Bachelor in Paradise contestant Jamie Doran ‘commencing legal proceedings’ against Ten and Warner Bros
Bachelor in Paradise contestant Jamie Doran has said he is going to begin legal proceedings against the show’s producer, Warner Bros, as well as its broadcaster, Network Ten.
He is yet to elaborate on the nature of the proceedings.
Doran starred in last year’s season of The Bachelorette, and was dubbed a “stage-five clinger” by some viewers and commentators. It is also a term he has used to refer to himself. He also attracted headlines for perceived controlling behaviour and his intense emotions.
Uses Instagram to announce he’s not making any comments and for people to respect his privacy. Oh the irony.
I can’t stand this dude, or this show. It’s like a case study into toxic masculinity and manipulation. Blergh.
How is this industry news? Slow news day Mumbrella? Belongs over on DMA…
100% agree. If I wanted reality TV goss I’d go to Man of Many
I am an old man, but I still have a voice and a brain.
I have worked for more than 50 years in the world of professional theatre, and in spite of many outsider comments to the contrary, the actor is one who knows the difference between reality and fantasy full well, and he/she also knows exactly where the fence is situated.
So-called “reality shows” are no more dealing with the facts than are Snow White and the seven dwarves or Bambi. The acting is nonexistent, the direction is largely chaotic, the audiences are spoon-fed and manipulated, and apart from basic voyeuristic satisfaction, the exercise, profit amassing aside, is largely pointless.
