Remember when JP said Sharleen had 'mundo'? That word is very appropriate for Ariel, too. It means worldly, which is what Guardian Angel commented on above. As much as I find her intriguing, I think Zach is looking for someone a little less sophisticated.

ia, i would love to see ariel as the bachelorette. she's sophisticated, mature, and confident. soooo many of the bachelorettes have been "relatable" to the point of insecurity, and i think she would at least give us something different. jmo.

I would like to see Ariel as Bachelorette too. but since I read somewhere that Rachel Lindsey and Becca are pushing for Charity I have a feeling TPTB just might pick her. According to RS the Bachelorette has already been chosen and could be announced at the WTA which supposedly films next week so im sure if they announce her there it will get leaked before the WTA airs .Who knows maybe Becca and Rachel already know it's her , since they were both leads maybe they have inside info jmo

Michelle is also pushing for her. Not sure if that means they know anything, though. I think Becca has had favorites in the past who didn't become the lead. I don't have a problem with Charity being lead but I don't think she has the personality. I think Aly does but she's probably not going far enough to be chosen nor is she shown enough.

I'm on board for Ariel for Bachelorette. She's smart, sophisticated, and has an excellent sense of humor. I think she could handle anything the producers sent her way. Plus, I think she would make great picks for her F8.

I don't think that either Gabi or Kaity have strong enough personalities for the lead. I'm also not sold on Charity who often comes off as being rather stiff. To me, the only other plausible candidate is Susie. But Ariel would be something different for the franchise, and I think the show is at a point where it needs to take some risks.

Rachel L. dissociated herself from BN years ago, so I don't think she follows the show or any type of gossip related to it anymore. It was Becca and Michelle that were endorsing Charity for Bachelorette.

Would love to see Ariel get the ette gig. She's funny, sophisticated, with an aura of mystery and so very beautiful,,,I would say at the Becca and Taysha level and even more! They would be crazy to pass her up IMO.

Ariel has so many qualities, plus a real sex appeal that guys would go for. She’s confident enough to hold her own, which I would definitely enjoy watching!

Yeah, no doubt that Ariel would definitely be a very different and interesting choice as lead, but just based on her 'ghost' edit, don't see this happening.

I feel for quality guys to sign on to the show if Ariel was the bachelorette, she'd have to be announced well in advance. So many 'randos' show up on each season that are MOT guys. I'd like to see smart, sophisticated guys as contestants. I feel last time we had a lot of those was when Tayshia was the Bachelorette. (looking at you Zac!)

Ariel would be a great Bachelorette.... both beautiful and sophisticated at the same time. She reminds me of Sharleen Joynt/ Jacqueline Trumbull
