New“ Bachelor ”preview finds the women losing it over Grant: 'Is he real?' (exclusive)

   

I don't know about you, rose lovers, but it feels like we've gone years without any Bachelor franchise-related nonsense in our lives. (Somehow, though, it's only been 47 days.) And while season 29 starring Grant Ellis does not begin for about another month, Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive preview of The Bachelor, premiering Monday, Jan. 27 at 8 p.m. on ABC.

New 'The Bachelor' preview finds the women losing it over Grant (exclusive)

The new teaser features a variety of footage from Grant's "journey," including his night-one meet-cute with a woman who has him make a wish on a genie's lamp, and clips of several other hopefuls gushing over the 30-year-old day trader from Newark, New Jersey. "Where did y'all find this man?" shrieks one, while another marvels, "Is this real? Is he real?" Watch the full video above.

The swooning continues as Grant and his harem hit the road and start traveling the world. The preview gives us glimpses of the Bachelor's many make-out sessions: We see him smooching a woman in front of a fountain, locking lips with another in what looks like a gentle rain, canoodling with a third near a castle in Scotland (I'm assuming, based on his kilt), and slow-dance smooching with a fourth in a ballroom setting.

And fear not, rose lovers, the promo also includes the all-important OUTDOOR SHOWER SHOT:

Viewers first met Grant during Jenn Tran's season of The Bachelorette, where he was sent home just before hometown dates. "I want a family. I want to be happy. I want a life. I want to be in love," Grant said in his exit interview after he failed to get a rose. "I did not think that was going to happen tonight."

According to his ABC bio, Grant is a "self-proclaimed mama's boy" who can often be found cheering on the Lakers, hitting strikes at the bowling alley, or belting out tunes at karaoke nights. Indeed, as viewers saw in the first promo the network released for his season, Grant will be singing a lot on his upcoming season. Brace yourself accordingly, friends.
