The new Bachelorette - Ali

Per FoRt the show starts filming this weekend - March 13 and will start airing on March 24...

I have real high hopes for this one! I have a feeling this one will be great - I like her, she seems down to earth and I think she really is looking for a relationship. I hope they find some good guys for her season.

First, I didn't like Vienna.

Still, I have had a hard time getting past the gossipy, girl-clique manner in which Ali went after Vienna at every turn. I'm sure Vienna was annoying, but Ali was almost like a bully with her and I can't stand seeing anyone being ganged up on.

But time heals and I'm ready for the next show. Ali was my favorite last season even before the premier. After the first two episodes, I thought she was the best of the bunch.

So I will give her a 2nd chance and wish her well.

Can I say that I think she has a big butt? I think that's why she wears loose clothing. Still, she's a beauty.
