For me , Joey ’s preceding trick paint a image of someone who might be more concerned in fame than constantly love , and I think manufacturer should take this kind of affair more seriously to uphold the integrity of the show and for the safety of all player . It ’s always somewhat surprising to line up out that a proportional unknown region who find fame on a reality show , specifically a go steady reality show , auditioned for other show previously . It calls into question the somebody ’s motives , and whether they ’re actually concerned in find oneself love or whether they ’re looking for their 15 mo of fame .

But if a campaigner has made the rounds on other realness show , it confuse the assembly line between looking for a echt connection ( albeit , one that ’s being filmed and produce , then propagate to the entire world ) and count for clout .

While there ’s no explicit mention ofThe Bachelor , and we ca n’t be sure this was ever submitted to the show ’s producers , Joey ’s involution speaks volume .

Comments on the video recording are mostly from a few years back , but since Joey ’s become more gamy - profile afterLove is Blind , there are more recent remarks that call his motives into question .

While Love Is Blind season 9 will likely be airing later this year , I think the series needs to take some time before it aerate its next time of year . With the show ’s succeeder rate being low than ever , Love Is Blind needs to recalibrate before it can move forward with the experimentation . Despite there being a bit of success , the series want to make some changes to its roll method before it goes back into output and airs newfangled episodes .

Producers Should Be Cautious Of Multiple Auditions

It Should Be An Automatic Red Flag

An appearance on a realism show can do good participants in many means . It can be quite remunerative , and lead to other reality show appearances or gigs . It ’s no wonder why the approximation of give way on a dating realism show can seem very enticing , soproducers need to be extra diligentin the casting summons to weed out those with impure intentions .

If I were a producer on a romance - based realness show , and I found out that an applicant had previously applied for the same show or other shows in a similar vein , I’d think twice about casting them . It ’s hard to take someone in earnest when they ricochet from show to show . Other applicants are position their faith in production to fully vet those who put on , and make certain that they are going on the show for the correct reasons .

A account of trying to get on tv set should right away disqualify an applier if the show ’s premise is finding love .

It speak to other intention , and that should n’t be involve lightly when the stakes are this high . If I were swan my ideal show , I ’d be looking for candidates who did n’t even have a Netflix account or a social media comportment . I ’d want someone literal , unproblematic , and , as always , onLove Is Blindfor the right reasons .
