“Leaked” Bachelorette rap music video with Desiree Hartsock and Soulja Boy
The Bachelorette 2013 premieres tonight on ABC, but before it airs, fans are getting an unauthorized sneak peek at one of Desiree Hartsock’s group dates in the form of a leaked music video! In the clip, Desiree and a handful of her suitors perform a rap song with Soulja Boy about the “right reasons,” an infamous recurring catchphrase on the show in reference to the “true” motives of the competitors.
The video spoofs some former contestants that were obviously not on the show for the “right reasons,” including my favorite: Justin “Rated R” Rego!
Here are the full lyrics for Desiree Hartsock and Soulja Boy’s song “Right Reasons:”
[Soulja Boy] Yo! What up, what up? This ya boy Soulja Boy, tell ’em.
[Desiree] What’s up Soulja Booooooy?
[Soulja Boy] Let’s get it Des. Let’s go! You look pensive baby. Maybe you should go and do some contemplatin’!
[Guys]
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the right reasons
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the whole season
[Desiree]
I’m The Bachelorette
and I’m rappin’ to ya poolside
Here to find love
One love for my whole life
Last time you saw me
I was cryin’ in a limo
Sean sent me home
and put my heart in limbo
Dating all these guys
really ain’t that easy
I’m lookin’ for a husband
Not abs and a cheesy
Smile for the camera
Let’s go on a date
Will he be a dud
????
Step up!
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the right reasons
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the whole season
[Guy]
My man just sent me
To promote my single
I’ll sing to you girl
If it helps me sell my jingle
You’ll love me the most
some I’ll make queazy
But one thing’s for sure
Love don’t come easy
[Desiree]
I’m here for love
Not here for the drama
If you mess with me
You’re going home to your mama
I need a real man
I’m done with you playas
Mister Right stand up
Mister Wrong see ya later
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the right reasons
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the whole season
[Guy]
I got a big broken leg
And a girlie back home
I thought if I limped
She’d throw me a bone
I’m jobless I’m homeless
She’s a means with no end
I’m here to get famous
Not to make friends
[Soulja Boy] Des you got him! Keep goin’
[Guy]
I’m just a single dad
Maybe you think it’s all fine
I propose one day
The next day I change my mind
I cry so much
It’ll make you sick
Oh wait
This is the ???
Why? Why?
[Chris Harrison]
And so that’s our story
That’s how it goes
But who will get
The final rose?
Stay with us
On this journey of joy
[Desiree] SPOILER ALERT!
[Soulja Boy] She ends up with Soulja Boy!
Right reasons, right reasons,
Here pretty girl for all the right reasons
The video was allegedly “leaked” earlier this month, but to me it looks like a perfect example of marketing by the network. Others don’t agree.
“You can obviously tell it’s not finished,” a source tells Wetpaint Entertainment. “It’s still got the time code on it for goodness sakes. Production has no clue who managed to get a copy. The first they learned of it was when it posted on YouTube. The whole situation is very strange.”
While producers often end up in an uproar over these type of things, The Bachelorette peeps don’t seem to be too worried about it. After all, it’s only going to give fans more to talk about, right? I must reluctantly confess that making a rap video with Soulja Boy is a lot better idea than most of the themed group dates we see on the show.
“At the end of the day, everyone realized the leak isn’t the worst thing in the world,” the source continues. “Instead of fighting it, they decided to embrace it because it really gives a taste of how fun and spontaneous Desiree is. A lot of people who work on the show think she’s the best Bachelorette we’ve ever had.”
Don’t miss The Bachelorette 2013 when it premieres on ABC tonight at 8/7c!
