Kaitlyn Bristowe - Shawn Booth - Bachelorette 11 - General Discussion

The only time that song is good is when Ellen is lip syncing it.

I wish that when these people have "clothing lines" or "design" clothing that they actually you know, design it. Picking a lame catch phrase onto a tshirt isn't designing.

No joke, I was just about to post that. So true!

Eh yeah, to say Kaitlyn has designed anything here is kind of a slap in the face to people like Desiree and Catherine who have actually designed something. And you can find much more affordable clothing with these same exact catch phrases.

CMIIW, but I think it's just a collaboration.

I just looked at the prices after reading your post...WHAT? $86 for sweatpants that have the super innovative phrase "no time for that"? I'm pretty sure I've seen a slightly different version of everything in her line at Target. I'd actually get her "would you accept this rosé" as a joke shirt to work to the gym, but not for close to $50.

This is a new low from any Bach alumni.
And so derogatory. I'm not one for taking myself too, too seriously, but...I don't condone other women (or men) calling one another b*tches, h**ker, sl*t, etc as a term of (condescending) endearment.
Yuck. Plus, it's grossly expensive.

^^ I don't agree with those "hip"  pronouns women call each other either. Don't they realize that men came up with this sh*t and they are setting us back decades!!?! As for the clothing, assume it is Canadian pricing—we are always gouged on the price of women's clothing and accessories here!! 

I know several Bach alumni hock products. And with others, I don't mind it so much because of possibly the likeability factor. Truth be told, I bought a VGV tee-shirt from those rascals JJ & Clint....many are saying how comfy they are and it was $20. Plus, I'm in way supporting thier brand of humor which tickles me a bit.
But Boothstowes' are not coming across authentic & genuine when they are doing their ads. I feel disconnected from them. Maybe not so much Shawn, but Kaitlyn seems so different. So hardened by her experience, her edit, her backlash. She seems disturbed to me.  Not to be too preachy, but she would benefit from a therapist.
And I realize Boothstowe has thousands of (so-called & not bought- (cough, cough) ) followers on IG &Twitter...from a PR perspective, they could probably sell a lot more products,..but, well...Kaitlyn is just doing "her" I guess.

^^^ I agree 1000%. You were right there in my head!!

Why don't they donate a certain % to charity?

Honestly, I think that all leads should go through therapy after the show. It just seems like such a mind-f*ck to be so isolated and emotionally manipulated for 2 months. Especially for someone like Kaitlyn who, after reading her blog, seemed like she had a really hard time with it. I do think that the show changed her - not in a fame and attention-obsessed way (I think she's always enjoyed that), but like you said, she just seems hardened. I can't imagine what it must feel like to go from this super popular person who had A-list celebrities rooting and supporting her to being someone who was called every single name out there. I think that Kaitlyn had previously led a pretty privileged life and she wasn't really prepared for this responsibility. Not to get too armchair psychologist, but I've kind of wondered if all the drinking and partying and traveling is her way of acting out and avoiding dealing with her real issues.

I believe in preventive care. 
They probably need therapy before they decide to sign the contract and give away the rights to how TPTB are going to portray them.
