Bachelor Nation has already had its first black Bachelorette, but can they handle their firstjuicyBachelorette? They sure would, ifLizzohad her way.
In a new interview withCosmopolitan, the “Juice” singer, 31, said she’s be down for leading a version ofThe Bachelorette, the long-running ABC reality competition series.
“You know what, bitch? I would love to be the Bachelorette,” she told the publication. “If I was the Bachelorette, it would just be the coolest season ever.”
So how would it be different from other seasons ofThe Bachelorette?
For one, it’d be very sex positive — with Lizzo wanting at least one sexual act with a potential suitor to be filmed once a whole season. “It can be blurred, but I would want the people to know,” she said. “The kids gotta learn someday!”
The contestants vying for her heart would also be costumed in very specific outfits. “The men would have to be naked and they would have to wear little thong briefs,” she said. “And they would have to feed me grapes.”
