A lot of the Bachelorettes either borrow dresses from friends or make a deal with a dress shop. Not sure about shoes but think Emily brought a lot of them herself. It's her money but I have trouble with anyone spending that much on a bag. Yikes.

Bachelorette 8 - Media - Thread #1 - Page 4 Chickfila--859613742586748341

It’s business as usual for beautiful southern belle (and Season 8 Bachelorette!) Emily Maynard. Except that now she has a whole mess of paps tracking her every move!

We have mixed feelings on this because while we know she deserves privacy (and we want to honor that) — she’s just too dang sweet to not keep tabs on. (Do we sound stalkerish?)

On Thursday, January 27, Em was spotted running errands, shopping for children’s books, and swinging by a great NC haunt: Chick-Fil-A.

So the season 8 Bachelorette is just like us! She eats fried food! (And good fried food!) But we should note that later in the day, she was seen at the gym. Again, it just all comes down to balance.

Translation: Did you receive your invitation to a very special cocktail party in Charlotte, North Carolina for sometime in the middle of March, Bentley? You will be the guest of honor.

If it happens, an ep or two, not more. Just enough for that early shot of freakshow factor the show loves.

I am predicting Bentley makes it until about episode 4 or 5. Maybe he even gets a HTD and their daughters play together.

I can't see Emily being that demented though. I think she knows her self-worth more than keeping Bentley, but then again it's not what she wants but TPTB, so maybe!

by jojo47 Mon Jan 30, 2012 7:33 pm

Maybe having Bentley pursue Emily and keeping him around til mid-season will provide the "outrage" for the first half of the season. His reputation from Ashley's season obviously precedes him, so he wouldn't even have to be nasty during Emily's season.

She'll be portrayed as "giving him a chance" when she really has no intention of keeping him long term.

by jelle Mon Jan 30, 2012 7:36 pm

I could see Bentley (being paid $$ to) make an appearance, but I dont think he would be one of her 25. And knowing the very little I do about Emily, I cant imagine him staying any longer than Shawntel or any longer than he did when he came back on Ashley's show.

by Guest Mon Jan 30, 2012 7:38 pm

Agree Alanna (as usual). Also, I don't think Emily wants BNB on her show.(TPTB does for the drama). Michelle Money and Emily are very good friends and MM didn't like BNB prior to him being cast, and warned Ashley about him. I think Emily would take what Michelle Money says about him (in real life) to heart, moreso than anything he did to Ashley in his scripted villian role. I hope so, anyway. He's bad news for sure. imo

by Love_Me Mon Jan 30, 2012 7:50 pm

Didn't Emily say she found Bentley one of the most attractive men on Ashley's season? Granted this was before he started behaving badly.
