The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - Potential Contestants - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

megaa wrote:If Becca was in talks with producers because she liked Ben so much, why even schedule a meet-up with Jared (and then stand him up)? I know they're single and wanna have fun, but age & relationship status shouldn't matter where decency & kindness is concerned. Or just meet him and have the maturity to explain the situation and hope for no hard feelings. Jared is the kind of guy who'd probably understand.

If you guys are right about Becca taking F3 or higher, forget it, I'm just gonna be a meanie about the whole thing And her being next ette would be overkill. Even her fans should probably be like nah.

My understanding is that her returning was basically a done deal a day or two before she was supposed to meet up with Jared. She got word of it a day or two before.

The tweeter is from Portland. He follows a few females. I looked through some of the others, but nothing stood out.

HaileeBoBaileee is far too OTT for me. It looks like she's into modelling, and has fans.

I'll bring this over to the No Discussion thread, but that tweeter is a good one to check out further.

Nice job katCAli!

That's what I figured was the reasoning, which doesn't excuse my point about handling it maturely. I should hope she actually cancelled, but I'm going to guess no. To 'stand up' someone only means one thing, and if sources used it to convey what happened, I'm guessing he didn't know. In any case, I didn't like her tweet about it.

I hope she cancelled as well. I have no info on what the conversation was like between the two of them.

Yup, that too. I say F3 if they want her as the next 'ette. They'll probably see how things go. Yanno, F3, just like Ben.

I am sorry but if they have Becca as the next Bette then what a boring season that will be. I still wish they brought in someone new ever season to be the lead and all new people to date the lead. Sorry but if I want to see the rejects then I will watch BIP thank you, don't care to see them on the next season. Give them their 15 minutes of fame and be done with it!

Tomorrow I will exclusively be posting your 1st girl that will be on Ben's season. Just a little something to hold you over til I post more

Hmmm, for some reason, I'm not sure if he's talking about Becca there. I feel like he would be hyping the returnee angle a bit more, like when he revealed Nick.

I wouldn't be surprised if it is someone else and he keeps info on Becca on hold.
All about the clicks... so he may wait until there are photos or something.

I don't think he would wait; he spoiled Nick the day he came on, IIRC. He wouldn't risk being scooped by someone else. He might just not know yet. In his recent blogs and spreecasts, he made it seem like he didn't think Becca would go on and RJ had said she was pretty coy about it IRL, so it's possible that only super close friends and family members know and he hasn't got confirmation yet. With Nick, he went back and forth even after the photographs of the make out session so his sources might not be so great with returnees.

Becca coming back has been a forgone conclusion. We have been expecting that for quite awhile.  No shocker here.  Right after Ben was formally announced as the next Bachelor, Becca sent a tweet to Elan asking him to DM her because she really needed to talk to him.  I am betting that Becca at least met Ben at The Men Tell All because she was spending that weekend staying in LA with Kaitlyn.  Becca has been crushing on Ben all through out Kaitlyn's season.  If Becca only recently found out that she was going to be on the show then my guess is they were waiting to see if Tenley was going to take the role. Obviously Ben and Tenley have a friendship but it is not of the sort ilk for Ben to pass up on the opportunity to be the Bachelor.  I would say that there is 0% chance that Ben and Becca have not been in contact.  The way I see it is that Becca has much stronger feelings for Ben than vise versa. I think Ben will use the brain in his head (unlike several other Bach/Ette leads) and seek out the gal that is the best match for him.  I hope that TPTB have cast a nice mix of gals with several good contenders for Ben.  As close as Ben and Shawn are and Kaitlyn and Becca are I would believe if Ben thought Becca was the one they would have been dating long ago.  But we all know the effect of the bachelor bubble so who knows? Ben strikes me as a very down to earth and stand up guy.  I hope that he has lots of good gals to choose from and really finds the one he can see himself with.  I would enjoy seeing a season of promise and fun.  JMO

First bold. RS gets his information from here, that's a known fact.

Second bold He didn't think Becca would go on because RJ admitted to being a friend so he was going by what she was saying IMO and not paying attention to the lazy housewife sleuthers that eat bon bons every day (his description)

Now that RJ confirmed, he suddenly has info to tie his minions over. That's the way I see it. JMHO's.

Does RS really look at what people post on here?

RS is known to have joined our forum several times. His timing for revealing information is impeccable. Like minutes after we sleuth info. Like minutes after you confirmed Becca would return.

So...I'm guessing it's a good thing that I PM'd people the key piece of info I got rather than posting it in one of the threads for the world to see?

I'm pretty new here, but have users on here e-mailed him and called him out for stealing info from here?

My rule of thumb for myself is I have to be comfortable with my own postings. If I'm not then pms are a good alternative.
