In the Season 21 premiere, fans quickly learn that Jenn's first night as the Bachelorette isn't at the Bachelor mansion. Instead, the New Jersey native meets her 25 hunky suitors at the Hummingbird Nest Ranch in Santa Susana, Calif.

In late March 2024, Jenn chatted with Entertainment Tonight about shaking things up and ditching the Bachelor mansion for her first night as the Bachelorette.

"I think what I've been trying to tell myself [is I'm the] first Asian Bachelorette, first PA student, we're really breaking the mold this season," she said. "I feel like a new mansion is the perfect way to break the mold... I'm gonna bless it with some really good vibes."
