In Spain for the Fame

Barcelona, once home to the 1992 Summer Games, now home of the D-Bag Olympics. Please congratulate Gold Medal Winner Wes for being the biggest douche on the planet. I'm sorry it took me so long to post my blog, but I was ordering a Massengill t-shirt on the internet for Wes. I was also looking for a trophy to send Laurel to congratulate her on spending six years with biggest ass I know.

It's hard for me to even talk about anything else, but I feel like I owe the other guys at least a paragraph or two, before going over Wes and Jillian's "date".

Jillian's first date was actually with Kiptyn in Madrid, Spain. Jillian needed Kiptyn to open up and show her that he cared, but instead, Kiptyn opened up by letting her know that he thinks that a proposal is "far off". He doesn't think that it is realistic to expect a proposal this soon.

Pointers for Kiptyn...Don't start by telling the girl that there is no hope for a proposal. If you don't think it's realistic to get engaged in such a short amount of time, I think that is fine, I think most people would agree with you, but you probably don't need to tell her that just yet. Wait until it's down to the final two. Then take a look at the free diamond rings and then ask yourself, "Do I want to keep dating this girl for another year and pay for the ring out of my pocket or take one of these rocks for free?" You can always have a long engagement...and let's face it, no one's ever going to top your TV proposal story. You may even get the wedding paid for! I'm not really that shallow, but then again, I would never go on a show like this anyway, but if I did publically embarrass myself, you can bet I'd get me a Tacori diamond out of it!

Pointer number two...Don't wear the tight pants and go Flamenco dancing if A...you suck...and B...you don't have a nice package...because neither the pants or the dancing are going to win you any bonus points. "Don't hurt the boys" as Jillian put it.

Pointer number three...Don't wreck your scooter with your date on the back, even with your protective head gear.

Pointer number four...Don't eat snails on your date. Slugs and romance don't really go together.

Their date was a little strange, but I did like one of the questions she asked him, "If I asked three of your ex-girlfriends one thing that they would have changed about you, what would that be?" Kiptyn's answer...They'd want me to have a twin brother...smooth! Jillian asked if he was too much of a "softy"...like any guy is going to admit that. She also said something along the lines of...you remind me of my dad...and my mom wears the pants in the family and I don't want someone who lets me walk all over them. It was kind of a mild insult in my opinion. Why would a guy want to be with a girl who thinks he's a pansy? He tried to pretend like he was disappointed that she didn't want to spend the night in the fantasy suite, but I honestly didn't see too much passion between them. Maybe he should have taken off his shirt. The abs alone would have been enough for me to forgo my separate room.

When she met up with Reid in Sevilla, Spain she had an instant "perma-grin". She said she was crazy about him, but needed to know more. I think they are really cute together, walking through the market, trying to find something to eat for their picnic. You know it's love when a guy makes you want to "pee" yourself, not because he got you so drunk you couldn't hold it, but because he made you laugh so hard. While enjoying their picnic in the park, Reid let Jillian know how much his family loved her and how worried he was about the other hometown dates. I think his actions definitely told her that he was falling for her, but Jillian was trying really hard to light a fire under his butt to hurry him down the "I love you" tunnel. I think the best she got was, "You smell good"...what all women want to hear. I'm kind of shocked that the guys don't seem to know about the fantasy suite card. Do they really not know? Have they never watched the show? Or are they just faking it, so they seem like gentleman. The one thing that is for sure is that their faces all drop when she says that she doesn't want to use it, because she's not ready yet. Instead, Reid gives her a piggy back ride and tells the camera crew in Spanish, "she has my heart". Now why couldn't you just say that to her?!

Starting over with Ed in Sevilla, Spain was pretty hard. He already broke her heart a little bit, so not only did he have to catch up to the other guys, he also had to fix the damage he'd already done. I actually think they kind of look alike and would be perfect together. Ed admitted that he's not the kind of guy who would push all the other guys out of the way to get her, but when he went back home for two weeks, he could not get her out of his head and he knew that he needed to find a way to come back and try to do whatever it would take to win his way back into her heart. I think he did a really good job of "putting it all out there". I think that he felt like he had to, but I also think that he was sincere. He kind of said everything that every girl wants to hear...I mean who doesn't like to have someone say, "I could not get you off my mind" ? She grilled him a little bit about what their hometown date would have been like, but more than anything, she just wanted to make out with him. In the restaurant, on the sidewalk, on the stairs, in the fountain...it was a makeout montage! Everyone needs a montage right?! I don't know if she learned anything more about him that afternoon, but she now knows how he tastes!

Their evening together was very special. He was the only one who really talked in depth about their future together...even kids! "Who wouldn't want another me?" he said jokingly. They even seem to be on the same timeline. They always say that relationships are all about timing. I think Ed and Jillian would be good together and I think Jillian knows it, which is why she kind of caved on the fantasy suite card. I think she knew that she needed the extra time with Ed and I think she wanted to make out with him a little more. Ed definitely worked the sympathy card. He made it clear that he is a commitment person and if she gave him a shot, she would see that he was worth it. He totally won me over though, when he said, "You're my favorite part of Spain". My heart melted a little. I like that Ed guy. They may have agreed to sleep in their clothes...but I'm pretty sure there was some dry humping going on that night.

Now that we have covered the three Amigos, let's move on to "numero uno" Wes, more like a pile of numero deuce.

He's fired up to be in Barcelona, Spain because he "feels at home living around Spanish people"...somehow I doubt they feel the same. He couldn't help himself, he had to give his music another plug, by letting everyone know...again...that he had a number one record in Chihuahua, Mexico....which is just like Barcelona, Spain...in Wes' world. You could hear my eyes rolling when he started talking.

Wes' date with Jillian began with a series of mild insults and self-absorbed comments....

Jillian says, "I missed you!"

Wes says, "Yeah whatever, you say that to all the boys."

Jillian says, "I thought we could go on a bike ride."

Wes says, "I hope your bike riding skills are better than your cross country skiing."

Jillian says, "You look cute on a bike."

Wes says, "Yeah I know. Tell me how sexy I look baby...feed my ego."

All the while, he never complimented her in any way, shape or form. It's no wonder that Jillian was worried about Wes' lack of affection. He tried to tell her that he missed not getting to hang out with her a lot and that he thought she was perfect, but he sat so far away from her, I doubt she could even hear him.

I wished we had all missed his theory on relationships... "Relationships are all about bending. Nothing's going to break if it can bend." Apparently he only expects one person to bend and that's the person he's in the relationship with. He makes it pretty clear to Jillian that he has no intention of leaving Austin. When she tries to push farther he makes it blatantly obvious that he has checked out of the conversation when he answers her question by saying, "That bird has no foot...God what's wrong with me?" and spills his drink on himself. Jillian goes from trying to light a fire under Reid's ass to having to wipe up the mess under Wes'. Jillian decides to save the rest of her questions for later and take time to reflect and ask herself why Wes is always having to defend himself...Answer... because he's always guilty!

Wes shows up for dinner in his best Western shirt, which seems to be all the man owns. The "gentleman" pulls out the chair for her and their date starts something like this...

WES - Today was a blast! I would like to clear the table...I mean clear the air...whatever.

JILLIAN - You are that bad boy that I'm always attracted to. There have been a lot of red flags and I have to bring it up again even though I know you don't like talking about it. I have to know everything so I can defend myself.

WES - I honestly haven't told any of those guys that I have a girlfriend.

JILLIAN - You didn't even kiss me all day.

WES - When you tell me I'm the one then I'll show you. I mean I'm not here to hurt you, but I'm going to be true to myself, because "numero uno" is most important here.

JILLIAN - I think that this person Laurel is very important to you and I want to know why.

WES - I spent six years with that person and she's one of my best friends.

JILLIAN - What broke you up?

WES - Our differences broke us up.

JILLIAN - What did you tell Jake?

WES - My girlfriend... I mean ex-girlfriend....

And there it was...you could see it on Jillian's face, she knew he was hiding something. He didn't even finish. The craziest part is that when the date card arrived, Wes actually read it out loud...looked at Jillian...and said, "I think we should...actually?" Even Jillian had to be thinking...Seriously? You haven't even kissed me all day and you think I want to go back to the fantasy suite and hook up with you now? She told him she thought they should "skip it". FINAL ANSWER! Thank God!

It really wasn't a dramatic rose ceremony. All the guys were looking sharp in their suits...all but Wes, who stood there in his jeans and his blazer talking about how it was going to be for him going home and letting them know that he'd be having lots of sex! What a jerk! The guys looked visibly uncomfortable with his comment. He looked like an ass, he acted like an ass, and she should have hit him in the ass with the limo door on his way out. She picked Ed, then Reid, then Kiptyn. It was more exciting for Wes to say goodbye to the guys. He waved all sweetly as he drove away, then grabbed a beer to congratulate himself for "being the first guy to make it to the top four with a girlfriend". And sat there with that stupid grin on his face, joking about how long it would take him to get back on his feet after being shot down...as if to say...not long! Then he rambled on making himself look like an even bigger jerk..."My acting days are over...I have done everything I needed to do. I'm going back home...got my dog waiting and my band. We're pushing a new single right now. I've got a radio tour I've got to do ASAP. And tonight I'm going out! I'm cutting off the chains. How did I lose to Reid? You gotta be kidding me...those three boys wouldn't even get so much as a nibble back in Texas. It's on like a pot of neck bones. I'm in Spain...everybody's gonna know my name!" I actually threw up a little. The limo driver should have jumped out and let him ride off a cliff.

Jillian walked back to the final three to let them know that she knew she needed to do that...HELL you needed to do that a long damn time ago!

Now they are off to the Hawaii...will they finally see the inside of the fantasy suite? Will Jillian give them a nibble after all? One thing is for sure...Wes ain't coming back and no one gives a crap what his name is!

cheers from Canada...the Canadian blogs were going nuts last night about Wes and his words.

So with you being in Austin (I am hoping)...how is the local press handling this...from "local boy does good"...to "local boy treats women like this?"

Are reporters heading out to find Laurel to see if she is going to stick to her story...we are just freinds?

Are reporters heading out to Wes's family who all appear to be IN on it?

I wonder if Jillian dropped Laurel's name with anyone in private or off camera?

Will the local press be monitoring Wes's concert tour which resumes July 10...ticket refunds or ticket sales?

Wes's myspace has 6400 friends...does that go up or down? what do the famous country music "friends" think? Do people like George Jones even know?

keep us posted...one sad Canadian

I haven't heard too much about it in the press, but I did hear that he was interviewed this morning on a local morning show and he tried to make it sound like they put words in his mouth by editing clips out of context.

Please let us treat ladies like gentlemen should. I am hoping that Wes is not a native, as this is not the way we were raised down here. Jake has shown us that a Texan is really chivalrous. Thank you!

What an embarrassment to Austin. Wes makes me want to move back to Idaho and be a pig farmer again. Pigs are nothing compared to this guy.

Better yet, I'm going to let Ms Humphries tell us when and where this guy's having a concert and I'll go down and give him a little something, you know, for the effort. And also let him know how a real man should treat a woman.

Keep up the great work Ms Humphries.

After reading Wes's Facebook page, and listening to the KVET interview, I've decided ratings-hungry producers realized pretty early on that they had a real snoozer of a season going, and they needed someone to stir things up, create controversy. Wes is the perfect pick for the "bad boy", and they did a great job creating this character. I think we've all been had by the show's producers!
