Hannah Brown Says She Can't Get on the Celebrity Dating App, Raya
Hannah Brown is down to find love on Raya…if only they would let her on!
According to the former Bachelorette and winner of Dancing with the Stars, the popular “celebrity” dating app has completely ghosted her application. “I don’t know if you know this but I was the Bachelorette,” Hannah jokingly complained on her Instagram story. “And I can’t get on Raya. I’ve been on the waiting list for months now.” One Reddit user recorded the entire three-story rant for your viewing pleasure.
Apparently, Hannah’s friend Elyse Murphy, also featured in the video, is a pastor who was approved by the app. To be fair, Murphy has 20K followers on the ‘gram, which is nothing to scoff at. Plus, she even offered Brown her profile, which she says she’s no longer using.
“No no no, I’m done. Christian Mingle, here I come,” Brown declared in response. But will they approve? “I might not be allowed on Christian Mingle at this point, but Jesus still loves me,” she joked. This is probably referring to that time she boasted on national television that she had sex with current Bachelor Peter Weber four times in a windmill. “Jesus still loves me” has become a sort of slogan for Brown since that moment and appears in her Instagram bio and posts.
Many commenters on Reddit have already come to Brown’s defense. “Someone at Raya must still be in a denial den/cockpit/ballroom,” one poster wrote. Another said Raya is “so embarrassing” anyway, which launched a debate about the app’s users, which may or may not consist mostly of “Australian DJs, youtubers, semipopular podcasters, and macro-influencers.”
Maybe Brown should commiserate about the celebrity dating game with Lucy Hale. The Katy Keene star recently admitted that she swiped right on John Mayer on a VIP app that’s so secret, she can’t even say its name. Unfortunately, she doesn’t think he swiped back.
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times: If Alabama Hannah and the girl from Pretty Little Liars can’t find love, what hope is there for the rest of us?
