Ben Higgins - Lauren Bushnell - Bachelor 20 - Discussion - #2

At least she wasn't attacking them back IMO.

lauren_bushnell@courtkempf 84 people were just killed in France the other day. Every day I turn on the news and tragedy plagues my screen. So much hate in the world and that's how you choose to spend your time? Worrying about how I look "different" @melaniecflynn I hope you all try to love a little today. Our world needs it.

^ There's also another one more up thread. About her eyelashes.

I agree, it's good she's not being mean back. But I didn't think any of those comments said were mean to begin with except the one about her looking "sickly." That's why I'm wondering if she's getting sensitive towards these comments about her..

IMO.

I can't speak for Lauren, but me personally, when there are unimaginable world events happening with so much sadness and death, IMO it's easy to be defensive a little to quickly. Maybe that's just how she felt at the time.

^ Most likely.

I think suggesting she's had plastic surgery is quite offensive. If she did, so what? They'll belittle her more, and continue the harassment. If she didn't, there are tens of reasons why she might look 'different'. Continuing to harass women about our looks is just tiring.

I'm glad she's responding back. It makes some commenters realise that they're talking to a real person, which many sm commenters sometimes forget. And she's not insulting anyone, just questioning the need to go on about other people's looks.

Jmo of course.

People always say women look "different" when we use filters. And the sad thing is...it's ALWAYS women who say that to begin with. Like HELLO..?! You already know!

IMO.

She should simply block these people in the future. She'll feel better.

I agree, especially if this is behavior repeated by the same people in the past on her sm.

In the past, it was hundreds of comments that would be mean to her, if she looked too white in a photo because of the flash, she looked too skinny, whatever other nonsense they would say. So it seemed/seems like too much to block. But I think it's very unusual that she gets hundreds of comments like that unless it's on Ben's IG. On her IG, it's usually only a handful of people to make mean comments. The block button is definitely her friend though. Even Trista had to defend her under the comments today..

There was a picture that either Lauren or Ben posted that got over 300,000 likes. It was of them at their engagement party.

BTW, that same photographer is the same one that took all those pictures of Lauren right before the finale. She loves working with the girls from the bachelor.

^ There is no pic that Ben or Lauren posted that got 300,000 likes from their engagement party, that I see..

You're talking about Valerie? Valerie has worked with a lot of bachelor folk. The lady who runs the StylistLA (the company Lauren has modeled for), actually dmed Lauren while the bachelor was airing, and Lauren replied because she needed rented dresses for the media tour.

Sorry, It was of their engagement. It was one of the pictures that Valerie took and Lauren posted and it got 451,625 likes! I don't know how to bring it here but it's on her IG
