The Bachelorette 2018: Meet the Contenders!
Who… will… it…be?!?
This is the question on the minds of all ABC viewers at the moment, as we near the end of Arie Luyendyk Jr."s Bachelor season, which means we"re about to embark on a new Bachelorette season.
Will the star of the latter in 2018 be a woman we"ve met previously on this network? A woman Arie scorned? A fresh face entirely?
Scroll down to meet the contenders and then let us know who YOU want to see as The Bachelorette…
1. All About Arie… Sort Of
As previously reported, Arie proposes on The Bachelor finale… only to then dump his fiancee for his runner-up. How scandalous!
2. SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
Based on The Bachelor spoilers we’ve gathered, Arie will hand his final rose to Becca Kufrin. But will he end up with her?
3. In a Word?
No, Arie will dump Becca after just a few weeks, making her our top contender to be The Bachelorette. Makes for a pretty endearing backstory, right?
4. What About Lauren Burnham?
She’ll finish second on the finale, according to various reports, but will actually win Arie’s heart in the end… in controversial, possibly cheating fashion. So we can remove her name from The Bachelorette list.
5. Aren’t There Other Possibilities?
Absolutely. Tia Booth, for example, finished fourth on Arie’s season, but won over many viewers in the process.
6. And Kendall Long?
She was sent packing after a night in the Fantasy Suite with Arie, although she almost giggled when he dumped her. Perhaps because she knew something better was on the way?

Dancing With the Stars Recap: Will the Contenders Please Stand Up?
Dancing With the Stars’ 25th season is in full swing on ABC, and there have already been some surprising results to show for it.
Would this week yield more of the same?
This week, the contestants only had to perform a single routine, as opposed to the two they had to learn and perfect a week ago.
The task? A previously unlearned dance to reflect their favorite guilty pleasure, in non-traditional styles like Charleston and jazz.
Let’s break down the performances and the scores.
Drew Scott and Emma Slater – Argentine Tango – “Red Right Hand” by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
Drew Scott has struggled throughout the first few weeks of Dancing with the Stars Season 25, and it was a pleasant surprise to watch the improvement during his performance with Emma this week.
Drew dressed as a sexy detective, while Emma went with the look of a witness. It worked, and the judges were glad there was a noticeable improvement with the duo.
Score: 23/30
Derek Fisher and Sharna Burgess – Cha-Cha – “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” by DJ Jazzy Jeff and Will Smith
Like Drew, Derek has struggled to adapt to the routines, so he took extra care to get to grips with everything before the big performance. Being a fan of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, he found himself dancing along with Sharna to the main track from the iconic series.
He and Sharna dressed up in ’90s clothing and looked the part. The judges noted there was an improvement, but there was still a lot of room for some more.
Score: 21/30
Victoria Arlen and Val Chmerkovskiy – Quickstep – “Tubthumping” by Chumbawamba
Victoria and Val have been middle of the pack throughout the first few episodes, and this number did nothing to set them apart. There was meaning to the dance and the song choice.
It was about bullying in high school and how one person overcame it. There was nothing spectacular about the performance, but there was also nothing exactly horrible about it either.
Score: 22/30
Vanessa Lachey and Alan Bersten – Jazz – “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” by Cyndi Lauper
Unfortunately, Maks was out of the competition for the evening due to a personal matter, and it allowed Alan to step in for some dancing fun. The quality dips when there are changes to a strong duo.
Their routine was exciting and a welcome surprise considering the speedy switcheroo. Despite some middling feedback, it was still a successful performance.
Score 23/30
Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev – Viennese Waltz – “Love on the Brain” by Rihanna T
Nikki is a huge fan of romance novels, so we’re kind of surprised she’s a fan of 50 Shades of Grey because what’s romantic about the relationship between Anastasia and Christian?
They went with a risky performance that was not one we would normally expect from the show, but the judges are all for embracing change. That’s why Len has been giving out some positive feedback this season.
Score: 21/30
Frankie Muniz and Witney Carson – Samba – “It’s Gonna Be Me” by *NSYNC
Meh. That’s the best way to sum up this performance. Frankie has been a clear frontrunner since the beginning, but this performance seemed way too ambitious to keep it grounded.
His confidence seemed to take a hit throughout the routine, and that was not a good thing.
Score: 21/30
Lindsey Stirling and Mark Ballas – Jive – “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” by Wham!
Okay, so this was the big shocker of the night. Dealing with a breakup is not fun, and Mark helped Lindsay through it with a wonderfully choreographed dance routine that got the judges talking for all the right reasons.
More like this one, you guys!
Score: 27/30
Sasha Pieterse and Gleb Savchenko – Jazz – “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)” by The Four Tops
It was one step forward and two steps back for this duo. They went for far too many props for the whole baking guilty pleasure angle, and it hindered their performance.
The judges took notice, and they raced back down the leaderboard. Sigh.
Score: 19/30
Nick Lachey and Peta Murgatroyd – Jazz – “Jump (For My Love)” by The Pointer Sisters
Being a fan of romantic comedies, this duo went for a surprisingly romantic performance, and they utilized their skills very well, but it was not enough to gain more traction in the scoring department.
Score: 21/30
Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke – Salsa – “The Breaks” by Kurtis Blow
So, Terrell felt bad about liking breakdancing, so he decided to use it in his salsa with Cheryl, and it helped the duo garner their best results of the season. See! Changing things up works.
Score: 21/30
Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold – Charleston – “The Glory Days” by Michael Giacchino
This performance was colorful, and you can thank Jordan’s love of comic books for that one. It was great, and the sync was amazing. Jordan and Lindsay are so great together that if they don’t make it to the final, we will be very mad.
Score: 25/30
In a true stunner, there was no elimination, so everyone gets to dance another day!
What do you think of the scores?
Sound off below!
Dancing with the Stars continues next Monday on ABC!

Who is Kailyn Lowry"s Baby Daddy? Meet the Contenders, Ranked!
Ever since we learned that our favorite, combative Teen Mom 2 star is pregnant for the third time, we"ve been asking the same question:
Who is Kailyn Lowry"s baby daddy exactly?!
It goes without saying that the fact that she won"t reveal this – while living a very public life online and on reality TV – has fueled speculation.
Every day, in corners of the Internet near and far, fans of Lowry are parsing every tweet and word she utters, while scouring for clues.
This has actually been effective at times.
Below, we break down all the men linked to Kailyn in the weeks since she revealed she"s expecting, ranked by likelihood of impending fatherhood.
1. Chris Lopez
For starters, sources close to the 25-year-old reality star have identified the baby daddy as “a friend Kail was briefly dating,” which would seem to place him ahead of other candidates, with whom she merely had flings, if that (see persons #2 and #3 below). Then there’s this tweet, posted by Lopez back in January: “To my miracle child, I’m so sorry.” The only person to like the tweet (which has since been deleted)? Lowry. She also referred to “Chris” holding their hypothetical baby Holden, when a fan suggested that as a possible name, and, at another point, she called the unborn child “Baby Lo.” Altogether, it’s easy to see why he’s the consensus pick in many fans’ eyes.
2. Tyler Hill
Tyler Hill, also known as Ty Jennings, is a classmate of Kailyn Lowry’s at Delaware State University, and the same guy who caused a fight between Kailyn and Javi Marroquin back when they were still married because Javi was suspicious of their relationship. No wonder he emerged as a leading candidate when the baby daddy sweepstakes began to heat up.
3. JC Cueva
JC Cueva, a producer on Teen Mom 2 who works on Kailyn’s MTV segments, was one of the first people linked to Lowry romantically after she got pregnant. That relationship, or lack thereof, has been shot down by pretty much all parties involved, although even if it were true that he got her pregnant, he would have a pretty good reason to lie – keeping his job and all. Because the format of Teen Mom entails producers interacting with the cast, and often appearing on camera themselves, JC is certainly the most visible of Kailyn’s (rumored) suitors … but does that make him the dad?
4. Cabrell
Now we’re starting to reach a little bit. A fan recently contacted Lowry to ask if some dude named “Cabrell” is responsible for the son or daughter growing in her womb. Research indicates that Cabrell is another student at Delaware State University, the same school from which Lowry is slated to graduate this coming May. It’s not clear what Cabrell looks like, or if that’s his first name or his last name, but this time, Kailyn wasted no time in setting this record straight, replying as follows: “no wtf.” Okay then.
5. Jordan Wenner
Jordan Wenner, whom Kailyn met and dated years ago, may be familiar to fans of Teen Mom 2, as he appeared often in early seasons after Kail and Jo Rivera split up. Not surprisingly, as he is a man who once had a real relationship with Lowry, even he has been mentioned as a speculative baby daddy in 2017.
6. Jo Rivera
While this would make for one of the all-time scandals, and they have been getting along so much better lately compared to years past (and even compared to Kailyn and her ex-husband, below), it’s not happening. Chances that Jo Rivera – the father of Kailyn’s first-born son Isaac – stepped out on his fiancee Vee Torres, had an affair with Kailyn and got Lowry a second time would be only slightly more believable than the father being …
