The Bachelor Will Be Sued For Discriminating Against Non-White People

Last year, Entertainment Weekly asked the creator of The Bachelor if there will ever be a Bachelor or Bachelorette who isn't white and this is what splattered out of his douche hole:

"I think Ashley is 1/16th Cherokee Indian, but I cannot confirm. But that is my suspicion! We really tried, but sometimes we feel guilty of tokenism. Oh, we have to wedge African-American chicks in there! We always want to cast for ethnic diversity, it’s just that for whatever reason, they don’t come forward. I wish they would."

That leads our asses to this story from The Hollywood Reporter. Minor league football players Christopher Johnson and Nathaniel Claybrooks announced that they will throw a class-action lawsuit at the producers of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette for committing an act of racial discrimination by not once featuring a non-white person as the Bachelor or Bachelorette during all 23 seasons (yes, TWENTY THREE FUCKING SEASONS OF WRECKERY) of that shit. Both Nathaniel and Christopher went to an open call in Nashville for The Bachelor, but they were pushed to the side of the room and weren't given a regular audition. They didn't get called back and they say it's because their skin color isn't #FFFFFF.

Most of the boring hos on The Bachelor shows have the personality of armpit dandruff and they're so desperate that they look like members of the Jennifer Love Hewitt Tribe. They wear the ugliest dresses bought from a prom shop's going out of business sale and when they go back home their neighbors chase them away for shaming their town. So if the producers turned me down, I'd take that as a compliment.

And speaking of lawsuits against The Bachelor, when is Gloria Allred going to file a complaint in federal court on behalf of roses everywhere. Think of the roses that have been wasted on those basic ass bitches. The Bachelor has slowly been committing rose genocide for years and they must be stopped!

Perhaps I should care about this show, but I just can't.

Considering the gazillion "actor/actress" wannabes in la and beyond, esp in this famewhoring world, they probably do discriminate against minorities/mixed ppl, not just black ppl. But the show will win the women part of the case by saying the casting matches romantic preferences of the men. As for the men, bitch did get sued, indeed.

i hope they win the lawsuit, not even a hispanic person, come on

Zactly. I'm surprised this show is still airing.

"That Show Where White People Give One Another Herpes'

Considering that black women have more herpes than any other race on the damned planet, I find your quote laughable.

I'm really surprised that non-white people would even care about this show...it sucks!

Rationally, I get that it's the principle of the thing. I do. Everyone should be allowed equal opportunity to embarrass the fuck out of themselves on national TV. But who really wants to be one of these desperate people on these dumb-ass shows?

Only white people in 23 seasons is racist because it implies only white people is stupid enough to take part on that pathetic show.

we all enjoyed Flavor of Love but imo it would be nice to see some women of color fighting over an actual eligible bachelor instead of a burnt-up french fry drunk-looking cockroach with 10 kids, one of which he fathered DURING the show.

Someone should sue the shit producers of this show for cruelty to white people. I did watch one episode and hated myself afterward. I'd rather stare at a blank TV screen. Cannot believe this show is still on ....

Interesting comments. I'm not sure that The Bachelor is legally required to accept any quotas, but here is the important thing about that lawsuit. It brings it to the attention of everyone. If they want to be "The White Bachelor," that's cool but they don't do that. I think that if they have a rule that black people can't be on the show they should simply say so...
That would be a problem, though, because people would protest and boycott, so they're being sneaky about it.
Call it "The White Bachelor" and have Vanilla Gorilla star in it, and it would be like a white power version of Book of Love. They could make choppers, too. White bitches love choppers.

I'm all for equality, but why fight to be part of a reality tv show that humiliates men and women for ratings?? I don't get it.

I can't believe people waste their time watching this garbage.

I wish my people wouldn't want to be a part of such Tomfoolery. I'm all for equal rights but do we need to fight for the right to look like a dumb fucking fool on national television? Isn't Basketball "Wives" enough????

boredasfuckyo's picture

How the fuck can they sue? It's their show, I thought that meant they could chose who they wanted to appear on it, and if anyone didn't like it they didn't have to participate and/or watch. The bachelor/bachelorette is bullshit anyway, so anyone angry over anything besides that show being on the air is suspect to me.

Ratings are so down anyway, nobody watches. So why not mix up the formula?

zestyfuzz's picture

The show would take on a whole new dynamic if it was a black man and all white women competing. The producers would then have to decide if they should cast mostly white women or mostly black women. I doubt many black women watch this show.

I haven't watched 'The Bachelor' in a long time but it seems like they cast the same kind of people. They are all pretty, skinny, white women in their 20s with no kids. The producers have to take into consideration who they would want to fight over. That formula has worked for the show so far.

They should use hydrangeas not roses and see which bitches "loathe" them.

Why don't they have a ghey Bachelor show? Or do they have one and I missed it(?) I'd watch that shit.

SANS FARDS's picture

Seriously, these guys should consider it a compliment to minorities that they weren't featured on either the Bachelor or the Bachelorette. I've always thought that perhaps the function of this show was to make white people look stupid.

Imo the names of the bachelorettes have to be written on the rose especially @ the beginning because a)he's not gonna remember everyones name straight away & b) they stare @ the rose for awhile before saying so&so will u accept this rose.

They should sue the show for being a big fat fake fest. These people go on the show to live in a mansion and drink free booze and eat free food. Then if they are lucky enough to make it to the end they get to go on all these fancy trips overseas. That last bachelor Ben my God what a dipshit.

White people are better lookin in general than other races, Asians all look the same and BARELY stand out from one another, blacks have too strong of features that just don't compliment a face, and latinos can be attractive but they can't take the time to learn proper English to be on national TV.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think middle eastern people in general are the best looking race because their features are generally very striking, i.e. thick luscious hair, big piercing eyes, full lips and strong bone structure while in white people these features tend to be a little understated and washed out and blacks, vise verse, a little overstated and pronounced. I think this is the reason mixed children often times turn out so beautiful, because they have a good mix of the two. And there are millions of Hispanics who are American born and speak only English.

Aw shit, brings me back to my myspace days. White text on black background. Back in college I had to take a computer programming class, and my way of practicing was tweaking my profile.

I'm African-American and I was actually approached by the producers of The Bachelor when I was walking home from work a couple of years ago. They asked me some random questions and then told me that I was basically "in" as long as I showed up for the casting call. They even said that I could come in before the general auditions started so that I wouldn't have to wait with the crowds. But I didn't show up, because I'm not the type to compete for a man's attention and I didn't really want to be on a reality show. They even called me twice the day of the auditions asking me to stop by. Oh, and yes they were legit producers: the same peoples names that you see in the credits of the show.
