Bachelorette 14 - Becca Kufrin - General Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Joy15 wrote:@1funnyfish yep you are correct.

the real time ITM by Becca were only been shown over the events that occurred that night : G receiving FIR, Jake saga, etc.

No ITM by her for any sitdown with the guys (no time for that IMO).  They needed to film Becca over Blake ITM later to instill the 'competition' between him and G, as 2 main storylines of this season. IMO

For once I wish I wasn't spoiled. My favorites never win the season (Nick, Chase, Peter), but I usually at least can tolerate the F1s. Knowing Garrett's views and that he is the winner can of makes the season hard to stomach IMO. That being said, I can never quit this board.

We know that these two places were mentioned. The first one is what we found out first, then we found out the second one is where the FRC was filmed.

I am writing this post while having a bad taste in my mouth. Has its been discussed somewhere?

RS tweeted that Leo did a soft core porn flick in 2017, involving sex scene and stabbing.

Folks on reddits have "verified" this and found the YT link. It’s also been on Leo’s IMDB page the whole time.

> I seriously wonder how low TPTB can go, after this?..do we expect them to cast a hard core porn star next season?  

and to think that Leo last longer than well-rounded sweet Ryan, John, Nick, David even a normal Grocery Joe whom being ditched on night 1..LOL  AND did get the 1:1 date with all the kissing and grabbing..its Ewww all around  for me. Why not giving the valuable single date to a casually normal cast?.. Ugh.. i feel so mad rn *end of my rant*

That being said, i can never really quit this trashy show. #Help

Per your bolded, one can only wish. It might be the best storyline yet.

Leo was born for BIP.  

I don’t think Ryan was comfortable the minute he stepped onto that set.  That’s a good thing, IMO.  

I’m watching for him, John, Clay and Jason.  That’s it.    

@Kashathediva

Lord have Mercy ...but if that happens, i wonder what kind of narration/analogy they would show during FS..?...an earthquake or something ? LOL..... Was it a "volcano erruption" during Jilly-Ed's FS?

On a more serious note, i really wonder, if they do having troubles finding the men cast for this show. I reckoned the women cast have been so great for Arie, Nick and Ben season IMO. Maybe in general the applicant are dominantly women while for men they do have to unleash a lot of headhunter/talent scouting to find some quality,normal men. IDK....the below par of men this season is an indication for the lack of options IMO.

@alwaystulips yes...the way Ryan being cast also interesting to me. He was just casually playing music on the beach, while a producer approached him. They insisted him to compose a song for Becca and playing the Banjo. I am also at TPTB for labelling him such a lame "Banjo-ist" as occupation. I mean, that dude does have a respectable job as Landscaper, for God's sake.  

i better stop before my jumping heart alarm me..LOL

Although I do believe tptb for this show are 50 shades of scuzzy .... I don’t think they knew he did any type of porn. I’m sure they do some background check but they’re not the FBI vetting a new recruit

I think this is just an indication of what kind of people are applying to go on the show. When the franchise was new ... it was probably more the adventuress spirits and ones who thought the exposure could help their career and a few hopeless romantics that applied. Nowadays I think their reasons are way more calculated and the more drama that surrounds this show season after season .... the more decent and so-called normal people are steering clear of this $h!tshow so as to avoid the tire marks that many are sporting after all is said and done.

@northernviewer  great points about the normal people steering clear of this show...since its more and more contrived and dramatic (gag!) over the years. IMO

I still can remember a shy romantic Ryan who got on the show to indulge his adventure spirit... . I also happened to read somewhere that JJ on Kaitlyn season mentioned it was so hard for him to find a real job post season. (my guess is because he was painted as a 'villain' and possibly 'non-straight' due to his bromance with Clint that season..LOL)

as for Leo, he has the porn flick listed on his IMDB page the whole time. I really can't pathom how TPTB could miss that. Unless, its NBD for them or they don't care at all. Yikes!.

@Joy15 the final 3: one will be a virgin, one will be a man who played in drag all season- this will be the big reveal that episode, that he is not a woman and the third will be MF’s wife.

@Kashathediva I’m waiting for CH to step in during an RC and give a rose to someone he’s fallen in love with

@Kashathediva dang!!..    Kasha..LOL

Its kinda O/T...but....hopefully here will do :

since you mentioned MF's wife. I just wanted to share what i found super funny!. Folks on reddit  have figured that the singer behind the Leann Rimes's How Do i Live Without You song during Larie's FS is actually none other than MF's wifey.... They called it as "Discount Leann Rimes"..



Start from 2:00 mark. Who would have thought??

okay..back to Becca

I think another motivation is that the franchise pool has now become the equivalent of a dating app. After so many seasons that pool is large and not only could a cast member date another but those cast members have single friends. AND there are now 2 options to date while getting paid to holiday - WG and BIP - so a guy/gal doesn’t even have to put effort into meeting someone at their own expense. It’s basically a private members only post-Bach/Bette perk.
