At this point, Bachelor fans know Nick Viall a little too well. And that means it's time to meet the 30 (!!!) — read: they REALLY want this to work — women who will be vying for his heart. Here's what we gathered from each of their bios.

2 of 31

Astrid, 26

Occupation: Plastic Surgery Office Manager

Hometown: Tampa, FL

Fun fact: If that doesn't tell you enough about Astrid, she lists "lashes" as one of the things she couldn't live without, "getting old and wrinkly" as one of her biggest fears, and states that she'd be happy if she never had to "work." RUN, Nick.

Alexis, 23

Occupation: Aspiring Dolphin Trainer

Hometown: Secaucus, NJ

Fun fact: SHE'S NOT EVEN A REAL DOLPHIN TRAINER. SHE JUST WANTS TO BE ONE.

Angela, 26

Occupation: Model

Hometown: Greenville, SC

Fun fact: She's the third woman (of three so far) to declare her love of dolphins — is this one of Nick's requirements or something? — and her guiltiest pleasure is "desserts." So unique!

Brittany, 26

Occupation: Travel Nurse

Hometown: Santa Monica, CA

Fun fact: She's scared of snakes and admires Beyoncé, so what's not to love?

Briana, 28

Credit: Mitch Haaseth/ABC

Occupation: Surgical Unit Nurse

Hometown: 28

Fun fact: Once again, a woman who loves dolphins and The Little Mermaid. But she would want to be Ariel because of her "great hair, cool animal friends and she marries a cutie." I'd say something snarky but everyone knows Prince Eric is HOT.

Christen, 25

Occupation: Wedding Videographer

Hometown: Tulsa, OK

Fun fact: If she could break any law, she would "break into the White House and spend months sleeping in a storage closet and observing what actually goes on behind closed doors." But aside from any national security risks, she seems normal!

Corinne, 24

Credit: Mitch Haaseth/ABC

Occupation: Business Owner

Hometown: Miami, FL

Fun fact: The only red flags here are that she considers Frasier to be a guilty pleasure and that "business owner" is wayyyy too vague.

Elizabeth, 24

Occupation: Marketing Manager

Hometown: Dallas, TX

Fun fact: When asked what her greatest achievement has been, she said, "My life has been a journey of achievements that only I would appreciate." Translation: She's achieved nothing.

Danielle M., 31

Occupation: Neonatal Nurse

Fun fact: She loves The Sandlot, Ferris Bueller, and The Notebook, and she moved to Nashville to start over after her fiancé died. So she's potentially normal?

Hailey, 23

Occupation: Photographer

Hometown: Vancouver

Fun fact: She has seven tattoos — including one of a bobby pin — and doesn't consider herself a romantic. Instead, she says, "I'm very passionate and can be intense but I'm not into making out all the time and being sang to." Honey, you could've stopped at "can be intense."

Occupation: Restaurant Server

Hometown: Los Angeles, CA

Fun fact: If she could have lunch with three people alive or dead, it'd be "My grandfather, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jesus – and we'd be eating burritos from Chipotle." What else do you need to know?

Hometown: Harlingen, TX

Fun fact: When asked her favorite book, she said, "I need to read more books." When asked her favorite author, she said, "Again, I need to read more books."

Jaimi, 28

Occupation: Chef

Hometown: New Orleans, LA

Fun fact: Jaimi once catered the Oscars, which is very impressive. To be honest, I was rooting for her, until she described her diet as "Pesco-pollo-lacto-ovo-paro-tarian. Just fish + bird, plus byproducts."

Occupation: Pro Basketball Dancer

Hometown: San Francisco, CA

Fun fact: Jasmine is approximately the 100th woman to declare her love for Olivia Pope before revealing that if she could have lunch with three people dead or alive, it'd be "RuPaul, Dave Chappelle, Prince. I would order pizza."

Occupation: Flight Attendant

Hometown: Tacoma, WA

Fun fact: She lists her height as 5'2.5" so clearly, she's got a complex about it.

Occupation: Dental Hygienist

Hometown: Lexington, KY

Fun fact: If she could be anyone else for a day, it'd be her biological mother because, "I'd like to know what she was going through when I was young and if choosing alcohol over kids was worth it." So, there's that.

Occupation: Fashion Boutique Owner

Hometown: Hoxie, AR
