<p id=”par-1_61″>Just a few weeks ago<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/the-bachelorette/?swcfpc=1″>, <em>The Golden Bachelorette</em></a> fans watched Joan Vassos pick Chock Chapple. Now, their focus is on the eventual second season of <em>The Golden Bachelor</em>. Famed comedian <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kathy-griffin-was-investigated-by-the-federal-government-for-an-infamous-photo.html/”>Kathy Griffin</a> is looking even further into the future than that; the comedian is interested in leading <em>The Golden Bachelorette</em> season 2.

<p id=”par-2_59″>Kathy Griffin is known for her outlandish jokes and often <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kathy-griffin-is-banned-from-almost-every-major-talk-show.html/”>controversial actions</a>. While Griffin has been through a lot, she’s just as spunky and wild as ever. The 64-year-old comedian recently appeared on <em><a href=”https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-politickin-with-gavin-new-191537944/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Politickin</a></em><a href=”https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-politickin-with-gavin-new-191537944/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>‘</a> and expressed her interest in appearing on<em> The Golden Bachelorette</em>. Griffin wants to lead a much more X-rated version of the wildly successful dating competition, though.</p>

<p id=”par-3_53″>Griffin joked that she had the perfect pitch for <em>The Golden Bachelorette</em> season 2 during her podcast appearance. She suggested she, as the lead, could sleep with each possible contestant before deciding who gets a rose and who gets sent home on the first night. She joked that it would be “ratings gold.”</p>

<p id=”par-4_54″>Griffin is twice married. She married her first husband, Matt Moline, in 2001. She accused Moline of stealing money from her before their split. The couple called it quits in 2006. In 2020, she married Randy Bick. The couple, who were together since 2012, separated in December 2023. The divorce is not yet final.</p>

<p id=”par-5_71″>While Griffin’s X-rated pitch won’t be making it to air, an insider claims ABC isn’t against casting a celebrity in the role. In fact, Griffin might have some actual pull with the network if it comes down to it. She has appeared in a reality TV competition on ABC before. <a href=”https://ew.com/kathy-griffin-wants-to-be-golden-bachelorette-abc-open-8752415″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Entertainment Weekly</a> spoke to an insider who alleges the network is “open” to sitting down with Griffin to discuss the franchise.</p>

Should ABC Go in a New Direction With the Lead of ‘The Golden Bachelor’ Season 2? </a>
</p>
</div>
<p id=”par-6_72″>Despite rumors that ABC is willing to entertain the idea, it seems unlikely that the network will actually opt to go in the direction of a celebrity looking for love on TV. While the premise seems interesting, viewers have criticized the idea on social media each time rumors of a celebrity lead have swirled. The sentiment alone should be enough to keep <em>The Golden Bachelor</em> and <em>The Golden Bachelorette</em> stars ordinary people.</p>

<p id=”par-7_54″>We’ll just have to wait and see. <em>The Golden Bachelorette</em> season 2 is likely more than a year and a half away if it ever happens. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-golden-bachelor-season-2-filming-dates-revealed.html/”>Season 2 of <em>The Golden Bachelor</em> </a>appears to be still casting contestants for a summer filming schedule. Fans can likely expect the competition to premiere in September 2025.</p>
