The Bachelorette

'Bachelorette' contestant Leandro Dottavio says former 'Bachelor' contestant Bekah Martinez should have done some research before publicly accusing him of sexually harassing women more than a decade ago ... when he was in college.

We got Leandro out in Encino Friday, and asked him about Bekah posting a bunch of screenshots alleging he behaved inappropriately with several women. The claims are numerous and pretty sordid -- Leandro ran through them with TooFab.

As for the allegation he sent unsolicited d**k pics -- Leandro says it's a flat-out lie, and he has a theory on Bekah's motives.

The guy who said Colton Underwood was "acting like a pussy" despite never being in one on 'The Bachelorette: Men Tell All' says an apology is warranted ... FROM Colton!

We spoke to Jean Blanc -- one of Becca Kufrin's suitors this season -- a day after his fiery exchange with Colton aired, and he burned Colton over being a virgin. It WAS a harsh zinger, but it also stole the show.

Jean Blanc, who released his own fragrance Toujours Rose, tells us that's not exactly what happened in the studio, and thinks he's the victim of editing. He claims Colton fired the first shot, calling HIM the p-word, but producers cut that out. So, the final edit made it look like Jean Blanc took a cheap shot.

Even though much of Bach nation thinks JB went too far -- especially after Colton cried about bullying -- he insists Colton needs to say sorry.

'Bachelorette' star Becca Kufrin went from a great hair day to a bad one after a few rides at the Happiest Place on Earth.

Becca and a gal pal got the royal treatment at Disneyland Wednesday cruising around with a park guide, which means they likely didn't have to wait in line. Plus, she's on ABC which is owned by Disney ... so, yeah ... instant FastPass.

Becca showed up with a perfectly blown-out coif, but it was no match for the Radiator Springs Racers and Incredicoaster.

7/24 -- A rep for Sunset Studios tells us, "Sunset Studios Entertainment is aware of the allegations recently made by Mr. Brian Chad Johnson and is actively conducting an internal investigation into the matter. At this time, Sunset is not aware of any act or acts by any employee, officer, or otherwise which they believe rise to the level of the alleged misconduct."

They continue, "Sunset is an equal opportunity employer embracing enrichment through diversity and has a zero tolerance policy for discrimination, sexual misconduct, sexual harassment and abuse in the workplace and condemns all acts of sexual abuse."

Chad Johnson -- best known as the villain on JoJo's season of "The Bachelorette" -- was breaking into the movie biz, but he claims he got screwed over by a producer because he wouldn't screw her.

Chad, who's also a "Bachelor in Paradise" alum, claims a producer with Sunset Studios named Christina Cimino reached out to him via Instagram in March, and told him she could help him land movie roles.

According to the docs ... she used her power to lure Chad into several in-person meetings, phone calls and thousands of texts, which he says became "progressively more sexual and provocative."

Chad claims he wanted to keep things professional and made this known to Cimino, and she originally obliged by offering him gigs in 2 movies -- for an $11 million payday.

However, in the suit he says it was just a scheme to "exert control over" him and once he insisted he didn't want to get sexual or romantic with her ... she pulled the movie roles.

There's more -- Chad says during her pursuit of him, Cimino sent racy text messages, including one that read ... "Hey wanna come over later? Clothing is optional, nakedness is preferable." He says she later claimed the text wasn't meant for him.

He says Cimino once texted him claiming they made out, and he grabbed her butt -- but in the suit, Chad says it didn't go down like that at all. He says she was the aggressor and assaulted him.

Recently dumped 'Bachelorette' star Colton Underwood is shooting down Corinne Olympios' claim that he lied about his virginity, because he says he'd never admit it on national television if it weren't true.

Colton was a guest Tuesday on San Diego morning radio talk show 'Kramer & Geena,' where he was blindsided by the accusation. Colton not only stuck to his guns, but fired back, saying Corinne has no idea what she's talking about when it comes to the remaining bachelors since she said they "all suck." Colton says they're actually 4 stand-up guys.

Corinne told us Monday that she believes Colton, an ex-San Diego Charger, lied through his teeth for attention, but it ended up backfiring since he got the boot on Monday night's episode.

Corinne Olympios isn't buying what Colton Underwood is selling on this season of "The Bachelorette" -- insisting the ex-football player's already swiped his V card.

The villain from Nick Viall's 'Bachelor' season was in Venice on Monday when she weighed in on Colton confessing to Becca Kufrin that he's a virgin. He still got a rose, but Corinne thinks Becca got taken.

First off, she says Colton's too hot to still have unwrapped goodies. She also says his so-called confession is one guys use all the time for sympathy. That said, she thinks it's hurting him more than helping. He did get eliminated on this week's episode, so ... Corinne might've had a point.

As for whether the jock has what it takes to be the next 'Bachelor' ... Corinne scoffs and takes a shot at all of Becca's suitors this season. Bitter ... table for one?

Here's a bombshell revelation from "The Bachelorette" ... the guy who had a cup of coffee with a couple of NFL teams says he's still a virgin -- and blames football.

Colton Underwood -- a former tight end who spent some time on practice squads with the Chargers, Raiders and Eagles -- decided to share his secret with Becca on Monday night's episode.

It did not go great ...

"I haven't had that many girlfriends or that many dates because of sports," Colton said ... "I spent a lot of time working on football Colton and I sorta forgot who personal Colton is."

"And because of that I still am, I am a virgin," the 26-year-old admitted.

So, how'd Becca handle the news? She wasn't thrilled ... and excused herself from their dinner date to think about if she wants to spend the rest of her life with a guy who still has a V card.

Spoiler Alert: Colton got a rose anyway ...

Connor Obrochta from "The Bachelorette" wants his fellow contestant Lincoln Adim's attention ... so he can tell him to stay the hell away from Becca Kufrin and the rest of her suitors when they reunite for the 'Tell All' episode.

We spoke to Connor and it's crystal clear the fitness coach from Florida was never a fan of Lincoln (they had a spat early in the season) and especially now that Lincoln's dark past has surfaced.

As we reported ... Lincoln was charged with indecent assault and battery a week before the premiere, after allegedly groping a woman's breasts and grinding up on her aboard a ship.

Connor says hearing about Lincoln's dirty laundry rubbed him the wrong way. Check it out ... Connor says Lincoln's gonna get his ass handed to him if he decides to show up to the 'Tell All' episode, which hasn't filmed yet.

JoJo Fletcher's runner-up on her season of "The Bachelorette" can't figure out how Lincoln Adim got on the show, because the screening process probes for past crimes.

We got Robby Hayes Wednesday in Venice and asked if 'Bachelorette' producers need to do better background checks on their contestants ... in light of the fact Adim's sex crime arrest 2 years ago didn't raise any flags.

As we reported ... Adim had been convicted of and sentenced for indecent assault and battery days before Becca Kufrin's season premiered in May. He'd been accused of groping and grinding on a woman during a 2016 cruise. He must now register as a sex offender.

Robby is dumbfounded on how Lincoln slipped through the cracks. He's been through the process, and told us the pointed questions every contestant has to answer ... including the ones about arrests. He says Becca deserved to know about Lincoln and producers need to tighten up the background checks.

'Bachelorette' contestant Lincoln Adim pulled the wool over the eyes of producers during background checks for the show ... according to Warner Bros.

The studio behind the reality show just released a statement about Adim, who, as we reported earlier, was convicted last month of indecent assault and battery on a woman. However, he'd been arrested for the incident way back in May 2016.

WB says, "No one on the 'Bachelorette' production had any knowledge about the incident or charges when Lincoln Adim was cast, and he himself denied ever having engaged in or been charged with any sexual misconduct."

The statement continues, "We employ a well- respected and highly experienced third party who has done thousands of background checks consistent with industry standards to do a nationwide background check in this case. The report we received did not reference any incident or charge relating to the recent conviction - or any other charges relating to sexual misconduct."

"We are currently investigating why the report did not contain this information."

1:36 PM PT -- A law enforcement source tells us ... during the alleged incident, Lincoln grabbed the woman's hands and placed them on his own chest and stomach. We're told he then allegedly groped her breasts and grinded up on the woman. It all happened on a ship called Spirit of Boston.

A contestant on the new season of "The Bachelorette" -- who's still in contention -- became a convicted criminal charged with a sex crime just a week before the premiere.

Law enforcement sources in Suffolk County, NY tell TMZ Lincoln Adim was convicted of indecent assault and battery on May 21 from an incident that occurred in 2016. Adim was accused of groping and assaulting a woman on a cruise that year.

Crazy enough, his sentence was handed down right before the new season aired on May 28. Adim was sentenced to a year behind bars, with that term being suspended for a two-year probationary period. He also has to stay away from the victim, and attend 3 AA meetings per week for those 2 years.

If he doesn't comply with the judge's terms, he'd have to serve out a year in jail. If he does ... he can avoid that. Oh, and he's also expected to register as a sex offender.

'Bachelorette' contestant Garrett -- the suitor who got Becca's first impression rose on Monday's season premiere -- is the latest to jump on the apology train this week ... in his case, for liking bigoted memes.

Garrett Yrigoyen spoke up Thursday evening after coming under fire when it was discovered he liked Instagram posts mocking transgender people, Parkland shooting survivors and immigrants ... then deleting his account.

Garrett owned up to it -- via a new Instagram account -- saying ... "I am sorry to those who I offended, and I also take full responsibility for my ‘likes’ on Instagram that were hurtful and offensive."

He also explains why he started a new account, adding ... "I decided to take it down and start fresh because I have learned an extremely valuable lesson and am taking steps to grow, become more educated, and be a better version of myself. I am not perfect, and I will never be anywhere close, but now I will always be more informed and aware of what I am liking and supporting, not just on Instagram, but in life.”

'Bachelorette' star Becca Kufrin happily smiled and posed for cameras in NYC, and appeared unfazed by our guy asking how she feels about her leading guy liking hateful memes on social media.

We got Becca leaving an event Tuesday, and a throng of fans and photogs snapped shots of her before she bolted. We tried to ask her about Garrett Yrigoyen -- the suitor who got Becca's first impression rose on Monday's season premiere, but who's also come under fire for allegedly liking Instagram posts mocking transgender people, Parkland shooting survivors and immigrants.

Garrett, who also appears to be the guy Becca picks in the finale, deleted his Instagram account after the posts were published on several blogs.

If Becca's concerned, she's not showing it in public.

Chris Harrison is back to matchmaking tonight ... but luckily for him, these eligible men already know how to put on a show!

Becca Kufrin's upcoming season of "The Bachelorette" hasn't aired yet, but the show filmed what looks like a finale a couple weeks ago ... and TMZ's got pics from the scene.

Becca's already revealed she's currently engaged to one of this season's contestants ... but it's unknown which one. That's where these photos come in ...

Becca can clearly be seen kissing a man in a suit at the Shangri-La's Resort in the Maldives -- possibly her new fiance -- while filming at the location on May 10. We're told there was a big cheer, hugging and group photos taken after what appeared to be a proposal.

Our sources also say the crew held a party for the couple the next day at the resort.

The only question now ... who's the lucky guy? A quick glance at the cast for the upcoming season offers some ideas ... but it's hard to pin down.

'Bachelor' stars Arie Luyendyk Jr. and Lauren Burnham have been together long enough they're now answering questions almost exactly the same ... call it creepy cute.

We got Arie and Lauren on Wednesday leaving "The View" in NYC where they posed for pics with fans. Our guy asked the million dollar question -- will they watch Becca Kufrin's upcoming 'Bachelorette' season?

You'll recall Arie became public enemy No. 1 after blindsiding Becca and dumping her for Lauren ... in the cringeworthy 'Bachelor' finale. Watch ... Arie and Lauren were either coached on how to answer, or they're just starting to talk alike.

Btw ... Arie and Lauren are tying the knot Jan. 12 in Hawaii, a full year after meeting on 'Bachelor.' They made the announcement 5 days before Becca's premiere.
