Rob Lowe Responds to Golden Bachelorette Crush

Rob Lowe has humorously responded to Joan Vassos, the star of The Golden Bachelorette, who revealed him as her longtime celebrity crush during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Vassos, 61, confessed her admiration for Lowe, whom she met as an extra on the set of St. Elmo’s Fire in 1985, stating she would trade her current relationship for him 'in one second.' In response, Lowe shared a video on Instagram joking that he could be the Golden Bachelor, remarking that this idea is 'better than a Golden Globe.' Vassos has been navigating her journey on the show while processing grief over her late husband, crediting the show's mental health resources for her personal growth. The finale of The Golden Bachelorette is set to air, where Vassos will make a significant decision between two finalists, Chock and Guy. Lowe, who has been married since 1991, also teased the audience's excitement for the finale, humorously engaging with Vassos' crush.
