Season 13 of 'The Bachelor' saw young father, Jason Mesnick, looking for a woman to not only be the love of his life but also a great mother to his son, Ty. We saw 25 beautiful women leaving him awestruck, some managed to grab his attention with their charm, while some others with their cringey and questionable behavior. Shannon Blair unfortunately falls firmly in the second category.

The pretty dental hygienist was so overwhelmed by the competition and the other women, that she threw up immediately. Later, during her one-on-one meeting with Jason to get to know him better, she began sobbing hysterically asking him not to send her back home. This awkward crying was followed by her revealing that she knows everything about Jason because she stalked his MySpace page, but she was also adamant about the fact that she wasn't a stalker. She then proceeded to pick her nose awkwardly, and then declared her love to Jason and leaned in to give him a kiss.

Poor Jason didn't know how to respond to it, so he just went with the flow and gave her an awkward peck. Their kiss was so awkward that even the host Chris Harrison declared it as the most awkward kiss of 'The Bachelor' franchise. Despite Shannon's awkwardness and cringey behavior, it resonated strongly with fans. A fan tweeted, "We're ALL Shannon #TheBachelorGOAT."



 

Another fan wrote, "Let's be real. We're ALL Shannon. #TheBachelorGOAT."



 

"Say what you want about Shannon, she puked and rallied and it was impressive. #TheBachelorGOAT ."



 

Several fans also joked about Shannon's impressive sleuthing skills, and declared that she should be hired by the showrunners to carry out background checks of all the people who appear on the show. A fan expressed, "Shannon the internet sleuth ... come join the true crime community and solve some murders girl!!!! #TheBachelorGOAT."



 

Another fan shared, "Shannon should be working with production doing background checks #TheBachelor #TheBachelorGOAT."



 

"Shannon should be hired by production to do background checks for all the contestants from now on #TheBachelorGOAT," joked another fan.



 

'The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons – Ever!' airs every Monday at 8/7c only on ABC.
