He even revealed that one "The Bachelorette" 2016 contestant brought JoJo a wine and she did not back down in knocking it back.

Meanwhile, "The Bachelor" creator Mike Fleiss took to Twitter to talk about the guys who will vie for JoJo's love in "The Bachelorette" 2016. "Wild group of dudes. Some great ones for sure... Some seem to be a little too into JoJo," Fleiss tweeted out.

He also teased that one guy will be decked out with a unicorn mask, which JoJo also wore when she first met Ben Higgins in "The Bachelor" 2016. A first kiss happened on the first night too.
So many dudes with beards... JoJo is gonna break out the straight edge and shave one of these guys! #Bachelorette

JoJo was announced as the new bachelorette just last week. At that time, the TV community was already under the impression that Caila Quinn, who was one of the final four ladies in "The Bachelor" 2016, would be the new bachelorette.
However, ABC had an eleventh-hour change of plans and went with JoJo, who is deemed a fan favorite. Caila has allegedly filmed intro packages for the "The Bachelorette" 2016 but all that seems to have been scrapped.
Followers of the recently concluded Ben Higgins-led "The Bachelor" season know that JoJo was so close to getting engaged with the software salesman and was even told that by him that he loved her back.
Unfortunately for her, Ben chose Lauren Bushnell over her at the end of it all, leaving the real estate developer's heart smashed to smithereens.
While she failed to find love in "The Bachelor" 2016, it looks like JoJo is ready to go back out there to find "the one" in "The Bachelorette" 2016, which will premiere on May 23.
