Amanda Hirsch, AKA NotSkinnyButNotFat, Discusses Her Bachelor Nation Fandom
The queen of pop culture, Amanda Hirsch — aka NotSkinnyButNotFat — stopped by the “Click Bait with Bachelor Nation” podcast this week!
Amanda discussed everything from how she grew her platform to her iconic interview with Kim Kardashian to her favorite Bachelor Nation shows.
Since she loves all things pop culture, co-hosts Joe Amabile, Natasha Parker, and Tia Booth had to ask her about her Bachelor Nation fandom.
Amanda told the co-hosts that she watches all the Bachelor Nation shows, saying, “I want to keep up with you guys, and if you don’t watch, you don’t know. I have to know who’s going on ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ and who’s hooking up. Of course I’m going to watch! Sometimes the beginning of a season can be harder, but I think the ending is always good. When you get down to the final four, we all live for it!”

And while Joe asked Amanda which of the Bachelor Nation shows is her favorite, she just couldn’t pick!
Amanda said, “I love ‘The Bachelor.’ I don’t think I have a favorite, but I do love watching ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ because it’s a sh*t show. It’s the most fun!”
Amanda, being the podcaster and amazing interviewer she is, turned the tables back on Joe and had a question for him.
The social media star asked Joe, “Who do you think is luckier in Bachelor Nation, you or Tyler Cameron?”
Joe laughed and responded to Amanda, saying, “I would say I’ve gotten the luckiest. I was sent home night one! I don’t think I was even really supposed to be cast on ‘Paradise’ the first time. I think Clay Harbor backed out and he was from Chicago and they put me in his spot.”

Joe went on, saying, “Yeah, Tyler is a good-looking guy and he’s a model, but he was probably going to get really popular from the show regardless. I was on ‘The Bachelorette’ for only a few seconds, so I’ll take some luck!”
Amanda chimed back in, saying, “Well, it’s not really luck; people love you. And you got to meet your fiancée Serena!”
Amanda shared that she got to meet Serena at an event and that she loves her and Joe as a couple.
And her Joe fandom didn’t stop there. Later in the episode when Natasha asked Amanda who she’d pick for People’s “Sexiest Man Alive,” Amanda gave Joe as her answer.
We love the Bachelor Nation fandom! To hear more of Amanda’s conversation with the “Click Bait” co-hosts, check out the full episode below.
