While we kiddingly (or not really), use the phrase, TPTB be aren't your friends (to borrow from Kasha), IMO... You sure don't want to get on their bad side or have them as enemies either.

jMOAA.

ITA.
There are some situations in life where it's best to ride off quietly into the sunset. 
You went on the journey. You learned from it. Hopefully you grew from. Now quietly move on. 
I think this should be the case for this situation and probably any retread.

Yes thanks mindless for correcting this. It is understand.

Becca posted this on twitter but it was from her twitter account not production. Maybe someone posted it for her.

She is really into Taylor Swift.....

This is something that has disappointed me, that Becca herself seemed to want to show she's more silly, I think she even said "obnoxious" and loud - which I doubt she is, having a sense of humor not withstanding.

I liked her so much because she was a more reserved, quiet, slow moving, introverted, analytical type of person and was ok with that in a setting where extroverts and drama queens thrive.  She didn't try to be someone she's not for the sake of the show.  To have her post show feel like they showed her as boring and too quiet is really too bad.  Usually that edit means you were a classy person who avoided drama, being mean or biting at TPTB's bait.  I felt she should have been proud of how she came across, not want to change people's view of her. Why she wants people to think she's not like they showed her to be is a mystery to me, because that was a first class young woman they showed last season.

That said I don't think she in any way is the extroverted, high energy, highly emotional type they need to be a lead.  Des comes to mind as someone who is just a darling person but lacked some of the qualitities needed for an engaging lead (though I still loved her).  

I don't think that's a bad thing and hope she remains true to herself and proud of who she is.  Being more reserved and slow moving and thoughtful included.

As someone recently said "don't bite the hand that feeds you". Maybe the best thing to do sometimes though is to just go ahead and bite.

Such a shame, all those Carrie Underwood designer gowns she must've been saving for those f4-f3-f2 rose ceremonies. I think she thinks she had a HTD on lock having lasted that long. I can't help but feel like shes butt hurt for superficial reasons. All that air time she had left to collect.

JMO, but I think she'd make a beautiful Bachelorette.

Funny thing is the Calia by Carrie Undetwood stuff she got is workout clothes not dresses. Guess she will either need to go to the gym now or dress like she is but not go. But have no fear, I'm sure she'll share on social media so we all know you can buy the collection at Dick's Sporting Goods.
