ChampagneGate turns into PillowGate on 'The Bachelor'

So far this season of The Bachelor has had a ton of drama and it’s only week three! Hannah B is back! No wait, there she goes. Ah, she’s back for more—nope she’s gone again. And let’s not forget the emotional support cow that basically won the introductions on the first night. Where are they keeping that beautiful bovine anyway? Nothing could possibly top this rollercoaster of emotions we feel for our  handsome pilot Peter during this turbulent time. Hold up, let’s tune in to the latest episode, it appears something is popping off with a bottle of champagne.*three hours later*Last week, we felt for beautiful Kelsey when the bottle of champagne she was saving for her one-on-one time with Peter was surreptitiously opened by blue-eyed beaut Hannah Ann. There were tears, there were apologies, there was a lot of foam exploding in her face. That’s a lewk.We warned you that more tea would undoubtedly be served surrounding ChampagneGate and, lo and behold, it dominated the first hour of Monday night’s episode.The two parties tried to sit down and resolve their differences, but the argument just seemed to go ‘round in circles until they lost all sense of what they were arguing about. Words like "bully" and "manipulative" were thrown around but viewers were up in arms about one specific exchange—did Hannah Ann say “fidasco” instead of fiasco? No, it was “finasco.” “Fedasco,” maybe? We got it, “fanasco.” Is the dress blue or black?! It's only mid-January and we already have a contender for the Yanny/Laurel of 2020![video_embed id='1590349']RELATED: Bachelor contestant Hannah B. would NOT like to make a toast[/video_embed]To top it off, Kelsey then let it slip that she doesn’t even like champagne. Girl, why are you spending an hour of our time starting drama about it then? Hard to disagree with her there—whether you liked it or not beforehand, after two episodes of this, no Bachelor fan will look at a bottle of bubbly the same again. Who thought "champagne-stealer" would be entered into the cultural lexicon?Enough about the bubbly, more about making Peter your hubby!

From Champagne Nights to Pillow Fights

The remainder of the episode had some really tense moments spurred on by the return of fan-favourite Demi (not Lovato, Burnett). Peter let the returning contestant plan out a surprise group date for him and some of the girls which featured an Extreme Pillow Fighting tournament. Is it a way to get the girls to work out their aggression? Maybe. Does it also feel awfully reductive and demeaning? Yes.[caption id="attachment_4768010" align="alignleft" width="720"] Giphy[/caption] Of course, the winner of the tournament (plus a pageant-type crown and brief Peter makeout sesh), Alayah, instantly got into hot water with all the other girls, leading to the least-fun pool party we've ever witnessed. Cue more accusations about manipulation, fakeness and Alayah trying to get Victoria P. on board with her lie to producers that they didn't know each other even though they did (the pageant circuit is apparently pretty small).All this was so confusing that Peter walked out in the middle of the rose ceremony, prompting Chris Harrison to removed one of the two roses left after a brief whispered discussion with The Bach. ICE COLD. And even though—SPOILER ALERT—Alayah didn’t get a rose, it seems from next week’s preview that this isn’t the end for her. We can’t wait to see how this plays out, but please, keep the champagne bottles at home, ladies.[video_embed id='1880304']Selena Gomez admits to buying her own album[/video_embed]
