To have a man play guitar and sing to you is cool.
What we realized is if you don't see yourself represented - no matter if it is on TV or in a club or whatever - you're probably not going to want to attend. You're not going to feel comfortable.
Hard to believe, I'm sure, but I am not a tattoo guy. Never had one and never will.
I attempt to do my best and do what's right, but that doesn't mean I'm always right.
I'm from Texas and grew up in the South. Very old-school and traditional. Married, had a kid. Suit and tie. The guy next door.
Every guy has his own style and his own way of sharing his feelings and love for a woman. Who am I to judge whether it's right or wrong?
The Bachelor' has always been a great show that embraces what's happening in the world and embraces pop culture.
I live a healthy life, but I don't do eight hours in the gym, nor do I want to.
That's one of the things that is hardest about being the Bachelor. You often have to end relationships that are actually going quite well, just because your time together is up. If other relationships are further along, you have to go with your gut and follow your heart.
As a grown adult, if you can't look a woman or look a man in the eye and say, 'I have serious feelings for you' and instead you have to say, 'Do you like me? Check yes or no,' like we're in grade school, that to me is a red flag of maturity as far as a relationship goes.
I'm not really the type of guy that dates out loud, lives out loud.
The truth is that the right decision often can't be led with either head or heart exclusively.
I think there is an insatiable appetite for romance and for love stories, which is partly why these books and movies do so well.
Being dumped sucks, period.
I was a sportscaster right out of school. I used to do the nightly newscast and the nightly sportscast and I would write, produce, do live shots. Yeah, I loved it. That's how I cut my teeth in the business.
I don't get to like-watch anything, much less hate-watch. I don't have time for that.
Ironically, 'The Bachelor' and 'Bachelorette' have always provided that. We've created this community that people feel like they're really a part of and 'Listen to Your Heart' is gonna be an extension of that... It's something you can feel a part of.
Everybody understands companionship, wants it, gets it, no matter what it looks like.
I always like how a seemingly benign activity that was meant to be fun can turn into drama.
You are responsible for the choices you make in this life period, end of story.
