Entering with a glass slipper- creative or cheesy?

Emily Maynard has a few surprises in store as she meets her 25 potential bachelors

Can you feel it, Bachelorette fans? Summer time TV is almost upon us. Tuesday (May 1) ABC announced the 25 suitors who are after Emily Maynard’s heart on the upcoming season and now we have some sneak peek photos of the premiere episode.

Above, you can see one Prince Charming (Tony, 31, lumber trader from Oregon) presents Emily with a glass slipper and then makes her put it on. That’s one way to get her attention, we suppose.

Below, Alessandro (30, grain merchant, Minnesota) feeds Emily something, while below that, Emily is flanked by four good-looking fellows (from left) Alejandro (25, mushroom farmer, California), Stephen (or “Stevie,” 26, party MC, New York), Joseph (27, field energy advisor, California) and Arie (30, race car driver, Arizona).

And finally, in the very bottom picture, we have a man who appears to be dressed up as an old lady (Randy, 30, marketing manager, California). Um, if this is a wolf-granny-better-to-eat-you-with situation, we would tell him to hit the bricks. Actually, we aren’t sure what the explanation could possibly be that would have us telling him otherwise. Hmm.

The Bachelorette premieres Monday, May 14 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
