The new 'Bachelor' has been announced and it's the first time ABC has cast a Black man.
In addition to being smart, caring , and, well, easy on the eyes, Matt is a hard worker who values diversity. In 2019, he said in an interview:"The thing about NYC, regardless of your culture, religion, gender, etc. if you’re competent and work hard then you will succeed! You aren’t discriminated against as NYC is a melting pot like no other city."
He added:"You are uniquely positioned in a city where there is every industry and influential people all around you. If you’re a mover and shaker, the world is your oyster. The resources are here for anyone to be successful if they choose to apply themselves."
