Bachelor 21 - Nick Viall - F1-F6 - Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

I agree. In her modeling pics, with makeup and certain angles, she looks great, but otherwise she's kind of plain. She really didn't stand out in the BSB date at all, like Danielle m and Kristina did. Beauty is SO subjective, but I do personally find her the least prettiest in the final four. Nick would make a really attractive pair with any of the final four though.

I do wish we had seen video of nick/Whitney interactions. I haven't really gotten that F1 sense with any of the girls that I did with Lauren/Ben, Kaitlyn/Shawn, and Catherine/Shawn when pics and videos of their filming leaked. The Kristina interactions seemed more brotherly to me and he did seem a bit awkard with Rachel.

IMO.

^ So maybe Nick is ending up alone this season..?

I may stand alone in my opinion, but I think Nick has figured out what he wants AND will work best for him along the way. Hopefully there isn't a ME ME ME left. You can be confident and not have to be the only voice heard. I don't know Whitney's personality at all so shame on me for already eliminating her at F3. So, that leaves Rachel and Kristina for my guess. I think his family and these last dates will write his story. I do think he wants a soulmate...not a significant other for the sole purpose of shilling. With that said...I so hope he gets his happy ending and beginning.

Very well said and I agree.

I'm honestly rooting for a Whitney as F1 because they'd be hot together 

This is what I'm hoping for now, basically, since I guess it's time to give up hope for my beloved DLo (  )
IA with the bolded - IMO Whitney is the most aesthetically pleasing out of the F3/4 - she really has that classic high fashion model look.

Blu your posts are on fire...and I love it.     I agree from what little I know of the final 4....I choose Whitney the LA model for Nick. Hopefully she has an apt and a car.   No way do I see Nick leaving LA. If Kristina is willing to move to LA and find a job there or become a professional shiller...then she might be the F1. I don't think the young age of Whitney and Kristina is a problem for Nick. Nick is not exactly mature IMO...he has been on this Franchise 4 times and left a good job to find fame on LA. His best gal friend in LA is AshleyI.....so maturity seems overrated IMO. I am fairly cynical when it comes to Nick...so I have my doubts about whether he is really looking for a wife right now.  I see Nick as being as serious about the Bachelor gig as CS.

Since I know very little about Kristina, Whitney or Rachel....I won't judge their maturity level based just on age. I am curious to see them in action on the show.

I hope Rachel is the next Bachelorette....so I don't want her as F1. She would be fabulous as the Ette based on her accomplishments and beauty IMO.

My biggest hope for the season is that it is not overly scripted and boring.

Big thank you to GA and your sources for all the info.  
All JMO

I think either Rachel or Kristina could be the F1 imo. Rachel because of the FI rose and the interaction with Kristina on the BSB date. Just going off of the BSB date, imo I didn't see Nick paying much attention to Whitney. Even with that, he still could've picked her. I guess no outcome would surprise me at this point.

Geez I think I'm going to wait and see the first episode, and at least introductions before I chose who I think would be best for Nick.  We haven't even had a season's preview for crying out loud.  Nick and the ladies have been picked apart like they're the last meat left on a thanksgiving turkey!

my predictions :
f1 whitney
f2 kristina
f3 rachel (she will be the next bachelorette i think)

someone has mentioned how whitney and jen are very similar and i think so too. maybe there is just this spark that was lacking between jen and nick
we will see. jmo

Yeah. I'm actually totally bored by the thought of this season already because Nick as lead is such a yawn of a choice to me (IMO). I'm hoping the girls can be likable and entertaining and that he's genuinely into at least a couple because I don't think he fakes interest well (dates like with Amanda on BIP for a whole season? yikes IMO).

Also, I think a villain type who stirs up stuff with the girls and is the outsider of the group would be a total turn on to Nick based on his interest in Andi and Kaitlyn and his own actions on the show so I doubt he'd send someone home for that JMO. Really just watching for next Ette and the silliness and hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised by Nick.

Based on the little I've followed the girls my preseason hope is:

F1 Kristina

Next Ette Rachel - with TPTB deciding what's a better exit story for her - drama at F3, or heartbroken F2.

JMO.

It's interesting to read everyone's preferences based on photos and seconds of BSB video. In prior seasons, my thoughts changed dramatically once I saw the women (or men) interact with the lead. If these 4 women are indeed Nick's final pics, they are all lovely looking. Their personalities and compatibility with Nick won't shine through until I see them on my TV screen. And even then I have to remember that TPTB are editing them to fit a certain character portrayal.

I agree, I need to see them in action too.  I still think a 24 or 25 yr. old with Nick at 36 isn't ideal, unless they're very mature for their age. Whitney has an elegance to her that makes her seem older to me (like Jen), and I can see her and Nick jiving on their LA lifestyle, but professional models don't give me a good feeling coming on this show.  Kristina reminds me of Anna Kendrick with a youthful, girl next door look and her midwestern roots I could see being a good fit with Nick's family. But she appears a young 24 to me in her SM so I just see him more a big brother for her.  I hope she turns out to have a lot of depth and maturity because of this group, I like her best.  Rachel seems very impressive but I saw no sparks in their leaked photos together. I can see him being attracted to her but not his F1. And no offense to her, because she's beautiful and obviously very smart,  but I can also see Nick motivated to make history by giving Rachel the FIR and taking her to the F3.  I'm sure he's really into her, but I also think he would pride himself on that, especially if it led to her being the first diverse Bachelorette.
