Bachelorette 14 - Becca Kufrin - Media SM - Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

I'm referring to mannerism's, and not behaviour. Becca throws her head back a lot like Andi did and that pic upthread I posted, is a look that Andi does a lot when posing.

I've noticed that Becca throws her head back usually when she's getting "emotional"/vulnerable ... like the defense mechanism so the other can't see her eyes, because she may be feeling too "bare" and sometimes to suppress the tears - all JMO.

Aria wrote:Yeah, Krystal did a podcast and said Becca was known as Miss Congeniality because she's so sweet and kind to everyone. Goes along with Bekah saying she has a pure heart and Tia saying she thinks of everyone else before herself. This is likely going to be Jojo 2.0, as she really doesn't seem to have a single mean, petty bone in her body (would it kill her to have just one though?! Some people deserve it!). IMO.

I keep hoping for just a teensy tiny bit of shade but she just keeps on being so damn kind and sweet (grrrr). She's becoming my new fave. The men in this franchise are trash IMO but there are some real gems amongst the women. Especially the female leads. I love em all. Petty/catty/kinda bitchy ones like Andi, Rachel, & Kaitlyn and the total sweethearts like Jojo, Des, and now looks like Becca's gonna be joining their ranks. Can't wait for her season .All Jmo.

I totally agree with this. I love all the female leads, every single one of them is special on her own way IMO. The best thing this show has given us so far as viewers is incredible female leads IMO Becca is going to be another amazing lead that I will have so much fun watching on her season

Moved from A/L thread.

No surprise here. I don't think they are taking up on the previous lead's supposed suggestion to film a SHV but rather are going with their own idea of filming SHV's/breakups. After all the SM backlash about filming a breakup and showing it on national TV, they are going to do more of it. Movement or no movement, just like I and other's thought.

A little laughter is needed in the world today…it is something that is never wasted and has a power of its own. I would give Arie the benefit of the doubt that even he would appreciate the humor in the situation and enjoy a little laugh!

@mimi grace
Thank you. 

Oh also this little quote from Mills above:

You have to remember everything is group dates up until the hometown dates and then it starts to be one-on-ones, so the deepening of the relationships—that's something we'll want to incorporate more. That's important for everyone to see."

Yet once again, Mills misspeaks per the bolded.  Once I started looking for it, I was amazed at how the man re-writes truth.

Exactly! That’s what I was referring to above.     

@mimi grace  love your quotes!  

Maybe they’ll do more one-on-ones to deepen the relationships. The group dates are fun though because that’s when the cattiness happens!!!

In the Au version the group dates often end with one on one time rather than a cocktail party thing which means the lead spends a little more time with the contestants. Basically all of the F4 (except F2) had 2 one-on-ones and a sqt after a GD. It helps make the relationship feel like they're progressing and prevents the early one-on-ones not look so isolated.

He does speak with a fork-ed tongue. Is MAFS still a successful show? If so, maybe MF thinks "incorporating the deepening of the relationships" will move them in the MAFS direction...just thinking out loud....

I can identify with Becca. I lost someone in my intrinsic family tragically at age 22. At age 25, I went through another horrific challenge with another beloved intrinsic family member. 
As is said what does not kill you, makes you stronger. But it certainly does not make it fair. 
No one ever said life was fair. 

Thanks for sharing with us @Kashathediva I too had lost immediate family members and other events my grandfather when I was 10, my parents divorce when I was 11, then my other grandmother's death when I was 11. It does affect someone and can interfere with how things are later in life.

Filming for the show begins tomorrow. That means all the guys are in hotel rooms with no phones probably for the past 2 days. One of the guys that was released yesterday Ricky Jasper. He accepted my IG follow request 30 minutes ago. I'm confused because if he was locked in a hotel room getting ready to be on the show he would not have his phone with him. My guess is he didn't make the show at the last minute unless I am completely wrong. What do you guys think?
