Now \u201cBachelor\u201d fans are demanding the Netflix \u201cdocumentary\u201d be canceled over claims Underwood \u201cstalked\u201d his final pick on the \u201cBachelor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/im-gay-former-bachelor-star-colton-underwood-comes-out-on-good-morning-america\">The Daily Wire<\/a>, Underwood came out as gay during an interview on \u201cGood Morning America,\u201d saying, \u201cI\u2019ve ran from myself for a long time. I\u2019ve hated myself for a long time \u2026 And I\u2019m gay. And I came to terms with that earlier this year and have been processing it. And the next step in all of this was sort of letting people know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m still nervous, but yeah,\u201d he added. \u201cIt\u2019s been a journey for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last week, <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2021\/tv\/news\/colton-underwood-netflix-reality-show-gay-the-bachelor-1234950986\/\">Variety<\/a> reported that Underwood would be the star of his own reality show on Netflix. The outlet reported that multiple sources said the series would be unscripted and consist of several episodes and described the show as centering around Underwood living as an openly gay man. Netflix did not comment to Variety about the project.<\/p>\n<p>The outlet reported that there is no confirmed date on when the series will be released, but \u201ca source close to production says Underwood is currently filming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rumors of the potential series led to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.change.org\/p\/netflix-cancel-colton-underwood-s-netflix-documentary\">petition<\/a> from Change.org calling on Netflix to cancel the \u201cdocumentary.\u201d The petition had received over 21,000 signatures by mid-day on Monday and listed a goal of 25,000 signatures.<\/p>\n<p>The petition states that Colton \u201cstalked his final pick, Cassie Randolph\u201d and alleges that he \u201cplaced a tracker on her car, sent her and her friends anonymous threatening texts, and was even seen standing outside her window extremely late in the night, resulting in her brother attempting to de-escalate the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The description of the petition concludes that \u201cCassie is a victim of Colton\u2019s abuse, and he does not deserve a platform in any way.\u201d The petition was not started in response to Underwood coming out as a gay man but rather was in response to his past behavior. The site explains, \u201cRegardless of his sexuality, Colton should not be given a platform as a result of his abusive, manipulative, and dangerous behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over the weekend, <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2021\/04\/cassie-randolph-partner-colton-underwood-speaks-on-social-media-1234737769\/\">Deadline<\/a> reported, \u201cAfter their split last year, Randolph filed a restraining order against Underwood, claiming he was stalking her. Randolph later had the restraining order lifted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/lance-bass-says-colton-underwood-may-face-backlash-for-monetizing-his-coming-out-after-scoring-netflix-deal\">The Daily Wire<\/a> on Sunday, actor\/singer Lance Bass spoke on \u201cThe Ben &#038; Ashley I Almost Famous Podcast,\u201d saying that a minority in the LGBTQ might not approve of how Underwood revealed his sexuality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis gay community is very diverse, but we can also be very fickle,\u201d Bass said, as reported by Deadline. \u201cHe\u2019s definitely gonna get a lot of backlash from the community at first. Not the majority, but there is a small percentage of the community that\u2019s just gonna not like the fact that he came out this way, that he\u2019s monetizing the experience. They don\u2019t think he deserves this attention and one of those reasons is, and this is what I experienced when I came out\u2026 when you first come out, most people have no clue about the LGBT community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey don\u2019t know what the issues are because they\u2019ve been so separated from that on purpose,\u201d he added. \u201cSo when someone comes out as a public figure, so many people immediately go, \u2018It\u2019s too late.\u2019 They don\u2019t like to support it because they don\u2019t feel like you know what you\u2019re talking about yet. But I don\u2019t think Colton is trying to lead that charge of trying to be the spokesperson for the LGBTQ community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
