Pics Of Rachel's First Night As Bachelorette Are Here

I think it would be the coolest thing in the world to be the lead on The Bachelorette, but I would definitely be super nervous about it. There's a lot of pressure and high expectations that come with taking on that role, but the latest star seems to be doing just fine. Photos from night one of Rachel Lindsay's turn as the Bachelorette have been released and she doesn't look nervous at all.

Am I surprised? Yes and no. No, because it's Rachel. Yes, because I can't fathom how anyone could be so calm, cool, and collected in that scenario. Props to her. I haven't seen the episode yet and I'm sure Rachel had some nerves that night, but if a picture is worth a thousand words, these photos are telling me a lot.

Rachel was clearly ready to take on this season and looks like she enjoyed night one. Or maybe this is technically night 1B since she kind of had a first night during the live After the Final Rose special from last season's Bachelor. During the episode, Rachel got to meet four of her suitors when they surprised her with fake limo entrances.

From the looks of it, Rachel is probably going to kill it on night one. Now, I'm even more excited to watch the first episode of The Bachelorette.

She is so ready for this and so am I. The hair, dress, and makeup are on point. She's on another level and it looks like she will handle it all so perfectly.

What's going on here? Is that a note from her future husband? Fingers crossed.

Someone made a good call with that flower. It matches Rachel's dress pretty perfectly.

Not that we've ever seen Chris Harrison break a sweat, but he does look super confident and happy for the start of Rachel's journey.

Is it May 22 yet? I need to watch this episode. It's been way too long since I've seen Rachel on my television.
