We have a lead in Matt James who was not a part of Bachelor Nation prior to coming on this season, and there\u2019s a historical element courtesy of him being the first Black bachelor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want more discussion on the most-recent finale for\u00a0<em>The Bachelorette?\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Then be sure to watch the latest that we\u2019ve got at the bottom of this article! Once you check that out, remember to <strong><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/cartermatttv\/\">subscribe<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>to Matt &amp; Jess on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a> and then also view our <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RObZEFZuL94&amp;t=2s\">playlist<\/a>. That\u2019s where we will have more coverage for the remainder of the season.<\/p>\n<p>While having Matt be the first Black male lead of the franchise is exciting, he admits that there is a certain weight and responsibility that comes with it. In the video below from the premiere, you can see him talking with host Chris Harrison about it. He comes from a mixed background, and feels that he wants to do right by all parts of who he is. He wants to find love for himself, but also make choices that are clear and understandable.<\/p>\n<p>We understand fully how Matt\u2019s journey will be unlike any other that we\u2019ve seen on the show in some time. Because he is different than most of the leads from the past decade, he\u2019s prone to getting hit with <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>izations or judgments from people who don\u2019t really know him. That\u2019s why we hope that show spends a lot of time in the early going really allowing us into Matt\u2019s head and letting us know more about him. We don\u2019t have any set expectations at all just because, honestly, we don\u2019t know him. Originally he was supposed to be a part of Clare\/Tayshia\u2019s season, but that changed over time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Be sure to get some more news when it comes to The Bachelor<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_intrigues_you_the_most_about_Matt_James_being_the_star_of_The_Bachelor_in_2021\"><\/span>What intrigues you the most about Matt James being the star of\u00a0<em>The Bachelor\u00a0<\/em>in 2021?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Be sure to share right now in the attached comments.
