The season finale of The Bachelor is tonight, and Shayne Lamas looks poised to land the prize. That being Matt Grant. But will Chelsea stand in her way? That's the subject of today's Face-Off. Brace yourself as The Hollywood Gossip debates ...
WILL SHAYNE LAMAS WIN THE HEART OF THE BACHELOR, MATT GRANT?
YES by Free Britney
Face it, no one goes on The Bachelor for love.
It would a nice side effect, to be sure, if one found the love of one's life. But the women and the bachelors themselves go on the show because primarily, they are enamored with fame, at least to a certain extent.
If Matt Grant merely wanted to find love, he'd join a local London-based service, or go online to millionaireloves.com or one of the many other crappy dating sites that spams The Hollywood Gossip constantly.
NOTE: Get a new career, millionaireloves.com spammers.
No, he wanted to date hot women on TV, and Shayne Lamas fits the Bachelor bill better than anyone in the show's history - entertaining, reasonably hot, ethically questionable and shamelessly trying to be famous.
Shayne Lamas' listed profession is "actress." Now that the 22-year-old has her first taste of fame, she'll stop at nothing to remain in the spotlight.
She'll laugh at the right jokes, appear adventurous and fun, cry if things don't go well, go down on Matt in a movie theater, probably even murder her competition if she has to. Long story short, Chelsea has no shot.

In selecting his bride-to-be, Matt Grant would be well-served to heed a lesson learned by fellow Brit, Paul McCartney:
Don't marry a nut job.
Sir Paul is suffering through a never-ending divorce case with Heather Mills as a result of his disastrous decision; I fear Grant will equally regret tying the knot with Shayne Lamas, a woman that may possess one more real leg than Mills, but the same number of crazy brain cells.
Conversely, there's Chelsea. Sweet, beautiful Chelsea.
As I watched The Bachelor this season, I was taken by how different Chelsea seemed than the usual desperate, slutty, insecure women that appear on this show. She held back, she let Matt come to her, she actually made Grant work for her affection. Her connection with Matt is as sincere as a relationship can be... on a reality TV show.
Shayne's brother, meanwhile, once dated Lindsay Lohan. You don't wanna be anywhere near that family tree, Matt Grant.
Chelsea looks to thwart Shayne Lamas on The Bachelor ... but can she?

Matt has made a huge mistake in picking this young 22 yr. old ASPIRING actress in Shayne Lamas. She has gained what she needed...exposure! What a shallow-faced child she is...Chelsea I am so sorry...and Matt you shoud be ashamed of looking only and T & A.........no brain matter there in Shayne.

Too bad u missed your opportunity Matt! How long will this last before she goes on to bigger and better things...like her career.
I really felt you would make a decision based on your heart but, you decided with what was between your legs !
BAD DECISION!

I think Shayne is beautiful sweet and sincere. She speaks like a lady who know what she wants and nothing detered her from going for it! I say YOU GO GIRL, plus you were brilliant to watch on screen, I loved all your fabulous accessories!
Matt is Lucky to have you.

This show is a farce! Who in the hell really thinks any of this is serious...like right they would really wed! Get real!

Well, I agree that the odds are almost insurmountably stacked against the 'happy couple.' Only one couple produced by this reality monstrosity has lasted (Trista & Ryan). But, for what it's worth, I hope Matt and Shayne are as happy for as long as they can be. I like Shayne a lot. I don't know why there are so many haters out there. Yes she likes to have fun, yes she's goofy, but she has been upfront about that side of her personality with Matt every episode. What I appreciate about Shayne is though she is the blondest, she says "LIKE" the LEAST out of all the bachelorettes, and she is able to hold a grammatically correct and semi-intelligent conversation. I think he made the right choice. I hope they last for as long as they can! :)

would like to know since this was filmed a while ago are they still together......

I heard recently that they are still together, planning a wedding and are ecstatically happy. I think they make a perfect couple.

I was SOOOOO angry when he picked Shayne!! Chelsea is as real as they come, she had nothing to gain but him in this situation, but Shayne on the other hand got exposure. Chelsea gave him a sincere gift that was really for him not about her like Shayne's was...and Chelsea's gift displayed real thought and character, Shayne just gave him a picture of herself...big deal if it said I love you in it...its easy to throw words around and the fact that Chelsea was so careful with using them just shows how much feeling was really behind her words! Chelsea was right, he is a fool, and I have no doubt that he will realize that in time. Why do guys always have to think with their anatomy!! UGH!!!

Chelsea, if by any chance you read this, keep your chin up, because you are an incredible woman, I related to you sooo much, not just because we are the same age, but because you are goofy, spontaneous, and REAL, you show what you are feeling no matter what it might cost you, there is no reason to be ashamed in that! I, too, have been let down MANY MANY times and we just have to remember that everything happens for a reason and that God never closes a door without opening a window! So just KNOW that God has something else better for you out there sweetie!! I hope you find all that you are looking for!
