The “Bachelor” pad is filling up.
ABC has revealed the hopes, dreams, quirks and fears of the 30 single ladies hoping to snatch the heart of 28-year-old airline pilot Peter Weber next season on the reality show. They may have their work cut out for them, as lovelorn Peter was famously ditched by Hannah Brown in “The Bachelorette” finale after several windmill hookups.
The 24th season of “The Bachelor” will kick off with a three-hour special airing at 8 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 6, 2020. New York City will be represented by just two girls in the cast, who both have fears that could easily kick in at the lush Villa de la Vina: Natasha is a 31-year-old event planner who is “afraid of rats, mice, spiders and anything that crawls,” according to her bio, and Lexi, a 26-year-old marketing coordinator, says she “would rather be buried alive” than be “trapped in a room filled with frogs.” (City slickers can be so much fun!)
Here are some of the other contestants who stand out amongst the full cast list, for better or worse.
Most likely to let old habits die hard:
Eunice, a 23-year-old flight attendant from Chicago, is a professed “reformed party girl who is ready to get serious about settling down,” according to her bio, which adds: “She’s left her sorority party days behind her.” Of course, her bio also says, “She can knock back ouzo like it’s water.” So there’s that.
Beauty queens reign:
Competition is in the hearts of some of these ladies, who have previously vied for crowns in beauty pageants.
Victoria P., a 27-year-old nurse from Alexandria, Louisiana, has competed in the Miss Louisiana pageant and her biggest fears are “murky waters she can’t see her feet in, and chicken served on the bone.” According to her bio, she also hates raisins in her cookies.
Maurissa, a 23-year-old patient care coordinator in Atlanta, was crowned Miss Montana Teen and also competed in Miss Teen USA pageants — “but she says it was one of the worst times in her life.” She also says “dating as a redhead is hard.”
Kelsey, 28, is a professional clothier from Des Moines, Iowa, who was crowned Miss Iowa in 2017 and later competed at Miss USA. Kelsey’s bio says she is “an old pro at competing with other women, but don’t get it twisted, she’s not looking for drama.” Good luck with that.
Alayah, 24, is the reigning Miss Texas 2019 and competed in the tournament three times before winning.
The talker:
Kiarra, a 23-year-old nanny from Kennesaw, Georgia, “LOVES talking” and says her greatest skill is that she “can literally talk to a brick wall about anything and everything.”
Animal lovers:
Dr. Dolittle would be proud of these self-described animal lovers. But it’s not all cats and dogs…
Jenna, 22-year-old nursing student in New Lenox, Illinois, has a pet goldfish named George, who she says “gives great advice.”
Katrina, a 28-year-old pro sports dancer from Chicago, says her “most serious relationship” is with her hairless cat, Jasmine, who is named after the Disney princess. Her bio says the duo “literally do everything together, from birthday parties to shopping to watching TV on the couch. They are definitely a packaged duo, but there’s room for one more on their magic carpet ride.” They have also dressed up as each other for Halloween. No, really.
Savannah, a 27-year-old realtor in Houston, Texas, refers to herself as “The Turtle Princess” because she loves hanging on her back porch to feed local turtles. Fun fact from her bio: “When Savannah wants to treat herself, she indulges in a Vampire Facial.”
Avonlea, a 27-year-old cattle rancher hailing from Fort Worth, Texas, has lived on a ranch since she was 13. Her bio says that every time she milks one of her cows, “she thanks it for its hard work.”
Most likely already dreaming of the ‘fantasy suite’:
Tammy, a 24-year-old house-flipper from Syracuse, New York, salivated over bachelor Peter, saying, “He is looking so freaking delicious. Like, I just wanna lick him up and down.” Fun fact: Tammy played on the boys’ varsity wrestling team at her high school, helping lead them to a 7-1 record.
And here are the rest of the contestants vying for Peter’s love.
