Sarah Darling is one lucky lady: she gets to appear on this season’s The Bachelor not once but twice. Tonight, additional footage from her concert in Whitefish, Montana, will air on The Bachelor: Sean Tells All special. Plus, we’ll get to see never-before-seen shots from Sean Lowe’s one-on-one date with Lindsay Yenter. Sharing her personal excitement, Darling said, “Tonight’s show is going to be amazing! I’m so excited to hear what Sean has to say about all of the ladies, especially Tierra.”

Darling got a firsthand look at Lowe’s connection with Yenter, so does the country star think the contestant has what it takes to get the final rose? “I’m a little surprised that she’s in the final three — I guess the wedding dress was a good choice!,” referring to Yenter shocking Lowe on night one by stepping out of the limo in a wedding dress.
Still, with Lesley gone — Darling’s frontrunner when we last spoke to her — she has to pick a new top choice. “My favorite remaining lady is Lindsay, of course!”
Performing on The Bachelor proved to have bigger perks than just meeting the handsome Lowe. Sales of her single “Home to Me” increased by 220 percent following her first appearance. Of this impressive jump in numbers, Darling shared, “Being on the show definitely introduced my music to new fans, and I’m really thankful for that opportunity.”

She’s also expanding her fan base on the Weekend Road Trip Tour with Scotty McCreery, which kicked off on Valentine’s Day. ”This past week has been a dream come true. This is my first national tour, and I could not be out with a better guy. Scotty is such a great artist, and we’re having so much fun,” Darling said of McCreery, whom she watched on American Idol. “The McCreerians have really welcomed me with open arms, and I’m loving this tour already!”
For those of you lucky enough to attend one of their shows, be sure to watch closely. “We even have a special number that we perform together each night!”
