The Standings Before Episode 2 The first rose ceremony has come and gone, and these are the lucky ladies that made the cut: AGNESE: Agnese is a student from Italy. She was one of the spoilers that was introduced late in the evening. Although they couldn't communicate very well, she must have made some impression... but the rest of the ladies were dismayed to find out that Lorenzo decided to keep her around. Maybe he's just imagining what she looks like in a ski outfit, and is hoping to have an opportunity to see if the reality stacks up against fantasy. DESIREE: Desiree is a 22-year-old realtor who currently resides in Salt Lake City, UT. Well Desiree was on a mission to make a first impression, and she definitely did! Was it the fact she called him "Baby" about a hundred times, or the showgirl strip dance that she gave him in the courtyard that won her spot? Hmmm... I'm going with 'All Of The Above.' ELLEN: Ellen is a 30-year-old realtor who currently resides in New Haven, CT. Ellen has a biggest prettiest smile, and she flashed it right away. It certainly got Lorenzo's attention, and must of kept it too! ERICA: Erica is a 23-year-old socialite who currently resides in Houston, TX. Ahhh, well... our spoiled little rich b*tch has been crowned. Erica is the one we hated to be picked because there were so many other nicer options, but at the same time that we're going to love to watch because she'll be stirring the pot from morning till night. That's good TV! GINA: Gina is a 28-year-old ultrasound technician who currently resides in Chicago, IL. My gosh, the scowl on this girl could turn Medusa to stone! Gina needs to work on hiding her emotions a bit, don't you think? She had a sour face through half of the show, pretty much whenever Lorenzo was paying attention to anyone but her. Let's vote her "Most Likely to Become a Scary Stalker" should she ever be left without a rose. I can't wait to see her eventual breakdown! JAMI: Jami is a 27-year-old event planner who currently resides in Galveston, TX. Jami is so nice and genuine. You kind of wanted to see her stick around from the very moment you met her when she was getting packed to go. If all is right in the world, she'll be around towards the end. She seems to have a lot of energy and spunk, and will be fun to watch. JEANETTE: Jeanette is a 23-year-old teacher who currently resides in Bloomingdale, IL. Jeanette and Lorenzo had an easy little banter with each other as soon as she stepped out of the limo. I wasn't surprised to see that he kept her around. JENNIFER: Jennifer is a 24-year-old teacher who currently resides in Pembroke Pines, FL. Well, I thought that first line after she got out of the limo, about her being from "his state" of Florida was kind of cheesy and forced, but obviously he made a connection with her. We'll have to wait to see if they have any more in common than the Sunshine State> KIM: Kim is a 27-year-old interior designer who currently resides in Long Beach, CA. Kim seems to be one of those down to earth and, dare I say it, "normal" girls. Who knows what drama we have in store, but right now... she looks like someone he would be happy to bring home to mama. LISA: Lisa is a 25-year-old marketing manager who currently resides in Portland, OR. Who knew that hugging trees was the way to this prince's heart? Lisa walks away with the First Impression Rose, and a damn nice pair of earrings to boot. And she managed this while being completely tipsy and announcing she would be willing to lick a slug! Well you never know what's going to ring someone's bell. Let's see if he still likes her as much when she's sober. SADIE: Sadie is a 23-year-old publicist who currently resides in Carlsbad, CA. Awww... this girl is a total sweetie! I liked her as soon as she stepped out of the limo. Now, if Lorenzo would have known she was saving herself, would he have kept her? Well... possibly. But as unfair as it it, this probably won't work in her favor in the long run. You know guys, and how they like to test drive their cars. SARAH: Sarah is a 30-year-old journalist who currently resides in Nelson, British Columbia. Sarah is our token, uh, Canadian. I'm sure that Lorenzo kept her around just to make it look like he would be open to marrying, uh... a Canadian. If history serves however, she'll be out by the third rose ceremony. That's about the time we tend to, uh, lose the Canadians.
