DeAnna is 'The Bachelorette'

Pappas_l This just in: DeAnna Pappas — the brunette who took Bachelor Brad Womack's decision to stay single the hardest — will be the new Bachelorette when the show returns this summer. According to the ABC press release, the 26-year-old real estate agent from Georgia is assertive and independent, and enjoys cooking, bartending, white water rafting and camping. She has also "traveled all over Europe, putting her Greek ancestry to good use." "Interested and eligible men" — I love that they felt the need to spell out eligible — can throw their hats into the casting ring by logging on to www.thebachelor.tv or calling 866-739-3150.

Personally, I'm all for DeAnna being the Bachelorette because (a) it's always more fun when the contestants know something about the Bachelor or Bachelorette and (b) you know if this show is going to have a full run, DeAnna will need to lead more than one man on. Let's see how she handles that. (I suggest she revist my translation of Brad's psychobabble.)

Are you in?

I was shocked at her choice. Jason and her were more than perfect together. Even Jeremy would have been better than Jesse. Jesse is a nice guy, but I just don't think ya'll were meant to be. The episode when you went to visit his family...was a beautiful one. You fit in with his family. You guys are def. adorable together and I feel that you just made the wrong choice. Jesse was always nervous and could never truly explain how he felt, it was always just I love her. Nothing more. You could tell by just looking at Jason he was inlove with DeAnna. From the moment I saw Jason i was like this guy is going to win, and he should have.

I feel that Deanna made a big mistake, not choosing Jason. He is such a quality man, one in a million, and he truly loved her! How sad. I will be surprised if her union with Jesse lasts, because he seems flighty, although I do wish them the best.

I'm so annoyed w/ the finale last night. I didn't really watch all season but I did catch the one episode w/ Jason and his son (I guess when they went to his home and I thought he was a good catch for her. So I watched last night and didn't think she'd be stupid enough to pick Jessi! I wasn't basing it on looks although Jessi reminds me of the Judd Nelson in the Breakfast club but he was just wrong from what I saw. I'm actually annoyed at how annoyed I am at this show. Am I wrong to think that there were alot of happy girls last night to know Jason is available? Wow what a catch he is! Didn't know much about the Jeremy guy but Deanna you've made alot of girls happy by picking the wrong guy. ENjoy being single in a few months

Bad choice? Any bets on how long this mess lasts? Wrong one "Miss I've been hurt and I want true love!" Puleazze!

Deanna obviously is a play girl and not looking to settle down and be loved and cared for. Come on - Jesse, the hippy freak! No way. I loved Jason, the handsome Gentleman. Oh well, another divorce in the works come a year from now.

Deanna she Is so dumb Jeremy was perfect She messed up Jesse is so ugly come on He has no future. Sole Mate you got to be kidding me. Let it last a year seriously. Well I guess You get what you deserve. Jeremy should be the next bachlor. GO JEREMY!!!
My family loves you and I think your so cute!!!!!!!!

OMG Mon, Jul 7, 2008 at 09:25 PM EST

Deanna is so dumb!!! She let Jeremy go and now Jason. Jesse is so ugly. She has made the biggest mistake ever.

CeCe Mon, Jul 7, 2008 at 09:05 PM EST

DeAnna made the biggest mistake by picking the wrong person. You don't want security just fun.You let two of the best men go. Jeremy has no job after skatboarding. Your family like Jason. I was so disapointed watching the last episode. I was so disappointed and disguested. DeAnna counldn't know what she wants, not marriage and forever. Her decision will not last.

Karen Tue, Jul 1, 2008 at 09:30 AM EST

I can't watch the bachelorette any longer. Deanna made the biggest mistake of her life letting Jeremy go. I hope that they give Jeremy a chance to become the Bachelor. He deserves to be happy too!

I love DeAnna!! I always wonder about everyone's ulterior motives, but I'm hooked...I love it when they bring back a reject! Good Luck Dee! Greeks rock!

Nancy Fri, Feb 1, 2008 at 11:00 AM EST

Oh, goodie. More eyelashes batting "at the speed of a hummingbird's wings" (my favorite Slezak line).

jes Fri, Feb 1, 2008 at 09:02 AM EST

YAY!!! I loved Deanna! And she was so darn cute on Ellen yesterday when Ellen told her the news.

Lene Thu, Jan 31, 2008 at 11:26 PM EST

She "traveled all over Europe, putting her Greek ancestry to good use."


I love this phrase! What does it even mean?! Did she make Baklava for French schoolchildren? Did she hand out Gyro's in Belgium?

Emily Thu, Jan 31, 2008 at 06:06 PM EST

I am so in!!! Go Deanna!!!

Snarf Thu, Jan 31, 2008 at 05:56 PM EST

Have to wonder if she plans to "remain" single and kick all her would be made for reality tv suiters under the proverbal bus. Revenge after all, is best served on network TV.
