‘Bachelorette’ Rachel Lindsay Just Clapped Back At This Racist Tweet In The Best Way Possible


If you’ve been watching The Bachelorette this season, you know that Rachel Lindsay isn’t into dealing with any kind of drama. And, if she spots it, she’s going to shut it down ASAP. Apparently that happens IRL, too, because she just clapped back at a former Bachelor contestant who made an insensitive comment on Twitter.

Here’s what happened: Leah Block, who competed for Ben Higgins’ heart on The Bachelor and season 3 of Bachelor in Paradise, decided it was a good idea to tweet this out, per E!, while watching Monday night’s episode of The Bachelorette: “I’m sitting here watching @BacheloretteABC and my roommate just sat down on the couch and said, ‘What is this? @LoveAndHipHop_?’ DEAD.” (In case you’re not familiar with it, Love Hip Hop is a VH1 reality show that has a largely black cast.) The tweet has since been deleted.
