Demi Burnett Wasn't Very Excited That Colton Underwood Was Chosen for 'The Bachelor'

For all terms and purposes, Colton Underwood wasn’t a terrible Bachelor. Sure, there was a big fuss about his virginity. And yeah, there was the whole drama of him jumping the damn fence over his frustration with Cassie Randolph. But hey, those things aside, Colton really wasn’t all that bad! The funny thing, though, is that some people weren’t a fan of Colton before he even got to fulfill his Bachelor duties. See: Demi Burnett, who in case you forgot, was an actual contestant on Colton’s season of The Bachelor!

During an appearance on Nicole Franzel and Victor Arroyo’s Coco Caliente podcast, Demi revealed that she was secretly hoping a different dude would be chosen as the Bachelor. “At first, I didn’t know. I was kinda like — I hate to say that I was bummed about it, but I kinda was,” she said. “I just wanted it to be anyone else.”

Instead, Demi really wanted Jason Tartick—who’s now in a relationship with former Bachelorette, Kaitlyn Bristowe—to be the Bachelor after seeing him compete on Becca Kufrin’s season of The Bachelorette. “I think at the time, I was probably like — this guy Jason was, like, the hot commodity,” she recalled. “I think that I wanted it to be him.”

Despite not being fond of Colton being the new Bachelor at the time, Demi said that she grew to like him as time went on. “I love Colton,” Demi said. “He’s a great guy.”

Welp, Demi’s now in a happy relationship with her brand new boyfriend, so I guess she can look back on this and laugh!
