This Bachelorette Contestant Is Totally Unrecognizable At The "Men Tell All"
Did he get a Targaryen-style makeover because he knew he'd be going into battle?
The “Men Tell All” special is always an opportunity for Bachelorette contestants to get a chance for a second impression, but sometimes that impression isn’t always a good one. Roby Sobieski was eliminated during the very first rose ceremony of The Bachelorette Season 19, but he showed up for the “Men Tell All” special with a brand-new look and attitude. Fans on Twitter had a lot to say about Roby and his memorable “Men Tell All” appearance, and they said it with memes.
First of all, it took fans a minute to even place Roby, since he showed up for the special with a whole new look. In his original Night 1 appearance, Roby had dark, shaggy hair and a sprinkling of stubble. But when Roby was introduced during “Men Tell All,” he was nearly unrecognizable thanks to a platinum-blonde dye-job straight out of the Targaryen family tree.
But it wasn’t just Roby’s new look that grabbed Bachelor Nation’s attention. He also managed to dominate a lot of the conversation at the start of the special, even though he played a pretty small role this season. Roby had a lot of criticism for both Jacob Rapini and James “Meatball” Clarke, but the rest of the guys would not stand for it. “You were at the mansion for four hours for a reason,” Ethan Kang said, shutting down Roby’s tirade.
No matter what drama Roby was trying to start among the rest of the guys, though, fans on Twitter simply could not get over his major makeover.
Roby’s new look reminded some fans of some classic early 2000s cinema.
Meanwhile, other fans thought Roby was trying to steal some celebrity looks.
Then, there were other fans who just couldn’t believe Roby decided to insert himself into the Bachelorette drama in such a big way.
But in the end, other fans were happy that Roby was calling out some of the other guys for some questionable behavior, no matter how he went about it.
Season 19 of The Bachelorette continues Monday, Sept. 5, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
