Bachelor Star Lauren Bushnell on Her $3,342 Wedding Beauty Look


These days it’s nearly impossible to know what women are spending on the way they look—especially for their wedding. Someone with Instagram-flawless contouring might’ve booked a friend for the task, and the utterly makeup-free type might’ve spent thousands on laser treatments and serums. Enter our series What It Costs to Be Me, in which we’re asking interesting women for radical transparency.

Next up? Lauren Bushnell, reality star and influencer, 29, from Nashville, TN. Her grand total? $3,342

Some brides have been planning their weddings since childhood, others, like Bachelor alum Lauren Bushnell, who married country singer Chris Lane in October, take a decidedly more lax approach. “I didn’t really fully know what I wanted,” Bushnell tells Glamour. “I’ve never been the type who envisioned my wedding day for years. I just knew I didn’t want anything over the top.”

That’s not to say it wasn’t an occasion we’ve come to expect from Bachelor stars. Rather, the couple placed more emphasis on personal touches than lavish details. “I really wanted it to be simple, elegant, and about the actual ceremony rather than about me getting really caught up in throwing this big wedding,” says Bushnell, who, over six travel-filled months, planned her Nashville ceremony and reception alongside wedding planner Josiah Carr. The result was a classic ceremony with plenty of greenery to remind Bushnell of her native Oregon, and an afterparty complete with a Shake Shack food truck.

The night before the wedding, Bushnell had a sleepover with her mom and sister to unwind and prepare for the day ahead. The morning of her mindset was simple: stay as relaxed as possible. “I made sure to get a really good night’s sleep, and took a nice hot bath before working through my vows a little bit.”

Meet the Women Vying for Peter Weber's Roses on the New Season of The Bachelor


Bachelor Nation: The time has almost come to start a new cycle of what will hopefully be the “most dramatic season ever” of The Bachelor as we watch former Bachelorette contestant Peter Weber—a.k.a. Pilot Pete—attempt to find true love.

This week, ABC released images and quick bios on the 30 women who will attempting to win Weber’s heart, though who knows what will happen when his former flame Hannah Brown shows back up. There are flight attendants, former pageant winners, and nurses, each looking for love on one of the longest-running reality shows we have.

Any seasoned fan knows that we won’t really get to know these women until we see them in action after they emerge from those limos. But, in the meantime, we combed through their bios to find our favorite fact about each one. Enjoy.

The new season of The Bachelor premieres on ABC on January 6 at 8 p.m. ET.

Hannah Brown Makes a Shocking Return in the Latest Trailer for The Bachelor


In a second scene, Brown and Weber are sitting very close together on a couch and looking extremely cozy, while the other women in the house seem to be spying on them. “I’m making decisions for my heart,” Brown says. “Because I know there’s still something there. And I would do anything for a relationship.” Then, he makes a shocking ask: “Hannah Brown, what I’m about to say is extremely crazy. What would you say if I asked you to come and be part of the house?”

Of course, we don’t get to hear her answer—but it would appear that this season is going to be very interesting indeed. Weber, of course, finished third in Brown’s season of The Bachelorette and she told People afterward that she cared very deeply for him. “I was in love with Peter,” she said. “I was pulled into different directions every other day. But I had to make a decision. I felt like my heart was broken.”

From the trailer, we also learn that Weber apparently has sex with at least one of the women in the house. “I don’t want this just to feel like it’s all about sex, but I have been intimate. I can’t lie to you about that,” he says. We also hear one contestant tell him, “You can’t do these things with other women or I’m leaving.”

The Bachelor premieres January 6 at 8 PM ET on ABC.

The Bachelor 2020: Of Course Peter Weber's First Promo Includes a Windmill


Peter Weber‘s season of The Bachelor airs in January, which seems like a lifetime away. But ABC just dropped a little something to tide us over: This first promo for what’s to come. And, reader, it’s wild.

The CGI-tastic teaser starts with a shot of a plane flying in the sky as a cover of Nina Simone’s “Feeling Good” plays. (A fitting image, seeing as how Weber is a pilot and was dubbed “Pilot Pete” on Hannah Brown’s season of The Bachelorette.)

We then pan, hilariously, to a windmill, which is a not-so-subtle nod to the sex confession heard ’round the world on Brown’s season. (She told viewers that she and Weber slept together not once, not twice, but four times on their Fantasy Suite date—a date that took place inside a windmill.) Weber then emerges from the animated windmill, rose in hand, with a smolder in his eyes. His face, thank goodness, seems completely healed from the “freak accident” that happened earlier this year while filming in Costa Rica. (He reportedly tripped and fell on top of two cocktail glasses.)

You have to see this teaser to believe it. Watch on, Bachelor Nation, and be transformed.

Weber’s contestants for his season of The Bachelor were revealed earlier this year, and the lack of size diversity was glaring (though, thankfully, there was some racial diversity).

“It’s still hitting me right now, and I feel so grateful right now just to have this opportunity in front of me,” Weber told People shortly after his Bachelor-ship was announced. “I feel emotional right now. This is crazy. This is life-changing. I have truly, my entire life, looked forward to finding my girl, and that first person that I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with…. I have all the faith in the world that this can work for me, and I know it’s going to.”

Peter Weber’s season of The Bachelor will premiere in January 2020.

10 Stars Who Were So Close to Becoming the Bachelor or Bachelorette


The bait and switch. It happens more often than you think while executives for The Bachelor and Bachelorette are debating the next season’s lead. Choosing the lucky one to hand out roses each season is no easy feat, which is probably why ABC producers have plenty of back-up choices in case something goes awry.

“It’s always a very difficult choice. And people get angry no matter who we choose,” producer Mike Fleiss previously told Entertainment Weekly. “Really, you can’t look for 100 percent approval, you’ve gotta make your best decision in terms of story potential.”

Take this upcoming season, for example. Mike Johnson has been the obvious Bachelor front-runner for weeks now, but producers threw fans for a loop when it was announced Peter Weber, a.k.a Pilot Pete landed the job.

And this isn’t the only upset in recent memory. Plenty of stars from Bachelor Nation have been on the receiving end of that inevitable bait-and-switch in the past—and it’s not pretty. Check out 10 former contestants who were this close to landing the role of Bachelor or Bachelorette.

The Bachelor Runners-Up: Where Are They Now?


Breakups are never easy—but try adding a camera crew, production team, and all of America watching on top. Sounds like a nightmare, am I right?

That was the reality for many of the runners-up from The Bachelor: the hopeful ones who signed up to appear on a dating competition show but left broken-hearted in a limo sans Neil Lane engagement ring.

Some of the women who came in second place have moved on with their lives and started their own families. Some took a turn at handing out the roses themselves as The Bachelorette, and quite a few decided to take a step back and remove themselves from the limelight altogether.

Whatever they’ve chosen to do, we’ve done some digging on all of them—yes, every single runner-up from all 23 seasons of The Bachelor—and got to the bottom of what everyone is up to today.

(Not photographed: Tara Huckeby, who didn’t exactly have the easiest breakup with Bachelor Jesse Palmer in season five. The general contractor from Oklahoma immediately called him out for “leading her on” after learning that she wasn’t the chosen one. Since the show, she’s kept a low profile and has stayed out of the spotlight.)
