ASHLEY’S FAMILY MEETS JP
Ashley’s family joins her in Fiji to meet the last two men standing. Ash tells them that she has a “burning passion”  with J.P. Not sure that was a good move to tell ma and pa.

J.P. arrives first to meet Ash’s family at the Vomo Island Resort and Spa. He made a great first impression on most of them, which we all knew he would. But Ashley’s sister, Chrystie, whose opinion she has always valued, told Ash that she does not see this man as the one for her because Ash is too much for this demure man. Ash tells her sister she is being a bitch.


Meanwhile, Chrystie gives J.P. a lot of issues she finds troubling about any future relationship between him and her sister. She calls him out for being 34 and single. But she seems to like Brad Womack who is 38 and single and tells her sister she had more chemistry with Brad than with JP.

ASHLEY’S FAMILY MEETS BEN
Ben is next up to meet the fam and seems to be faring better with Chrystie and the whole family who just gushes over him. The go so gaga over him that he just stated he’d be engaged to her the next time they all meet.

FINAL DATE WITH BEN
Ashley and Ben take a helicopter over the beautiful Fiji Islands, landing near some natural hot springs. The two share a steamy romantic date. Ben tells Ash that his walls are coming down and finally tells her he loves her and got her father’s permission to marry her. OH OH, JP is falling behind…. 


FINAL DATE WITH JP
The next day, Ashley and J.P. go on their date and poor JP is still a mess after meeting Ash’s sister. He begs Ashley not to let her sister’s opinion influence her decision and does everything he can to defend himself, including finally admitting that he’s falling madly in love with her.

HERE WE GO!!

Kings Of Leon Cancel All Remaining U.S. Tour Dates

Kings of Leon are cancelling the rest of their U.S. tour because vocalist Caleb Followill is suffering from vocal problems and exhaustion.

Promoter Live Nation announced the cancellation in press release Monday, three days after Followill left the stage in Dallas, Texas.

“We are sorry to say that Kings of Leon are canceling their entire US tour due to Caleb Followill suffering from vocal issues and exhaustion.”

Followill had walked off the stage mid-show in Dallas, saying he was “going to go backstage for a second, going to vomit, going to drink a beer, and going to come back out and play three more songs.” Yet he never returned. Followill’s brothers and band mates, Nathan and Jared, and cousin Matthew vowed on Twitter to replay the show. Jared also admitted the band has “internal sicknesses & problems” that go beyond dehydration. Then came news of this cancellation.

“The band is devastated, but in order to give their fans the shows they deserve, they need to take this break. Unfortunately, the U.S. dates cannot be rescheduled due to international tour dates on the band’s schedule.”

Purchased tickets will be refunded, and the band will resume touring in Canada on September 28.

RECAP: Bachelorette ‘Men Tell All’ Didn’t Tell Us What We Wanted To Hear

The Bachelorette, The Men Tell All, aired Sunday July 31, 2011. Ashley HebertChris Harrison, and the castoff bachelors revisited some of the most memorable moments of the season.


From masked man Jeff to bad boy Bentley Williams, this promised to be an unpredictable reunion. We all wanted to hear Bentley explain why he went on the show and why he played with Ash’s heart. But Bentley rained on our parade and was a no show, leaving this get together one of the tamest and possibly lamest in recent memory.


Here are some highlights:

WHY ASHLEY SLEEPS WITH A JAR OF VASELINE BY HER BEDSIDE
Ashley answered viewers’ question on why there was a jar of Vaseline next to her bed when she was crying over Bentley. She said she uses Vaseline as chapstick. ZZZZZZZZZZ…more much ado about nothing like the rest of this season..
RYAN P. IRKS THE MEN
Ryan admitted to being over excited on the show – especially when he got nervous. Ashley said her goodbye with Ryan (the first one around) was her hardest goodbye, especially when he asked her, “You don’t want to meet my family?”
Ryan went from being too happy on the show to having an emotional breakdown when Ashley sent him home. Blake called Ryan out on his breakdown and said, “Call me skeptical, or playing devil’s advocate, but my problem is you and I had roughly the same amount of time with her, and maybe your conversations had a lot more depth than mine, but to walk away and be so completely devastated when she said ‘no, thank you,’ I find it surprising.” Blake continued and told Ryan that after being dumped, he kept saying he wanted ‘love,’ but never said he wanted ‘Ashley,’ and felt the two were interchangeable for him. Ryan said he bought several relationship books before coming on the show and made pages of notes on what to ask a potential mate, so, his time with her was very real. “I came prepared.”
JEFF THE MASKED “IDIOT”
Jeff said that he wanted to wear the mask the first night only. Then he thought it would be funny to wear it during the rose ceremony. Chris D called Jeff an idiot for wearing a mask on the show. Tim said masks freak him out and it’s creepy. Good one Tim, but you know what else freaks me out? Men passing out drunk on their first date!

WILLIAM GOES FROM FRONT RUNNER TO SECOND MOST HATED
William, who went from having the best first date ever and almost marrying Ashley to roasting her to tears at the comedy club, said he was only able to stomach watching the first episode when it aired on TV. He could not even watch the high lowlights shown on Men Tell All. He even covered his ears during the recaps. He said he can’t watch or listen to the sound of his voice on TV. He said he made an ass out of himself on TV and can’t change what happened; he can only change himself moving forward.
Nick asked William who he wanted to be The Bachelorette, Chantal or Emily, and William said, “I was happy with Ashley.” Nick followed with, “Why are we all here?  William said, “Cause none of use can find a girl to date, cause all of us are single.” 
MR. POPULARITY, AMES
The women in the studio audience went nuts for Ames and he told Chris Harrison that he is surprised with all the attention he’s gotten since the show. He said, “Ashley said a bunch of times that I was unique and different, and I thought maybe that was a gentle way of saying, ‘this isn’t working,’ but I just hope that whatever is unique and different about me, appeals to someone.” 
Ames said his relationship with Ashley felt natural and real, and he didn’t pay attention to her relationship with other men, so, he did not realize he was behind other guys.  But don’t feel so bad about Ames, he will be appearing on Bachelor Pad 2 for another chance at love. As a parting gift, Chris gave Ames his pink Thai boxing gloves! 
BENTLEY IS A NO SHOW
Bentley was invited to the show but he declined to attend. BOOHOO BENTLEY, BOOHOO!!
Nick called Bentley’s game plan “crappy.” Blake took it where he should have and said what Bentley did to Ashley is a “terrible display of humanity.” He called him a coward, narcissist, and a liar. Mickey said, “Karma is a bitch, my friend!”
Michelle Money, who had warned Ashley before the season started about Bentley was on the show Sunday. She said it’s hard to know when things are true or not but her information from Bentley’s ex-wife was valid and hurtful enough, so, she decided to tell Ash. Michelle told Ash that he was there as a game and wanted to stay there just a week. Michelle said “we all want what we can’t have” and wondered if she had NOT warned Ash, maybe she would not have been drawn so hard to Bentley.

ASHLEY FACES HER REJECTS
Ashley, dressed in a killer sexy black dress, came on stage and said the men looked good!
She said the hardest part of this process for her is how everyone has reacted to how things went down with Bentley. She fought back tears while admitting that she felt like a fool for being played on national TV and being called ‘an ugly duckling.’ She said people have been really hard on her. Ash continued, “The hardest part is seeing how much time I wasted. If I could go back, I would change that. Wasting so much time is my biggest regret.” She asked the men for forgiveness for that part. Blake said it wasn’t so much Bentley, but he was bothered by anyone coming back for a second chance and the fact that she fell so hard for someone so fast. 

DEANNA PAPPAS, ALI FEDOTOWSKY AND JASON MESNICK SHOW ASH SUPPORT
Ali said this season was hard for her to watch because she related to Ashley in that she felt like a normal girl and wondered like Ash did if the men wanted her. Ali said the process is worth it if one can find that one guy like she has. DeAnna said the second Ash kicked out Bentley, she stood up and raised her arms and jumped up and down in joy.

ASHLEY IS HAPPY!
In case you are wondering, Ash is happy! She confirmed: “I am very very happy and I hope everyone can hold out a bit longer and can share in my enjoyment.” Well, we actually do not have to wait much longer. The season finale of The Bachelorette airs Monday night, August 1 on ABC.
