A ‘bachelor’ friend Matt James shamed the body of one of its competitors – Victoria Larson – but she really doesn’t seem to care much … if anything, she’s almost sorry.
We met Victoria on Friday night in Bev Hills and asked her about Matt’s golfing friend by commenting on her body in a surface clip that apparently was filmed after her season ended. The guy’s name is Jerry, and he seemed to be trying to distract Matt.

Shortly after the clip was posted, Victoria wrote … “Cute … I love my body :)” and then posted a photo of her body in a bikini, to silence the haters. In addition, she released a meme of men commenting on the beautiful bodies of women … almost as a comment.
As excited as she seemed at the time, Victoria was NOT so excited to end the body shame in our clip … as we said, she almost attributed it to “boys are boys” or “locker room to speak.” She didn’t use those words exactly, but the feeling was there.

Watch for yourself … she tells us that she doesn’t really think it was Jerry – the guy who made the comment – who embarrassed her, and she does it in a competitive environment, sometimes you say things to outwit your opponent. Hmmm … ok.
She went on to describe the whole conversation about it as “noise” … and when we asked if she expected Matt himself to have learned his lesson and if the franchise tried to be more inclusive … Victoria was careful not to throw a rock , actually praising Matt and avoiding the question.
It’s interesting … Matt was silent when his friend made the comment about Victoria’s body, but then was quick to condemn him during an appearance on “The Real”. He said he needed to surround himself with better friends, but he didn’t seem too bothered by it in real time.
The same for Victoria, apparently 🤷🏽♂️
