Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - General Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

I think Rachel will also be 32 by the time the show airs. Does that also make her the oldest Bachelorette? I think so. I know Kaitlyn was 30. That's cool IMO.

Wonder what Chase and Wells are thinking after going on and on about America not embracing a black Bachelorette. How convenient they kept silent this time. (I know, I'm petty )

@fluorescent and @flojo031 to the boards. Be sure to enjoy your stay here

I am too, petty that is. Joke's on them!

@fluorescent and @flojo031 enjoy your stay!

First off, Rachel seems really fun and is a great looking girl, but....

Since we've never had a lead that isn't white(don't know how to say this better and really don't want to come off badly with what I am going to say), the dynamics of who the cast will be will be interesting for sure and could complicate the process. I just know from my own (limited experience at that, but none the less, one that has shaped me cause of where I live) that the "language" for the lack of a better word between cultures can get misconstrued so it really will be interesting to see how things come off.

I agree though, it is time for the franchise to change their "mold" so to speak and expand out, but at the same time, the racial culture stuff can get sticky so it really will be interesting to see how things line up.

I really just want a decent cast with a few entertainers. I couldn't care less what race they are. I am expecting the cast to be 70% African American. Because that only makes sense.

Maybe Christain from Jo Jo season will come back. I really really liked him. They could work together.

As long as she has at least 6 viable candidates night one that she can see herself with I am a happy camper.

But I hope Fleiss doesn't turn this into a FLAVOR FLAVE type show. He is one sick puppy that way.

If any of the contestants come in with a clock as a necklace. I am turning off the TV.

Rachel is too classy for that nonsense.

Its bad enough what he does to some of the girls on this show already.

I'm actually not expecting the cast to be that different. I think it'll be mostly white as usual. It's not like Rachel has expressed a preference, she said she's dated white guys before. Sure there might be more black men than usual if good candidates come forward for Rachel, but I doubt it'll be a majority. JMO.

Oh Rachel, you've got some real beauties coming your way based on the few I have so far...

Curious as real beauties means to him. Either crazy psychos or maybe, just maybe some decent guys? But he's RS and this is The Bachelor.....

I'm thinking crazies. Lol

I just want her to have like 5 decent guys who could be a match.

My understanding is that she has dated white men in the past. But she does not predominately date them. But I could be totally wrong.

I find it hard to believe that a black cast would not be the majority. IMO

How is RS certain that they will even cast the guys he found out about? Couldn't they completely flip the script and cast non of those guys..?
