HGTV announces a ‘Bachelor' mansion renovation series. Here are the details
The famous 'Bachelor' mansion, which has been a staple in the long-running reality dating franchise for decades, is getting a makeover. On May 14, Warner Bros. Discovery announced in a press release that HGTV is partnering with Bachelor Nation for a new renovation show. 'Renovating the Bachelor Mansion,' a working title for the series, will premiere in 2026 on HGTV and HBO Max and feature Bachelor Nation alums as the competitors. 'Now, HGTV shines the light on this recognizable estate, giving the property the facelift it finally deserves,' Warner Bros. Discovery said. On the show, past 'Bachelor' and 'Bachelorette' contestants 'who possess expert reno skills return to the house to duke it out in various design challenges with the hope of winning a cash prize.' The 'Bachelor' mansion, where the contestants arrive during every season premiere dressed to the nines for their limo entrances, is located in Agoura Hills, California. Filming for 'The Bachelor' and 'The Bachelorette' has consistently taken place at the residence throughout the years, with the exception of the seasons that were shot during the COVID-19 pandemic. The most recent season of 'The Bachelorette,' starring Jenn Tran as the lead, also strayed from the norm. Episode One of Season 21 was filmed at Hummingbird Nest Ranch in Santa Susana, California, 'Entertainment Tonight' revealed in 2024. But for Grant Ellis' season of 'The Bachelor,' which premiered in January, the show returned to the iconic mansion. HGTV's upcoming crossover with ABC comes as 'The Bachelor' franchise undergoes a series of changes. Variety reported in February that 'The Bachelorette' will not air this year, a first for the show since it took a hiatus from 2005 to 2008. Then, ABC revealed in April that a newcomer, 66-year-old former NFL player Mel Owens, will lead Season Two of 'The Golden Bachelor' this fall. Next up for the 'Bachelor' franchise is the return of 'Bachelor in Paradise,' which hasn't aired since 2023. After filming in Mexico for past seasons, Season 10 of 'Bachelor in Paradise' will head to Costa Rica, the network shared in an April press release. It will change its format by featuring contestants from the 'Golden' spinoff shows, as well.

Largest Asian Pacific Beauty Campaign in History Debuts with Cultural Changemakers by Maybelline New York, Bustle, & Gold House
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, in honor of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, Maybelline New York, Bustle Digital Group (BDG), and community partner Gold House launched 'Face the Difference' — a bold new campaign on the cover of Bustle that celebrates the broad spectrum of Asian Pacific Beauty for the first time on a national scale. More than just a showcase of beautiful faces, 'Face the Difference' spotlights the Asian Pacific leaders who are changing culture and driving their industries forward — across fashion, entertainment, business, activism, and beyond. 'Face the Difference' features the most ambitious photoshoot in Bustle's history — a meticulously curated lineup of 40 trailblazers from across the Asian Pacific diaspora. Despite growing cultural influence, 1 in 3 Asian Pacific consumers still report seeing very few or no diverse Asian Pacific faces or cultures represented in advertising content 1 — and are the most likely identity group to buy from brands that represent them in ads 2. The campaign, developed by Asian Pacific creatives, is a response to that disparity, showcasing the beauty, power, and multifaceted identities of Asian Pacific leaders shaping culture today. Featured talent highlights include: TV personality and content creator Jenn Tran who was the first Asian American lead on The Bachelorette Olympic medalist Maia Shibutani who, along with her brother, became the first Asian American ice dance couple to be inducted into the U.S. Figure Skating Hall of Fame and just announced their return for the 2025-26 Olympic season Creator, Host, and Bestselling Author Drew Afualo who has used her platform to empower her community and is leading the new wave of the creator economy Fashion Designer Kim Shui who crafts new age, heritage-driven fashion Partake Foods CEO & Founder Denise Woodard whose multi-million dollar cookie phenomenon was born to solve snack time for her own daughter's food allergies Restaurateur Jenn Saesue who is building her own hospitality empire with cultural authenticity in a male-dominated industry Global Brand President of Maybelline New York Trisha Ayyagari who has led the brand through a bold era of innovation, inclusivity, and purpose-driven marketing President of Maybelline New York, Garnier, and essie USA, Amy Whang who has championed initiatives like the strategic partnership with Gold House to promote Asian Pacific representation The campaign's focus on 40 changemakers is a powerful nod to Maybelline New York's Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation, which features 40 true-to-tone shades and was one of the first mass beauty lines to champion true comprehension in shade matching. 'Maybelline New York has long championed the idea that beauty is for everyone,' said Alex Wang, Brand Marketing Director of Maybelline New York. 'This campaign is a powerful extension of that legacy, celebrating the strength and richness of the Asian Pacific community through a modern, comprehensive lens with our wonderful partners at Bustle Digital Group and Gold House.' 'Face the Difference' also reflects the deepening strategic partnership between Maybelline New York and BDG, built on a shared mission to tell bold, culturally resonant stories that drive the beauty industry forward. BDG's trusted editorial voice, creative vision, and ability to convene the most relevant talent have made it a leading partner for brands seeking to build authentic connections with modern audiences.

Jenn Tran Jokes ‘Long Live Jenn Tran as the Last Bachelorette' amid News of the Series Not Returning This Summer (Exclusive)
Jenn Tran is laughing off The Bachelorette's surprising production delay. Weeks after fans learned season 22 of The Bachelor spinoff wouldn't be returning for its usual summer slot, the latest lead of The Bachelorette gave PEOPLE a funny response to being asked about the series' hiatus. 'I don't know anything about that. Long live Jenn Tran as the last Bachelorette. I'd love that,' quips the reality star, 27, at the Cape Radiance Gala red carpet in Los Angeles on March 24. Related: Jenn Tran Says She and Sasha Farber Are 'Not in a Rush' to Define Their Relationship (Exclusive) The season 21 lead — who attended the gala with her former Dancing with the Stars partner Sasha Farber amid their undefined relationship — previously told PEOPLE her thoughts about the dating show's hiatus. 'It was a surprise to me. The franchise has been going on for so long. Sometimes you hear things like why [shows go on pause]. I have no idea why and what's going on there. I really have no idea,' she said last month. But she theorized at the time why it might have been pushed back. 'The Bachelorette does usually air in the summer when people are traveling — I heard that it doesn't do as well as The Bachelor, which airs in the fall, where people are home and ready to watch TV,' she added. 'So maybe it'll give a chance for the next Bachelorette to air at a time where there's more visibility. That would be nice.'

'I'm still learning how to dance. I'm getting my bang for my buck,' Tran says, before answering if it's mandatory to do dance lessons when hanging out with Farber. 'Yes, absolutely, right, honey? Right? Yeah,' she says beside Farber to which he replies, 'I love to teach her to dance.' 'He's my landlord, he's my social media person. He's everything,' she adds.
