He seems like a young mid twenty something guy which IMO may seem a bit messed up. I'm not sure this franchise is helping. I've seen a few times now that he claims he made a fool out of himself, and that viewers won't be happy.

I went to his twitter to see what he's up too, he had posted several polls asking what to wear for the MTA. I hope he isn't one of those guys that want everyone to love him.

We definitely planned to twin for the Rose Ceremony but the producers wouldn't let it happen because they didn't want to confuse y'all. Watch #bachelorinparadise tonight to see which one of us got to wear the dress

Not a lot going on with Ben Z. I feel. Still.

Taylor and Derek are cute together, but she's still obnoxious.

JMO.

The hair, the crazy clothes, the bathing suits and speedos.  It is too much.  It is not attractive to women.  He may want to be lighthearted, and he may be able to laugh at himself (both good qualities), but HE is becoming the joke.  The others are laughing AT him, not with him. Like we saw with Raven, the others aren't being kind in their commentary. At some level that has to sting. Hopefully he will take the feedback and dial it back and get a haircut!

Life & Style Article

Juelia was the woman who came to Chris's season with a tragic backstory -- her young husband had committed suicide, leaving her a single mom. She seemed to me to an emotional wreck during the season. It was perhaps too soon for her to throw her hat into the ring once again.

I could.not.stand her during that season. Everything was "amazing" according to Juelia. Her story was amazing, her journey was amazing. I wanted to hand her a Thesaurus. But the reason why she earned my loathing was that she came across to me as being very self-serving and entitled. I remember her saying that she "deserved" (to win the season) due to her tragic backstory. And I felt like saying to her, well maybe the other women deserve a shot at it, too. Maybe they deserve what you already got once -- the proposal, the ring, the white wedding gown, the husband, and the child.

Now I might understand that attitude in a teenager, or even a very young adult who has been through a lot. But once you are a mom, you should be over it. No, you don't "deserve" a HEA more than any other woman.

I don't have any particularly strong memories of her from her stint on BiP, just that it didn't work out for her. She seems to have BN people who like her, so hopefully she has  recovered from her husband's death and has matured a little bit.
