TheWrongReasons wrote:A couple possibly BIP related/notable tidbits from Dean on the AI/Ben podcast:

-his "all-time" celebrity crush is Lucy Liu and his "back-up" crush is Brenda Song (Lol I guess he does seem to have a "type" if you combine these crush preferences with DLo and the ex-gf as sleuthed on IG)
-he said that not too long ago, he was involved with a girl he had strong feelings or "the feels" (a caller's words - this was in the context of answering a caller's question) for but had to back away from the relationship because she/the relationship reminded him too much of his high school relationship where he was head over heels in love but it was a toxic r/s where they were young and didn't really know how to treat each other. IIRC he said he hadn't felt that strongly for anyone from the time the high school r/s ended until this recent girl. He and AI also discussed how he stayed together with another girl for about a year even though he didn't have strong feelings for her, and this was partially because he didn't like hurting people by breaking up (which, wtf, IMO you're hurting the person more by letting them believe everything is A+).

I'm not sure if he's referring to Kristina, DLo or someone else re. the girl who recently gave him "the feels" (I guess one could interpret it a couple ways re. the backing away - not committing to Kristina and letting her leave or the "breaking up" with DLo when leaving Paradise).

At any rate, this discussion just further cemented my opinion that anything going on now doesn't seem to have a high chance of success...seems unsteady even for this show. But I guess time will tell.

Ha! So it seems he does have a type (as we previously surmised)

I'm guessing the whole DLo x Dean thing is not serious and both are probably just having fun hanging out / hooking up....seeing where things go. Kristina is probably over it all and has moved on with her life. Her and DLo don't appear to be on bad terms.

I was thinking that maybe the reason why Dean isn't following DLo is perhaps a PR move - given the drama that will apparently go down at BIP and Kristina apparently getting shortchanged so to speak, maybe he doesn't want to appear like he is adding more fuel to the fire or rubbing more salt in the wound. That being said, correct me if I wrong, but I vaguely recall someone saying that Dean has unfollowed Kristina on social media recently? Or am I confusing this with someone else?

Anyway, I'm actually more interested to see DLo x Ben Z as per preview....however shortlived it was. I would have liked to have seen this pairing flourish.

Jasmine looks like she is going to be a hoot this season.

TheWrongReasons wrote:@summerdayze Yep, Dean has unfollowed Kristina on IG but still follows her on Twitter last time I checked. I have no idea on his reasoning for following/unfollowing at this point

I think you may be mistaking Jack for Ben Z in this preview?



Unless there's another preview I've missed Lol

This season looks hilariously like a university/college spring break thing ... I can't wait

You are probably right - it was a literally a 1 sec shot of DLo with a guy in the pool but he was sort of half-hidden and I didn't pay too much attention

Does this mean they'll be showing it in the premier?

TheWrongReasons wrote:@GuardianAngel Carly and Evan said on Kaitlyn's that it will be shown  August 15 - so I guess a two night BIP/wedding extravaganza?

I don't really care about all the other storylines but I'm sure I'll enjoy the snark/drama/craziness nonetheless. I wonder what animals/objects the contestants will talk to this year?

Thanks for the heads up as I don't follow the podcast. Kaitlyn mentioned that her dancing wasn't shown which says to me that she/they have already watched the wedding segment edit. Good to know that it's not a "surprise" like the show airing is in general for cast.
Evan posted a pic and there is a chili pepper in his boutonniere
