'The Bachelorette' Season 21 contestant Devin Strader's 9/11 conspiracy theories spark outrage
HOUSTON, TEXAS: In Season 21 of 'The Bachelorette', Jenn Tran is on a quest for love after her elimination in week seven of Joey Graziadei's season of 'The Bachelor'. At 26, she is exploring new romantic possibilities with a group of exceptional men.
However, Bachelor Nation has a special interest in one contestant: Devin Strader. One Reddit thread revealed Devin's background, delving into his budding rapping career.
On Reddit, a Bachelor Nation viewer commented in a separate post, "Devin has rapped the n-word, is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist, and MAGA." The post further read, "No spoilers in this post but you might find some if you go looking for info beyond what's in here. some Devin tea: He appears to have been an aspiring rapper before the show."
If you Google "96dev," you can still find his Spotify, Soundcloud, Apple Music, and YouTube accounts, though many of his tracks have been removed since filming. He previously had two albums and several singles. Among them was a 2019 song called '96waves' that uses the n-word (and is also horrible and cringe).
'The Bachelorette' Season 21 suitor Devin Strader reportedly is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist
Additionally, according to the Redditor, Devin appears to be a 9/11 conspiracy theorist. Before the debut of 'The Bachelorette' Season 21, Reality Steve noted a somewhat startling incident during a truth-or-dare game that he wasn't sure would be included in the show.
In one of the Reddit spoiler posts, someone who claimed to know an individual on the show speculated that the scene in question occurred on night one when a man declared his belief in 9/11 conspiracy theories. This comment was made from a different account.
The post read, "I had never heard of reality steve but I saw a bunch of people talking about him and something he said happened night one so I asked my friend about it. Obviously this is an alt because I don't want it traced back to me or my friend so you can believe this or not Not sure if this is actually what reality steve is talking about but I guess on night one during truth or dare one of the guys was asked about conspiracy theories and he said he believes the September 11th conspiracy theories."
Subsequently, Reality Steve revealed on his website and during a live stream, "I said it on the livestream Sunday night, but during the game of Truth or Dare, Devin rolled Truth, he was asked what conspiracy theory he believed in, and he said he thought 9/11 was an inside job."
