WeTV Brings First African-American Bachelor To Television We’ve questioned time and time again why ABC has yet to cast an African-American man as their object of desire on the hit show “The Bachelor,” but we no longer have to wait because WeTV has answered the demand for a black bachelor with their new show “Match Made In Heaven.” The show stars a real estate developer named Shawn Bullard who is looking for a wife from amongst a group of very diverse beauties. Along to help him in his quest are his mother Maggie and NFL Spiritual Advisor for the Indianapolis Colts, Pastor Ken Johnson. Watch the teaser: So what do you think? Thursday WE tv hosted a screening in Atlanta of the new series “Match Made in Heaven,” starring millionaire bachelor Shawn Bullard. A number of press, VIPs and WE tv talent gathered at TWELVE Hotel Atlantic Station to shake hands with television’s first African-American “Bachelor” and get a glimpse of the show that chronicles Shawn’s quest to find true love. Attendees included Claudia Jordan (“Real Housewives of Atlanta”/BRAVO), Cynthia Bailey (“Real Housewives of Atlanta”/BRAVO), Maggie Bullard (“Match Made in Heaven”/WE tv), LeLee Lyons (“SWV Reunited”/WE tv), Ben and Jewell Tankard (“Thicker Than Water”/Bravo), Priyanka Banks (“Sorority Girls”/VH1), April McRae (“Sorority Girls”/VH1), Palmer Williams (“Love Thy Neighbor”/OWN), Judge Glenda Hatchett, Nicci Gilbert, Maja Sly (“Cutting It”/WE tv), Beautii Joseph (“Cutting It”/WE tv), Lou and Mushiya Tshikuka (“Cutting It”/WE tv), LaKenya Morris (“Cutting It”/WE tv), Dedra Allen (“Cutting It”/WE tv), Stacii Jae (“From the Bottom Up”/CENTRIC), Yvonne Capehart (“Sex Box”/WE tv), Stevie Baggs, Jr (athlete/actor), Melissa Knowles (HLN) and many more!
