Watching the last “Women Tell All” just totally baffled me. There they were, pretty women groomed to their finest, behaving like fishwives. A few of them evidently had a bone to pick with Michelle, the self-appointed narrator prior to her Rose Ceremony exit. The taping of their episodes had been done for months yet it looked as though the grievances just happened yesterday. They just couldn’t pass up the chance to publicly throw dirt and mud at Michelle.
It made me seriously wonder if those women (whose names will not be mentioned here) actually behave in the same manner in the real world. I don't think that anyone who isn't as feisty as them would have the guts to showcase such agression on national television. I guess there are conflicts and altercations that can’t be left alone which makes it difficult to let bygones be bygones. The way the women went at it, it looked like they spent months storing all that hostile energy so that they could vent it on that show. And they wondered why Brad wouldn’t give them the time of day?
My point is… those women knew that whatever coarse action they demonstrated might not be edited out. Women behaving badly would remain their legacy. May their ridiculous outbursts not haunt them down the road. If you ask me, it wasn’t worth it. And all for what? For a ditzy dating show like “The Bachelor”? Somehow I struggle grasping the method behind their madness.
The women concerned (they know who they are!) only suceeded in making themselves look brassy, cheap and unpolished. Somehow it makes me sad because although girls will be girls, they didn’t have to stoop down to ugly confrontational level. You can tell how educated and polished people are by the way they handle stress with tact, dignity and finesse.
The unfortunate thing is that younger generations of girls were tuned in to that utterly foolish spectacle. It would be lamentable if they’ll think that such behavior was acceptable and a model to imitate. Heaven forbid!
Instead of talking about their Brad experiences, they made an issue of the things Michelle said or did when she was in the house. You know what I think? They just confirmed the fact that their participation in that show wasn’t all about the Bachelor. It’s pure and simple: their actions betrayed their real motives. To Michelle's credit, at the outset she made it known that she wasn't there to make friends, but to establish a Brad relationship.
In other words, the "Women Tell All" ended up looking like an out-of-control gripe session with poor Michelle crying her eyes out. Even Chris Harrison couldn’t help but look like a weak referee. After all that’s said and done, Michelle, the self-appointed villainess in the bachelorette pad, made herself look like a saint… even smelling like a rose. What about some of those women? They made themselves look like bullies who stunk like dead fish.
