Wes Hayden was a contestant on The Bachelorette. He admitted to going on the show to further his music career. Hayden did not participate in the Men Tell All show that aired before the season finale on July 20, presumably because he believed that ABC portrayed him unfairly.
It was alleged that Wes Hayden was involved with Austin boutique owner Laurel Kagay, and was not truly looking for love with Jillian Harris, when he joined the show. Kagay had previously dated Bachelor Brad Womack. Hayden continued to deny having a girlfriend until up until he was eliminated on July 6, 2009. Upon getting into the limo, Wes hayden spoke to the camera, saying he was the first person in Bachelorette history to get to the top four while having a girlfriend.
Wes Hayden has said an an interview with Reality TV that his statement was taken out of context, and edited to make him look bad. He maintains that his entire statement was "Only guy in Bachelorette history to make it to the top four with a girlfriend. Get real, dude. If I had a girlfriend, I'd be home with her right now."http://www.realitytvscoop.com/2009/07/wes-hayden-speaks-on-laurel-kagay-the-bachelorette/
Jake Speaks About Wes
Jake Pavelka, another contestant on the show, finally told Jillian Harris about his conversations with Hayden about Laurel kagay. Although Hayden denied it, Pavelka maintains, ""The conversations that Wes and I had were not, 'Hey Jake, I've got a girlfriend. It was, 'Jake, I've got a girlfriend. I don't know what to do.' I said, 'Wes, are you in love with her? Because if you're not in love with her, you may fall in love with Jillian.' He said, 'No. Jillian is not the girl for me.' That's why it was so serious to me, because Wes had somebody back home that he cared about."http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/jake-pavelka-bachelorette-wes-hayden-in-cahoots-with-girlfriend-9226.phpWes Hayden Quote
Some years ago I was listening to an old Lefty song that Haggard recorded, That's the Way Love Goes, and the song blew me away, even though I have heard it many times, but for some reason this time was different. It was like a light came on and I knew then that I wanted to be a true country singer and writer. By true, I mean country music with the traditional sound.http://www.weshayden.com/Bio/bio.html-

Jillian says goodbye to Wes.
carolinagirl added a comment July 07, 2009 06:44 PM| ReportJillian just outclasses him on every level. She handled herself with grace. No way Wes could've shared any spotlight with her, she outshines him. He's really not all that handsome. Self-serving, self-absorbed...ugh. Makes me nauseous. He is just such a snake! It is appalling! I can see where people may be curious to see him, heckle him, throw tomatoes at him...I just hope they get to throw 'em at his girlfriend, too. I'd be interested to know if any press really is good press. Time either promotes you or exposes you. Laurel's business could very well be in jeopardy after his final comments. Me thinks thou doth protest too much!
wessux added a comment July 07, 2009 07:43 PM| ReportWes is a piece of sh*t!!! I am a huge country fan. Wes Hayden is no country star. He doesn't deserve it....he's a no talent wanna be! He's so stupid! Did you see in his final episode how he said since he was "popular" in Mexico it made him close to Spanish people! DUH! Mexicans are from Mexico....Spanairds are from Spain. I'm so glad Jillian finally got rid of him like yesterday's bathwater. And, remember you idiot.....The Bachelor/Bachelorette series can either rocket you into stardom or burn you in the depths of hell. Rot in hell wanna be!
nolefthand added a comment July 07, 2009 09:11 PM| ReportFunny, he has my first name and sounds exactly like the guy I write for, Mason Heller (a country singer, but a nice guy whose also on MySpace). His behavior is an embarassment to all Wes's out there.
mrstamayo added a comment July 08, 2009 01:09 AM| ReportOKay Numero uno, I mean numero Cero! Wes is a jerk, and I think if he wanted fans, then taking the advice to come on tv and show what an a**hole he is was a big mistake. NOW, bc we all know what a pathetic jerk he is, many people myself included would never ever buy his album, go to a show, AND if his song ever came on the radio, I would change the station. He actually LOST fans by going on the bachelorette and lying to jillian and making Jake ( A REAL MAN) look bad. I knew Wes was bad from the beggining. I guess Jillian just had to find out the hard way. Oh yeah and that girl Laurel, is UGLY! Why is he bragging about having sex with a horse? Jillian is too good for Wes. But the jokes on Wes, he lost fans and Jillian is going to gain Love! She still has 3 great guys to choose from who are all 150 times better than Wes.... I feel sorry for him, what a sad, pathetic, little boy.
dizznmo added a comment July 08, 2009 04:01 AM| ReportGreat song Wes! Too bad you ruined it with letting all of us know who you really are. So who is it really for? True country, Wes... its about traditional values, family and treating your lady with respect. I am not as bothered by you as I thought I would be. The only thing I would be bothered by is the country music industry if they accepted and or promoted something that went completely against the grain of what that industry is all about and that would be you. If you were looking for fame, you just got your fifteen minutes, if you were looking to be a country western star, well... I believe you just shot that star down.
dianevandewalle added a comment July 12, 2009 02:57 AM| ReportWes, you are a douche bag!!! People who use other people are *ssholes and get exactly what they deserve... You think this will get your career going, but I believe it will ruin your career. Using people can never be a good thing!
dianevandewalle added a comment July 12, 2009 02:58 AM| ReportI wanted Jillian to get rid of you a lot sooner!!! I can't believe she didn't see you for who you really are!!! You are a loser and you deserve to never have your career take off at all. This will be your downfall not your big moment in the sun!!! *sshole!
famewhore added a comment July 18, 2009 11:27 PM| ReportPremeditated!! Before Wes got on the show, he already had his web pages ready for when they finally told him to exit-stage left. That's his cue to Upload all his publicity stunts to his web-site and claim fame for being a user and a manipulator. Again, this publicity stunt was 100% Pre-meditated, and had to be ONLINE before his first Tour date of July 10th. Who cares about a girlfriend or not, or is Reality Steve gets to say I told you the show was fake. FOCUS with me. This publicity STUNT was Pre-meditated by himself, Not ABC. Seems ABC is getting in the way of Wes's success. Seems he got burnt by the fire he started. He's mad cause ABC didn't give him editing power for THEIR show.
sb830 added a comment July 22, 2009 06:41 PM| ReportWho really cares! It's a reality show and no one can say they would not do the same for their own benefit. I could only imagine how difficult it would be to get your name out in the music business. I have never heard of Wes but after watching the show I will be buying his CD. (so the plan worked! yay) He is a very talented musician and I like his music. Are you going to criticize the woman on the show for dating, flirting and swapping spit with 30 men???? Way to go Wes, you have my vote and your music is awesome!!!!!!! -

frankenda added a comment July 07, 2009 06:13 PM| Reportmaybe some will buy his music but I notice on his friends list on his my space there are some important country music artists. I hope they are truly sad that Wes used the country music industry to completely use a woman, a tv show, and fans. If his manager is proud of his behavior and comments leaving in the limo, then he and Wes are a good pair. Good things come to honest people and what goes around comes around. If he can sleep at night, good for him. The few of us commenting on here wont make a difference not buying one of his CD's. But it is my honest hope that true country music artists will NOT support his music or his tasteless way of promoting himself. If he was all that good he wouldnt have needed to use this show.
carolinagirl added a comment July 07, 2009 06:30 PM| ReportI think it is tragic how manipulative and opportunistic Wes, his manager, his band, his family, and his girlfriend (Laurel) have been at the expense of such a genuine person just looking for love. It is profoundly sad. Shame on them all.

debic added a comment July 28, 2009 04:33 AM| ReportGive me a freakin' break!!! Let's just disregard for a moment that he admitted in the limp that he's a snake....He can't sing his way out of a paperbag! He'd get kicked out of most karaoke bars, much less out of Country Music! That song he "wrote for Jillian" was horrible, it sounded like he was drunk when he wrote it...and he just kept singing it and singing it. UCK!! I personally have started a campaign to keep anyone from buying his music.. Personally, I hope they keep him in Mexico, although that's liable to start an international incident...they probably want him out of there as much as we don't want him here. NOT A FAN of WES THE MESS
