The Bachelorette Introduces JoJo's 'Gentlemen'; We've Got Your 'Class' Superlatives!
Time to divide up the new crop of 'hunks' according to what they're most likely to do in Season 12!
We're only a couple of weeks out from getting to see what happens when JoJo -- the latest Bachelor loser -- is confronted by the twenty-five dudes Mike Fleiss thinks have a shot at making her fall in love with them. And to get us hyped, ABC.com has posted their portraits and a few notable factoids about them, which is surely more than enough for us to be able to make reasonable guesses as to what they're going to be like. Let's pigeonhole them according to high school yearbook-style class superlatives!
Best Prepared
Nick S., 26, current software salesman but former Eagle Scout, still so committed to the lifestyle that he came for his official photo shoot in what seems to be his uniform's neckerchief.
Most Magic Mike
Christian, 26, telecom consultant who, in college, "did strip shows and lap dances." (He also complains that his pets now are cats because his ex took his chihuahua, NOT SAYING JUST SAYING.)
Least Imagination
Chad, 28, luxury real estate agent, who maybe had to fill out his questionnaire in a hurry.
And yet, despite the determined evocation of Matthew McConaughey's Oscar acceptance speech, offers three "all-time favorite movies" in which McConaughey does not appear?
Most Absurd Listed Profession
Brandon, 28, "Hipster." Without tattoos? Not one who plans to advance in his "field."
Most Embarrassing Listed Profession
James S., 27, Bachelor Superfan. Not that I expect anyone who'd come on this show to have dignity, but jesus.
Most Conceited
Daniel, 31, officially a male model; unofficially the ghost of a Confederate war criminal.
Most Likely To Have Seen Fire And Rain
James Taylor, 29..."singer-songwriter"? Come the fuck on, dude.
Most Likely To Know A Guy Who Knows A Guy
Twenty-eight-year-old operations manager Sal and twenty-eight-year-old barber Vinny.
Most Likely To Offer You Tickets To The Gun Show
Grant, 27, firefighter; Nick B., 33, Electrical Engineer; Vinny; and Christian.
Most Likely To Shade Haley And Emily From Ben's Season Of The Bachelor
Alex, 25, U.S. Marine, a twin who managed to come on The Bachelorette all by himself.
Nickiest
Nick B. and Nick S.
Jamesiest
James S.; James Taylor; and James F. (34, boxing club owner).
Most Likely To Bore Everyone Around Them With Poser-y Tattoo Talk
Coley, 27, real estate consultant, who's "interested in getting one"; Peter, 26, staffing agency manager, who's "going this week" to get one; and James F., who's got three, BUT: "All are being lasered off."
Worst Suited To Go On A Double Date
James S., who loves it when his date "[d]oesn't attempt to pay for the bill. Two things women shouldn’t touch on a date: the door and the bill"; and Jonathan, 29, technical sales rep, who loves with when his date "[p]retends to reach for the bill. We appreciate the effort!"
Best Suited To Go On A Double Date
Evan, 33, "Erectile Dysfunction Expert," who's turned off by "girls who talk too much"; and Grant, whose worst date memory is a girl who talked too much about Harry Potter.
Best Suited To Go On A Group Date With Each Other
Chase, 27, medical sales rep; Jordan, 27, former pro quarterback; Coley; James F.; James T.; and Nick B., all of whom named Gladiator as one of their favourite movies.
Biggest Creep
Evan, who concludes his remarks thusly:
Read that quote again, and then imagine that face looming over you, greasy forelock hanging limply between his eyes. Sorry if he/we made you asexual.
