Some press from today:



"The first Bachelorette of Ukraine has the most worthy contenders for her heart. Of course, all men are successful, unique and charismatic. However, we really want to know sooner who is fighting for the attention of the movie star.

In the meantime, it is known that two friends will come among the rivals! Is this possible in a struggle for love - we'll see. Also, a billion dollar lawyer will come to meet with Ksenia. Moreover, he will invite her to take a ride with him in his car in order to spend as much time as possible together from the first minutes".

So two friends are our popular stand up comedians Aleksandr and Andrej. And the lawyer who is going to invite Ksenia to take a ride in his car is Evgeny.

Grisha in the press today about the season:

The show "The Bachelorette" starts at STB on October 23rd. Admit it, there are no less passions than in "The Bachelor"? Or are our men more reserved than women?

"It will be something incredible! We will once again turn the world of television upside down. Passion will rush literally from the first episode. Men do not need to be persuaded for a long time. And I probably haven't been so strict, bold in my statements, tough and principled in "The Bachelor" show in all 10 seasons. But as a leader, I either control the process and help the filming team, or we will simply lose control over the men. They don't think for a long time, they immediately connect not only words, but also emotions. Therefore, they need to be contained. So the fight for Ksenia Mishina will be something you need to see!"

The actress and the lead of the romantic reality TV show Bachelorette Ksenia Mishina told what qualities in men repulse her.



“I believe in sympathy at first sight and I think that this is quite possible. And this is familiar to me. And, of course, it can grow into something more. I can't say that I am falling in love fast. But I'm sure if a man wants, he can conquer any woman with his actions," said Mishina.

The actress also admitted that she wants to meet “her” person on the project. “I am constantly have been asked how he should be. First of all, I have to feel him. Meeting your true soulmate is a difficult long journey. Even a relationship or marriage does not mean that you have already met your man, because the percentage of divorces and partings in our country is quite high, ”says Ksenia Mishina.



Also, the actress told what character traits she does not like in men.

“I am repulsed by irresponsibility, self-admiration and an inability to give. I do not like it when men lie, when they are not responsible for their words and are afraid," says Ksenia Mishina.

@natik thanks so much for the translation!

I love Grisha comments. It sounds like the men were a handful!

Ksenia's comments sound so mature, she knows what she wants and what she doesn't want. She is very specific and I think a lot of women would agree with her.

Five days left till the premiere:

Brought you an interview Ksenia gave for the social campaign regarding strong women. She also talked there a little bit about her experience on the project. She starts talking about it at 10:17. I tried to translate it as good as I can and I hope it makes sense. It was not easy so please have mercy with me.



"Honestly, I don’t know how the audience will react to all the situations that will occur there, but this is my life path. The period of my life that I really lived through, during which I was real. During that time, I can remain not understood, make some mistakes, correct these mistakes ... because this is life.

We are all humans with emotions, with our own concepts, patterns, stereotypes. In general, I am in favor of destroying stereotypes. And at some point in this project, I generally realized that I didn't know anything about men. They are all so different, but every woman can find an approach to a man. The main thing is to want it. And in the same way, a man can find an approach to a woman.

In the project all the men are different and every one of them showed himself in different ways. Someone needed more time to believe me, show their sympathy, and say me about it ... someone more quickly understood this. Completely different reactions, completely different men, different lives, different worldviews. And it was very interesting to research and understand this, because I was faced with a very difficult task, in such a short period of time to find my man who is most suitable, with whom the maximum symbiosis occurs, reciprocity, some kind of merger.

Of course, I always focus on what is here (leaning her hand on her heart) but you still do not want to make a mistake and you are trying to draw some correct conclusions and understand a man. Because there were situations, when I seemed to be thinking about one thing, but in fact the completely opposite happened, for example ... a man, let's say, closed of himself at a certain moment and my thinking was that he has lost interest in me but in fact everything was the other way around. He had a completely different situation in his head and it was completely unrelated to me, and in every such situation we tried to sort things out and I studied and I tried to be as understandable as possible for them.

In such a short period of time, not only I but also the men had to make an important decision for themselves. In general, the whole project is aimed at breaking stereotypes, that there are real men out there, that they know how to look after a woman, that they know how to love, they know how to show their feelings, they know how to be proactive  and sometimes it is also useful for a woman to take the initiative and bring a man to a certain level and to help him cope with a specific problem. That is reciprocity and everyone should understand each other and save in certain situations. And of course, a strong and successful woman can be weak, she needs care, she needs understanding and protection, a faithful male shoulder and love.

I do not know what reaction my fans will have after the release of the "Bachelorette", but I am a normal person as everyone else. I also can be weak and make mistakes and not understand something, and try to figure it out but the most important thing is that I did everything sincerely.

I really hope that people will feel it because life really happened there. Some men on the project couldn't believe it ... men arrived and let me just say, most of them were haunted by the thought that ... here she is an actress, and this is her entire acting retinue who makes a movie about her. But at a certain moment, everyone understood where they got themself into and ...oh wow... that this is absolutely not the case. And that moment came very clearly and quickly".

@natik Not to worry. We appreciate everything you do here.

@Sprite Thank you for your support!

Two days before the premiere a lot of promotion is happening.

Ksenia was making a promo tour to the local radio stations.







The PR Manager from STB Channel was by her side.



Also a new magazine cover was published:



And Ksenia wrote on her IG a new post regarding the premiere of the project.

"There are a couple of days left before the premiere of "The Bachelorette", before you see me on screen as Ksenia Mishina, and not as someone else ...
⠀
To say that I'm worried is like to say nothing at all. Not every day we get a chance to see ourselves from the outside, to scroll through significant events in life, like through a film strip.
⠀
But I got the chance. Is it an honor or a test? For what more it is in my life, I still do not know. But the fact that this project completely changed me is undoubtedly!

So many events, passions, experiences, discoveries, drama and happy moments in one project, would have been enough for a whole life.
⠀
Fate is destined for me to have such a role: to live it and tell from wide screens to all, girls like me, what we deserve.

Let the frames that you see sparkle in your hearts. In the hearts of men - let it be the spark of a hero, a conqueror. Let it awake in the strong Ukrainian guys their true destiny as a conqueror and a wise leader, capable of leading with honor and dignity not only your woman and children, but the whole country, because we need this so much now. Let these pictures, which we all created in teamwork, not according to the script, but from the hearts, let them awaken the force in you, beautiful girls. But not the force with the help of which you are saying “I'm doing it myself!”. But the force that only with its good intention, its naive, beautiful female dream creates whole realities, cozy spaces and gives life.

I believe that there is no such a thing like randomness and this project has come into my life, and in  thousands of hearts of those who are going to watch it for a reason.
⠀
We were there ourselves without a trace. We lived, loved, fought, searched and let go.

I invite you on this journey. I want for you to once again walk with me this unforgettable path, with only one compass - the voice of the heart."

@natik thanks so much for all the info!

It seems maybe she's concerned of the reaction to her season because perhaps she makes some decisions that are not favourable?

She is beautiful with out make up. She sounds so mature and confident with herself. I like that she is reaching out to all females with her experience on the show.

She is concerned because unfortunately in the Russian speaking countries a woman still has not the same rights like a man. It is ok for a man to date several woman at the same time and kiss most of them according to the audience he is a hero but if a woman is doing the same thing and god forbid she is going to kiss more than one guy, she will be called with some nasty words. I read already a few comments like "if there is a Bachelor and several woman that it is normal but if a woman is dating at the same time several men that woman is a piece of work". And that is one of the light comments. Plus she is not only a woman but a woman with a kid. Ksenia knows that she took a really risky path here. That is the reason why the STB channel started two weeks before the premiere that digital campaign about strong woman where successful and popular woman told their stories how wrong the society is regarding the stereotypes of women. They tried to educate their audience. They tried to make the audience to understand that it is ok when a woman has a choice. So that Ksenia is having it easier with the audience when they start with the project.

She comes across as a very deep thinker.  I hope she doesn't overthink the whole process - sometimes you need to trust your instincts.  @natik do you have any news if she is still with her F1 ?

You are on point she is a deep thinker but judging by her F1 and F2 I think she found the right balance between thinking and instincts.

As of now, yes she is.
