As I watched the new season of The Bachelor, I realized there were no women of color on the show. Maybe they came to their senses and stayed home during the casting call. I really doubt that...but it was a nice thought. Was there a memo to the casting people that said no natural tans allowed? You know what I mean. Maybe the new Bachelor isn't into black women. Out of 13 season of the Bachelor and 4 seasons of the Bachelorette, there hasn't been a black person in the main spot looking for love on the show. They haven't even had a black person living in the house make it to the final 2. When do we get to have our Cinderella dream date?
Wake up ABC!! We have a black President...but we are still waiting for a black Bachelor/Bachelorette. I refuse to believe the only black men worthy of dating on TV are Real, Chance, Ray J and Flavor Flav. I know there is a single black man or woman out there that would make a great candidate for the show. As a side note, when you do get a black person for the show...they don't have to be a professional athlete or ententainer. I want to see someone that is successful, professional and has a good heart. And no stripper poles in the house. Not that there's anything wrong with that...but leave that stuff over at VH1.
