That said, a few of them have some promising surprises up their sleeves. Ally listed her hidden talent as twerking, while Charlotte legitimately takes a twerking class "to keep fit". And one Bachelorette, Molly is apparently "known for her breakdancing" after a few wines.
There are a couple of beauty pageant queens, models, humanitarians, scholars and someone who partied with Justin Bieber.
Here's a little info about each of the new Bachelorettes:

ELAINA
Age: 26 / Star Sign: Pisces / Hometown: Bangkok, Thailand / Now based in: Wellington
Elaina is "always smiling" and while she says she's not competitive, the other Bachelorettes should note she does "love doing a bit of Muay Thai boxing" and is a big UFC fan.
HANNAH

Hannah may have "narrowly missed out on qualifying for the NZ gymnastics team" but she "can still wheel out a backflip as a party trick".

LUCIA

Mariana says her ideal man is basically Frank Farmer from The Bodyguard (played by Kevin Costner).

Some twerk, others breakdance, Monique's party trick? "I know the alphabet backwards".
