If she is making false accusations he absolutely should sue. Would he get her daddy's company? No. I'm sure it is protected by an LLC or something. Re: 2 producers who complained. Allegedly, they had not actually seen the event. Also, I would suspect she was drunk during the hookup, but lucid. Then she felt guilty and tried to drink her worries away leading to her becoming blackout drunk. I wish they would release the takes. Not that I want to see these 2 get jiggy, but I would like to form my own opinion. |
| I'm really sick of people getting so intoxicated that they have no idea what's going on and then being shocked when bad things happen. It's irresponsible to expect other people to take better care of you than you take care of yourself. |
good point! |
| DeMario has been aggressively asking for the tapes to be released. Doubt he would be doing so if he had something to hide. |
| Demario has been fired from his job. Release the tapes before you completely ruin his future. I hope, if innocent, he can afford decent representation. He has a lawyer, but the fact he had a job makes me think he doesn't have money bags like Corinne to hire the best. |
Agreed. At the very least BIP needs to release a statement clearing him of assault. |
Why would they do that? They're going to be looking for anyone else they can possibly pin liability/guilt on, whether it's true or not. I do feel for DeMario. Coming so close on the heels of his episode of being kicked off Rachel's season and positioned as a two-timing liar, this really has to be a pretty destructive situation for him. Reality TV is a beast has been good to plenty of people, but he is getting fed to the monster. It's a risk people think will never happen to them. |

I listened to a podcast on Tuesday "Here to Make Friends." It was taped on Monday. The first half was with Reality Steve was fine. Nothing new. The second half was with Michael Garofola (who was on Desiree's season and also BIP 2). He gave a lot of interesting insight from the contestant side. He's also an attorney, but they did not do a lot of legal type discussion. One of the interesting topics they discussed was how likely it was that Corinne and DeMario's hookup was a "pre-planned story" (and WHY he had that opinion). The entire podcast was about 90 minutes, 45 minute each to RS and Michael G.
|
Because almost every account - except Corrine's "friend" - have stated that Corrine was the aggressor. That she climbed on his face. And that she was 100% lucid. There's no reason to hide that information if it clears DeMario. It would also show her assault claim against the show is BS. |
| They shouldn't have acted like that if they didn't want to look bad later. It's their own faults. No one is taking responsibility for their own actions. Just because alcohol is there doesn't mean you have to drink it. Just because the producers tell two people to hook up doesn't mean you have to. |
I'm the person who posted about the "Here to make friends" podcast. Michael G hypothesized exactly what happened prior to their arrival. He said with near certainty that they had both expressed interest in each other prior to the show to production. (If you have watched BIP in the past, there will be comments like "I was hoping she'd/he'd be here." and "He/She was the reason I came to Paradise.") Last year, BIP had Lace and Chad (two villains from their respective seasons) hook up on night one. Essentially, Corrine & DeMario were basically the BIP 3 version of Lace & Chad. MG said something like "There is never a new plot. Just new characters." He felt pretty sure that they were already interested in each other prior to production and that getting "word" from production was just the final fuel to the fire. So, right, just because the producers told them to hook up doesn't mean they had to. But they WANTED to! (*) (*) Even though Corrine has a boyfriend... |

I'm going to play the race card again. The Bachelorette finally has some diversity beyond a token black woman and token black guy. The first person to practically have his life ruined by the franchise is a black guy who by most witness accounts simply made the mistake of accepting Corinne's advances with gusto. Rich blond girl can hire the best lawyer possible to milk it and the working black guy loses his job. It is just really sad. Yes, it's sad if it's a white guy too, but black men have enough bias to deal with already.
If he is guilty, then I take this all back, but so far it just sounds like he is getting destroyed for having a libido and saying "yes" to fooling around. |
Agreed |
| He showed his true colors though when his girlfriend showed up and Rachel confronted him. And the fact that Corinne saw nothing wrong with that shows her poor judgement. Maybe a bad picture is being painted of him but it is what it is. |
We don't even know if that is real. They may have broken up and they both agreed to do that for the TV time. The villains get a lot of press. Corinne could have had her own show. Now, definitely not. |
