Brad Womack summed it up quite succinctly when he said, "It's almost like I'm watching the girls become very competitive," at this week's group date on 'The Bachelor' (Mon, 8PM ET on ABC).
We're not sure what they expected to happen by having the date be themed around a 'Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition' photo shoot. Does no one realize what happens when those models pose for the magazine? Half the time, tops come off.
In this case, two of the three girls lost their tops, which left Michelle scrambling to find a different way to show them up in front of Brad and make sure she left a lasting impression. After all, they'd each left two very strong impressions.
Michelle went for leaving an impression in the sand by suggesting she do a photo shoot mounted on top of Brad on the beach. Plastering her body against his, she made it as passionate as she could, while the other two girls stood by uncomfortably.
When it comes to competitive girls, you have to wonder how much of Michelle's actions was based on genuine interest in Brad, and how much of it was in generating a response out of the other two girls. See, 'The Bachelor' does show how messy and complicated love can be.
