Bachelor Pad TV show tests friendships, Sulidis says Continued from page 23 Get together for musical knowledge, networking The Entertainers Chorus, a male a cappella quartet that rehearses in Oakville, is hosting a get together with entertainment, networking opportunities and to provide some musical knowledge.

However, because they were on friendly terms, Sulidis said it was hard to vote anyone out of the show, and the fewer people that remained the tougher it became. "The show definitely tests friendships and relationships," she said. But she still keeps in touch with former contestants and there are reunions as well. Viewers also don't get to see the process involved before someone is able to get on the show. There are tests contestants have to take before they are approved for the show, such as: drug, STD and personality tests, therapist talks and background checks. She was also in a bit of a hot seat at the talk show-style The Men Tell All, but admits that was not enough to make it a negative experience. "It was a lot of fun," she said of the filming process. "The guys were great and supportive too, the guys helped me out a bit and then we all got to go out and hang out for a bit and have a few drinks. Now we're all friends." And because the show airs so long after it is filmed, Sulidis is able to have watch parties at home with her friends on Mondays Jessie Sulidis when the shows air. "It's funny because I pick up things that I didn't realize I did. My friends will make fun of me that I talk with my hands too much and I don't realize it until I watch myself on TV," she said. "My friends think it's hilarious. They're not really big watchers of the show but they watch it just because I've been on it. It's my mom's girlfriends that are big fans of the show and they just love it, they eat it up. They always want pictures, they want the insider information, it's funny." The new show will air at the usual Bachelor time slot of Mondays at 8 p.m.
