Nick Viall - Bachelorette 10 - 11 - Discussion #8

It's a shout out to this SNL from a few years back...

I think that although it appears that Nick has just slipped across the "Oh, I'd never go there for money!" line ... At least he is doing it with humor, confidence and panache.

A side note: I love Andy Samberg.

GA, I love your idea!! :dancingdoggy!    Somehow I don't think Nick will make millions from this particular XXX FFF Ad or even get a million comments.

OnePromise, I have been thinking of that skit ever since I saw the photo.  No one did it better than JT. Thanks for posting the link.  It makes me laugh every time.

should have known it was related to a movie or something!

^^GA,
Have you seen the infamous SNL Skit with Justin Timberlake and Adam Samberg about gifting their girlfriends a certain "something" in a box?  

If that was his attempt at a play off "D!$K in a Box" he missed the mark IMO. There's a reason Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg could pull it off.

It's almost like whatever Nick does, people think he's the worst person on earth. So, whatever, really.

As long as he doesnt start to write essay to justify why he should post shirtless pic and why people should like him, I'm good with everything he does. I love more shirtless pic indeed.

I certainly don't think he's the worst person on earth and I am still a fan despite this. It's just sometimes our favorites do things we don't always agree with and for me this is one of those times and I feel like I should be wearing a paper bag over my head so no one knows I'm a fan. Haha, I kid I kid. I'm just having a laugh and I'll bet even Nick would find some of the posts here at his expense funny and clever. He has a sense of humor! Come on that pic was hilarious in every way.

Blu, I know, it's all for a good laugh.
It's not like this is the first shirtless pic he ever posted, same old shirtless shameless badass Nick.

I had to go back like 4 pages in this thread for that fff box thing but it was worth it  I don't understand how these people appear on tv for a few month and some just a few weeks and then never have to work again! It's amazing to me! Is someone in the world of academia studying this remarkable phenomenon? We need some underpaid and overworked PhD students to crack the code.

All these people do this if given the opportunity, especially the recent leads/contestants.
It is just the times we are living in.
It's why I don't look at anyone any differently for those who shill products/ ads, etc.
Have at it!! Do it!
Just don't whine about it or whine to fans, etc.

I thought that pic was a play on D*** in a Box given the cheesy caption he wrote, so it's mildly funny to me, would be more funny wearing an ugly Christmas sweater, but the shirt off aspect just takes it from funny to ewww for me.

And is Nick really 35?  I didn't remember that.  Makes this modelling, greased-up shirtless phase of his that much more weird or sad, not sure which, (IMO).  I hope he goes home to Chicago and his job and gets himself in a relationship STAT.
