Billy Eichner Jokes About Colton Underwood Being “The First Gay Bachelor”

This week’s episode of The Bachelor was full of everything we love — Colton Underwood, football, and of course, comedian Billy Eichner.

The hilarious actor stopped by to visit the leading man during his group date, and of course had to ask him a few invasive questions.

Billy asked the 26-year-old if he had ever had a one-night stand, to which Colton obviously said no (because he’s a virgin, remember!).

“No, they’re fantastic,” Billy responded.

Then, when Colton explained why he’s still a virgin, Billy quipped back, “Fine, you get an award.”

Colton also asked Billy what he looks for in a partner, which then turned into the comic poking a little fun at the former football star.

“I’m gay — I know that’s a shock, Colton,” Billy said.

“That I think you should look into. Maybe you’re the first gay Bachelor and we don’t even know. Put that in your promo.”

Fans thought Billy’s jokes were pretty funny and they shared their opinions about The Lion King star’s Bachelor appearance on Twitter.

“I would watch three hours of @billyeichner just screaming at @colton,” one person wrote.

“I feel like they brought Billy Eichner on just in case Colton had ANOTHER secret to let us know,” somebody else added.

However, some fans noticed that the girls on the group date didn’t seem to know who Billy was!

“Literally nobody was excited enough that @billyeichner showed up to be the camp counselor,” somebody wrote.

“These women seem totally taken aback that Billy Eichner is on their date. And by taken aback, I mean, they don’t have a fucking clue who he is,” Reality Steve wrote.

Even former Bachelorette star Evan Bass said, “THE GIRLS TEPID RESPONSE TO BILLY EICHNER IS ALL I NEED TO KNOW SEND THEM ALL HOME IMMEDIATELY.”
