They will still get some guys from jojo season

Unhappy that men of colour will be cast on BiP?

Anyway I'm pleasantly surprised.

I love the diversity ( White, Black, Asian, Russian ) seems like everyone is represented in there. Lately I have been seeing some comments on SM saying people will not watch or ratings will be down because Rachel is black and I am ashamed that we live in a world where people still think like this.

I think they will be happy there is diversity but I don't think that some of the girls will like black men

Can you really see raven with a black guy or Kristina ?

Maybe some of the girls don't mind but the ones that prefer white guys will only have a limited amount which means they will fight for the best white guy

This is all IMO

IMO none of them will care. That's not what they are going on BIP for.

I'm glad they took Rachel's advise and show a little bit of America coming out of the limo.

Hey where's the Italian or the Spaniard?? j/k

@cmarci93 jmo, but black contestants have only had a "limited amount" of their race to choose from for 33 seasons now so nicks girls can cry me a river if they are unhappy about the fact that they may have to pick between a couple of black men to date.

I agree with you also hey need to suck it up but also people do go on the show to find someone they can see them selves with

These girls on nick season I don't think will actually find a guy to be serious with but Kristina I think she does want to find a guy.

But this is Rachel forum talk I don't wanna make it about BIP

I just haven't seen anything to make me think they would be 'unhappy' with that.

ITA. IMO I'm uncomfortable with this random assumption that Nick's girls will somehow be "unhappy" with MOC being cast on BIP based on no actual evidence at all - especially when 1/3 of Nick's cast were WOC.

Anyways, I'm very happy to see the diversity in that pic

Isn't that Josiah leaning into speak to another guy?

@ElonM yes, that is Josiah.

To the bolded, IMO, yes. Why not Raven? Raven and Rachel were roomies who slept in the same bed and became super close friends and strong supporters of each other. I would like to think she wouldn't bring any prejudice to a potential love interest either. Raven is a bold, independent young woman who doesn't seem to give 2Fs what people think. And she pointed out in a recent IG post that Hoxie has a history of standing first on integration. JMHO
