When Sophie Monk was announced as Australia’s newest Bachelorette, we knew things were going to be different.
Not only is the 37-year-old one of the most recognisable faces in the Aussie entertainment industry, but she is hilarious, self-deprecating and, quite frankly, relatable as hell.
So how do you combine that personality with a show that arguably takes itself way too seriously for a program that’s about dating 353 guys at once while wearing fancy ballgowns surrounded by fake flowers?
Well, by putting images like THIS in the first promo for her season:
That's right, the one-minute-long teaser trailer for The Bachelorette pokes fun at Sophie's disgust at seeing happy couples left, right and centre.
Including a couple of dogs. Because dogs make everything more adorable and fun.
Of course at the end of the promo, Soph - who has dated famous faces like Sam Worthington, Benji Madden and Ryan Seacrest in the past - dons a ball gown in the perfect shade of Bachelorette red to prove that she is well and truly ready to find her "somebody to love".
