Filming and development

Casting

Casting began during the airing of the eighth season of the show, in 2012. Before the bachelorette was chosen, one potential candidate, Misee Harris, a pediatric dentist from Tennessee, was vying to become the first black bachelorette.^[1] Her social media campaign was covered in a number of major news outlets, including The Huffington Post.^[2][3] According to the website Jezebel, Harris had previously been selected to be a contestant on The Bachelor, only to not take the role for fear of being the 'token' black woman.^[2] At that point every star in all 25 combined seasons of The Bachelorette or The Bachelor had been Caucasian, with show producer Mike Fleiss stating to the media that non-caucasians simply didn't appear at the casting calls.^[3] Announced late in 2012, the selected bachelorette was Desiree Hartsock (born 1986), a bridal stylist from Northglenn, Colorado.^[4] Like the bachelorettes in the previous seasons,^[1] Hartsock had been a contestant on The Bachelor, having been sent home by Sean Lowe after the hometown dates episode in season 17.^[4] Misee Harris went on to work as a model and entrepreneur, founding a line of mouthguards and starting Project Smile, an organization that "focuses on promoting self-esteem in children."^[3] A contestant from season 9, soccer player Juan Pablo Galavis, became the first non-Caucasian star for the combined franchises the following year, appearing in season 18 of The Bachelor.^[3]

Production

Filming began shortly after the season finale of The Bachelor, with many places including Atlantic City, New Jersey, the German state of Bavaria, Barcelona, Spain and the island of Madeira in Portugal. With appearances from Andy Grammer, Soulja Boy, Darius Rucker, Kate Earl and Matt White.^[5]
