Shayne Lamas: Crazy Even By Bachelor Standards
All reality TV show contestants entertain us in their own ways, but we may truly have something special and unique in Shayne Lamas from The Bachelor.
She's Lorenzo Lamas' daughter, for one, but it goes beyond that. There is a longing, a desperation to be famous lingering deep within Shayne Lamas that defies even the lofty expectations set forth by appearing on The Bachelor at all.
She made her mark early on this season, emerging as one of the more insane assertive girls during the cocktail party premiere of The Bachelor.
That was just her getting warmed up.
During Monday night's episode, Shayne went all-in at a competition in Las Vegas in which the girl who won the most money got a date with Matt Grant.
She lost all her money instantly. Then cried about it.
Shayne Lamas complained, fighting back tears all the way, about how she's having such a hard time sharing Matt Grant with all the other girls.
She even pulled Matt aside and whined about how awful it is - it's just breaking her heart, people - for her to share a man. *whimper*
A man she's talked to for about 14 minutes in life. On a reality show.
She decided she's going to stay on the show, because she "might have feelings" for Matt Grant. She definitely has them for fame.
We salute you, Shayne Lamas. Keep up the good work.

She's extremely immature though she tries to play herself as sophisticated. She's very affected and full of herself. She's completely unrealistic and delusional. And, she's going to rack up at least as many marriages as her dad if her stint on this show is any indication of the future.

shayne is such a cute young lady, she is adorable and sexy at the same time. SHe is not crazy, I completely understand why she would not want to play second fiddle to the other girls, she wants to be number one. Competing for a man is silly when you are that beautiful and the men should be waiting in line to date her

that was a really mean comment by DIDI---
saying hateful hurtful things about people you do not know seems to be the American culture !!!!!!!
Hatred is masked as jealously !!!!

You know, during that episode, I was kinda wondering abt her, but ever since their one-on-one, she has really grown on me. AND, she has CONSISTENTLY been the one to speak to Robin abt monopolizing Matt's time when other women haven't had a chance to talk with him. She has turned out to be much more down to earth than I thought she was, as well as a peacemaker. So, yeah - now I like her a lot!
And Noelle seems like a real sweetheart, too. (Actually, I think as of 4/7, the remaining women are all pretty good, though Robin works my nerves.)

I just love Shayne! She is beyond gorgeous, she really has that whole stage presence actor thing. She is so funny being herself! The whole spray tan thing in the bath tub was hysterical! I love it! Remember when she told Matt, "don't worry, I'm not going to start stalking you!" He wishes! The dork! The only other one that I like is Chelsea, the physical trainer. I loved it when she went through Shaynes shoes! That was hilarious!! That fake British girl Robin really irks me and she looks like she is bilumic the way her face and eyes are all red and puffy and her jaw and neck muscles look worked. And then we have little Miss Slim Image New York or whatever dumb beauty contest she claims to have won that nobody's heard of. She has a 5-head instead of a forehead.
Why does he keep picking her? She is way too intense! I'm wondering if he's already decided that Shayne is the one and he just got rid of all the leggy blondes so that he wouldn't be tempted to sleep with them first? OK who else is left? Boring hiccup girl Amanda and grandma girl who's name nobody can remember. Oh great. They should be fun. I'd rather watch drunk Cameron Diaz girl, Kelly. Matt will definitely pick Shayne. He'll probably be bowled over by the home visits! Can you imagine? Her parents are like barbie & ken dolls but hotter! She is as genetically blessed as Shiloh!

We know who shayne's father is, but which of Lorenzo's wives is her Mother??

Michelle Smith is her mom

Oh my goodness!!! How freakin' cute is Shayne?! i had her picked as my favorite from the very beginning, but every week i love her more and more. She's beyond gorgeous. And hysterical. She is the perfect girl for Matt. The spray tan thing with Holly was so great. How about when she pulled her makeup bag out of her coat when they were snowboarding?! Ha ha. I love how high maintenance she is. She's so cute. i can't wait for Mondays episode to air!!! Go Shayne!!!

I think shayne is beyond beautiful and maybe it started off rough but she has more than proved herself to Matt. She is an incredible young woman and I believe she is there for all the right reasons. And now there is 3 and our Shayne is still standing. You go girl!!! Lake Havasu is rooting for you all the way.

well shayne is a piece of cake and if Matt picks her there won't be a wedding i can tell you that all shayne is doing is getting tv time her thing on the soap are slow so she just in this for people to see her for she said to her sister she not in love with him so why do you these girls play with these guys. I think shayne need ro tell him that she not in love. i would.

Shayne is a genious compared to Amanda who can't even string a sentence together without using the word LIKE every other word. No wonder he dumped her last night. How could he bring a bimbo like her home, like, to meet his parents.

My daughter was friends with Shayne when she lived in Lake Havasu City. Shayne was very endearing at that age, albeit a clutz, often tripping over things. But, she should be admired for working hard to make something of herself despite the quite dysfunctional family she was born in. She had (I can't speak for her now) a real genuiness about her and nothing of the arrogance and snobbery that her brother A.J. had who was in my son's classes.

Oh come on ladies, who hasn't thrown about a bit of drama now and again. She came off rather sincere for a young lady of her age. True, marriage might be a tough time for her, but take a look at her family. I wasn't too fond of her at the start, but I began to understand why Matt was taken with her in the end. She really comes off as a sweetie, but I am not in her life on a daily basis, so I cannot make assumptions. I am not the person looking to marry her and I am not alone with her, learning exactly who she is. She sure changed my mind. I like her.
May 12th, 2008 10:12 PM
You go Shayne!! Congratulations..you deserve it. If Matt choose Chelsea vs. Shayne she would of probably lost it, Chelsea didn't really seem to mind. I think her feelings are true.
May 13th, 2008 5:17 PM
You go Shayne.........don't give the negative comments a second thought!!!!! One life, no dress rehearsal...........
May 13th, 2008 5:19 PM
Well, the big dummy PICKED Shayne, didn't he?
Her own father said he wasnt' sure she was on it for any other reason then to "act her way through it" and get on TV- in anything!" Well, apparently she DID. She's a tarted up, California bleached blonde AIRHEAD- and the little girl looking for a daddy act is just this side of sickening. Now he's engaged to her- which only proves that even a sophisticated man like Matt Grant can fall victim to a "B" list actress- and not a very good one at that.
May 13th, 2008 10:42 PM
way to go!!! we're proud of you back home... we'd love for you to bring Matt by the old stomping ground :) take care!
May 13th, 2008 10:51 PM
I picked Shayne out right off the bat. You could see the sparks immediately. I wish them the best and hope they make it. I'm rooting for them. Here's to love at first sight.
May 14th, 2008 10:42 AM
well i can say she can act it wasn't fair but she got the last rose i think the show was a setup and shayne father had something to do with it . Matt knew lenrzo lamas and he played realgood matt gave the show away and he don't eve realize it so i hope the next bachelor is better and he pick the right one shayne i s ajoke ahe 22 year old and a dizzle blonde and not ready for children all she ready is sex and for a lot of comments on how is look and her watches, rings, hats, carsand shoes and that very muntity to me.
May 14th, 2008 7:35 PM
Wow, Sharon. You sure sound bitter. Are you really Chelsea?
May 14th, 2008 7:38 PM
Or Amanda? Robin, maybe?
