The Bachelor London-Final Four Bachelorettes

Only six bachelorettes left, gee where did this season go? Chris Hanson tells the girls that there will be 2 one on one dates and one group date, but pack your bags because it's off to Sun Valley Idaho. The girls get all giddy, like girl scouts on a camping trip. Sun Valley looks absolutely awesome and what better way to snuggle up to bachelor Matt that with all that snow. Chelsea gets the lucky single date, a sleigh ride with cocoa. Marshana was a little bit exuberant that Robyn didn't get the single date, hey me too! Marshana hugging Chelsea like she had won the lottery or something. While Robyn fumes, why didn't he pick me! Come on Robyn, he's probably so sick of you by now, you've weaseled your way into everyone's time with him. Matt wants to see if Chelsea is more than a good friend or will she open up and show her affectionate side. The sleigh is pulled by those beautiful Clydesdale horses through a open meadow of pure white snow. What a perfect setting. Chelsea tells Matt that she's not affectionate and that she doesn't like to to hold hands (well, maybe because she has man hands?). Come on girl, reveal that later when you've got the ring on the finger. Matt tells her he likes to hold hand and to be affectionate. Hey Matt, you want to snuggle with me? Back at his digs, Chelsea really wants to prove her undying love to him, so she writes a note of her own, inviting herself into his fantasy suite. And guess what, he accepts, now what guy would turn down a free booty call? Do they really do it? After the date and back at the condo, the girls are innocently chatting when all of sudden, girls being girls, start to get into it. Of course Cruella di Vil, Robyn, made some snide remark to Marshana, which Marshana just went off, and then Chelsea piped in that it seemed like Marshana didn't really want to be there. Marshana then went into her sweeping hand pounding, head moving gestures and Shayne had to step in as peacemaker. Hey, did they buy all those knit caps the girls were wearing on the slopes? Marshana says she has been nothing but nice, friendly, giving and charitable. Well......not exactly Mother Teresa. For the group date, Shayne, Marshana, Amanda and Robyn hit the slopes. Marshana and Amanda are as Matt puts it, snow virgins as they don't know how to ski. Shayne impresses Matt with her snowboarding abilities and he promptly rewards her with a kiss on the slopes which is rudely interrupted by, you guessed it, Robyn. Robyn weasles her way in, again, and lays in the snow her lips in pursed askance for a kiss from Matt. The kiss looked cold as ice. Matt's date with Noelle is to an ice skating rink. Even though they were engaged in a very physical sport of not falling down on the ice, Matt doing a very nice ice robot imitation, Matt did manage to get a sense of what Noelle is all about. Noelle seems like a very nice girl, like Amanda, they could be sisters! No roses were given out on the dates, so only four roses to six girls. Back in LA, Robyn ask Matt, why she wasn't asked out on the one on one. Matt said that he knew what she was about, I bet, to which she said that was what she needed to hear. No, you only hear what you want to hear! I'm sorry, but I don't know why I can't stand her, oh yeah, because she steals everyone else's time, she tries to steal the show and she's just plain, plain, plain yogurt. Matt gives the roses to Shayne, first pick, Amanda, Noelle and surprise, man hands, Chelsea. I thought for sure he would pick Robyn over Chelsea, but he sent Robyn and Marshana packing. Marshana managed to remain a lady and said that she will take her little self back to Brooklyn, where she belongs. I was kinda of sorry to see Marshana go, would like to see an ethnic woman make it to the final four. Robyn on the other hand, if looks could kill, they would have sent a thousand daggers into our bachelor. Her icy stare and curt "Bon Soir" had all the ring tones of a woman scorned. Can you say fatal attraction! Move over Alex! I can't wait for the hometown dates, sure to be filled with awkward and strange family moments.-Single D

The bachelorettes are turned into snow bunnies because it's off to Sun Valley, Idaho for this edition of the bachelor. Once there and everyone is in their snow gear, Matt gets all playful throwing the girls in the snow. Marshana thinks she is all that in her outfit and didn't want to get all snowy. That didn't stop Matt from chasing her down and tossing her in a snow drift. Too bad he couldn't have left her there.

Chelsea gets the first one on one sleigh ride. I agree, how romantic does that get?! Except that Chelsea seems to be more of a friend than a lover, until she decides to make her own fantasy suite card for Matt. Matt seems to be pretty happy about that. My husband is still trying to figure out a way to get on that show, gee dear does the word BACHELOR mean anything to you? We can arrange that! Just don't forget there is a Bachelorette show too!

Anyway, back on the slopes and Marshana can't stand on skis while Shayne has her whole makeup stash in her ski jacket. Matt & Shayne are sharing a moment when in comes Robyn. Shayne graciously leaves (that girl knows how to make them wanting more) leaving Matt with the barracuda who says all she wants to know is why she hasn't been chosen for a one on one date. Matt reassures her that they had a connection early on and she is satisfied for now.

Noelle gets the next one on one date which is ice skating (Single D's favorite sport). They talk about life changing events and scars and that seems to bring Matt closer to Noelle, but then again what doesn't bring Matt closer to anyone? Can I have a shot?

Marshana goes on a rampage when she is called negative but she sees herself as loving and giving. Raise your hands, who does this remind you of, Omarosa maybe?! She also seems to drink to anything.

In the end Marshana goes home saying she will leave the lady that she came in as. As she leaves she trips over her dress, what does that say? And a big SEE YA to Robyn! Double D
