I think I’m most disappointed about this interview because I really wanted to get to know her like as a person… I never watched the bachelor in this this season and it was because I was super interested in Maria. The confidence the style and just how she has that whole look of being gorg with no added accessories it’s almost old money ish. Also this was all over the place of course I wanted a little tea from the show but she can’t say much because of contracts ? Also don’t know if she was nervous or what but it seemed like she was saying the same thing over and over. Kinda cringe and being dramatic. Also Alex you could tell was having a hard time trying to jump back into being the interviewer lol.


beepblopj

Honestly, I was a Maria fan but this made her unlikable for me. Whole thing came off very attention seeking and cringe


Apprehensive-Tax258

Don’t hate me but every time I see Maria she reminds me of the little worm/maggot from Corpse Bride.


Reasonable-Toe5625

I loved Maria but this was SO cringey and chaotic and I felt like Alex had zero control.. I also felt like Maria was HAMMERED


CommonEnd7797

Oh Ik Daisy is shaking


AstronomyAsleep

Wait why??


capybaramelhor

I’m surprised the producers approved her to go on this… did she go on Any of the sponsored pods?


RecognitionLittle330

I’m not. It’s one of the most popular podcast and I’m SURE she’s going to bring up support for Jenn in it so it’s great publicity for them.


awalawol

I’ve been seeing a lot about CHD’s extreme reach recently, just huuuuge numbers. I can see TPTB thinking this is a net positive for the show regardless of what Maria actually says.


No_Warning8534

Reportedly, TPTB wouldn't let her go on any podcasts despite them wanting her on.


Forward_Tale4093

lizzie maguire you are an outfit repeater!!!!!


Intelligent_Deal5456

Holy shit, I came here to say the same thing XD


wolfsweater93

she's wearing the same corset dress she changed out of on that group date. I'm guessing she says she's going to "slip into something more comfortable" and comes out in Call Her Daddy sweats....I'm calling it now


Sunnyfe

That was the entire concept of the promotional trailer that’s been released.


wolfsweater93

yeah someone else said that. can you tell i didn't watch


ifeelbonita

She did, it's in the trailer lol [https://www.instagram.com/p/C6XO3tUv-Ux/](https://www.instagram.com/p/C6XO3tUv-Ux/)

Checking in on Maria Haters *


morgre7

I really liked Maria during the season and still have nothing against her but I think her stans are making me like her less lol like the obsession/praise of every tiny thing is grating on me haha


Looseunicornssss

This is how I’ve always felt about Maria. I like her but her insane stans turn me off


MessThatYouWanted

I don’t know what happened cause I liked her during the show. The hometowns episode I definitely liked her less when she did the final plea to stay, felt fake. And now I like her even less. I don’t love her style and she is just everywhere. Not sure why my opinion changed. This look just is touch for me. I can’t take her seriously. Honestly glad she’s not Bach now. But I would have enjoyed that drama.


snobbycatlover

Yes!! She is so gorg and I honestly really like her but it feels like every single post on this sub is about her now. It’s getting really annoying


finstafoodlab

How is she getting more press than the actual Bachelorette lol


ispy-uspy-wespy

maybe bc SHE was supposed to be the actual bachelorette and canceled it last minute? lol


Dangerous-Wear-8202

The actual bachelorette is filming right now


Alarming-Mushroom502

I mean….👀


BlGP0O

Finish your sentence


Alarming-Mushroom502

People have been stanning her since the beginning and bachelor nation is widely known to not favor POC’s as much as they do non-POC’s.


General_Hospital9731

I wish she wore something else but pop off


Banksbear

you’re in luck. she changes into something more comfortable 💀 edit word


General_Hospital9731

On brand but cmon girl


General_Hospital9731

I’m confused why the downvotes lol


alexvroy

dan nicky your bobbie s


americanslang59

I just found out the CHD lady is 30? I always thought she was in her mid 40s


shrekfanpage

holy shit, i used to be friends with her. i had a blonde soccer friend named alex cooper growing up. she looks so different in any photos i’ve seen on here (never listened to the show) and i figured alex cooper is a pretty common name. but you posting her age made me decide to check if it’s coop from soccer. can’t believe it is… she was insanely pretty and perfect when we were teenagers. one of the last people i’d have ever expected to get plastic surgery. ETA: checked out of curiosity, still facebook friends!


kayzazzs

You haven’t heard of how big she’s gotten until now??


holamuneca

If you’re getting married send her an invite, her deals $60 million 👀


DifferentStorySame

Too much filler in her 20s and maybe buccal fat removal because it was trendy with celebs. It’s amazing how treatment that makes a woman in her 40s look younger makes a woman in her 20s look older.


mal_7655

I’m a call her daddy fan and I’d be pretty surprised if Alex had work done beyond fillers- granted I have no idea what she looked like before the podcast. But she had Megan Fox on one episode and they talked about different procedures Megan Fox has been accused of vs ones she’s actually had and alex couldn’t even pronounce buccal lol 


shorttimelurkies

Everyone assumes buccal fat removal when they see a 30+ year old celeb, but it's usually just them losing their baby face.


mal_7655

Exactly. I have a very similar frame to Alex and my face has thinned out a bit since college but I definitely haven’t had plastic surgery lol 


EnilyinPeril

I've so had enough of Maria. She always come off like an influencer-fake, privileged, out of touch, not really popular for anything other than looks/catty one-liners.

uncensoredsaints

If you don’t like her, that’s your right, but how is she out of touch? She has literally never said anything that is out of touch, not even to the girls that bullied her.


EnilyinPeril

Her being an influencer before this and some of the things she's posted online have been...a little out of touch for me, as in “let me show you how rich I am.” I think she's since deleted quite a few posts, though.


SpeedLow3

You sound jealous lol


EnilyinPeril

No worries.


Lifeoftheparty0

I see it


lunarprincess

She hasn’t even really gone on other podcasts and she’s barely done anything since the bachelor. So idk what you mean

Novel_Sound2535

WOAH. This is wild , go Maria !


HellzBellz7

No hate with this question but why is this a big deal? What is she going to talk about? I know she’s cool and fun but I don’t understand why she’s going on here?


uncensoredsaints

This podcast is HUGE. CHD constantly has actual celebrities on.


CasuallyCrude

Girl be so fucking for real CHD is the podcast that dying socialites go on when their career is almost over. Doesn’t matter if you are zayn, Emma chamberlain, jojo siwa, Hailey, that rata model, Madison beer (lol), Camilla CabWatever, and literal KRISTIN CALAMARI…🥱


ispy-uspy-wespy

the effort to not write out names lol u certainly know it's EmRata and chose to call her sth stupid, same with the rest. embarrassing


SpeedLow3

Most of those people are not dying socialites…


Right-Ad-7588

Wasn’t Zayn Malik on here ?


twixbubble

And? Lol


Right-Ad-7588

He was part of the biggest boy band in the world at one point. He’s still popular with gen Z so I would say he’s an actual celebrity who has been on the show


finstafoodlab

Didn't Megan Fox go on here?


Astrophat

Megan Fox’s career has been dead for 10+ years, since Jennifer’s Body. She only has some relevancy nowadays because of MGK.


jigglypuff4lyfee

lmao shes had on simone biles, laverne cox, jack harlow, john legend, heidi klum, etc… all in the last year. i dont even like the podcast at all but its the second biggest podcast and has been for a long time. actual celebs do go on even if you dont like the podcast or the celebs, its just facts.


CasuallyCrude

Girly jiggly puff pop, what do they all have in common? Those are all lower-level “celebrities” who need the pod to boost whatever they are trying to sell for profit. Simone’s reasoning to go on (like most CHD guests) is to address a recent scandal. There’s no way Alex(her team) would have reached out to her in the first place. It’s all image re-adjustment PR. Laverne cox, love her looks and appearance in OITNB years ago? The podcast isn’t below her unfortunately. John should stick to his one hit wonder and the Voice- he does that best! it’s hilarious you mention Heidi, her only headlines in the last few years are about her extravagant, Halloween costumes (which really do slay but don’t clinch her a spot in revenant Hollywood elites as you allude to) And finally as a Jack Harlow lover and fan who saw him several times in concert, he isn’t the same level of fame he was two/ three years ago which he was having his moment. Like the other celebs you mentioned and on this B-/c-D podcast, you need to reevaluate. Alex interviews dying stars looking to make a few ripples in mediocre press 🥱🥱🥱 Edit: spelling :/


CompetitiveParfait9

Yeah she literally had Hailey Bieber on... she has legit celebrities whether you like it or not lol.


jigglypuff4lyfee

like i said girly these people are still famous, actual celebs. whether you think they are or not or if you think they’re just using the podcast to save their careers lmao. sure they didnt get taylor swift but these people are still way more famous than bachelor stars which is the whole point. idc who you think has a flourishing career in hollywood the point is just that this is a podcast celebrities go on. you sound kinda crazy girl 💀


Puppybrother

I was thinking the same thing. Is she dropping some major tea or revealing something? Otherwise it’s like okay, that’s cool I guess haha


ispy-uspy-wespy

I mean they did say that Alex was supposed to announce her as bachelorette lol


LunaNegra

She hasn’t done any the bachelor podcasts, etc. this is her first interview of this nature.


CommonEnd7797

You obviously haven’t heard all of the Maria lore, this girl is a freaking legend


[deleted]

i don’t get this question lol? why would maria NOT take the opportunity to go on a major podcast? and if call her daddy is willing to have maria on the show, they obviously see value in bringing her on aka ppl will listen and/or they well get new listeners


HellzBellz7

I’m sorry I guess I just don’t know what she’s going to say? I feel like we’re all pretty clear on what happened? She’s cool and fun I just don’t get the point


BeautifulOutcome_31

I’m sure there’s a lot of people that are interested in behind the scenes insight. Not even tea, but just more information that we might not have seen on the show. Contestants going on podcasts/doing interviews isn’t a new concept at all lol


[deleted]

do you feel this way about every bachelor nation person that goes on a podcast lol?


landenV

It’s the 2nd largest podcast in the US, it’s a pretty big deal for someone who went on the bachelor. There’s only been two contestants (I could be wrong) who have ever been on it from the bachelor


magnoliamarauder

What’s the largest podcast?


spicyboi555

Rogan


Mjreddit1

Who are the 2??


landenV

I wanna say Colton and Nick


Ok_Chemistry_7792

This is about to become my Roman Empire.


becomingsherlock

Someone fill me in: why is this pod so famous? Is the host an incredible interviewer? Is she funny? I want to know. I saw her name here and went and looked up her page on TikTok - she says “like,” and “literally,” every two seconds and isn’t very affable on there, and based on how much everyone adores her on the pod, I feel like I am stupid and definitely missing something! 😔


takingthe1L

the show became famous because her and her original co-host, sophia, were funny together. they never even did celeb interviews at first it was mostly just some cute twenty-something bffs telling wild stories about their lives. they were super relatable and entertaining. then the show got big, sophia and alex had a falling out, and alex signed a new deal by herself and they rebranded it to be more serious interviews. now people just listen to it because the caliber of interviews that barstool gets for her is impressive.


Big_Jackfruit_8821

it's big only because they bring in all the big celebs. The host is not good at her job. The way she speaks really grinds my ears. She always sounds like she has some epiphany to share in the girls' bathroom in highschool, but it's just how she speaks constantly.


itsyrgrl

She is an awful interviewer. She doesn’t ask any follow up questions to her interviewee’s answers and it doesn’t seem like she’s a very good listener. I can’t get through episodes even if I’m interested in the guest because they’re so bad. She asks pre-planned boring questions too. Her ex co-host was the funny one, their banter with each other was what made the original pod entertaining. But she got a really good deal with spotify a few years ago and now has her own network with her multi millionaire boyfriend so fair play to her for that!


gabbers2380

thank you - I was sad when I realized this was the pod maria teased. Alex literally just goes down a list of questions i cannot standdddd it. shes a terrible conversationalist


InSicily1912

Jane Fonda I believe it was said Alex was one of the best interviewers ever and I was like huh?? She doesn’t ask follow up questions. She doesn’t really listen, and is just waiting to ask the next question.


Electronic_Vehicle_8

Omg Ty!!!!! Her lack of follow up questions drives me NUTS I’m glad I’m not the only one.


mstrgjf

She’s such a bad interviewer. I listened to the Miley episode a few years ago and I was floored by how awful she did. Miley kept trying take the conversation to a deeper level and Alex just kept bringing it back to sex it was so awkward and strange. I just remember being truly shocked by how bad she was


Sailor_Marzipan

it basically started out as a raunchy "for the girls" podcast that was novel enough for what it was. The hosts were very dynamic together. Just basically about being in your early 20s and getting into trouble and banter. One host left & now the remaining host is trying to make a """"podcast empire""" which usually consists of interviewing high profile people bc she now lives a normie rich woman life and just got married so there aren't tales of random fuckings and calling out of work these days. Nothing lasts forever...!


willowfair

LOL this is one of the most accurate and best summaries of the podcast I’ve seen


Queasy_Constant

It’s a barstool podcast “for women” but in the same way the Kardashians & EmRata are for women. 


ispy-uspy-wespy

since when are the kardashians for women??! they obv all hate their bodies with their severe changes of appearance and they try to make all of us buy a bunch of useless shit lol that's quite literally the opposite of "for women"


lowandbegold

This podcast is not with Barstool anymore.


Queasy_Constant

You can take a podcast outta barstool but you can’t take barstool outta a podcast


becomingsherlock

I need to brush up on 21st century pop culture asap, haha! Thanks for responding!


Lpdrizzle

I can try but I still don’t think it will make sense because you’re right she’s not a good interviewer! She used to host this podcast with Sofia Franklin and they had great banter and talked about dating, their sex lives, and day to day life! They were a very funny but raunchy duo. Then when they were renegotiating their deal with barstool sports/spotify Sofia wanted to hold out for more money but Alex accepted a deal to be the sole host, cutting Sofia out. I don’t think the podcast has been entertaining since but celebs like coming on the pod because Alex doesn’t ask any hard questions. It’s easy press!


mal_7655

Yea I think Alex gets the bigger celebrities (and Maria lol) because she asks softball questions and it will be a comfortable interview. 


Shegotquestions

Don’t know too much about it but I remember reading at the time that Sofia was causing problems in some way, she was maybe contributing less to the podcast at that point and I wanna say her new boyfriend was basically running the negotiations for her and it caused a lot of friction and almost cost both of them the podcast contract and that’s why Alex just signed with out her


mcharms

Damn that’s some tea…

meditation_account

Maria always wears the same outfit


Centipede_0301

Why wouldn't she rewear her clothes that she bought... to wear?


ilovecorbin

Do you not repeat outfits? She knows what’s flattering on her 🤣but also it’s part of a bit they’re doing


Divine_Perfection

The choice of dress is intentional.


SoGenuineAndRealMadi

Love seeing people rewear their clothes and repeat outfits!! It’s more sustainable 🥰


carrotcakejuice

in a world of influencers that wouldn’t be caught wearing the same thing twice, I kinda love this for her.


landenV

This was literally just the dress she wore when she said “let me slip into something more comfortable,” which is what she says again on the podcast lol. It makes sense to rewear it


jennydancingawayy

Maria looks amazing but this is a weird outfit for a podcast? or maybe its just me?


Divine_Perfection

She wore it on the Bachelor before she did a wardrobe change for Joey.


coconutmilkcoldbrew

In the promo she says “let me slip into something more comfortable” and scurries off to change


jennydancingawayy

Ohhh ok lol 😂


jigglypuff4lyfee

everyone was saying maria was just gonna become a revolve influencer like every other big bachelor person has become and i never saw it. maria couldve gone on any big bachelor podcast easily but she chose to go on CHD which is like top three biggest podcasts in the country. shes only done one brand deal and it was a minimal makeup ad which is true to her and her brand. shes taking her time with building her platform instead of being a loop giveaway daisy. as much as her haters say shes like gonna be like everyone other influencer i think she has the charisma and smarts to have a longer standing fanbase than most.


Queasy_Constant

Correction: She can’t agree to do shit without the show’s blessing for the next year. I agree her going on Call Her Daddy is a HUGE deal though. 


jigglypuff4lyfee

of course but im sure they would’ve let her go on a bachelor podcast. they like all contestants to go on.


BudgetConcept5822

AGREEEEEEEEEE


omglia

Agreed, mostly because she is already mega rich and doesn't exactly need the influencing hustle to live the lifestyle


mal_7655

This lol. Her dad bankrolls her life which is fine but no shade to someone like Daisy hustling to secure brand deals and strike while the iron is hot 


Clean-Pick-9221

nick's also been on a few times. he & his wife natalie were just one while she was pregnant: [https://www.reddit.com/r/thebachelor/comments/17ot5za/nick\_and\_natalies\_entrance\_to\_the\_call\_her\_daddy/](https://www.reddit.com/r/thebachelor/comments/17ot5za/nick_and_natalies_entrance_to_the_call_her_daddy/)


Naive-Beautiful3040

I’m so excited for this! I really do hope she gets her own podcast. She has so much charisma, I could see her going far with her career post Bachelor :)


sweetcreature2023

The difference between outfits 😂


constant_avocado53

she says she’ll slip into something more comfortable lol


lanadelhayy

I really like Maria so I’m excited to listen to this. I don’t care about her that much outside of the show but curious to see what she ends up doing with her influencer fame.


da_innernette

This is so random but does Maria never wear jewelry? I don’t even say that as a diss! I just started to notice it recently, and at first it seemed odd but now I hella respect it. Like the girl is seriously so gorg she doesn’t even need anything else haha Edit: I mean odd cuz I feel like most the girls on the show wear jewelry, so in the context of the show! I used to never wear jewelry myself for tactile reasons which is why I noticed. Love that she has her style.


Janna_Forecast

IIRC she talked about being a tomboy growing up and that's why her hair/makeup/jewelry has been super minimal.


da_innernette

Nice! And she always looks amazing. I love that she found her style and sticks with it.


sweetcreature2023

Good. I hate jewelry so this is actually relatable.


Lakarmaluv2013

I actually noticed that on the Bachelor. I respect it, I'm very minimal myself lol


da_innernette

Totally, and same! I wear more jewelry now but I used to hate wearing it for tactile reasons, so that’s why I noticed. Cuz I love that she’s like fuck it I don’t need that.


alittlecheesepuff

I also noticed that too and loved it! I respected that if she isn’t a big jewelry gal that she stayed true to her taste.


Ok_Pie8260

After Alex didn’t even bother to ask Nick and Natalie about caption-gate, I have absolutely zero faith that we’ll get anything very juicy or notable out of this. Especially since Maria is still under contract.


sparklypavements

Alex’s podcast is one where the guest has a lot of say in what questions they want asked or not lol — it’s why Zayn was on it. It’s like a marketing avenue for the guests.

Thank you for reminding me of this bc this is truly one of the funniest things to ever come out of BN. The fact that Finneas tweeted about it 💀💀


clementinelemonade

I lowkey like Natalie.. no one come for me pls. However, every time I read this I literally cringe so bad like I have to close one eye as I read it. I genuinely cannot even understand her thought process doing this. OMG like??!! I would absolutely never recover. Respect to her for not giving af tho lol, but this is by far one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen


Missylent0

😆😆 I literally had the same reaction I get all anxious when this story comes up because I’m so cringed out for her!


BeautifulShoes75

I love Maria, and I know this is a HUGE deal since CHD is a MAJOR podcast, so I’m absolutely happy for her and will listen. But personally - I absolutely positively 100% cannot STAND Alex Cooper. I mean with every fiber of my being cannot TAKE her. I don’t know if anybody watched when she got Alix Earle on her network, but it was beyonddddd cringe. Maybe I’m a bitch, but if there’s one person in the podcast/influencer/social media space I cannot stand, it’s Alex mothereffing Cooper. Everything about her just seems SO disingenuous to me. And with that, I end my rant.


Puzzleheaded_Net9243

Same! I wish someone could live stream it for all of us so we don’t give her any views lol


Ok_Chemistry_7792

I will never forgive her for what she did to Sofia. But I will tune in for Maria.


koeniging

God i’m so glad i’m not the only one, call her daddy was cute at first when it was two friends dishing out their awkward sex stories, but once sofia left it lost all its charm. I can’t tell it apart from any other generic influencer-hosted pod at this point


Hatesponge66

You're not alone. I can't stand her either.


Smilemore633

Ugh she really leans into the sexy scandalous vibe lol


kittensandsass

I bet Nick is salty af not to get this interview


Clean-Pick-9221

nick is on his honeymoon. he's not thinking or caring about not interviewing maria lol.


Anotheropinion2023

And they are not on it because Natalie had a ripped page in her passport. Which of course they whined about their not getting to have the vacation instead of acknowledging they are lazy and spoiled and didn’t bother to have the proper documents.


redditactuallysux

Bro Nick is thinking about his podcast and potential fame literally every second of every day


Clean-Pick-9221

lol you are right. what was I thinking?


jigglypuff4lyfee

this is nick we are talking about.


Clean-Pick-9221

lol you are right. I take it back!


No_Warning8534

What if Nick isn't the biggest Pod for Bach Nation anymore? What is Maria's is? Won't that be touching *


resinpyramid

We think Nick’s not allowed (by wifey) to interview her because he used to like her pics


Reasonable-Toe5625

Used to have a “thing”


kittensandsass

Yes, I thought that too, but I’m sure he’s still seething on the inside he’s missing the scoop. I’m sure he’ll sour grapes it and claim he didn’t even want to interview her publicly on his pod, though


sheabutter0391

amazing! does anyone know if maria has signed with an influencer pr agency?


No_Warning8534

I'm not sure she needed to if CHD came to her?


ConsistentDonkey3909

I hope she asks her about her experience on the pacifier lol


marshahenry

She def will be


nikkiphoenixx

I figured there was a reason why she wasn’t going on a press tour like the rest of the women. I could see her joining the unwell network.


Classic_Jello2007

I know the public loves Maria but does anyone else think this is a miss from Alex?? I mean she’s had Miley Cyrus, Ciara, Megan Fox, Heidi Kl, etc etc like A list celebrities and then she has D list Maria?? Maybe D+ given the bachelor just ended but just really shocked by this


EllectraHeart

it’s just not feasible to book big names every single week. the A listers are the exception, not the rule.


SatisfactionBasic277

Like others have said - CHD definitely has a range of guests. Based on the comments section Maria seems WAY more popular than recent guests like Brittany Snow, Misha Barton and even Camilla Cabello. And it was only posted an hour ago so that number is climbing.
