At the present moment there are no bachelors on television more in-demand than NFL Cincinnati Bengal Ochocinco (formerly known as Chad Williams) and Minnesota Viking Bernard Berrian. The star and co-star of VH1’s Ultimate Catch have successfully combined dating and sport competition to the tune of 1.5 million viewers weekly. We’re guessing most of these eyes come with longer lashes and would love an opportunity to bag a chocolate receiver (no pun). So VIBE has decided to help the ladies out by asking Mr. ‘Cinco and Sir Berrian for 5 Must-Have’s for their Ms Right. Pay attention and you too could be ballin’. —Bonsu Thompson
1. Ocho: REGULAR MANICURE AND PEDICURE
“You absolutely have to have nice feet and hands to be with me!”
Bernard: FUN PERSONALITY
“I like outgoing women but not too outgoing. I don’t like the quiet type at all. She’s got to be funny too. Definitely can’t be boring.”
2. Ocho: SENSE OF HUMOR
“I know I’m funny so you’ve got to make me laugh.”
Bernard: INTEGRITY
“That encompasses a lot of things: trust, honor…I mean you can’t really count on somebody without integrity.”
3. Ocho: INTERESTING PERSONALITY
“You have to keep me interested if we’re going to last. It can’t be all about good looks.”
Bernard: RELIGIOUS
“ I wouldn’t [care what religion] just as long as they read from the bible. I guess it has to be some form of Christianity…actually I don’t care what religion they have as long as they read from the bible.”
4. Ocho: LOVE FOR MCDONALDS
“Because I love it! A #1 Value Meal with extra cheese and NO onions!”
Bernard: EDUCATION
“There’s really no fun in talking to someone who isn’t educated. The conversation can get real redundant.”
5. Ocho: COOKING SKILLS
“I can’t eat McDonalds forever!”
Bernard: ATTRACTIVENESS
“A lot of people say I [have a type] because I end up with same types ofgirls: brunettes, more exotic looking. I like athletic bodies too. Not too muscular because the men are supposed to have the muscles [laughs]. Women are supposed to be soft so you can cuddle with them. I’m not a cuddler, though [Laughs].”
