Tampa: land of reality TV single gals
If you watch much reality TV, you’ll notice there sure seems to be a high concentration of contestants from Tampa. I don’t watch that much reality TV at all, actually, and I have still noticed this trend.
What is it about the Bay Area that compels people to audition for shows that will inevitably be edited to make them out to look far worse than they could ever actually be in real life?
One of today’s local headlines says that Tampa girl Erin Gardner will be one of the ladies on the next season of The Bachelor. Will she be the one edited to look petty and jealous? Or, perhaps the one edited to look slutty and loud? Maybe even the one edited to look vindictive and perpetually drunk? Let’s hope that for the sake of Tampa, she just looks sweet and fun-loving.
I can’t say I have high hopes that she will be the one portrayed as intelligent and classy, as apparently in the first episode she tells the Bachelor about a “freak sports injury” in which “she broke her face.”
Tampa has a particularly strong history of ladies who appear on The Bachelor. Last season, Tampa’s Jeanette Alvarez was a contestant on season 10th edition, but didn’t make it past the first episode.
Tampa’s Mary Delgado, who was on the 2003-2004 season of the series and ended up winning.
