Guys, we don’t want to alarm you but there are only two more sleeps until The Bachelor starts and there’s something a little odd about the contestants.
Yesterday, Network Ten released a photo of all 22 women who are vying for Matty J’s heart – and like any good investigative journalists we studied it for hours.
Then we sent it to the lab for testing and did some Mission Impossible style commando rolls while we waited for the results.
And the results were, well, a little bit unsettling. Our hunches were right. There’s something not quite right about this photo.
While Network Ten tried to throw us off the scent by including a really good ratio of blondes to brunettes – nine blondes, nine brunettes and four brondes according to our in-house forensic mathematician (me) – we still uncovered the truth…
There’s not a single redhead in the photo.
YEP, NOT ONE REDHEAD.
I mean, it’s 2017 guys – where’s the bloody diversity?
Oh! Also, everyone – every single person – is white.

Last season they would have done all the brunettes a favour by just saying "the boy likes blondes, we're casting all blondes so the rest of you aren't wasting your time".
If they're doing Matty J a disservice by basically broadcasting "he asked for exclusively white model-types 30 and under, no red hair", well, that's up to him to complain about.
Maybe redheads and non white people are wise enough to not want to take part in this garbage show
