And, while each has his own appeal, one has the added bonus of being a multimillionaire.
Season 1 of “Joe Millionaire: For Richer or Poorer” started with 18 women.
What did Kurt and Steven think about the women’s motivations?
However, Kurt Sowers and Steven McBee agreed that didn’t seem to be the case.
The women weren’t even told that one of the bachelors was a millionaire until filming had already started.
So, they couldn’t have tried out for the show with that in mind.
“For the most part, I think we had a really, really good group of women.
“But I don’t think the money aspect really affected any of these women.”
“We see them for short spurts at a time; the conversations are limited.
Most of the time, their conversations are [interrupted] by other people and/or producers.
It was tough to get to know these ladies.”
“We’re having to eliminate them or make judgments about them.
And who knows if those judgments are even true?”
But it seemed like having each other there made those tough decisions a little easier for the men.
“It was for the better,” Kurt said.
“It allowed these women to choose instead of maybe having to fake a feeling for one man.
Giving them an option made it a lot more genuine.”
The two men also bonded quite quickly.
“It’s been the best relationship from the show Steven and I,” Kurt said.
Dating the same women introduced an element of friendly competition into their dynamic, however.
“At the end of the day, we’re on each other’s teams,” Kurt said.
But what if they’re both interested in the same woman?
“One of us would decide to step back,” he said.
