WATCH THE TRAILER:
Ashley Hebert is down to four men to chose from on The Bachelorette hometown dates episode airing Monday July 18, 2011. Here is a recap of the show:
BACK IN THE USA
Ashley, Constantine, Ben F. and Ames return from their exotic tour of the Far East for four hometown visits across America.
HOMETOWN VISIT WITH CONSTANTINE
Ashley said things started to click for her and Constantine in Taiwan and after all four hometown dates, she told Chris Harrison that this was “the best hometown date.” She flew out to Atlanta to visit Constantine and found a whole new open side to him who has been slow to fall for Ashley so far. He took her to his Italian restaurant for a fun, flirtatious pizza-making lesson. Ashley is impressed by all the love the staff show their boss and feels that he is “such a stud.”
She then met his large Greek family and spent the night dancing. Ashley could feel the love in this family unit and in turn, Constantine’s family thought that Ashley and him looked cute and happy together. Constantine’s mom took Ashley aside and asked her if she would move for love and Ashley said yes–guess she’s come a long way because if I recall correctly, she said she wouldn’t move for Brad Womack when she was on The Bachelor.
Constantine’s father told him he has his blessing but gave him the advice to follow the example of him and his mother and work on the relationship through ups and downs but said in the beginning, things should be perfect. At the end of the night, Ashley had fallen in love with Constantine’s family and said she could envision a life with him. Ashley had also won over Constantine’s parents and Constantine said he could see her as part of his family.
HOMETOWN VISIT WITH AMES
Ames lives in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania and introduced Ashley to his fun-loving family. Ames’ sister saw a spark in Ames’ eyes that she had never seen before but worried that she could not see the same spark in Ashley’s. So, she took Ash aside to make sure her heart is in the right place. She asked her straight out how she feels about Ames. Ash said their relationship has progressed slower than with other men but she likes the qualities she sees in him so she has kept him around over other men with whom she had more of a connection.
Ames’ sister told Ash that Ames lost his father and stepfather at an early age which explains his hesitation to trust. The sister voiced her concerns to Ames that she’s not sure Ash sees Ames as her fiance at this time and suggested to Ames that he kick the romance and passion into high gear so he won’t lose Ashley to the other men. So, Ames decided to show Ashley the most beautiful part of where he lives and whisked her away for a romantic picnic underneath his favorite Magnolia tree followed by a spectacular horse and carriage ride through the picturesque Pennsylvania landscape.
Ames told her his mom loved her. They discussed his boarding school attendance, and Ames admitted he is nerdy. Ash said the two of them have a lot of similarities in common and look at life the same way. After the date, Ames said he has fallen in love with her…Ash felt that they had a real connection and that this could be a storybook romance that she would tell her children about forever.
HOMETOWN VISIT WITH BEN F.
Sonoma, California is the site for Ashley’s date with Ben F. Ben planned a picnic for Ashley at his winery. The two spent time tasting his various wines and discussing intimate details of the mourning he and his family went through when his dad passed away. He told her that this journey has helped him tear down the emotional walls he put up around himself as a result of his father’s death and that he is no longer scared to share his emotions.
Ashley met Ben’s sister and mother but felt a lot of pressure when she heard she was the second woman Ben has ever taken home to meet his family. Ben has a protective sister and she said she has not liked many of her brother’s exes. She took Ben aside and asked him if he sees himself proposing and he said yes. This made her happy that he is finally in touch with his emotions.
Ben’s mom showed Ash family pictures and she loved every second of it. Ben had a touching conversation with his mom about Ashley and how he feels about her–that he is falling for her. He spoke of the marriage of his parents and told her he wants to use their relationship as a model. He also admitted to her that he has regrets about how he handled things when his father died and wishes he would have been a better son to her. Ashley said she could see herself spending the rest of her life with him.
HOMETOWN VISIT WITH JP
Roslyn/Long Island, NY is the last date location with J.P. The two go on a date to a roller skating rink before she meets his family. The rink is empty but for the two of them–lights are lowered and the disco ball is in full rotation. The two do nothing but kiss, laugh, and fall–Ash says she feels like she’s in the 7th grade. These two are just comfortable together and look like they’ve been dating for a long time. So cute.
JP told her he is so high when he is with Ash and miserable without her, but still willing to risk getting a broken heart if there is a chance he could end up with her.
Ash meets JP’s family who seem very positive to her. JP ended up with a terrible broken heart after his last relationship and his mom and brother are worried that he may suffer a broken heart again. His mom asked him if he is in love with Ash and he says a lot of signs point that way but he has difficulty admitting it just yet. He also said Ash and him have “something” that she doesn’t have with the other men and is confident he won’t get his heart broken this time around. He said he would propose at the end of all this if he felt it, and that concerned his mom even though she feels that Ash fits well with the family.
Ash told JP’s mom that she has used her gut a lot on this journey but she has also learned that she needs to use her head as well. She told her, “I am smitten with your son,” which made the mom smile from ear to ear. “He has something that is very special to me,” Ash said and JP’s mom loved hearing that. Unlike Ames’ sister, JP’s mom said she saw a spark in Ash’s eyes! SCORE for JP! And the night ended after JP’s mom brought out a young mullet headed pic of JP looking all adorable like he should have been on Saved By The Bell or some other similar show when he was a teen.
ROSE CEREMONY
Before the rose ceremony, Chris Harrison mentioned the name “Bentley Williams” and it hit me that a whole episode had gone by and Ash had not uttered this man’s name once! In fact, when Chris mentioned it, she said, “Who?” Man, our girl has come a long way since those awful, painful weeks of crying over Bentley. She said she was thankful for everything that happened with Bentley because it got her to the point of being left with four fantastic men. Ash looks happy and is excited for her future.
Ben F., Constantine, and JP each got a rose. Ames was sent packing but not before he looked confused as hell when the last rose was given to someone other than him. But don’t worry about Ames, he will be on The Bachelor Pad this August. Never mind, I did feel a little bad when Ames would not stop smiling in front of Ash and kept telling her how beautiful and poetic the whole journey was. He really tried to keep his composure despite his utter shock. Once in the limo, he said he was numb and looked sick to his stomach. Poor guy.
Miley Cyrus announced her new crush via Twitter this weekend — and no, it wasn’t to gush over on-again, off again boyfriend Liam Hemsworth.
We all deal with relationship splits in such different ways. Take the Jennifer Lopez – Marc Anthony divorce. Marc Anthony has been spotted flirting with fans at his concert while Jennifer Lopez is reportedly “devastated.”
At his first public appearance since the couple announced their breakup Friday, Anthony played at a concert a day later in Bogota, Columbia.
Before performing No Hay Nadie Como Ella, which translates in English to ‘None Like Her,’ he flirted with the crowd, “Rumor has it I’m single now. That’s why I want to dedicate the next song to you.”
J.Lo on the other hand is reportedly devastated over the break up. A source tells Us Magazine that J.Lo is “absolutely beside herself. This is someone she dedicated a long time to, and that she truly loved.”
The source also says of the Anthony-Lopez marriage, “They had a very up and down marriage. They would get into heated, horrible fights. Then, they would also go through times where they were extremely lovely and romantic…It was a roller coaster with them from the beginning.”
We all remember the booty shaking that took place on American Idol finale late May when JLo danced while her husband performed. The two looked like two people in love which is why so many are shocked at their breakup less than two months later. Apparently, that was a high moment in their roller coaster relationship.
Lopez “tried everything she could to make it work,” another source told US Magazine. “They went to marriage counseling. She was patient and loving and did everything he wanted her to…She exhausted all the possibilities.”
Despite the split, J.Lo and Anthony will continue to develop their reality competition, ¡Q’viva! Reportedly, the duo will also continue honoring their deal with Kohl’s to create and promote two upcoming apparel and accessories lines, albeit they were always intended to be “two separate distinctive collections,” which could mean the two won’t even have to interact with each other.
Here is a news video clip about the split:
Big Brother 13 episode # 4 aired Sunday, July 17, 2011. Jordan won H.O.H. last week and had to put two houseguests up for eviction nomination tonight.
WHO SWITCHED IN NEWBIE CAMP?
Sunday’s show starts with dumbfounded newbies who were confused and concerned that Keith, not Porsche, was voted out despite their apparent agreement otherwise.
As we remember from Thursday’s episode, Kalia and Shelly went against their newbie alliance and voted against Keith, giving the oldies the votes they needed to accomplish their goal of getting rid of a strong newbie. Dominic and Adam were trying to figure out who lied about their votes. The oldies just assumed Kalia and Adam voted their way.
Kalia told the camera that she voted against Keith because he called her out in front of the newbies as a friend of the oldies alliance.
Shelly said in the diary room that the best thing about voting with the oldies alliance is that none of the newbies or oldies knew she did it.
Adam realized the newbies are not united and feels like he can’t trust anyone. Lawon felt completely blindsided by the betrayal and said in the diary room that he felt “furious like a volcano in Hawaii about to erupt.”
Leave it to Rachel to say it like it is in the diary room: “We were in such a tough spot, but we were still able to pull together house majority. If the newbies band together, they could have evicted Porsche this week and we’d be in a really tough spot. So, I am thanking all my lucky stars that these newbies are idiots.”
Eventually and after much discussion, everyone thought Adam was one of the newbies who turned on the newbies. Based on this wrong assumption, Dominic told Cassi that Adam is dead to him and that he wants to shake things up and possibly get Daniele to their side.
ADAM FESSES UP
Keith’s eviction made Adam realize that he is on a weaker alliance that he can’t trust. So, he went to Jeff and Jordan and admitted he voted to evict Porsche. He told them the alliance he thought he had with the newbies is not there and told Jeff that the oldies know how to play the game better than the newbies do, so, he wants to join their side. You know, for real this time. He also said if he gets the Golden Key, he will owe them a lot. Seriously, can he be trusted at this point when he is so desperate to be on a winning side?
DOMINIC WORKS DANIEL
Dominic starts flirting with Daniele because he says that’s the only way to get through to her. And his strategy is working. Daniele told him she will try to get the oldies to vote Adam out instead of him. She told Jeff and Jordan that Dom could be easily manipulated and they should get rid of Cassi instead.
CASSI AND RACHEL BUTT HEADS
It didn’t take Rachel long to find a new nemesis in the house even though she and Brendon decided to play nice this season. Things went south when Cassi told Rachel she did not like Porsche and Rachel told her “some of us like Porsche and she’s here for another month,” before walking out on her. Rachel says Cassi gets on her nerves and told Jeff and Jordan that Cassi is after them.
HAVE AND HAVE NOT COMPETITION
Houseguests had to suit up as “super” ants –each duo packed into one ant suit–and go to a picnic with giant-sized food. The first group to collect four food crumbs by crawling through slimy ketchup and baked beans would win the competition. Brendon and Rachel won the competition by using the strategy of having Brendon on Rachel’s back–a position she said she usually enjoys. TMI.
When the competition finished, Kalia seemed injured and could not move at all. She was crying in agony and no one knew why. BB medics came to the rescue and cut Lawon out of the suit, leaving Kalia better all of the sudden. She was cleared by the medics and said most of the pain was fear. Shelly said to the camera, “It was drama, save it for your mama…but not this mama.”
AMERICA’S VOTE
America picked beef jerky and jelly beans as the “treat” that the have nots could have for the week. Everyone was upset but Adam who loves beef jerky.
DOMINIC MEETS WITH JEFF AND JORDAN
Dominic told Jeff and Jordan that his back is against the wall and he wants to play with them now. Jeff said, “you have to climb the ladder before you get to the roof….we have to be able to trust you…and listen, you have to vote our way….or go home.”
CASSI MEETS WITH JEFF AND JORDAN
Cassi told them she wants her and Shelly to stay in this game as long as possible and will have no problem putting up other newbies.

First, Mila Kunis got asked to the Marine Corps Ball by a Marine –and she said yes.
If this trend of celeb invites and acceptances holds, the Marine Corps Ball will be the biggest star-studded event other than the Oscars. I am feeling left out here – where is my Marine Corps Ball invite? Anyone, Anyone?
Jonah Hill is looking skinnier and skinnier every time we see him. The Superbad star, 27, has been trimming down by 40 pounds in preparation for his role in 21 Jump Street.

Here are some other records Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 has crushed along the way since its premiere Friday:
Big Brother aired Thursday July 14. Below is a show recap:
OLDIES PLAY NICE
The oldies realized with Evel Dick out of the game, they were one more man down and needed to up their social game.
Brendon and Rachel played the big bootie game with the newbies. And Jeff said he will have to “whore” himself out and play nice as well. Rachel brought out “Vegas Rachel” to have fun with the houseguests. But Dominic was on to their strategy.
BRENDON AND RACHEL HAVE A TIFF OF A FIGHT
We find out “Boookieee” is Brendon and Rachel’s pet name for each other and Brendon is not happy about others knowing about it. He also did not want Rachel to play party girl because she is almost his wife. Brendon tells Rachel in private that he loves her with all his heart but feels that being called Bookie in front of everyone makes their relationship look like a joke. He slept on the couch as the two seemed a bit drifted.
The next day, Brendon tells Rachel he is trying to be a medical professional and feels emasculated by Rachel’s antics in front of people. They kissed and made up.
OLDIES AND ADAM
Jeff thinks Adam is a huge BB fan. So, in order to woo him more to the oldies’ side, he comes up with the idea of letting Adam pick the name for the oldies’ alliance. Brilliant Jeff! Adam came up with “Adam’s Angels.” I doubt that name will stick for two reasons: The name sucks. And Adam did not vote with the oldies in the eviction. Read more!
MESSAGE FROM EVEL DICK
Evel Dick sent a video message to the BB houseguests. He said he would never have left if it were not a personal emergency. He also apologized to his daughter Daniele for not being able to spend the summer with her, especially since the two seem to get along best inside that house per him. He told the rest of the house to play well and challenged them to fight hard. Daniele was asked to give her dad a message and all she said is, “hanging in there!”
Julie Chen asked Daniele, “No I love you?” to which Daniele responded, “That is so awkward. Of course I love my father, he is my biological father.” Fast forward to voting who to evict, Daniel rushed this out before she voted to evict Keith: “I just want to say I do love my father and I have done nothing but worry about him every day since he left.” Nice save Daniele.
Here is a full summary of Dick’s message as to why he left the BB house.
EVICTIONS
Both Porsche and Keith thought they were safe before the vote. In her plea for safety, Porsche kissed some major oldie ass. Here is who each houseguest voted to evict:
