MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA: Since his debut on 'The Bachelorette' Season 21, Sam Nejad has become a hot topic among viewers and fans. His presence on the show has ignited numerous discussions and debates, making him one of the most talked-about contestants of the season.

During the premiere episode of the dating show, Sam said, "I am a virgin, a love virgin. So, I’ve never been in love. I’ve never experienced love. But what I do know, is that I’ll do everything in my power to see if our love exists.”

In his introduction video, Sam shared that his parents immigrated to the United States from Iran, bringing with them a traditional upbringing that emphasized the importance of relationships. “The girl I make my girlfriend is the girl I make my wife," he shared.

Despite Sam's limited experience in relationships, he is no stranger to reality romance. He has appeared on dating shows before, including David Alvareeezy's 'Girls Blind Rank Guys Kissing' video, where he was featured kissing two girls.

Additionally, Sam has appeared in other dating videos such as 'Blind Dating 7 Guys Based on Their Halloween Costumes,' where he described his costume as 'Middle Eastern Flynn Rider.'

Fans have subsequently called out Sam over his virginity story, citing his past appearances in dating show videos as evidence. A Reddit user shared, "In the preview he is also the one who tells Jenn he’s falling in love with her on a group date in front of EVERYONE. Now seeing this, it makes perfect sense lmfao."

Another user added, "Okay I agree now, this man is giving bad vibes." One user wrote, "Omg I knew he looked familiar! I’ve seen him on a few of David Alvareezy’s videos lmao." Another user said, "I saw the video omg he is exactly like I imagined he'd be 😭."
