“The Bachelorette”: “Jenny, give me the rose – otherwise I’ll pee my pants”

Here we go again. We hope you’re sitting comfortably and have a sandwich and maybe a champagne within reach. Well, or a chamomile tea. This year it is 27-year-old Jennifer Saro from Berlin who is looking for the man for life. Or at least the man for cute couple photos on Instagram. The special feature: She already has a child. So it will be interesting to see the men’s reactions to this information. The baby is filming in Thailand, Jennifer’s friend Melli takes care of the little one when the Bachelorette is on the way.

“I’d say: We’ll just do it,” the likeable brunette with the somewhat too voluminous lips introduces the first episode. We know the game: In this first episode she will be able to take a first look at the 18 candidates. They seem like a pretty wild mix to us… of mediocrity. Some with a macho attitude, some more like a cute little rascal, but not one who looks as if he reads a book from time to time.

The Bachelorette and her admirers

“I love snogging. I’m in the mood for snogging. As far as I’m concerned, we can all make out with each other right away,” adds Adrian from Würselen humorously. And Oguzhan from Hamburg states that he is now “in fucking Thailand” – “with a damn sunstroke on the head!” aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa As exhausting as the testosterone turmoil among the candidates seems most of the time, they are so romantic when RTL is directly on it with the camera: Suddenly they all supposedly want to kiss intensely and watch sunsets together. Even the color of the dress the bachelorette will wear to their first meeting seems to interest the boys.

Alex from Mannheim looks a bit like the young Sebastian Vettel, but chatters much more arrogantly. The facts that he can cook and…has hair? make him something very special in his opinion. OK. On the red carpet, at the end of which the bachelorette is waiting for the first greeting, he then drives up on his motorbike. But since he doesn’t talk too much, Jenny finds him “cute”. She doesn’t know him yet.

They’re all nervous

Ozughan is then, cutely, so blown away by The Bachelorette that he’s literally speechless. She hugs him warmly and says: “Then we’ll talk again later.” She also thinks it smells nice. Also Adrian, type vain peacock, seems quite nervous, but also finds Jenny “beautiful”. Jesaia from Stuttgart is then much more confident. He makes a likeable, eloquent appearance. And then the bachelorette also has brown hair – just like he wanted.

Fynn from Lüneburg stumbles and stutters through getting to know each other, although you don’t know exactly whether it’s his ploy or real excitement. Good-heartedly, Jenny still considers him “a really sweet mouse”. But was he lucky? Thomas, who was born in Vietnam, makes a less than good first impression because, in the heat of the moment, he makes a kind of interrogation out of the first encounter and then tries to make a joke about his homeland Vietnam and its proximity to Thailand, which ends up being terribly dreary . Jenny looks confused.

For Jenny it hails small gifts

Bearded Julian gets clever and gives the bachelorette a bracelet with the letter J so she won’t forget his name. Likes her. André brings a bottle of wine from his home region, which is always a good move. However, when he meets Jenny, he seems stiff and dry despite the alcohol present. (That was a coincidence and not a wine joke.) But at least one person came up with the idea of ​​the wine correct well received – by Ozughan. He claps loudly for André, for minutes, and crows “Respekt” and “Schapö” (which probably means ‘chapeau’), which causes Jenny to roll her eyes.

David, who looks like a friendly papi, talks about his little village called Langweiler and is generally cute and personable. Smart Yannick brings the bachelorette a small fascia ball with which to massage her feet later – apparently a good idea, because standing in high heels for a long time is bad for Jenny. The conversation between the two is a bit sweet. “…because I’m actually a sports scientist,” says Yannick. “Ah!” says Jenny. “And what did you study?” Yannick replies: “Sports Science”. Moron!

Machos and fashion designers

The broad-shouldered Baro comes with a lot of charm and charisma. The long-haired Kaan from Duisburg is so nervous and agitated that he even ends the brief welcome time with Jenny and stutters: “We’ll keep talking inside.” In addition, he seems to have problems understanding her rather uncomplicated name. Muscle man Pedro likes classical music and chess – it remains to be seen whether he also has social skills. Blonde Jesper is a fashion designer and half-Danish. He gives the bachelorette a candle so that it is “hygge” for them in Thailand too.

Oliver can score with the fact that he lives in Berlin like Jenny, but he also recognizes her Bavarian dialect directly – that’s where she grew up. Finally, the last candidate is Gianluca: RTL came up with the “gag” of driving the two previous men to the red carpet as a chauffeur in order to finally surprise the bachelorette. Works only half well. And it’s not funny in any way.

animal love everywhere

When everyone is finally gathered in the villa and can toast together, the usual back and forth starts: The men all want to talk to Jenny alone for a few minutes. Thomas starts asking (smartly) if she likes animals – he has two dogs himself. Baro comes in and reports that he also has two dogs. It’s good that the bachelorette then says that she also loves dogs. Otherwise it would have been uncomfortable. Daddy David watches the turmoil from afar and rhymes: “Jenny, give me the rose, or I’ll pee my pants.” OK?

Ozughan finally admits that he met Jenny on Tinder six years ago. He seems to remember the meeting better than she does though – she doesn’t remember it at all. And otherwise she has a bit of a problem with all the information she received from everyone that evening. And speaking of information: at the end of the evening she also reveals to the 18 gentlemen that she is already a mom. Some candidates suddenly seem very thoughtful. But some also show in a hearty way that they are still fully involved – Baro, for example, wants to know how often the child still wakes up at night.

In the end two men have to go

So after everything important has finally been brought to the stage, it’s time to get down to business: The Bachelorette has to distribute roses for the first time. A bit harsh, having only known the gentlemen for a few hours. The unfortunates whose adventure ends after the first episode are Thomas with the two dogs and Tim, who to be honest we can’t even remember.
