'The Bachelor' released a messy promo for the ongoing Season 24 during Oscars on Sunday, February 9, night starring Peter Weber and fans are totally weirded out.

The promo paid homage to 'Ghost' that won two Oscar awards and it also included a special appearance by Whoopi Goldberg who won the golden statuette for a supporting role in the movie. 

The promo shows a  shirtless Pilot Pete take on the main role in the classic pottery wheel scene from the movie. As he sits down, more than one pair of hands reach out from behind him. And right before the hands pull him back, Whoopi warns Peter saying, "Peter, you in danger boy". 

With the season nearing its end, Peter is now getting closer to finding his one true love. Last week after Tammy, Victoria P, Mykenna and Sydney were eliminated, only six women are left vying for Peter's heart. They are Hannah Ann, Kelsey, Madison, Natasha, and Victoria Fuller. 

Watching the promo that was released during the 92nd Academy Awards on Sunday night, fans feel weirded out and are not shying away from revealing what they think. Taking to Twitter a fan wrote, "This is one of the creepiest things I’ve ever seen... what the actual f*ck And tbh Peter really just like is not sexy." Adding to that another said, "I am so confused and disgusted  ."



 

Fans on Reddit also shared their opinion on the recently released promo saying, "Lmao overt sexuality does not work for Peter, but at least the commercial is true to his horn dog-ness." Adding to that another said, "That was literally one of the most cringey things Bach related I have ever watched." 

"Yawn. This Peter is sexy trope is played out. The only good thing about that was Whoopi," a fan wrote. While another said, "brb calling kelly to SUE whoever came up with the idea for that commercial." 

"I had the hugest smile watching that because I was so horrifyingly uncomfortable I couldn’t think of anything else to do with my face," a fan wrote. Adding to that another said, "Live reaction: yikes. yikes. YIKESSS YIKES! YIKES!!!! YIKES YIKES YIKES YIKES YIKES WHYY NO NO NO NO NO." 

"Okay, I need more wine to erase this from my memory," a fan wrote.
