Juan Pablo Galavis New Douchey Act: 'Bachelor' Will Appear In Atlantic City Club; Denies Show As Claim To Fame

Juan Pablo Galavis has been one of the most controversial personalities from "The Bachelor." Before the reality show Galavis claims he was a pro soccer player, but America in general did not know who he was until cast in the ABC production. Now TMZ is reporting that the former bachelor doesn't want to be associated with the program that launched him into infamy. The site has a flyer for an event he will be appearing at in Atlantic City and there is no mention of "The Bachelor" to his specifications. "His ludicrous demands didn't end there -- Juan agreed to a 15-person meet-and-greet on the condition no one asked about his reality show stint. Same rule goes for reporters looking for interviews," TMZ reports. For his presence at the club he is getting paid $20,000. Not a bad gig, right?

Chris Harrison, host of the ABC show, blasted Juan Pablo in a column he wrote for an online website. As presenter of the reality show he has seen the complications from the inside and claims that "from the beginning something just didn't seem right." Harrison wrote a blog on Entertainment Weekly to express his feelings on the ending of this season. "I want to start off by saying I’m not mad about how the season ended nor am I angry with Juan Pablo," Chris wrote. "For some reason I feel that there is some notion that I dislike him, and that’s just not the truth. One of the many things I love about this show is every season is different because every Bachelor or Bachelorette is different. They bring in their own culture, background, issues, and baggage. This show will do many things to you, and one of those things is it will expose you, for better or for worse, and sometimes both."

"The Bachelor" host went on to say that the former soccer player struggled with giving in to the process and exposing himself. "I truly believe Juan Pablo came into this season with those true intentions. I also know that when we chose him we truly believed he had the qualities that would make him a great Bachelor," he wrote. "But from the beginning something just didn’t seem right and something didn’t fit. We can debate over what that is, but the truth is that is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is this was a struggle for Juan Pablo and it was a struggle almost all the way through. I, along with all of our producers, tried as hard as we could to figure this out and make it easier on him, and I know he tried to find those answers himself. At times, he did seem to let his guard down and enjoy and embrace the process, but overall it was a struggle."
