Ed From The Bachelorette Works at Which Tech Company?

GeekSugar — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 09:05:00 -0700

Now that The Bachelorette's Jillian Harris has picked her prince, we can't help but ask - who is Ed Swiderski?!

Aside from knowing he's from Chicago, we also know that he is seriously committed to his job. The guy walked away from the show halfway through after receiving pressure from his boss. Upon his return (and especially now since he'll be walking down the aisle with Jillian) I had to find out if he was: a. still employed and b. what this big important job was.

Well I've got the answers, and it turns out the cute Chicagoan works for a well known tech company. Can you guess which one it is?

Do You Live Blog on Twitter?

Monday night was the last episode of The Bachelorette and I was invited to a finale party. Not at someone's apartment, you see - it was a Twitter party! A few gals and I twittered our thoughts about the episode as it unfolded, and although some people were peeved at the amount of updates we posted in the two-hour window (I know, I know - two whole hours), I have to say it was pretty fun for us.

Twitter is a form of blogging ("micro-blogging" if you will), so you could technically say that we live blogged the event. This thought caused me to wonder: do you ever live blog on Twitter?

Michael was injected with the drug the night before he died, Jillian has her pick of three potential fiances, and Jessica Simpson says the wrong thing again.

Have You Ever Been in Love With More Than One Person?

TresSugar — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 13:00:00 -0700

In case you missed it, last night was the finale of The Bachelorette. Spunky Canadian Jillian Harris's quest to find love on a reality show came to an end as she had to choose between Kiptyn, Ed, and Reid. The episode was filled with tears and sighs from Jillian, who had fallen for all three of the guys! In the end she chose Ed and seemed pretty happy.

Anyone who goes on The Bachelorette to choose a soul mate among 30 eligible men runs the risk of falling in love with more than one of them (or none of them). But this could also happen to someone sans TV cameras and exotic dates. Have you ever been in love with more than one person at the same time?

Bachelorette Fans: Should Jillian Choose Ed or Kiptyn?

BuzzSugar — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 12:30:41 -0700

Another season of The Bachelorette, another love connection - or at least we (and ABC) hope! Tonight finds Jillian choosing between her two remaining suitors: Kiptyn, whom Jillian called big-hearted and adventurous, and Ed, who's passionate but potentially unreliable. Which guy will she pick? Or will she cut them both loose? What would you like to see her do?

10 Things I Learned From Watching the Bachelorette

TresSugar — Tue, 19 May 2009 11:30:00 -0700

Having seen The Bachelor more seasons than I care to admit, I will say that having a bevy of women vying for your attention looks more fun for the man than 25 30 men vying for a woman's attention. (Here are the guys.) Watching Jillian walk into a room full of boozed-up bachelors wanting to talk to her made me uncomfortable for her. No wonder she was sucking down those Chardonnays.
It's hard to break-dance in a white, form-fitting, charmeuse gown.
Some men really, really identify with their jobs. (Pilot dude, I'm talking to you.)
Being sincere and yourself (Kiptyn, Ed) is so much more attractive than acting a part (Juan, Kyle.)
Sadly, sometimes being sincere isn't enough (sorry, Adam).

To find out what else I learned, read more.

It's true - funny often trumps hunky. (Break-dancer guy over square-jawed, humorless bohunks.)
Having a man you don't know sing you a love song he wrote for you is . . . weird not romantic.
I now know that if a man asks you to take your shoes off within moments of meeting you and can't make eye contact with you, but also isn't looking at your chest but rather stealing furtive glances down to your feet, he probably has a foot fetish.
Men have some odd names these days. (Mathue. Kiptyn. Two Tanners - Tanner P. and Tanner F.? Really?)
There's not enough money in the world you could give me to be on a reality-dating show.

Bachelor Fans: Do You Want Jillian to Be The Bachelorette?

BuzzSugar — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 16:30:40 -0800

Did you catch this week's The Bachelor: Women Tell All special? As usual, it was full of filler, including a roundup of all the former contestants who are now together - including several castoffs who started dating after their seasons ended.

Anyway, it took forever, but eventually Jillian, the most recent girl dumped by dad-from-Seattle Jason, took the stage. Host Chris Harrison asked the audience if they would want the Canadian to be the next bachelorette, and the crowd went wild.

What do you think? Would you want to watch Jillian's quest for love?
