Nick Viall - Bachelorette 11 - *Spoilers - Sleuthing* - Discussion #7

And now the #hipbone is gone ... it was a good joke for a hot minute till people who had no idea what it's about started to protest over a word, since it means "attention *****" to some ... which BTW, who doesn't like Nick's lifestyle, maybe should just unfollow him for good, since he's "here to stay" and is going to make his presence noticeable after his IG became verified and people who like and comment increased ...and he's running a new business venture with it, since in these times, the models have to also keep up with their SM in order to get the deal/job and the agencies are looking into how "popular" their model is ... so Nick is keeping the buzz alive.

Nick's hashtag game is going strong - #hipbone? Is that like the new #thighgap that 16 y/o girls use? It reminds of Nikki's #legsfordays describing her own picture! These bachelor folk are so humble.

CP, trust me, hipbone is now a very "in" item here in Hong Kong, I guess in many countries across Asia too!!

Since one of a local male artist showed his hipbone after several months of heavy workout, he posted the pic on his SM and mentioned something like "this is what you gotta do once in a lifetime". I believe he was approaching his 50 when he posted that, therefore it inspired many many local male artist to start the work out program because they too want to have a nice hot bod to show off for at least once in their lives. It's actually a lot of hardwork and the artists would share their experiences, it also teaches the young generation if they want to make things happen, endurance and hard work are keys.

I think it's very "in" in Korean & Japan too.

(Mods, if it's not appropriate, please delete it)

This is the photo of the local Hong Kong artist that I mentioned.
And I have been in this environment for a few years now, that artists and normal guys would also post their pic showing their hipbone and sometimes undie, so I was a little surpised to see how many critisims Nick got back then.

This IMO has a lot of the times, been a lost moral value in our society.

I give a lot of credit to those who work so hard to keep healthy and fit. That guy looks great for being 50!

It's common for someone to have an negative opinion when they see something, and don't know the backstory behind it. IMO he should have left the #hipbone hashtag. I'm getting a little tired of SM backlash when people post their opinions then the poster changes or deletes the post. There are so many other horrible things happening in this world attacking people for their opinions seems so ridiculous to me.

This is mainly about Kaitlyn not doing DWTS, but I thought it was interesting that they brought up Nick as a possibility of competing. Sure it's all speculation on E's part at this point however.

I totally agree - but to me it isn't just SM it's everywhere…personal conversations, work, even here where we can say whatever we want about someone and label it opinion, including me. Makes me sad - maybe time for me to reevaluate my thinking

Yes, it was brought over in the Nick fan thread last night and sparked convo. Was quite interesting, imoaa.

Is one hip bone missing? Something looks strange to me in that pic.

Someone commented pull up your pants and if he lost his belt . I wonder if he walks around like that or if it's just for photo ops.

Someone commented pull up pants but the hundreds of other comments said pull them down.
Meh, it is what it is.
Nick's a model now.
The majority of his followers are commenting that they love his photos and want more.
That's what being a smart branding businessmen does, imo.
Supply and demand.
And there seems to be increasingly more demand by those that follow Nick.

Oh I'd agree, Nick is very smart and knows exactly what he's doing.

I'm afraid the comments have gone to his head and have permanently caused him to walk around with his 'V' on display.

Well majority of the cast has been announced already mostly from E!, & all the pros have met their partners so I'd think Nick would have been in LA longer then just the past few days unless his pro flew out to Chicago to rehearse with him. Sounds like it's just a wish they have knowing how much press he has gotten lately IMO. (and not saying that because of my opinion of him just think they would have made it "official" by now.)

I always feel awkward on behalf of the people taking these pics for Nick. With Nick being like "hey, man, let me just take my shirt off. No, you can't get in the pic with me! Wait, my pants aren't low enough. Are my arms flexed enough? Okay, ready - lets do 25 takes just to be safe".
