There’s already a front-runner for The Bachelor<\/em>: Mike Johnson<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Mike would be the franchise’s first black male lead\u2014Rachel Lindsay<\/a><\/strong> was the first black star of The Bachelorette<\/em>\u2014but season 24 is far from set in stone.<\/p>\n

“We’ve debated nonstop,” longtime host Chris Harrison<\/a><\/strong> told E! News, noting “everything effects the decision” from The Men Tell All<\/em> to Bachelor in Paradise<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“People have to realize it’s a debate,” the host said. “We’re always going at it. Obviously, Mike’s a contender coming out of tonight’s show. Everybody loves the guy and so do I. I mean, that million-dollar smile, his maturity, his looks, his charisma and charm, but we have three other guys on the show and we have a bunch of guys going down to Mexico in Paradise<\/em>. Give us time, the debate will rage on\u2026”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Meanwhile, Mike suggested Peter Weber<\/strong> would be a great star of the franchise.<\/p>\n

“If Hannah doesn’t choose Peter, I think Peter would be a great choice for Bachelor. I mean, the guy is pretty good looking, he speaks well, he’s 27 so I feel that he has some experience underneath his belt,” Mike told us. “As far as me? I’m grateful. I truly am grateful for even being in the question. But on a very serious note, I would need to make sure that all 30 contestants, if I were to be The Bachelor<\/em>, are there for the right reasons to find love.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Mike said it was amazing to get closure from Hannah Brown<\/a><\/strong>, and the star of The Bachelorette<\/em> season 15 certainly set the bar high for the next person to hand out roses and date on national TV.<\/p>\n

“Hannah has set a precedent for being your true self, your authentic self and for not giving a damn what people say around you or that there are cameras around you, you should be perfect\u2026What I learned from my experience on the show is that, yo, love can happen in a condensed amount of time based on the experienced that you go on with one another,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
