Blonde Files: The Bachelor 2013

BACHELOR 17 FINALE: CONGRATS TO SEAN AND CATHERINE -

image_15 We did it. It’s finally come to a close, all the roses have been given and Sean has chosen his bride – the lovely Catherine Guidici! Truly from the bottom of PRBlonde’s heart I want to congratulate the happy couple. I hope to see you all frolicking around Dallas very soon and looking forward to calling you all neighbors. Catherine if you need a design job, I can probably help you out there. (Notice the blog title.) (more…)

Bachelor 17 – Sean Tells All –

image_1

…and Sean let’s be honest can you really afford this therapy session…”

 

First off let me say thank you to ABC for giving me back one hour of my week and making this “Sean Tell All” / a whole lot of stuff we already knew – only an hour long. If you’re a blog reader like myself – I would love to say there were jaw-dropping things that we learned about our blonde bachelor’s journey that we hadn’t seen or some past cast member hadn’t already exposed before. But, in case you missed it – I counted down a few things that we DID magically take away from this episode calling it – (more…)

Bachelor 17 Ep. 8 “Crazy” in Love -

photo (1) What a week! I think this is the first time where Chris Harrison’s “most dramatic week ever” actually may ring true! Hometown dates are here and our Dallas bachelor is making his rounds to meet the families.

I have to say this is by far my favorite week of any Bachelor season – you can always tell a lot about someone when they are around their family and it’s a HUGE step. So as Sean steps into each family temple to gain clarity I have to say what he gets out of it is a whole-lotta mess! P.S. Fun sighting of him this weekend at a local bar in Big-D – he’s looking a little (more…)

Bachelor 17 Ep. 7: A “Tierra”-ble Sparkle

Fullscreen capture 2122013 124627 AM - Copy It’s Week 7 and oh man this was the night we were waiting for in so many senses of the word. Tierra the “Terriable” (thanks to who coined that one) “lost her sparkle” and it was truly the night of memorable quotes both on and off the camera. Six girls left and two were set to go home as we lead up to next week’s hometown dates and another two night special from ABC. I have to say – as much as love this show The Bachelor is asking me to make a big commitment – and though no one is down on one knee in front of me I will virtually take this as a sign of commitment/handing of the remote from Chris B.

Bachelor 17 Ep. 6: Busted in Banff –

image_8

Where to start. I feel like we have climaxed – the drama is gone, the annoying snake lingers and what we are doing for fun is being OUTDOORSY. I don’t know about you but I don’t love that Sean’s perpetuating our “cowboy lifestyle” when Dallas is known for three things – shopping, eating and football/day drinking – trust me the last one – one (more…)

BACHELOR 17 Ep. 5: Gone Whitefish-in’ for Drama -

image

Why are these girls tearing down my castle Chris? Why?

The cycle clearly had to break – Five minutes in and no shirtless Sean so it’s safe to say that the milk I was drinking was going to stay in my mouth – no drooling needed this episode. But in any case we start off this week in Whitefish where the self-professed “outdoorsy” Bachelor is ready to “buck some hay” with the 11 remaining ladies of the season.

First things first – I call BS on Sean’s outdoorsy-ness. He lives and Dallas and (more…)

BACHELOR 17 Ep. 4: A Derby Daze -

EP 4

“We gunna roller derby! I can’t wait to see a girl fight.”

It’s week four and I pray this episode doesn’t put me to sleep. This week we followed the traditional format of bachelordom:  – Sean-go-shirtless (hes a boxer briefs kind of guy) Good 1-on-1, group date – girls bitch, girls crying, bad 1-on-1 date with no chemistry and more shit hits the fan at the rose ceremony – Chris Harrison this isn’t our first pony show! First date card comes in the door and I have to say Lesley M did her hair – as she reads the “let’s get hot date card” with her perfectly blown coif the first 1-on-1 goes to (more…)

Bachelor 17 Ep. 3: Haters Gunna… Go Home!

girls Back for episode 3 and to be totally honest it was a total SNOOZER! What happened to the good old days of catty bitchiness? What happened to uncontrollable crying and much better producer “she pushed me down the stairs” spins? Well I am not sure if Bachelor nation is conspiring against the bloggers to leave us with literally no quips or witty jabs but looks like we’re going to have to turn over a new leaf here soon – we may have to (more…)

Bachelor 17: Ep. 2 – Harlequins, Harlots and Puss Faces Galore –

Lesley M It’s Shower/Sean, shirtless time! Someone pass the soap and let’s clean up the dirty mess that unfolded as the cat claws came out. I wish I could say I had high hopes for this group. Maybe we could make it to episode 3 and get past some “Hi, how are you, where you from?” sorority rush conversations, before we start cutting girls left and right with the feisty words. But then again this is The Bachelor and like a sorority rush class we certainly can’t love everyone so we might as well throw some character concerns in while we indoctrinate the latest class of (more…)

THE BACHELOR 17 – EP. 1 – LIMO FLIPS, FLOPS & FAILS -

photo I can’t decide whether my overtweeters anonymous group is meeting right now or I have just been through one of the biggest social media whirlwinds in Bachelor blogging history!

What a night!

I am happy to be back blogging this season and I can’t tell you how cool it is to be in the great state of Texas for the next 14 weeks. Our very own resident Sean Lowe is back in the game with 25 – I mean 26 bachelorettes and there were some interesting first impressions to be had! But whats does a football player do before preparing for a big game – have a locker room talk by the Lou Holtz of Bachelor-dom – Arie Luyendyk Jr. – plus a few beers. So as great as this little (more…)
