2. Jef Holm: (No, that’s not a misspell. Dude goes with one “f.” Uh oh. I don’t know if I can trust a Jeff with one “f.”) 27, St. George, Utah. Graduated from Utah Valley University. Don’t have a lot of info on him yet, other than his LinkedIn page which shows he’s the CEO of People Water. Haven’t been able to find many pictures of him yet other than the one posted over at GlobalOdyssey.net. Once I get more, I will add to his profile. I posted a few “People Water” videos below. The first one is a profile of him, and the other two explain a little more of what his organization is about.

4. Travis Pope: 30, Madison, Mississippi, account executive for the Clarion Ledger newspaper. Graduated Mississippi State University in 2004. The interesting stuff is who he was previously engaged to. Lauren Jones, CEO of Lauren Jones Footwear, that you can Wikipedia right here. They were engaged about 2 years ago before breaking it off roughly 6 months later. I remember this chick from that “Anchorwoman” reality show a while back. I’m guessing once the season starts, if Travis lasts long, the tabloids will be all over this girl looking for info. Also, her and Travis were pitching a reality show together called “Chasin Dreams with Lauren and Travis.” The video below is from a photo shoot they did for “Bride” Magazine when they were still together. (Looks like someone informed Lauren about the video I posted since now it is set to “Private.” Oh well. It lasted a few hours at least.)

Needless to say, Sean has muscles.

Sorry, but the only picture I have as of now for Kyle is this one I found online from freshman year of college in 2001. Oh well. Waiting to get some more soon. However, I did see him in the group picture in one of the magazines that showed the guys heading to the after party of the Muppets date.

Although he tried to fake people out by changing the headline name on his LinkedIn Account to “Ryan Carbonaro,” it didn’t quite work since it’s still linked to his Twitter account. Not to mention all the info in this profile has been confirmed that’s his occupation and work history.

15. Michael Nance: 26 or 27, Austin, Tx. Musician. Here are the pictures of him jogging in front of the mansion back in March, and one of his rather subpar acoustic YouTube videos. I say subpar because, even though I’ve never heard that song, if I’m gonna play Randy Jackson right now, “That song got away from you, dawg.” Sounds like Michael runs out of breath quite a few times trying to keep up with the song. Has a website at MichaelNanceMusic.comthat has nothing on it. Also, you can see more of his live performances on his YouTube music channel (Hopps12714).

Dude fell off a balcony 15 feet and sued the construction company who built the balcony. Plenty of links to this story, you can read one of them right here.

Steve,
I was in Vail the first weekend in March and one of the locals had just found out he was chosen for Emily’s season. Apparently he is a pro snowboarder. Can you confirm?

This is the first time I’ve taken the time to look at the guys Emily has and I have to say I’m worried that she won’t find a match. Due to Emily’s situation I don’t see her being able to choose a guy that has a child. They can’t just up and move to be with her leaving their child behind. If they did that what kind of man would they be??? Also I don’t see her choosing a muscle bound poser. Hopefully these uber fit looking guys are not as high maintenance as they look. I do wish her all of the luck in the world though. I hope she enjoys the experience and does find love at the end of it

Michael Nance is an up and coming talent around the Austin and Texas region. I’m in the industry and he’s misrepresented here.. much more to his music and lyrics then that video and description you posted.

magsy: RS posted somewhere that it appeared as though Emily rather requested hunky model looking dudes. But, I’m not sure she’d want a guy she thinks is prettier than her! I dunno. We didn’t see enough of her in Brad’s season to tell whether she seemed high ego/high maintenance or not. I mean, I don’t just believe if it’s written on the internet or in rag mags that it’s true. We’ll have to wait and see.

What high school did Kalon McMahon go to?

Kalon went to Episcopal high school in Houston Texas.
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Kalon-McMahons-Memoir/237264379713677
Kalon Joseph Reid McMahon is on season 8 of the Bachelorette on ABC. He immediately clashes with the other guys who see right through him because he enters in a helicopter. This page is here to show that Kalon is the pompous, arrogant, egotistical, and narcissistic sycophant that he is painted out to be in the show. Several years ago, he wrote a memoir chronicling a trip to Los Angeles. This is something that he did not want many people to have, but the world deserves to know that Kalon is a liar and a cheater who only cares about himself. Above is the link to the facebook fan page with his memoir.Enjoy and Kalon does not know what is spell check .
