SANTA SUSANA, CALIFORNIA: In the second episode of 'The Golden Bachelorette', aired on September 25, fans were delighted to see two amazing guests, Taylor Dayne and Loni Love.

Iconic musician Taylor serenaded the viewers of the ABC dating show with her smashing hit debut single 'Tell It to My Heart.' All the contestants were in complete awe of Taylor's vocals and couldn't stop cheering for her as she performed.
