Coming Up Roses: The Bachelorette

Melissa: I Came On To Repair My Image, It Totally Did Not Work

Melissa and William took some time today to talk to reporters about their time on "Bachelor Pad"

 
Melissa says that she had turned down being on the show several times and just two weeks before filming she decided to be on the show.  She said, "I came on to repair my image, it totally did not work."  I wish she would have thought this through better.  She said that just being in the "Bachelor" house seems to bring out her emotions. 

'Bachelor Pad': Hookups and Heartache

This week’s “Bachelor Pad” picked up right where last week’s left off.  Jake was eliminated from the show, and he went out with guns blazing.  He said to the group that they need to do the right thing, vote out the power couples, and that they knew who to start with.  He told Kasey it was great to meet him and said to Vienna that he was sorry again.  Kasey said he could go “kick rocks” and Vienna thanked the group for voting Jake off and that whole charade just pretty much made everyone uncomfortable.

 
 

 
 Then, it was time for some kissing!  This week’s competition was the annual “Kissing Contest”!  Michelle decided to not take part because she thought it would be a bad example to her 6-year-old daughter.  Ella, who also has a young son, said that she needed to do it and win to stay in the competition so she could win the money for her son and change their lives.

Here's a deleted scene from Monday's "Bachelor Pad".  This one is from Michelle's date with Kasey, Blake, and Graham.

 

They all get to do some grape stomping!  Reminds me of that old "I Love Lucy" episode.  Michelle and Graham couldn't be cuter, while Blake and Kasey do their best not to play footsie.

Synchronized Swimming and Jake vs. Kasey on 'Bachelor Pad'

Tensions are at an all time high this week in the “Bachelor Pad”.  It picks right up where it left off last week with Melissa outraged over Blake flirting with Holly.  She’s crying and flailing around all over the place.  Holly even tries to talk to Melissa and explain that they were just flirting, nothing was going on, and she says it’s just her way to flirt with all the guys!

 

Chris Harrison comes in and announces that they will all be doing synchronized swimming as their challenge this week.  They are split into two teams, guys vs. girls.  They are judged on technical ability, effort and showmanship.  The show brought in some professional coaches to help the teams get a routine together.

 

Kasey and Vienna's Plans Begin to Unravel on 'Bachelor Pad'

Just when it looks like all is well with love birds Kasey and Vienna, they have a tiff over her ex, Jake.

 
Kasey thinks that Vienna is being too nice to Jake, while Vienna says that he is not "guarding and protecting" her heart.

 

What do you think?  Is it possible for Vienna to be too nice to Jake?  It didn't seem like it last week, but we'll find out Monday night!

The Next Challenge on 'Bachelor Pad': Synchronized Swimming!

The challenge next Monday on "Bachelor Pad" should be hilarious!  It's synchronized swimming!

 
It really looks like the guys are putting a lot of work into their routine.

 

I can't wait to see how the ladies do, but I think the guys may have the edge with all of their preparation on this one!

Kasey Gives Vienna a Special Gift

If a song wasn't enough, Kasey's got a little something extra up his sleeve for Vienna.

 
Kasey pulls out a box with a ring inside!  It kind of looks like a promise ring or something.  What do you think it could be? 

 

It doesn't exactly sound like a proposal, because I think being the big romantic that he is, Kasey would pull out all the stops.  We'll have to wait until Monday night to find out!
