The Bachelorette - Season 12 - JoJo Fletcher - General Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* - #2

I will see you a rejection of Nick and add a Chris Soules to that!

Don't know about those two but I fully expect the Ex to make an appearance..even possibly be a contestant. He's supposed to be featured in an upcoming magazine that focuses on the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous in Dallas. It's hard to imagine that TPTB will pass up that opportunity in some capacity. If it's mid-season, he could touch up her hair, too.

This is one of the reasons I love this forum. The ability to have fun, make jokes and snarky posts. I love it!

On that note, there was a tweet by Robert Mills saying something like "Jojo d!@k of an ex" not so nice comment so I don't think he will even be a contestant. Definitely will be awkward and will undermine Jojo quest for love

Well I couldn't stand Andi the moment she showed up, so no tide change there for me, the tide stayed very consistent. I'm sure JoJo will disappoint me as well, like every single lead before her, but I'd rather like the lead at first than not at all, ever.

If I were to compare JoJo to any past lead, it would be Ali, not Andi. Very extroverted, personable, friendly, life of the party. Probably not in this "for the right reasons" though. Fame!! I sort of see the Andi comparrisons in that all 3 kind of fit in the HBIC (Head B*%^ in Charge), head of the girl click, used to getting the men they want. I also won't be shocked if JoJo is a jersey chaser like Andi was. Otherwise agree, JoJo seems much more personable, forgiving and warm than Andi ever was. I don't see Jo treating her F2, whoever he is, the way Andi treated hers.

All of these contestants are there for fame to some extent, even Ben IMO, or they wouldn't be doing these shows. All the contestants this season are young, so I'm not really convinced any of them feel the great need to get married yet. But I like JoJo, she seems like a good friend I would have. As I said in the JoJo thread, I prejudged her just from pictures pre season, but she seems so much different on camera and really genuine and natural IMO. And it's not just her edit. You can't edit a personality or demeanor.

Bringing this over from another thread for discussion regarding the potential next lead.

Not trying to stir the pot, but if this article has some merit, would people be okay with Lauren being the next bachechelorette?

I'd be okay with Lauren. Whomever it is I will give them a chance.  

I am most curious how the ATFR will be spun to "sell" JoJo as being ready to be the Bachelorette.. 20 minutes after we witness her heartbreak on TV.  To the millions of regular viewers who do not understand filming schedules and behind the scenes machinations that will be an interesting sell.  I'm torn between passive, understanding, I just want you to be happy JoJo or indignant, why did you lead me on...my brothers were right JoJo.  I'm curious which storyline TPTB are choosing for her to launch her next role on the Franchise.  I am also interested to see what storyboard and tagline has been chosen for her by TPTB.

My take on JoJo.  She has lived a very very very privileged life.  I think she is confident and in charge IRL. Men are attracted to her sexiness and fun side. I see her as accomplished in handling men and when in charge as Ette to be adroit in sifting through the pile of wanna be's to find one guy to be her Mr Right Now. Based on the normal type of cast.....I will be shocked if JoJo will actually marry her pick since wealthy accomplished types are in scarce supply.

I've only watched the last three episodes, so I don't feel that I know the last 3 girls very well. I do think that Lauren is very pretty, seemingly  quiet,  and sensitive. As an added bonus,  she would come with a large fan base due to being the spoiled f1. However, I think that JoJo's exuberance seems more suited for the role of the next bachelorette.

Lmao at head b!tch in charge. Just perfect for Jojo and also Andi  I'd be fine with Lauren as the lead too. It'd be interesting how long it takes her to drop the, "Aww shucks, I'm pretty? I thought I was average trending to Quasimodo" act, but I don't ever see Ben giving her up, ever.

IMO there is NO WAY Nick will do another season of Bachelorette even though JoJo is his favorite from Ben's season. It will be interesting to see if any other men from previous seasons will be bribed by producers or volunteer to be part of her season
