The Leads Get Paid
The leads are the only ones paid to appear on the show. Originally, they were paid a salary close to what they would make in their regular jobs, however, now, leads don’t make any less than six figures. Emily Maynard, for example, was paid $250,000 for her appearance.
Voice Coaching
Former Bachelorette, Jillian Harris, was sent to speech lessons by the producers to “get rid of her Canadian accent.” The classes were canceled, however, when producers realized her voice was part of her appeal.
