate that she appears to be trying to extend her 15 minutes. JMO.

So MEandI still doesn't have a real job but is still talking about shopping, blogging, eating out and fashion (of which she knows very little)..and she is writing a tell all break up book? The height of sophistication! Tres Classy!!! This is soooo something that the society people that MEandI aspires to be would do...NOT.
I still cannot believe this woman was once a lawyer and is well educated. I have to remind myself of that fact constantly- she acts like such a shallow mind-numb entitled twit. What a waste of a good education. All JMHO.

Well I have to say do what makes you happy. Life is too short so if she wants to take advantage of other opportunities I say go for it. She will always have her law degree to fall back on if she wants to go back to it.

How good is a law degree when you're not practising? Serious question. If she decides in 2 yrs 5 yrs 10 yrs to go back to law, if you're not practising, how difficult is it to get back into that profession?

She has not practised for 2 years now. She took a leave of absence for JPab's season. If I remember correctly, she never went back again. She took another LOA to do her own season and the subsequent publicity rounds and then formally quit. From what we sleuthed out, she had only been working at most a year and a half before she left to do the Bachelor. I would think it would be even harder to go back if you never practiced much to begin with.

MeAndI has been a reality "star" longer than she was an attorney. You can't make this stuff up! cantstopl

So much this!!! What I heard from pals who are lawyers is that law is one of those careers where if you are out of practice (no pun intended), it is harder to get back in. Someone who is lawyer on the board can correct me if I am off base.
