What the hell is going on The bachelor?
The drama of Matt Jamesseason of– currently on the air, it is the program first black Bachelor despite the fact that the franchise has been on the air for more than two decades – it has been eclipsed by online controversy. Here is the summary: Rachel KirkConnell, one of the top three contestants in James’ season, posted photos at an antebellum fraternity party three years ago, prompting justified allegations of racism by the Single Nation. Rachel Lindsay, the first black singleasked the host Chris Harrison about the incident, and he put his foot right in the mouth, essentially alluding to the fact that the photo was probably good because it was taken in 2018 and not in 2021. “I am not the policeman awake,” he said. KirkConnell apologized. Harrison also did and announced that he and ABC decided to remove it of this season’s “After the Final Rose” episode, as it had not yet been filmed. The following week, James released its own statement, writing, “Watching Chris’s failure to receive and understand the emotional work my friend Rachel Lindsay was taking on in explaining gracefully and patiently the racist history of South Antebellum, a painful story that every American should understand intimately, was worrying and painful for Watch.”
Ex-competitors in The bachelor and The maiden showed his support for James. TMZ reported that ABC can hire someone who doesn’t even exist in The bachelor world to host the episode “After the Final Rose” for Harrison, because Rachel Lindsay allegedly said no.
On Monday, Lindsay, however, directed KirkConnell on her podcast “Bachelor Happy Hour” with, “You almost feel like you know everything you need to know about her in that photo. The fact that I decided to do this … Your apology was well written, it was beautiful and it was sincere. I will not criticize anyone’s excuses. But then the next step is to act. ”She also said that she wants a former football star, author and host of the web show Uncomfortable conversations with a black man Emmanuel I think to replace Harrison, but at that point, shouldn’t he just take over the series? Someone should, at least, because the franchise has fallen. Bye Bye, Singles. [TMZ]
G / O Media can receive a commission
In completely unsurprising news – The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the committee responsible for nominating / voting The Golden Globe“He admitted that he doesn’t have a single black member.” But, according The Los Angeles Times, they are “committed to addressing” the issue of diversity. Great.
Remember #OscarsSoWhite? It looks like it’s time for #GoldenGlobesSoWhite. Now the I can destroy you snub makes sense, as does the fact that the year Oscar candidates led by blacks like Da 5 Bloods, Black Bottom by Ma Rainey, and Judas and the Black Messiah, received no nominations for Best Picture.
