SO, IMOAA, much ado over nothing.

Well to be fair, I think people were more upset at his allowing Corinne to interrupt him and other women multiple times only so he could suck face with her because goodness knows there was no conversation happening between them. And then he gives her the group date rose while she was so drunk she was teetering on her heels. It did come across like rewarding the girl willing to get naked and suck face with him at every second. That's really what bugged most people. Interesting that the photographer (anyone surprised he was legit because I swear, dude was so over the top and cliche, I was sure he was an actor) said Vanessa stood out to him.

the photographer isn't the boss of nick...he could have easily said "nah, I don't feel comfortable with that". I also think that Nick's actions at the cocktail party were just as bad. IMO.

What won't he do in the name of good TV? And if he's such a good producer's puppet, why would his engagement be anything but going with the motions and 'completing' the story line?

He said something about the premiere the other day that I thought was strange. Something about being nervous about coming up with new material to say to each woman when they walked up after limo exits. Thought it was an interesting choice of word...

Not all the article is about Corrine.
"There’s competition for Viall’s rose, though. Lacosta says he was also impressed with grade school teach Sarah Vendal and special education teacher Vanessa Grimaldi. “Vanessa had great energy, which I loved. But she has to step up her game. She really seemed intimidated that day. If she can get out of her head, she has a lot going for her,” he tells Us. “Sarah, too. There’s something special there. I wanted to make the shoot energetic and bring the passion out of every girl. Corinne, Vanessa and Sarah really brought what I was looking for and what Nick was into.”

Well as the saying goes, "time always tells the tale". We'll all know how real and committed the relationship is once the season ends. Maybe they'll last and maybe they'll be one of the dozen other pairings from this franchise to split.

Re new material, I took it that he kept saying the same thing, you're beautiful, you look beautiful. Not sure why I thought that at the time, but that's how I took it.

I'm commenting simply upon whether Nick salivating and foaming at the mouth with eyes rolling in unbridled ecstacy grabbed her boobs. Nothing more and nothing less.  The article states as was speculated it was part of the photo shoot.

That's how I took it, too, because that's something that I would think about if I were in his situation. Imagine being introduced to thirty people back-to-back. You're almost lucky if there's a gimmick because there's something to talk about or comment on, but if it's the same stream of "Hi I'm blah blah blah", then you're likely to give redundant, clichéd responses. And anyone who's a little bit socially anxious or awkward would be aware of this and try to overthink it and come up with something new to say.

Meh.. to me it was just a photoshoot and nothing intimate or interesting about it at all to warrant so much fuss - I took it to be like modeling and what models do and nothing more and nothing less. Heck, the other girl on that photoshoot (whose name I can't even remember) was wearing just bottom leaves and no bikini top at all and no drama there so IMO it was all played up to be a bigger deal than it was to fit into Corinne as the villain role.

What I find interesting about this photo is that despite Corinne being on him like a barnacle, his one hand is not touching her at all. The other hand is holding her around the waist so they don't topple, but he seems to be trying to avoiding touching her.
