Trista Sutter Blogs About The Bachelorette: David's Crude & Kiptyn Can't Kiss
via: http://ca.eonline.com/uberblog/watch_with_kristin/b128358_trista_sutter_blogs_about_bachelorette.html
After my debut post, I received lots of feedback and wanted to respond. First, glad so many of you enjoyed it! Second, if you didn't, you are completely entitled to your opinion. What E! asks me to write about is just a bit of banter from my perspective. You can take it or leave it. Last, I wish I could comment on what is happening behind the scenes, but since I wasn't able to leave my life to be a fly-on-the-wall, you'll have to accept that I'm just a viewer reporting on things the way I see them. Enjoy (or not)!
Initial observations…
ABC/CRAIG SJODIN Kiptyn: Can't Kiss
1. David is taped saying that he "really, really, really wants to get a one-on-one." I hope so too, so she can see the real you and send your bootie home.
2. Juan. Yes, in my last blog, I said I smelled someone hidden in the closet. As someone who lived in Miami for seven years and witnessed the suave charisma of men from the Latino world, I know it doesn't mean they are necessarily gay. And, like I said, it's not a bad thing. I just get the vibe that he is a tad feminine and if that's the case, it's probably not gonna work out for either him or Jillian.
3. Chris Harrison once again looks great. Love the shirt!
Let me start this next section with…I love Kiptyn! Loved him from the start and that surfing video…hello dimples and abs! I'm sorry to say, though, and not quite sure how to put this other than to just come out with it…on sight alone (as I obviously don't know this first hand), he doesn't look like the best kisser. Every time those lips come out I want to turn away from the screen. Such a bummer. They did have a perfect "date" as it was the closest thing to what you would do on a normal real-world date, at least in my normal real-world. Perfect didn't go farther than the concept though for me. When they met up, the kissing coordination was totally off.
Then after feeding the pigeons (ewwww!), she goes in for a kiss and misses, he goes in for the second attempt and misses again, and then he finally makes it work by grabbing her face. Talk about lack of kissing chemistry! Oy! Based on that, and that alone, I am disappointed to say that I don't think Kiptyn will be with us on finale night. Play their date in slow-mo if you don't believe me, but as someone who is a firm believer that a good kiss is one of the most important parts of a good relationship, I just can't see her ending up with someone who does that with his lips! Holy awkward Batman!
ABC/KEVIN FOLEY David: An Obnoxious Bully
Group date = curling. Yes, curling.
Let me break it down for you…
1. Michael: By the footage, he seems like the best personality, but the hug was soooo getting him the friend card. Hope I'm wrong, but Michael isn't on the rose list if my gut tells me right.
2. Jake: He's definitely a front-runner for me, from the beginning, but it doesn't look like the chemistry lasted past the extraordinary first date they had. He's getting the "you are too perfect" label, but it's just because he's got the perfect smile and dimples and personality and body and drive and so on and so on and so on. Okay. Yes. Jake is perfect. But I think Jillian's being too hard on him. The bottom line: He seems incredibly humble and genuine. How could that be wrong?
3. I wasn't in Jesse's corner really until tonight. Thought their moments went well on this date, although I do have to say that that hat is not my cup of tea…maybe in England or my almost 2-year-old son. The kiss looked like the kind of kiss that would make her keep him around. At least one guy's got it!
4. And then there's David. He did have one point I agree with…girls like a challenge. If only she could call him a challenge and not a rude, crude, disrespectful, obnoxious bully. He makes absolutely no sense and finally shows his true colors by cussing, admitting to seeing her ass as a piece of meat, and talking about her "t--s" falling out of her shirt. Niiiiiiice.
One of the highlights of this show (and dare I say it, one of the highlights of all of The Bachelorette shows combined!) was when she unforgiving turned David down for a kiss. Yay for Jillian!! That inflated ego needed to be brought back down to earth, and I think that just may have done the trick. Time for the two-on-one date with Mark and Mike. So not fun. So not natural. Thank the Lord I never had to do that! Mark's looking cute. Gotta love a Denver boy and he's a friend of a friend, so I'm a little biased. If you are thinking what I think you are thinking, no, I didn't get him on the show! They take a helicopter ride (shocker!) and all I want to know is why isn't Jillian in the middle? Fair to Mark…I think not. But, I guess she got a great view. When they get out, Mark gets a point for picking Jillian up with a hug. Don't know about the other girls out there, but this girl is a big fan of that move!
Dinner was definitely awkward…ugh! Mike made it even more so, though, with his blatant disregard for Mark's presence as he laid all his feelings on the line. Maybe that's his "strategy," but I just see a red flag of disrespect. He also lost my vote when he said "not to cut you off, but…" All I heard was "I'm cutting you off…deal with it!" It's such a pet peeve of mine. I totally understand why Mark is guarded, but you just can't let that be part of your M.O. Normally, you'd have weeks or months, or years, to get to know the ins and outs of a person's character and past experience to see if you are a match, but in the world of TV Land, you get about six weeks. I fell in love with my husband after three or four weeks and am living proof that it can happen quickly and be right, but you do have to be open and honest and vulnerable. I think, in the end, he was and that's why he got the rose. Such a hard decision to choose between the two, but ultimately, I think Mike just tried too hard. Not super attractive to a confident woman, unfortunately.
Bye-Bye David & Juan!
At the all-important rose ceremony, we start off with Jake, who says that it's inevitable that she fall in love with two guys. So not inevitable. I didn't. Sorry, Jake, but that is something I know for sure.
Conversation seems to be focused on Wes as the guys all think he's there to promote his singing career. Granted, they are spending 24/7 with him, but I hate when people jump to judgments. Just because he's a singer, he gets pinned as having ulterior motives? But who knows that for sure? I think it would be a shame if he didn't show that side of himself to the woman he's wooing. It's obviously a big part of his life. So, I'm gonna just give him the benefit of the doubt and hope he doesn't prove me wrong. Besides, he looks to be a frontrunner to Jillian and who could blame her. Kissing chemistry looks spot on, so much so, it makes me want to run in the other room and plant one on Ryan! Here's where the real drama starts: Tanner has his moment and reveals that one of the guys has admitted to having a girlfriend. Not such a great thing to be a snitch, but I think he was thinking it would help her in some way. I hate to break it to you Tanner, but the only part that would help would be if you told her who it was. All you did was put doubt in her heart and make her second guess her decisions. Good going. Bottom line: No one steps up to admit the honest truth and Jillian is left to wonder. Not a fun spot to be in when the decision could be a life-changer. At the end, it comes down to Tanner, David, and Juan. And, Tanner is given the rose, sending David and Juan packing.
Bachelorette Fans: Do we like Trista's blogging? Thoughts?
Does anyone know who Bachelor Mark is?
During our live Twitter on Monday night, no one seemed to know who Bachelor, Mark Huebner, was. He could be a good contender and Jillian is keeping him around.
Who is Mark Huebner?

Meet Denver's Mark Huebner, Bachelorette hopeful
via: http://blogs.westword.com/latestword/2009/05/meet_denvers_mark_huebner_bach.php
Jillian Harris, a 29-year-old restaurant designer from Vancouver, Canada, was given an especially brutal heave-ho by Jason Mesnick on the last season of The Bachelor -Fortunately, Harris received a reward for becoming an object of national pity: She's the season five star of The Bachelorette, and among her suitors is Mark Huebner, who's described as a "pizza entrepreneur" from Denver.
Hard to tell what that means at this point. Huebner's LinkedIn profile says he's the managing partner of Denver Pizza Company, but there's no website listed for the joint. Instead, there's a link to Motive Branding, located in Cherry Creek South, which describes itself as "an independent marketing agency that offers inventive branding products and services to strengthen the presence of your business among its target audience."
Mark better speak up soon so Jillian notices him!
What Everyone is Saying
Everyone is already talking about episode 2! Go Jillian Go!
RealitySteve.com says:
Wes, Jake, Mike, and Juanita are safe from earlier. The others getting roses are:
Jesse: Italy awaits you, pal.
David: A trial awaits you.
Ed: In case you haven’t noticed, Ed looks exactly like a cross between Robert Downey Jr and Jeremy Piven.
Sasha: You have ugly feet, my friend. Tanner will always hate you.
Mark: I have no idea who this guy is, which means he’s gotten no camera time, which means he’s going home soon.
Michael: Like he cares he got a rose.
Tanner the foot freak: Now Michael is happy. How cute that Jillian called their names back-to-back.
Kiptyn: The heart breaker is going to be around for a while now.
Reid: We haven’t seen much of him. But we will.
Robby: Apparently that Rozmo worked. He must’ve laced it with GHB.
Tanner F.: Another guy we have barely seen any of.
“Gentleman, Jillian, it’s the final rose tonight. Whenever you’re ready. David is about ready to spear Juanita from across the room, so you better make this quick.”
Brad: So he loses out on the solo date to Wes, but somehow managed to get a rose out of it.
So Julien, Mathue, Simon, and Brian didn’t get roses. We didn’t know much about any of them, so it wasn’t really sad to see them go. Well, except Brian, who blamed the weather on the fact that he was “hung like a lightswitch, so that probably didn’t help matters.” Thank you Brian for that visual. Now go comb the high schools for your next victim you creep. I would hope that Mathue would use this experience to see that his name is spelled incorrectly and he needs to fix it. As for Simon, he was the Agnese of this season. The European contestant who completely didn’t fit in. Except Agnese got to the final four, and Simon is going home in Week 2. That’s ok. Gives him more time to hang out in pubs, sing songs, and star fights while watching Liverpool play soccer. Yikes!

Jillian, Jillian, Jillian, how could you give Mathue the boot and let slick Juan stay. UGH!!! It must have been all the cocktails. I wonder if she woke up the next morning thinking what the hell have I done? Mathue, a hot fitness trainer from Kansas, shed a few tears when he got the boot tonight. Was it because he really liked Jillian, or was it his male ego? Mathue, a Taurus, seems like a genuine guy. What kinda girl did he say he’s looking for on his myspace page?
Well, i wanna meet a girl that makes me a better man. I gotta have a country girl that loves to exercise and is God fearing. I have had a rough couple years, but time cures all. The love of my life broke my heart, my 3 year old black lab died of cancer(rest in peace Shadow-boo), and my roommate committed suicide. Bout time something goes my way. The Bachelorette show didn’t turn out as planned, but it opened some doors. I am now working at a gym called Sky Sport in downtown LA. Which airs a TV show called “Workout.” Tune in……follow your dreams, I am!!
Hollywoodgossip.com says:
Brian greets Jillian with "What's up, little hottie?" This obnoxiousness is topped only by Michael's taunting of the competition: ''In case anyone is curious what her bedroom is like, I, uh, can let you know later.'' Minus 6, morons. Despite being the personification of bad taste, Brian does make a point about our girl. Plus 8 for how good Jillian looked in the bank vault. Wow.Minus 3 for Brad being a moron. Who refers to it as "Papers, scissors, rocks?!?" So now the show has resorted to scavenger hunting, as opposed to heart warming, to earn a rose. Plus 4 for officially entering Rock of Love territory.
Chris Harrison needs to personally pimp-slap Tanner P. His foot fetish obviously creeped Jillian out, and there is nothing otherwise likable about him, yet he gets a rose. Can the competition she kicked off really be that much worse? No, the producers just told Jillian to keep him around a few weeks longer. Weak. Minus 9.
