EMILY BEGINS HER SEARCH FOR THAT ONE SPECIAL MAN WHEN "THE BACHELORETTE" PREMIERES, MONDAY, MAY 14, ON ABC

Emily's Suitors Are Revealed... Who is the Mystery Man in the Helicopter?
What do an athletic stud who says all the right things, a dashing Indy car driver who would like to take a victory lap, a skateboarding hipster who likes a good chase, a successful businessman who loves to make a huge first impression, and a single hunky dad whom you'd like to bring home to mother all have in common? They're all on the hunt for the new Bachelorette, Emily Maynard, when the eighth edition of the female version of ABC's popular romance reality series, "The Bachelorette," premieres MONDAY, MAY 14 (9:31-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.


Emily, 26, a single mom who lives with her six-year-old daughter Ricki in Charlotte, North Carolina, meets 25 potential soul mates as she begins her own search for true love. In the premiere, "Episode 801," 25 eligible men come from all over to try and win Emily's heart. Immediately, the drama and the one-upsmanship begin: Emily is hit with a bad case of nerves, but that anxiety melts away as soon as the men start to compete to impress her. Tony makes like Prince Charming and presents her with a glass slipper. Jef, a successful entrepreneur, springs onto the scene on a skateboard. Party MC Stevie shows off his "can't miss" dance moves. Travis offers a gift with a special meaning for Emily and her daughter. However Kalon is not to be outdone and lands in his private helicopter, much to the chagrin of the other men.

The battle for Emily's attention and affection has only begun. Once inside the mansion, Kyle, a confident financial advisor, is eager to captivate Emily, but Brent, a single father of six, is busy showing off his voluminous collection of family photos. Chris, the handsome sales director, makes his mark with some custom bobble head dolls. But Arie, a professional race car driver, is nervous to share his career with Emily - fearing that it will remind her of her late fiancé, Ricky Hendrick. And Doug, another single dad, shares a tender moment with the Bachelorette, bringing with him a touching letter from his 11-year-old son.

After Chris Harrison reveals the first impression rose, the tension mounts and sparks fly. Stevie, the brash entertainer, confronts Kalon, the grandstanding wealthy suitor, accusing him of being selfish and insincere. Emily, unaware of the friction between the bachelors, is wooed away by the skateboarding Jef, who exudes a soft-spoken confidence that impresses her. Emily finally offers the first rose to a bachelor who was so charming that it would be hard for any of the men to argue with her choice.

One bachelor could relax, but 24 others are very anxious as the season's first rose ceremony begins. Finally, Emily will have the 19 men who will move into the southern mansion.

Emily's 25 suitors are:


Aaron, 36, a biology teacher from Long Beach, CA
Alessandro, 30, a grain merchant from St. Paul, MN
Alejandro, 25, a mushroom farmer from San Francisco, CA

Thanks, BG. So far shades of last season with Jash always stealing glances at each other, and that's only the ones that TPTB allowed us to see, cause they can't hide them all.

Could he be the athletic stud who says all the right things? Or are you thinking that is Ryan?

[Pattycake92]

Sean is not mentioned. I don't think JP was mentioned in Ashley's first episode description.

[Guest]

Sean could be the darkhorse in this and F1. Maybe she likes Texas, she's spent time there with Brad and it's familiar. Didn't she have relatives or some Texas connection before she went on Brad's season. Her mom owned property or something? I cannot remember.

Which may shake out Sean F1, Arie F2 (& next bach) and Jef lovable, fun F3? I'm open to any of them, love all 3 of these guys actually, plus a few who didn't get as far as the F3's. Now to see their personalities and interactions with Emily!

What you seeing, mnm? I still think Arie is F1, just not 100% sure, cause it seems very obvious. I'm sure the avg. non-spoiled, non mb viewers will say "oh, she'll pick the race car driver" due to the Hendrick racing connection, and not differentiate between Indy car and Nascar drivers.
