TikTok Star Olivia Ponton Stumps Tayshia with Her 'Bachelorette' Question
Tayshia Adams is a pro by now when it comes to answering tough questions and discussing them.
Olivia Ponton, however, threw Tayshia for a loop on Thursday's new episode of "Click Bait with Bachelor Nation."
The TikTok star joined Tayshia, Joe Amabile, and Natasha Parker for a discussion, and Joe explained that each week, he and Natasha get to ask Tayshia a "burning question" about her season of "The Bachelorette." The generously offered Olivia to take the reins and do the honors of asking it.
She inquired, "If your mom was choosing one of these guys for you, who would it be? Or, if you dad was able to give out the First Impression Rose, who would your parents choose?"
Tayshia initially responded, "Wow, that's a really good question," then joked Olivia was "coming after your jobs."
The Bachelorette said, "I’m gonna keep it to the First Impression Rose. My mom would’ve given it to Brendan because he’s super sweet."
Olivia asked if he was a "mama's boy" and Tayshia said she was spot-on.
She continued, "My mom would be obsessed with him. My mom is obsessed with eyes, and all the guys have gorgeous eyes."
As for her dad, Tayshia joked he would pick "probably nobody. He doesn’t like anybody when he first meets them. My dad would’ve been like, 'This guy?'"
After more consideration, Tayshia believed her dad would approve of Ben because her dad "likes people with very constructive backgrounds, like military backgrounds are a good thing."
Tayshia, in actuality, gave her First Impression Rose to Spencer, and admitted on an episode of "Bachelor Happy Hour" that she felt "so much pressure" about it.
She told Becca Kufrin and Rachel Lindsay, "I felt like I had so much pressure with that damn First Impression Rose because all of you guys — and I’m not giving anything away — but all of you guys gave your First Impression Rose to the person you left with. I was like, 'I hope my intuition is correct!'"
