Could someone tell me why Melissa did not introduce Jason to her family? I missed that episode and always felt that was a "red flag" regarding her. But, I don't know the whole story.

It's not that she didn't want to, her parents said they weren't comfortable with the public-ness of the whole show, being on camera, etc

I call BS on that. (not on you, but his reason to contact Molly)

DaffyKD

What about "permission" from Melissa?

Just saw on both People and US Weekly websites that Melissa is joining Dancing With the Stars as the replacement for Nancy O'Dell. Guess she isn't too pissed at TPTB at ABC.

Good Lord!! Has Melissa not been humiliated in public enough?? She is either a glutton for punishment or a total publicity whore. Of course, she could certainly be both, as they are not mutually exclusive! Sympathy alone will get her through a few rounds, but still...

Of all the ways to parlay her 15 minutes of fame into something a bit bigger, this isn't a bad way to do it. Dancing with the Stars isn't going to delve into her personal life too much. She won't be followed 24-7 by cameras. It's not a typical reality show that's going to exploit her. Though she'll have to be "the girl who got dumped" , but hey, that just makes Jason look like more of a schmuck every time it gets brought up.

There's A LOT worse things she could've done... Playboy, some other craptastic reality show.

And she shouldn't do too bad, She has a dance background.

kddani, I was thinking the same thing too. She could do really well on the show, she has a dance background, alot of the same people who really liked her on the bachelor will watch and vote on dwts, and who knows, maybe she'll hook up with one of those really hot Russian dancers????

Pictures please? I googled Melissa Rycroft and Ty and am coming up empty.

Good for her!!! Now I have a fave for this season... it was looking pretty bleak.

SATX*APhi · #**224** 03-09-2009, 04:32 PM

If this is true, I have one question: Why?

I can't find pictures to post but they show pictures during the Ellen DeGeneres interview. I think her interview w/ Ellen might still be on Ellen's website.

And like others have said, she has a very strong dance background, so there's a possibility she will do really well.
