I honestly think that the very first time he said it, he didn't mean it to be that awful. Sure it wasn't a compliment, but I don't think he meant is an insult either.

Now that the show has aired, he's clearly putting it on to extend his 15 minutes & get a reaction out of everyone. Heck, he WANTS the comment to be beaten to death at the MTA because it'll keep the attention on him. These twitter jabs are only adding to that.

The Lindzi thing is quite weird! It definitely makes me more intrigued to watch the show now!
Although, I don't necessarily find it shocking, like I said above, I don't think he's as awful as everyone makes him out to be, he clearly knows how to provoke and elicit reactions. It's just this TV persona he's putting on, I'm sure he treats her well.

I do think he's awful, but not because of the baggage comment, but because of his behavior post show. He's an attention whore if I've ever seen one. :Smiley:

Kalon and Lindzi hooking up in BP3 raised my eyebrows too. I scratched my head about this one....then thought back, who was Lindzi again? Oh, thats right, the F2 from Ben's season. Lindzi ....business development....he....some highly money-invested career..... so they probably hit it off with their careers and how that shaped their personalities and the way they relate to people. I remember this clearly because the way she approached Ben to try to get him to propose was phrased in a businesslike manner, it didn't seem to me to be phrased like it came from an emotional, romantic place. So she was someone who was scripted to date with her business head? She doesn't have children (yet) so she didn't take offense or hold offense at him for the comment he made.

Whoever dropped that tidbit of gossip succeeded. Now I'm curious to see this series and I've never seen a single episode or even know what its all about!

Merh...not my cup of tea.

So, as he was part of the conversation he must have heard it all, ergo...... Guess for his next acting gig he could be the wicked witch "I'm melllting..."

My personal opinion is that Kalon will play the 'villian' as long as possible to extend his on-air time/15 min. of fame til the the last second.....

The Bachelorette: Men Tell All Special': 7 Things You Didn't See on TV
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/bachelorette-men-tell-all-special-emily-maynard-350026

"1. The Mystery of the “Baggage” Conversation Remains Unsolved
A long discussion about Kalon’s comment calling Emily’s child “baggage” was edited out of the show. Kalon told Chris Harrison that there were several men present when he made the comment, and it was part of a bigger discussion. However, none of the other guys who were part of that chat seemed to want to speak up.

“I will give someone a million dollars if they can tell me what happened,” Harrison told the group. John finally said it was very late at night, and it was alcohol induced. “We all have locker room talk,” he said. “He crossed the line.”

I was watching MTA episode and just noticed that he has excessively big veneers which stick out so much that it makes his mouth move funny. This just adds to his slimeball villainy. No wonder when he smiles it looks smarmy to me. :bigsmile:

The above photo is the least of it.....full length he has a cabbage patch doll hanging on his leg. Funny and nasty at the same time. King of snark.

Where can you see the full length version? Can anyone post it?

I know he is kind of smarmy, but I kind of get his humour and find it rather amusing...and the fact that he is/was not afraid to stick it to Emily when everyone was kissing her a**...well, I must admit, I rather enjoyed that too. He is a duche, but that doesn't mean he is wrong.
