‘Bachelorette’ Rachel Lindsay ‘rude’ at ‘Men Tell All’: ‘Stardom has gone to her head’
By Ruby Maxwell
Rachel Lindsay faces the guys she rejected on Monday night’s Men Tell All. Not all of them have nice things to say about the Bachelorette star.
Rachel Lindsay was reunited with most of the guys from her season when the Bachelorette Men Tell All special was taped last week. Her final three guys did not appear on the show for obvious reasons. But the men who did come face-to-face with Rachel had plenty to say about her — not all of it is positive.
What happened during the Men Tell All to prompt some of the guys to throw shade at Rachel? Here’s a peek at what fans will see when the show airs on July 31, as well as comments about the Bachelorette star from a few of Rachel’s guys.
At least four men were in the hot seat during the MTA taping — Dean, Lee, Kenny, and Adam. Some of the preview images also show Josiah Graham sitting with Rachel on stage. We assume DeMario Jackson was in the hot seat as well, but don’t expect him to talk about Bachelor in Paradise. That won’t happen until the Paradise reunion show in September.
According to Reality Steve, the Lee vs Kenny topic takes up quite a bit of time. However, there are reports that Kenny states that he doesn’t think Lee is racist, even after Chris Harrison talks about the nasty, racist tweets Lee posted before the show.
Oh, and Kenny’s daughter gets a chance to shine during the Men Tell All. So cute.
But not everything comes up roses when the guys start dishing about Rachel after taping is done. And they didn’t hold back while the show was taping, either.
According to
, a source who attended the
Bachelorette Men Tell All
taping says viewers may feel differently about Rachel after the watch the show on Monday night.

She apparently came across as “insensitive and dismissive.” The audience — and the guys — weren’t too pleased. Some of the guys reportedly “put Rachel in her place” while the show was taping, claiming she “wasn’t sincere.”
Of course, some of their comments may be cut when producers edit the show.
So, it’s totally possible we’ll only see the guys gushing over Rachel.
However, here’s what sources say transpired during the show, including Rachel’s interaction with DeMario Jackson.
We’ll find out soon enough if this is true, but the source who attended the taping states Rachel “pretended to not even remember DeMario.”
"The bachelors mumbled that she was acting like a “cold, rude b-tch,” according to the source. And even DeMario fired back at Rachel by allegedly calling her “ratchet.”"
Rachel is also said to have been very “cold” to Fred, the guy who has had the hots for the Bachelorette since their grade school days. He reportedly spoke from the heart but Rachel didn’t seem to care.
"“Rachel didn’t care when Fred poured his heart out to her and said she had treated him badly on the show, the source noted, adding that the guys didn’t like seeing that side of her at all.”"
Again, it’s hearsay, so we’ll see what happens Monday night.
Did fame go to Rachel’s head?
“Stardom has definitely gone to Rachel’s head,” Reality TV World reports the source as saying.
“She’s changed, not for good. ABC will have to do some major editing if they want her to appear likable.”
Rachel has been one of the most down-to-earth Bachelorette stars, so it’s difficult to believe she was anything but kind to the guys during the Men Tell All taping.
However, there’s word that she may be moving from Dallas to Los Angeles.
Is this a sign that she may want to stay in the entertainment world?
Life & Style‘s insider reports that Rachel told her final three guys she plans to move to Los Angeles. She reportedly had this conversation during the overnight dates and asked the guys if they would relocate to L.A. if she moved.
Of course, cameras aren’t rolling inside the Fantasy Suite, so this could just be another rumor. Or one of her guys is leaking like he works in the White House.
