<\/a>Jenn Tran.<\/p><\/div>\n
As early as episode two, I dubbed this the \u201cOpen Wound\u201d season of the show because that\u2019s basically what everyone involved on-screen is! I\u2019ve never heard so many tales of abandonment, both familial and in love, in my life! (Well, not since I gave up the one soap opera I watched decades ago.)<\/p>\n
The very first thing I want to make crystal clear about the \u201cstar\u201d of this year\u2019s rendition of the stupid show, Jenn Tran, is that any guy would be lucky to have this girl!!! First of all, she\u2019s gorgeous. Second of all, she doesn\u2019t even act like it, which is very commendable. There are so many girls out there who are either not good-looking or are plastic-surgeries-out, who act like they\u2019re the queen of the may, but Jenn doesn\u2019t even flaunt her gorgeous tresses<\/em>, which we\u2019d all<\/em> be lucky to rock. (Yes, even yours truly, whose own<\/em> luxurious locks I\u2019m always grateful for! But Jenn\u2019s are a million times better.)<\/p>\n She\u2019s also adorable. And smart, which is demonstrated by her sentiments, vocabulary, sentence structure, and the fact that she\u2019s in school to become a physician assistant, which is just one step below doctor. On top of all of that, she\u2019s an athlete!!! And she\u2019s uber-pleasant. Most importantly, she was willing to find love with that pack of goons.<\/p>\n Grant Ellis–the next Bachelor.<\/p><\/div>\n That poor girl. The casting people gave her the creepiest choices. *Grant Ellis is the only one I<\/em> would even consider<\/em>, both in my younger days and now<\/em>, if I had<\/em> to choose one of them. *(And I guess I\u2019m not the only<\/em> one who feels that way\u2014Grant is the next Bachelor!)<\/p>\n So in case you missed the ending, (or if you\u2019re smart enough to not watch the show at all,) Jenn chose Devin, the goofiest of the group, to get engaged to. He\u2019s not good-looking at all, is a bit of a chubster with a hairy chest, has odd yellow-ish teeth with lots of visible gums, and all the other guys hated him, which is usually a clue to the dick-iness of a male. I expected him to be gone the very first week, so I was sure that the producers were making Jenn keep him around, just for the drama he was causing with the other men. (I also am positive that they made her keep Thomas, the one Asian guy, because they were idiots who neglected to cast more than one Asian male when the lead girl is Vietnamese! Is there not even one person with a brain who works on that show???)<\/p>\n When Jenn chose Devin to get engaged to at the end, (which I feel she did because she was attracted to how in love with her he was, and how protected he made her feel, after her father had basically abandoned her early in life,) I could not imagine how she was going to be able to have sex with him. I would throw-up if I even had to kiss<\/em> him! But to each her own.<\/p>\n Furious Jenn on After The Final Rose.<\/p><\/div>\n Then, as the After The Final Rose<\/em> wrap-up show was going along last week, the show\u2019s host, Jesse Palmer, kept alluding to that something odd was up with the ending. And his face and those of some of the cast members who were in that audience, along with the expressions on the faces of her mother and brother, made it look like something tragic<\/em> was coming. So, before the big proposal, (which had occurred two months before in real life,) they stopped the reveal and had Jenn come out on the stage live to tell us what has happened since it was taped. And she was seriously crying. With actual sobs. (Sidebar\u2014Has anyone on that show ever thought of having a box of tissues handy??? Just sayin\u2019. They need my mother there to make sure that happens next time!)<\/p>\n Jenn was soooo distraught that I literally thought that Devin had died<\/em>. (It actually might have been less sad if he had<\/em>, bite my tongue.) It turned-out that he had broken up with her! By phone! With no explanation. And then followed (on social media) one of the weirdest Bachelorettes ever, and then went out clubbing with one of his love rivals, Jeremy, whose creepy family had put a kibosh on his<\/em> relationship with Jenn when he was in the Final Four.<\/p>\n Poor Jenn was in soooo much emotional pain on the finale. And Devin is an idiot because he\u2019ll never get anyone even close<\/em> to her. Has he never looked in a mirror? He had tricked even my<\/em> suspicious self\u2014I had not figured him as one of the people who go on that show to find fame<\/em> rather than love<\/em>. I figured he\u2019s just a schlub whom the producers accepted to show that they\u2019re diverse-friendly, just like they also had the first big fat guy ever in this cast.<\/p>\n Creepy Devin.<\/p><\/div>\n After Jenn told us the very sad story of her broken engagement, Devin came out for the two to confront each other for the first time since he had broken up with her a month ago.<\/p>\n Host Jesse Palmer should have definitely asked Devin what changed for him to make him break up with her, but he inexplicably neglected to do so. What a missed opportunity. Now we viewers, who have invested so much time into each season, will never know what really<\/em> happened. (My theory is that perhaps desperate-for-love-from-a-male Jenn proved too needy for him.) No matter what<\/em> Devin\u2019s reason was, there are a zillion better ways for him to have gone about it. He had me<\/em> convinced that he was madly in love with her, so what kind of number did he do on Jenn<\/em>?<\/p>\n Actually, she should have broken-up with him when she saw that butt-ugly engagement ring he chose for her! Even Mr. X was amazed that it was even a choice! And I had jokingly said, \u201cYeah, when Jenn sees that ring, she\u2019s going to not<\/em> accept his proposal!\u201d (By the way, when they kept previewing that this ending had never been done before, and the coming attractions showed Jenn telling one of the guys\u2014who was tall, so I knew it was Devin\u2014that she was not going to accept his proposal, I knew right away that she<\/em> was going to propose to him<\/em>! So that part was not the big surprise they expected it to be.)<\/p>\n The unattractive engagement ring Devin chose for Jenn.<\/p><\/div>\n For further clarification on Devin, I think that he\u2019s just a liar, in general, and not just about his feelings for Jenn. So this is what I feel one of his big lies is: On a \u201cdate\u201d earlier in the season, Devin matched Jenn\u2019s sad tale of being abandoned by her father, to let her know that he<\/em> was in the same boat in the paternity arena. Of course, that made her feel for him, and, ignoring his nerdiness, brought him closer to her. But then, when he made it to \u201cHometowns,\u201d (which is when the Bachelorette visits the families of her last quartet of guys,) lo and behold, who was at Devin\u2019s mom\u2019s house but\u2026his father<\/em>! And Devin and his dad were all friendly, hugging and smiling and acting like they\u2019re best buddies. I knew something wasn\u2019t right as soon as I saw that. I just wish that Jenn had, as well. And now Devin is basically enacting revenge of the nerd<\/em>.<\/p>\n I wish I was this poor girl\u2019s friend so I could break down just how great she is to her. And I rarely even like<\/em> any of the morons on this series! It was honestly hurting my soul to see how genuinely miserable she was on the finale. I also wish she would just marry that adorable ex-boyfriend of hers, Matt, who showed-up in New Zealand, (with the approval of the show\u2019s producers) to try to win her back. His looks put the rest of the cast to shame, for one, and he also seemed sincere in wanting to still be with Jenn. So I think they should get back together.<\/p>\n But, happily, now she\u2019ll be competing on Dancing With The Stars<\/em> starting next week, (which I\u2019ll discuss in a few days,) so perhaps that will bring her some love luck. (She\u2019s partnered with divorced Sasha Farber, who I\u2019m confident will<\/em> love her\u2014if he\u2019s finally over his ex-wife and fellow dancer, Emma Slater, yet\u2014 and they both desperately want children right away, so I\u2019m saying there\u2019s a chance.)<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>
