LOL I didn’t read the article very carefully.
Yes, 1 of many and no alumni as host.

David Spade isn't my favorite although he can be funny in a sarcastic way. I did like him in a sitcom called Just Shoot Me. They have brought in comics or comedic actors at times on the show. I don't hate the idea so will see how it gots.

I am not crazy about the idea. I would have preferred one guest host or one alumni hosting. From what they are describing, I think it will be distracting/annoying having all these people rotating through, trying to be funny. I suspect they will bring the attention on them and the couples will be almost secondary. I guess I will have to wait and see how it goes, but I am not particularly looking forward to it.

Do we have any idea who the rumoured “contestants” are?

(BIP NEWS): Off yesterday’s news of rotating hosts down in Mexico, Chelsea Handler was supposed to be one of the other ones along with David Spade, but it got pulled last minute. The only other one I know for sure going down to “host” are Wells and Sarah Hyland.

Probably Victoria Larson is going to BIP. Look at the transformation. She hasn't posted in 5 days.

@GuardianAngel That is a lot of work/filters. I didn't even recognize her. Bet she won't look like that on the show either.

I already have extremely low expectations for this season. All these contestants do now is spend time in between seasons messaging each other on IG if not fully hanging out. It's not like the old days when BiP was the first time they interacted let alone meet. Now they come into it with prearranged 'couples' and knowing exactly who they want to hang out with. It's just not as fun. Instagram has ruined everything. Having a rotating cast of joke hosts fits with the joke of a season it's going to be.

All just my super jaded opinion

Moved from Abigail's thread. Thanks for the info! Going by memory BIP usually starts filming first week in June.

Natasha Parker has been atypically IG quiet as well.
She recorded Clickbait from a different room than usual which could be a clue but might not be.

Chelsea Vaughn and Kelsey Weier have also gone quiet.
