ABC has released photos and bios of the 32 women vying for the heart of tennis pro Joey this season — which premieres Monday, Jan. 22 at 8/7c — and it already looks like an interesting mix of personalities and occupations, ranging from a radiochemist to an aspiring actress to an NFL cheerleader with the Miami Dolphins. (Hope she likes tennis, too.) The most intriguing wrinkle here, though, is the fact that two of Joey’s ladies, realtor Allison and nurse Lauren, are actually sisters! Will they bring their sibling rivalry with them into the Bachelor mansion? Well, the producers sure hope so.
Joey first appeared last season on The Bachelorette, making it to the final two with Charity before being dumped in favor of eventual winner Dotun in August’s season finale. (Read our finale recap here.) The 28-year-old Joey quickly became a fan favorite, though, so it was no surprise when he was announced as the next star of The Bachelor.
ABC has released a video that introduces the ladies as well, which you can watch above. Read on to get to know Joey’s contestants, including some fun facts about each of them, and then hit the comments below and share those snap judgments with us. Who’s your early pick to take home the final rose?
Allison
Age: 26

Occupation: Account executive
Fun fact: She loves college football and Coldplay — which are two great tastes that taste great together.
Chandler
Age: 24
Hometown: New York
Occupation: Graphic designer
Fun fact: Really, we’re just stuck on the fact that her name is Chandler, and she’s dating a guy named Joey. Could it be any more perfect?
Chrissa

Occupation: Marketing director
Fun fact: Her birthday is on Christmas, so that would save Joey some time buying presents.
Daisy
Age: 25

Edwina
Age: 25
Hometown: Atlanta
Occupation: Entrepreneur

Erika
Age: 25
Hometown: North Bergen, New Jersey
Occupation: Leasing agent

Fun fact: She really wants to go on a lunch date with Joey’s ex Charity… which might be kind of awkward for Joey.
Jenn

Fun fact: She likes making thoughtful gifts for her partner, so we’re expecting big things when she gets out of the limo.
Kelsey T.
Age: 31
Hometown: Los Angeles
Occupation: Actor
Fun fact: We’re just amazed that ABC allowed a self-described actor on this show! They usually want contestants to keep their showbiz ambitions under wraps. (Even though they all have them.)

Lauren
Age: 28

Lea
Age: 23
Hometown: Waipahu, Hawaii
Occupation: Account manager
Fun fact: She’s from Hawaii, just like Joey, and they already met on “After the Final Rose,” so she’s already two steps ahead of the pack.
Lexi

Marlena
Age: 26
Hometown: West Palm Beach, Florida
Occupation: Finance writer
Fun fact: She can’t wait to enter her soccer mom era. Or her tennis mom era, perhaps?
Nat
Age: 26
Hometown: Sudbury, Canada
Occupation: Registered nurse/professor
Fun fact: She tries to get at least 12 hours of sleep a night. Will she even be awake to go on a group date?
Rachel
Age: 26

Samantha
Age: 25
