As this season of “Bachelor in Paradise” comes to a close, the “BIP” cast members revealed their votes for which Bachelor Nation staple they most want to see as the next Bachelor and Bachelorette and the votes are in.
Rodney was clearly chosen for the next Bachelor, with votes cast from Genevieve, Jacob, Serene, Brandon, Jessania, Elijah, Jill, Brittany, Sierra, and Kate, to name a few.
“Rodney honestly deserves this, after what he’s gone through,” Jacobs told TheWrap. “He is very deserving of love.” “I think everyone is on the same page,” Jill said.
Despite widespread support, Rodney hasn’t decided whether he’s up for the job if the opportunity presents itself.
“that [decision] would be a tough one,” Rodney told TheWrap, adding that all of his friends would take the gig if offered. “I would be grateful for the opportunity… It’s going to be a fun season, I sure know. Is. I bring a lot of energy and a different charisma to the room… [and] I’m so grateful that my cast mates see it and they know how much I love it… who knows?
Other honorable mentions for the Bachelor include Aaron, Logan, and Johnny, all of whom didn’t get the story they were looking for on the beach.
“I think that [Aaron has] There has never been anything except itself; Logan told TheWrap, which Jacobs echoed, saying that Aaron would be a “weird Bachelor.” Logan said, “You could say the same thing for Johnny.”
Johnny also raised a vote for himself, saying, “I think this is going to be a great season; We’ll have some fun.
Jacob said, “There are a lot of people out there that could be this.” “Even though sometimes Logan’s rap sucks, I love Logan, he’s one of the best people I’ve ever met.”
Joe Amabile also threw out a wildcard by suggesting Tyler Cameron, a choice Serena Pitt said would make Bachelor Nation mad.
For The Bachelorette, the votes were a bit more spread out, with the likes ranging from Jill to Shanae.
“I would love to see Shanae being the Bachelorette,” Sierra told TheWrap. “She’ll be able to put on a really good, entertaining season.”
“Shane kinda played the bachelor himself this year,” Serena said. “She dated a lot of dudes this season, so it took a little practice.”
“All the men on that season have to be so headstrong,” Sierra said. “It’s just going to be a different dynamic of men. I don’t think anyone’s ever seen a woman with such a strong mind and they really don’t have to give that authority … It will bring something new to the table.”
Serene’s vote was with Jill, who Serene says is “such a nice, relatable person.” “Jill is someone who is inside all of us that we are not honorable enough to show and I love that about her,” he said.
Although Jill was not so sold, saying “They would have to pay me a lot of money … I don’t know if I’d do it again.”
Britney also picks up on her crush on Natasha, whom she says “deserves love… [and] The opportunity to chase after so many men,” while Danielle looks to Florence, who she says is “level-headed” and “quick-witted.”
As the other Bachelor Nation staples cast their votes, Jacob voted for Sierra, who was sold on Genevieve and Johnny put his money on Lace for the Bachelorette, saying that he wanted to see her happy.
