Matt James is not only the new Bachelor, but he is the FIRST BLACK BACHELOR EVER! We discuss Matt as well as diversity in the franchise in this special edition Bachelor after show.

Hosted by: Kelsey Meyer, Jeff Graham, Akilah Ffriend, and Rachel Swindler.

We’ve made it to the finale on Listen To Your Heart and the last tour stop? None other than Nashville, TN! As the three remaining couples find out there final song selections, trouble is brewing for Matt and Rudi. They ultimately decide to leave the competition, and only two couples remain; Jamie and Trevor and Chris and Bri. With the option of fantasy suite dates- Jamie and Trevor decide to take their relationship to the next level, while Chris and Bri decide to forgo the overnight date. On finale night we are joined by special guest judges Kaitlyn Bristowe, Jason Tartick, Rita Wilson, Jewel and Taye Diggs. Both couples performed two final songs but in the end Chris Watson and Bri Stauss were crowned the Listen To Your Heart Season 1 Champions! They sit down with the AfterBuzz Panel to discuss life on and off set!

We've made it to the semifinals and we've got special guest Brandon Mills in the house to chat about his dramatic elimination and what he's been up to since leaving the show! This week, the final four couples ditch the Bachelor mansion and head out for a road trip to Vegas. Rudi and Matt take a detour to work on their connection, but things don't go quite as planned when Matt admits he hasn't truly fallen for Rudi yet. Meanwhile, Jamie and Trevor finally reveal they're falling in love with each other! All four couples are assigned iconic ballads for their performances as guest judges Arie & Lauren Luynedyk, Ashley Simpson Ross & Evan Ross, and Train's Pat Monohan decide who makes it to the finals. In the end, Natasha and Ryan's risky rendition of Ed Sheeran and Beyoncés 'Perfect' falls flat and get them sent home.

This after show was hosted by Mike Thieling, Christine Alexis, and Rachel Swindler!

The competition is really starting to heat up - but is the love?  Chris Harrison isn't so sure, so he sends six of our singles out on dates with a twist - they're not going with their current partner but someone new, to explore and test out new possible relationships.  Rudi has a picnic with Chris.  Jamie goes on a spa day with Ryan.  But most importantly Julia heads out with Brandon to write and perform a song at The Roxy, where the two share a kiss.  When they come back to the mansion Julia immediately breaks things off with Sheridan who exits while Brandon tells Savanah that he had a connection with Julia but he's now all-in for her.  However, Savanah is having none of it, proclaiming that she doesn't want to be a choice and leaves the mansion, leaving Brandon and Julia a new team.  The five remaining couples get their songs for the week and end up performing in front of Bachelor Nation couple Rachel Lindsay and Bryan Abasolo, Toni Braxton and Bryan Abasolo.  In the end, the judges just weren't feeling the new pair of Brandon and Julia who are sent home.
