'The Bachelor' and its spinoff 'The Bachelorette' have a history of some very exciting and very embarrassing and awkward entries. Contestants have run through a poster, have shown up in a straitjacket, and have even arrived with pregnant bellies in the past. However, topping all of those moments was Katie Thurston's entry on the Matt James' starrer Season 25 of 'The Bachelor' where she showed up armed with her trusty shiny friend, her vibrator. She has no qualms as she walked out of the limo, hiding it behind her back and she walked up to Matt and in an uber-suave manner pulled it to the front, toting it and waving it in front of the frontman. She even came up with a good enough reason to carry it with her. Citing the fact that fantasy suite dates take place towards the end of the season with the top three, Katie said she brought the toy along for company and Matt just couldn't hold back his laughter. Here's some information about Katie who managed to pull off a successful feat of making Matt laugh.

What does Katie Thurston do for a living?

Katie might have come across as a very confident woman with strong social media influencer vibes but she works as a Bank Marketing Manager in Renton, Washington. She also plans to put her wit to good use and harbors dreams of hosting her own talk show someday according to her official bio on ABC. 

Does Katie Thurston have an Instagram account?

She does! Her handle is @ventwithkatie. She has some 81 posts on her feed, most of them featuring herself while her cat makes an appearance in some of her photos. 

Is Katie Thurston on TikTok?

She does! According to Bustle, she gained a solid following on the video-sharing app after going viral after sharing a storytime video in which she relayed a very detailed incident about pooping herself at work. That helped her amass close to 250,000 followers and since then she's been actively poting about topics like sexting, enemas, and being a single cat lady. 

What kind of a man is Katie looking for?

Katie needs a man who can laugh along with her but is okay with him laughing at her too when the moment calls for it. Katie is looking for a mature man who has ambitions to succeed in everything he does, both personally and professionally. Her dream man will be passionate about building a long-term life with her and will treat Katie as his equal in the relationship.

'The Bachelor' airs Mondays at 8 pm ET on ABC.
