Bachelor no more

You're bound to get jealous stares when you announce you're dating a movie star.

But will you receive the same admiration when your date aspires to appear in the next installment of "Big Brother"?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

News about the romance between a former "Bachelor" contestant and a former "Bachelorette" contestant -- who met on a private Facebook page for the ABC reality series -- got me wondering if reality TV stars belong to their own dating breed.

There's something unique/alarming about a personality type that thrives on constant camera attention and manipulative editing.

Weigh in: Would you ever date someone who appeared -- or aspires to appear -- on a reality TV show?
