Lamas Looking To Follow Father's Footsteps

Shayne Lamas 'The Bachelor: London Calling' wrapped up this week, and much to the surprise of some fans, Shayne Lamas emerged as the winner. She beat out her competition for Matt Grant's heart, but some believe she was out to find fame, not love.
Throughout this year's 'Bachelor', it was apparent at several times that Lamas was looking for the spotlight to be on her. Somehow, she convinced Grant that her motives were real and that she was looking for love. A love she claims she found.
Her father, actor Lorenzo Lamas, agrees with many fans of the
"She wants to be a good actress, but she wants to be a star more. This was her opportunity to be on television, right? I mean, come on," Lamas told Grant on the episode where the parents met 'The Bachelor'.
Now that the show has ended, there is more speculation that Shayne is just out for publicity. She has been on the cover of 'Girls Gone Wild' magazine, and her shoot inside is an attention getter. If the first move after the show is an indication, fans might have been right in calling her bluff.

Your article is very misleading. You conveniently neglected to add that Shayne's dad, Lorenzo Lamas, later in that episode clearly stated that he made those comments to see where her heart was at, and believed his daughter would have left if she were not there for Matt. He said that Shayne's comments that she was there only for Matt, were very telling. He later told his daughter to follow her heart.

way to use an old quote, out of context, to fabricate a current story.

Um... funny, in retrospect, given that Shayne and Matt broke up shortly after the show's end...

Here's the deal, I know Shayne PERSONALLY, I hang out with her at least 3 times a month, here goes, she literally WAS in love with Matt. Matt on the other hand was in Love with the camera, and instead of living life happily ever after, Matt was busy going after gig after gig after gig to keep himself in front of the camera, no matter WHAT the gig! Plus he didnt even have a penny to his name, he was and is completely FLAT BROKE! If he would go to dinner with Shayne and a bunch of friends, at pay time he would pull $11 out of his pocket and that was all he had for the week!
Matt was not who he was pretending to be.. |
