Bachelorette 15 - Hannah Brown - Media - SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #11

@beader Maybe. I think Hannah is likely struggling with her new found fame and season in general. But I don't know if this tyler/gigi thing is really keeping her up at night. I think she has a lot on the brain, in general.We know nothing about their "private conversations." So Idk if we know enough to assume Tyler is keeping her awake at night. Who knows? Maybe she wanted to give it a shot but all this has made her realize her feelings for him aren't that strong. All she's said is she has feelings, not that she loves him. Maybe Tyler and Hannah are on the same page, now, and fine. And she's happy to move on and told him to follow his model dreams. Anything is possible at this point.

The person on reddit who was working those photo shoots posted a really interesting take on why they might not have gone with Tyler for campaign modeling. Mostly involved that the photos wouldn’t come out until spring, and it’s risky as there’s no idea if he’d still be popular at that point or if the tides turn on him. I recommend checking it out.

That's not what I read. The photo's were for e-commerce product photography and his agency wants him only to do campaign. According to the girl who work for the brand.

Why does she have to find someone outside of BN? If Tyler wants to work things out with her, then what's the harm in them trying? Because he wants to do campaign modeling? Because someone else wants him for a fling? All I can say is -- if they can work through everything that they have been and are currently going through -- then more power to them. All JMO.

They posted a longer response down the thread.

I found it. I guess his agency must be in talks with a brand if they wanted him to cancel.

Exactly. I watch this show to hopefully see two good normal people connect. So many of the recent contestants I really cannot relate to. And I think I'm getting so frustrated because if it. So much about this show is now a means to an end, an end which seems so vapid and superficial. Jmo .....  Tyler has so much he's capable of, it seems sad to rely on his looks to any significant degree. Even Hannah....supposedly she's been wanting to shed her pageant crown and be real and imperfect. Not sure she will have an easy time of doing that if she stays in the entertainment world. (I won't begrudge her dwts, cause I honestly believe she went on TB for love first, and dwts would just be the cherry on top, and an absorbing way to occupy a fee months as she processes the past year. )  That she's had to deal with ex girlfriends and now a possible new and world renown girlfriend amongst her f4 hopefully has not set her back too far in the self esteem dept. 

And I shudder to imagine the impact so many seasons of this show have had on young people's attitudes towards relationships. It's raised some interesting issues but i seriously wonder if young people are learning healthy ways of relating to each other. Which is precisely why I refused to watch the first couple of seasons, till I was flipping channels, happened upon a sarah vs. Moana confrontation, and was hooked!!! Lol

Maybe Tyler enjoys spending time with Gigi and so does she?

OMG, you made me laugh at the Sarah vs Moana confrontation ... I’d completely forgotten about that one!

Luckily we forget about most of these seasons, as what happens time and again is we discover that the contestants, and also some leads, are really in it for the fame. They may “fall in love”, but look how many of them use the show to springboard whatever career opportunities they can. I truly thought Tyler was not one of those, but after reading some posts on other sites, I’m wondering if he too wasn’t hoping to further his modeling career. The Gigi connection makes really good sense now as she could be very helpful to him with her connections.

Once again I leave a season and shake my head, and wait to hear how many of these folks have ultimately used this Bachelor/Bachelorette experience for other reasons. This is probably the most interesting part of watching ... to follow them after the season has ended. Music, modeling, hosting, podcasting, shilling, and so many other possibilities.

Gotta love people like des and ashley, who, I suspect only do the occasional shill for their kids' college funds, as they continue to pursue their own careers.

They are all using this show for fame and to springboard into other career opportunities. If they really wanted to keep their day jobs, they would not be doing this show. For those that continue to keep their day jobs, it's probably because their shilling potential are not enough to sustain a living or they cannot get into the entertainment industry. Andi and Rachel were both lawyers, now both are not even practicing. Hannah wants to get into the entertainment industry, she's said she would love to host and do DWTS. Many of these contestants have changed career paths to centre around the franchise. Just look at the sudden increase in podcasts, influencers, and blogs. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I'm sure most are open to falling in love going into the show. If they don't find love, there's nothing to sweat. At least the show may open up some new opportunities for them post show. Obviously there are a few exceptions, like Ashley becoming a dentist and Des with her design, but I think those days are over. All JMO.
