Future Bachelor

Si & Veronica are off to the races for episode 214! Bachelor Nation is crossing over into Kardashian territory. Scott Disick was seen leaving a Miami nightclub with “mystery blonde woman” that is no mystery to fans of Nick Viall’s season… it was everyone’s fave nanny-having villain, Corinne. Definitely more age appropriate for Scott. Rumors are swirling around which Bach Nation fave might be dating “lesbian Jesus” in light of Hayley Kiyoko’s promos for her Bachelorette-themed music video. Her and Becca Tilley have been very close for years, so could this be them revealing something more? Insta story breadcrumbs have people questioning if Riley and Maurissa are trying to rekindle but it seems unlikely. (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 16m:14s) Deep fake might be the new music video trend with Kendrick Lamar’s newest joint and something from Ye as well. The only fake that A$AP Rocky might be doing is a fake wedding in his latest music video. Post Malone is expecting a baby with his gf and is excited to be

Si & Veronica are feeling glamorous for episode 213! Dale is going to be reappearing on the small screen for what is probably the first time since the Bachelorette with an extremely cheesy “straight to the far corners of streaming” rom com titled “Love, Game, Match”. The trailer practically spoils the whole movie, so will you be finding it when it comes out later this year? This past weekend is infamous in Bachelor Nation lore as it was Stagecoach. Blake Horstmann has had his redemption arc with a DJ set at the festival that included his “Love Is Blind” girlfriend.  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 18m:23s) The Met Gala made news this past week for how many people did not understand the dress code and how the SCOTUS Roe v. Wade leak seemingly did. Blake Lively stunned as a co-chair and Kim K brought the controversy with Marilyn Monroe’s famous “Happy Birthday Mr. President” dress. Travis Scott is quietly making his way back to the stage with headlining Primavera Sound music festival. Our Laguna Beach fa

Si & Veronica are feeling better for episode 212! Susie and Clayton have finally made it to Virginia (which is for lovers)! We talk at length about how Bach Nation contestants are circling back to the trend of having books like many “pre-influencer” contestants and leads did. With contracts ending, more and more contestants are taking to podcasts and IG Live to do AMAs on their experience on the franchise. Chelsea Vaughn from Matt James’ season saved her Live and spilled the tea on if she was in her feelings at all on BIP and how her and Rachael Kirkconnell stayed friends through her scandal.  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 26m:02s) Last weekend concluded Coachella, which means your feeds shouldn’t be filled with girls in crochet bikinis in the desert anymore. Harry Styles brought out pal Lizzo for the second weekend set and Billie Eilish brought out her (and Vee’s) idol, Hayley Williams. Elon Musk officially has bought twitter for $44 million. CinemaCon revealed that Bad Bunny will star in a Spider-M

Si & Veronica are here for a good time not a long time for this shortie episode 211! This past weekend was the Influencer Olympics aka Revolve Festival and Coachella. Many Bach Nation couples and singles made their appearance at Coachella weekend 1 and several were on contract with Revolve Festival. Many influencers have remarked on the poor shuttle and fest conditions with Revolve so we shall see if the likes of Hannah G. still hawk their clothing after this week. Matt James took part in a very different competition this past week with his PR at the Boston Marathon. (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 18m:40s) Besides all the influencers trying to bust a lewk, Coachella had some fun surprise guests on-stage with Harry Styles and Olivia O’Brien, respectively. The man who sold Mac Miller fentanyl-laced drugs that caused his accidental overdose will spend over a decade behind bars. Kid Cudi is sticking to his beef with Ye and clarified that his song on Pusha T’s upcoming album is the last song he will be on

Si & Veronica are having all the milkshakes brought to their yard with SPECIAL GUEST Kelly Johns for episode 210! Kelly and her husband, Bryan, recounted their night at Bachelor Live On-Stage in which Kelly was actually live and on-stage competing for Rodney’s “love”! She brought the ~scandal~ by admitting that she is indeed married, but won the crowd and Rodney over with her impeccable lip syncing and dance moves. Kelly has some thoughts on the clout chasing Shasha of Clayton cheating scandal fame and she was also only 20 feet away from Tia Booth’s engagement! But, will Bryan become a Bachelor fan now that he’s made his debut on a Bachelor podcast and was adjacent to a star at the live show?  Follow Kelly for more Bachelor Nation and reality show content on Instagram: @kelljohns, Twitter: @KellyMJohns, and YouTube: Kelly Johns Official (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 35m:34s) Lots of news in pop culture love and loss this week. First for the lovebirds… Avril Lavigne and Mod Sun and then Bennifer celeb

Si & Veronica are getting steamy (well the subjects of the show are) for episode 209! Kristin Cavallari made a good choice in casting Tyler Cameron for her clothing photoshoot… and potentially she casted him as her next boo. Blake (or as we call him, Balockaye) Horstmann and Giannina from Love Is Blind season 1 have made their relationship IG official. People are already having hushed convos about if they go to the beaches of Mexico and who they would want to see there. Teddi and Andrew might be a match made in Paradise… if they make it there.  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 16m:41s) (SORRY FOR THE BUZZ THIS WEEK) The Slap ™ that we can’t escape will hopefully die down now that Will Smith has resigned from the Academy and they are doing a deeper dive into sanctions moving forward. The Grammys were held this past weekend and Olivia Rodrigo was the darling with her three wins. In other music news, our favorite white boys, Jack Harlow and Harry Styles, have us salivating over their new music, even when i

Si & Veronica are buried under Will Smith/Chris Rock think pieces for episode 208! In Bachelor Nation news, Gabby and Rachel’s season has started filming and their first night didn’t end until 7 a.m. the next day! Catsuit Connor is denying the rumors that he might be crashing season 19. Anna Redman and Chris Bukowski hard-launched their relationship this past week. Andi Dorfman finally found her true love with an engagement to longtime bf Blaine Hart. Tayshia seems to be moving on and up from Bachelor Nation.  The “Yikes!” was more than just Vee’s this week as we took a dive into the biggest news out of the Oscars… Will Smith slapping Chris Rock whilst he was riffing and presenting an award. Would you want your partner to stand up for you in that kind of way? Should there be consequences for either party?  (Bachelor and Oscars talk ends at time marker 40m:30s) The music community has been hanging their head this week in light of Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters passing. Not only did this news shake up M

Si & Veronica don’t know what to do with themselves with the extra four hours of their week for episode 207! We won’t have any Bachelor franchise episodes until after the 4th of July, so we took a peek at the potential suitors for Gabby and Rachel. No one is sticking out just yet but who is to say after some more IG sleuthing.. The logistics for this double lead situation still feel messy and seemingly unfair to the women. Kaitlyn Bristowe is sad that she won’t be back to help guide the girls as Jesse is the host for the upcoming season. Speaking of hosts, Michelle Young is the official co-host of the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast with Becca Kufrin. Colton is backing down from having a TV wedding and wants this part of his ~journey~ to be private.  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 24m:27s) Ye lost access to his IG for a day and also lost his performance slot for the Grammys. Will there be an anti-Grammy’s concert held the same night with him and Drake? When gas prices are their highest, the Gasolina king

Si & Veronica aren’t as shocked as they thought they would be (but still going through it) for episode 206! In another week of 4 hours of Bachelor episodes, it still isn’t enough time for Clayton to show some more empathy for what he is about to put these women through. He convinces Gabby and Rachel to stay after telling him that he slept with and is in love with both of them (and Susie), all to just do a group breakup. Susie makes history as she turns down Clayton’s all or nothing final rose. But all to just end up with him in the ~real world~ without those meddling producers. We will be getting some co-bachelorettes with Gabby and Rachel, but it seems like the logistics for that haven’t been exactly figured out yet. We’re just happy that means more screen time for Grandpa John and Big Papa Tony.  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 38m:43s) Bella Hadid finally ‘fesses up to having a nose job and “wishes she didn’t get it done.” Sure, Jan. Elon Musk and Grimes have been hiding a second weirdly named chi

Si & Veronica are emotionally exhausted for episode 205! We had four (4) hours of screaming women, Clayton being a crybaby, and Jesse Palmer seeming more attractive. The Women Tell All made all the women look like screeching banshees as they fought for their flights to Paradise. The most we got from it is that ruching in dresses is back in a big way. Clayton and his final three women made their way to Iceland where Clayton tried to copy and paste his “falling in love” speech on all three women… Until Susie attempted to set a boundary. How broken will Clayton be next week after getting roasted by his parents and potential suitors? Will he even propose to anyone?  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 43m:36s) Pete Davidson may take one giant leap away from Kanye’s chaos with a space flight with Bezos. Michael Cera is a dad! Pamela Anderson is making sure her full story is going to be told on Netflix with a documentary. Shailene and Aaron Rodgers may be trying to work it out… right as he is in the process of

Si & Veronica know there is no place like home for episode 204! Clayton makes the hometown tour and stops first at Virginia for Susie’s very sweet fam. Like a Sour Patch Kid, she does go sour by holding Clayton in a headlock during their Jiu Jitsu date. Gabby in Denver is up next and she conveniently takes him on a hike to “proposal rock” and a hot tub. Her Grandpa John is the MVP of the whole episode and her dad’s cheesy “Love, Actually” bit wastes 10 minutes of our time. Serene shows Clayton around (and shows him up) on a high ropes course in her hometown of OKC… Rachel rounds us out in the swamps of Florida with a dry hump sesh on the “kissing tree” and a reluctant thumbs up from her mobster dad. Even though she’s the most beautiful, we sadly say goodbye to Serene.  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 34m: 21s) Tom Brady is going to make sure Atlanta never forgets that fateful 2017 Super Bowl with a new movie coming down the pipeline. Sydney Sweeney fans and admirers are mourning after finding out her

Si & Veronica aren’t feeling too bamboozled for episode 203! The first part of this episode was the big Mara vs. Sarah showdown where both of them are fighting their own insecurities and not really even for Clayton’s heart! Sarah wins this round. The girls are in Vienna with lots of palace dates and Susie gets the coveted “Pretty Woman” date, complete with a set of Louboutins that makes all the other girls green with envy. Even though all these people need actual therapy, Bachelor keeps forcing “therapy dates” down our throats. Sarah quoting Ariana Grande’s smash hit “no tears left to cry” wasn’t enough to save her. Serene, Gabby, Susie, and Rachel and their dads will face Clayton next week in hometowns.   (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 44m: 54s) Pete Davidson is back on the ‘gram to follow his hometown baseball team, his gf, and… Sebastian Stan? Kanye is too busy turning down $100 million deals with Apple Music to notice. Britney Spears signs her own $15 million book deal and we can’t wait for the

Si & Veronica are still feeling the love for episode 202! This episode starts with the end of the era… the Shanae Show didn’t get renewed and she got sent home. The Clayton Crew takes on Croatia! Teddi got pulled for the first 1 on 1 date (that includes the third ice cream date of the season) and she drops the virgin bomb. Mara is getting antsy about her clicking biological and Bachelor clock and decides to take it out on Sarah, almost ruining Sarah’s 1 on 1 date. Will Mara last long as the new villain or will she turn the women against youngster Sarah?  (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 42m:05s) The cause of Bob Saget’s death has been released but it leaves more questions than answers. It isn’t an Olympics unless there is a doping controversy with the Russians, but now we have Sha’Carri Richardson chiming in with how unfairly she was treated for a lesser drug. Kylie Jenner released the name of her newborn son, potentially early to try to flip the script on what made all of us go “Yikes!” this week… i.

Si & Veronica are rolling back the tape for episode 201! Serene got a pier all to herself with Clayton for her 1:1. They finally took their travels actually international… to Canada. Gabby has been deemed the annoyingly quirky girl. We reached the point of the roast date and the girls didn’t hold back (and did some gimme roasts to Shanae who wasn’t even there). Shanae and Genevieve set sail into Niagara Falls… and we will have to wait until next week to figure out which one makes it out on the other side. (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 47m:23s) Joe Jonas is looking to put his dancing/DNCE shoes back on with a new single from his spin-off band on the horizon. In baby news, Shay Mitchell is expecting her second child and Kylie Jenner gave birth to her baby boy on 2/2/22. Will she use the name reveal as a marketing tool? We know the devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder. Oscar noms are out and “Dune” raked in a lot of noms and Lady Gaga and her Italian accent received zero. Vee went “Yikes!”

Si & Veronica are celebrating (and bickering like the old times) for episode 200! Shrimpgate unfortunately took up a ton of time at the beginning of the episode and Elizabeth’s time on the show has ended. Jesse Palmer tries to convince the girls that Houston is the international trip of their dreams. Rachel solidified her role as a frontrunner with lots of sappy whispers. Meanwhile Shanae solidified her role as a villain by crashing the after party and tossing a trophy. Will she make it to the final four? (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 43m:17s) Lots of baby news this week as Rihanna confirms her pregnancy with A$AP Rocky in true icon fashion. Nick Cannon is expecting his EIGHTH child. Rest in peace to the lovely Chelsie Kryst, Miss USA 2019. If you’re struggling, know that you aren’t alone. More artists are looking to follow in Neil Young’s footsteps over controversy with Joe Rogan and Spotify. Ye claims Donda 2 will come out 2/22/22, but this isn’t our first rodeo with his releases. Speaking of Ye

Si & Veronica are craving shrimp and M&Ms for this episode 199! We saw Cassidy get the boot at the beginning of this week’s Bachelor episode after she very cockily thought her rose would keep her safe. The first group date got deep about body insecurities and how people (women majorly) are objectified… and then the rest of the date goes on to objectify women! We had a stripped down one on one and then a “Baywatch” themed group date that had Clayton licking his chops. But the majority of this episode set up Shanae as the villain to beat with her Emmy-award winning victim acting. (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 47m:19s) We lost some more entertainment greats this past week with the passing of Meat Loaf and Louie Anderson. There is a bit of closure in the Gabby Petito/Brian Laundrie case after the FBI found Brian’s notebook saying he killed Gabby. Nick and Priyanka Jonas welcomed a baby girl via surrogate this past week. Does this mean all the daughters of the Jonas Brothers will have to make a Jon

Si & Veronica are faced with another Bachelor-free week for episode 198! Clayton did clapback on the Tik Tok trolls saying how he never claimed to be a saint and single is as single does. Those mid-Missouri gals might have some other thoughts… One of Kaitlyn Bristowe’s contestants, Clint Arlis, suddenly died this past week. A couple of bachelor babies have been born and named, respectively. Adam and Raven welcomed a baby boy, while Ashley I. and Jared took to Amazon Live to announce the Leo DiCaprio-inspired baby name of their soon-to-arrive son. (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 25m:32s) Perfectly boho couple Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet are no more. Paramore is officially back in the studio… which is perfect timing to headline the When We Were Young festival this fall with new music. The internet is casting doubts on the jam packed emo fest and whether it’s worth the money. Will this be Fyre Fest 2.0? Jamie Lynn Spears is making the press circuit for her new book and got two episodes worth of time wit

Si & Veronica are celebrating an early bday for Vee for episode 197! Two flaxen-haired villains came out of this dramatic second episode. Cassidy and Shanae may have their cockiness thrown back in their faces really soon. Hilary Duff excited the girls in ways that Clayton never will, even though the date she led was pretty dumb. Will we even remember the status of the rose ceremony cliffhanger when the show comes back in two weeks? There might be some relationship shake ups in bachelor nation with rumors swirling about a Riley/Maurissa break up, and Clare being seen hanging off of her former contestant, Blake Monar, in Indiana.   (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 38m:03s) The entertainment world lost one of the OG dads with Bob Saget’s passing. Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox are engaged, and maybe they should just plan a joint punk wedding with Kravis. Award shows might be a dying breed after the Golden Globes sans broadcast and the Grammys having to postpone due to Covid concerns. Vee went “Yikes!

Si & Veronica are celebrating our 4-year anniversary with episode 196! And we switched up our show format a bit so you get Bachelor recaps and news up top! Clayton’s season might not be as boring as predicted. Salley sent herself home before even stepping foot in a limo. Claire became America’s fucked up kind of sweetheart by shit talking Clayton and eating chicken wings. And do we really think that the end of season preview they keep showing us isn’t edited to throw us off the top three’s scent?   (Bachelor talk ends at time marker 40m:12s) In pop culture news, we lost a big star with Betty White passing away just weeks before her 100th birthday. Tristan Thompson continues to make a fool of himself by apologizing to Khloe and announcing his paternity to Marlee Nichols’ baby within the same IG story. It’s a new year, which means new music from The Weeknd this weekend. Dr. Dre and his ex-wife have reached a divorce settlement that is looking mighty lucrative for both of them. Vee went “Yikes!” to Jason

Si & Veronica wish you a happy new year with the last episode of 2021, episode 195! RIP to NFL legend John Madden. In happier news, a pod fave, Jojo (the singer), got engaged to her actor boyfriend (known for his recent role in the “Saved by the Bell” reboot). What a Christmas present! Olivia Munn posted a pic of her and John Mulaney’s baby boy. The timing of his birth was a month ago, making the math to his conception extra dicey with when John got out of rehab and his divorce from his wife. Dior has postponed their Cactus Jack collection that was supposed to drop Summer 2022. Things are still spiraling for Travis Scott it seems. Vee went “Yikes!” to Kanye moving in across the street from his estranged ex wife Kim Kardashian. Sure, it will make it overly easy for him to coparent, but it will also just let him track Pete Davidson’s comings and goings. It was a bye week for Bachelor Nation, but Michelle made sure to add some spice to it by revealing the “light-skinned baller” that Jamie spun all the men in
