The Bachelor Results: Matt Eliminates Three

Reality TV Magazine - Scottsdale, AZ, USA - On the second episode of The Bachelor 12, Londoner Matt Grant divided the remaining 15 bachelorettes into two groups for group dates.  For the first group date, Matt took Ashley, Kristine, Marshana, Noelle, Michelle, Amanda, Erin H., and Holly to a fashion show.

To the surprise of the bachelorettes, they soon learned that they would be the models walking the catwalk.  During the fashion show, Holly moonwalked, and Amanda took her shirt off (to reveal a bikini top).  After the fashion show, Marshana questioned Matt on how he felt about interracial dating, while Michelle P. sang Matt a song that she had written for him.  However, Ashlee took a more direct approach and claimed the first kiss and the first group date rose from Matt.  Ashlee rubbed the rose in the faces of the other girls.

For the second group date, Matt took Kelly, Carri, Chelsea, Robin, Amy, Erin S., and Shayne to the Paris Las Vegas Hotel and Casino.  Matt challenged the bachelorettes to collect the most chips during thirty minutes of gambling.  Robin pulled Matt away to talk to him alone, while Shayne lost all her money on roulette.  Kelly won the competition and received an exclusive champagne and dessert one-on-one with Matt.  When Matt returned, Shayne got upset and had an emotional confrontation with Matt.

After gambling, Matt took the bachelorettes up to the Napoleon suite.  Chelsea talked to Matt about her stubborn streak, while Robin played classical piano for Matt.  At the end of the date, Matt chose to give his last group date rose to Chelsea.  Shayne got upset and went to the ladies room to cry.
