Which now brings us to Arie. Honestly, I’m still processing all of this. Once the announcement was official, and again I was out of town, the emails started coming fast and furious. I have not had the time to sit down and read every single thing I’ve been sent to me by a girl from Arie’s past. I’ve skimmed everything, but right now I’m in the process of finding out what’s true and what isn’t, all while getting ready to confirm girls for Arie’s season. As of this moment, I have 6 girls confirmed. I’m sure I’ll have more by next week when I start releasing them. But I don’t want to immediately start running with certain things yet. We’ve got Arie on the brain for the next 6 months or so, so they’ll be plenty to talk about. No need to blow my wad so early. That’s what she said.
Anyway, since I know there are still a lot of you that don’t follow me on Twitter, I can’t stress enough that you’re missing out if you’re not following. All my stuff on Arie and what not was done on Twitter Wednesday and Thursday. And yes, there are people that don’t follow on Twitter because do you know how many people emailed me Thursday, Friday, and even SATURDAY saying, “Hey, did you know Arie was named the Bachelor?” So here were the tweets I put out on Thursday:
Oh it's already starting. She isn't the first, and certainly won't be the last… pic.twitter.com/DpU4RFCeUA

Lets not forget about what Courtney said he did in her book. And she's his friend… pic.twitter.com/X7Wf1mNwRk

Sooooooooo yeah. There’s a lot out there. Sydney has already come forward with an interview posted today clarifying when their actual break up happened, something that’s already being misreported. Arie really isn’t any different from the rest of them in terms of the ultimate goal of the show. Despite what some close to him may say, and yes I’m speaking of Courtney, I don’t think for a second he’s looking to be married and settled down. His behavior proves otherwise. There are so many girls out there with so many stories about the lying and cheating he did when he was with them. He’s taking the “Bachelor” gig because it’s an opportunity he couldn’t pass up. Oh sure, he’ll get engaged at the end of this thing, but just like I told you with Nick that ended up being true, Arie has zero interest in marrying who he chooses in the end. It’s kind of a joke at this point. More so than any previous “Bachelor” before him. The guy is about to be 36 (next Monday) and acts like he’s 21 when it comes to women. He’s not gonna change his spots overnight because he’s now the “Bachelor.”
There are so many things to get into regarding this and there’s a lot of work on my end to do now. First and foremost though, filming starts next week. The girls are arriving this weekend, so my guess is filming will start Tuesday or Wednesday night, the 19th or 20th, which is right around the time they start filming every season. And per usual, I will spoil the season in real time as much as I can. Some of the girls will be released next week, and then periodically throughout the next few months. I say this every season and I’ll say it again: there’s no rhyme or reason as to how many and when I start releasing the contestants. It’s the easiest part of spoiling every season and not something that’s a huge deal. Stuff gets out a lot more on social media now in regards to contestants going on the show. So if I can get out in front of it for some, that’s great. But it’s nearly impossible for all. So that’s why I don’t concern myself too much with it. You’ve had pretty much your full cast released on this site before ABC does for the last 6 or 7 years. This season will be no different.
There are already people telling me I’m being unfair to Arie and I have a vendetta against him and blah blah blah. Look, if he didn’t have all these stories about him, then I’d have nothing to report. But he does. And it goes back YEARS. I exposed the guy five years ago for being a player and after the influx of people who contacted me Thursday after the announcement, I can see that nothing has changed in the least bit with him. I don’t really get it, but I will report stuff that I think you will be interested to hear. I just need some time to gather a lot of it because it’s coming fast and furious at this point. I get that not every story is true, but those tweets and those girls that posted he definitely had a past with – not to mention others. They’re coming. This will be the most tabloid filled season this show has ever had and it won’t even be close.
I do what I do every season regardless of who the “Bachelor/ette” is. Arie just happens to have more baggage than all previous leads combined pretty much, so yeah, there will be stories I report on. The people who choose not to believe them or say it doesn’t matter are just ignorant #TeamArie people whose opinion I could care less about. I know there’s a whole army of them that already hate me for what I wrote about him 5 years ago, and I’m sure they’ll continue to hate me during this season. Great. I’m not writing to appease them. Because they’re so blinded by Arie, no matter what I say with whatever proof I have, anything negative about him they won’t believe anyway, so that’s why I don’t concern myself with trolls like that. But trust me, they’ll be scouring ever word I write and have something to say about it. Unfortunately that’s how they function. You can’t reason with crazy. We saw that with Peter fans. Lets see what level the Arie crazies can bring that to this season. They’re obsessed with me and I don’t give two sh**s about them. This will be interesting.
