You can stop reading all the rumors which try to fool you into believing Brad Womack may end up being rejected by the woman he chooses on this season of The Bachelor because I am here to tell you, this time, Womack will get his happy ending. And so will the lucky mystery woman this charming and beautiful man will chose in the end!

“I am very much in love and very very happy,” Womack told Mario Lopez of Extra during an interview taped at The Grove Tuesday and which will air later on in the day. Womack continued, “I’m a guy and when I fall, I fall hard!”

When did Womack realize he was in love? He said, “I always say, ‘When you know, you know.’ And I knew early on [during the show’s taping]. Even though I felt something early on, I promised myself I’d try 100 percent and I did… and held on to my first instincts.”

When I asked Womack if he is done taping the entire season, he responded without hesitation, “Yes, thank God!” I think more than anything else, he’s happy to be done being smacked around by the women this season for having not picked either of DeAnna Pappas or Jenni Croft the last time he was The Bachelor.

Lopez had a little bit of fun with Womack and gave him a list of celebs which he would date, mate with, or eliminate. Womack said: “I am spoken for!” When pushed to answer in the hypothetical, Womack said, “I would date Jennifer Aniston, mate with Scarlett Johansson and I’m sorry to say, eliminate Kim Kardashian!”

The Bachelor with Brad Womack as the target catch starts January 3. And ABC and Womack are showing their sense of humor about the return of the “most hated” Bachelor ever.

Today, they posted these two ads on Facebook with the caption: “You’ve seen our official poster for this season but we thought we’d give you a look behind-the-scenes with two other options that were considered. Who’s updating their profile picture?”
I won’t be updating my profile pic, but, I sure will be tuning in to watch this season to see how the women treat this seasoned returnee.

A lot can change in a year – Just ask the latest star of The Bachelorette, Ali Fedotowsky.

The reality star darling was at first one of 25 women vying for Jake Pavelka‘s heart on The Bachelor. 


On that show, Ali made the shocking decision to leave early and rejoin her job at Facebook even though she was one of only four women left still fighting for Jake. 
About her decision to leave The Bachelor mid-competition, she told People: “A year ago I had just gotten home from filming The Bachelor. I was like, ‘I don’t have love. This sucks.’ ” 
A few months later, Fedotowsky decided to give finding love another try and went on to star on The Bachelorette, where she met, fell in love and got engaged to Roberto Martinez, the man with whom she now lives. 
“Last year I was filling a void with [buying expensive] boots, and this year I have Roberto,” says Fedotowsky. Martinez feels the same. He told People: “Last year I was single, missing that piece in my life.  Now I have it. I’m appreciative of that.”

Jake Pavelka of The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and most recently of Dancing With the Stars, will be playing the role of a pilot on The Bold and the Beautiful.

The episode of his one-time appearance will air January, 2011.

Funny that Jake is playing a pilot on TV since in real life, he flies planes for Delta Airlines. 
As his last stint on TV, Jake played a dating reality show contestant on Drop Dead Diva. In Jake’s case, seems like it is art that imitates life.

Ali Fedotowsky met up with Mario Lopez of Extra at The Grove to kick off Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Ali encouraged everyone to purchase especially-marked pink-ribbon video on demand movies to help raise funds to find a cure for breast cancer.

Ali was wearing a beautiful pink dress and pink ribbon to raise awareness for breast cancer and looked way more beautiful in person than she even does on TV.

Of course Mario also asked Ali about her relationship with Roberto Martinez and the former Bachelorette said, “Things could not be going any better.” Ali also said, “Roberto is very romantic and likes to carry me around everywhere.”  As for living together, Ali said: “We are starting to learn new things about each other, like, I am a lot messier than he knew.”


Mario also asked what Ali thought about Brad Womack being named as the next Bachelor despite Womack having chosen no one the last time Womack looked for love on The Bachelor.  Ali said: “Of course I was skeptical at first. But, I have a great B.S. radar and after hearing Womack out, I believe he is very genuine and looking for love.”

Brad Womack Is Named The New Bachelor – Again.

Brad Womack — once considered by many to be the “most hated Bachelor” in the series’ history — has spent the better part of the last three years going through a radical personal transformation after the shocking finale night that changed his life forever. Now he is really ready — healthier both in body and mind — to make a genuine commitment to a relationship, as he stars in the next edition of ABC’s hit romance reality series, The Bachelor, when it returns to ABC in January 2011.

Brad with DeAnna Pappas

Womack, 37, did the unthinkable by most fans’ standards and did not choose either Jenni Croft or DeAnna Pappas on his finale back in November 2007. The day after it taped was the loneliest day of his life. Disappointed in himself for wasting this great opportunity, Brad kept to himself for two to three months afterwards. Unaware at the time that he really wasn’t ready to commit to a relationship and not knowing the reasons why, his fears and worries were validated when a media firestorm and viewers from across the country let him know what they were thinking. With that, he started therapy to learn what problems were confronting him. He desperately wanted to fix whatever it was that wasn’t allowing him to let people into his life.

For the last three years he has undergone intensive therapy, looking at who he was in a quite painful journey of self-awareness. In the meantime, he put his head down and worked — buying and selling three companies and building one from the ground up. And although he has dated during this time, he hasn’t had a serious relationship. Adding to his sense of urgency are his two brothers: Chad, his twin, is not only married now but has a daughter; and Wes, his younger brother, who also is married, now has a little boy and girl. Brad is the last one without a wife or family. Brad is convinced he is a better person in many ways than he was in 2007. Get ready to see a changed, revitalized man who is still optimistic and confident about finding love on The Bachelor. He is more ready than ever to find a wife and start a family.

Currently residing in Austin, Texas, Brad had an early plan to make his mark on the world and, at 19, left Texas State University (known then as Southwest Texas State) after one year of college to work in oil fields across the country to save up money. His eight-year odyssey took him all over Texas and then to Louisiana, North Dakota and California.

After working diligently in the oil fields, he got into bartending with his twin brother, Chad. Some eight months of tending bar later, he had enough money saved to finance the purchase of his first drinking establishment with his brothers in 2001, when he was just 28. However Brad has had to overcome some obstacles on his way to his booming business career. Born in Atlanta, his family stayed there until he was 12 years old, and then the family moved to Livingston, Texas, where he went to high school. Growing up in a single-parent home, his challenging days as a youngster helped to instill in him a good work ethic, the importance of a stable family and the ability to be a good provider. Not born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he is appreciative of what he has accomplished on his own. These strong values, coupled with great looks and undeniable sex appeal, make him the perfect catch.

Will Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez tie the knot on TV or not? The two discuss that possibility with E! in the video below.

Ali also talked about her new gig as San Diego’s local FOX newswoman and the possibility of going on to a national show instead: “I maybe, eventually do something that’s a little bigger and national? Maybe, yeah. I think that would be a lot of fun,” she said. “But the reason I wanted to do Fox 5 San Diego is that I wanted to be able to give back to my community.”

Giving back to the community may be a good reason, but a better reason is that her beau, Roberto, is starting an insurance business in San Diego.

Elizabeth Kitt Of Bachelor Pad – EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW.

  The season finale of Bachelor Pad airs tonight and the winner of the $250K prize will be crowned.

We are down to the final six contestants and I spoke with one of those finalists, Elizabeth Kitt, and got the scoop on the game, the house, the Fantasy Suite, the challenges, the friendships and her relationship with Jesse Kovacs.

CelebMagnet: What was the most difficult part of living in the Bachelor Pad?
Elizabeth: The most difficult things for me were being strategic, playing the game without hurting my friends, and getting myself as far as possible. It was very difficult knowing everyone in the house had to be strategic. We came in the house with a lot of our friends. And none of us wanted to hurt each other but we also wanted to get ourselves as far as possible. I had a hard time deciding whether people in the house were being honest or shady. The first few days, I couldn’t sleep. I was so stressed. All of the strategy weighed so heavily on me in the beginning, that I decided after the first episode, I would stop being strategic and just play the game. My friends and I made a pact then that we would not discuss strategy at all, other than telling each other who we would vote off right before the vote. This “non-strategy” actually ended up working really well for us because it allowed for sanity for the “insiders” and kept us in the game for the long run. It also kept us from second-guessing ourselves and each other.

CelebMagnet: Other than Kovacs, with whom were you the closest inside Bachelor Pad?
Elizabeth: Ashley Elmore. Ashley and I were on The Bachelor the same season – Jake Pavelka‘s. Ashley is a loyal friend. She is smart. She played the game safe and tried to stay under the radar. I tried to convince her to couple up – but she didn’t and obviously, she left the show when it came down to just the couples staying.

CelebMagnet: Did any one player surprise you?
Elizabeth: Wes Hayden surprised me. I went into the show not having heard anything positive about him. But, he’s a great guy who got a bad wrap. We all have a million sides to us, and only his bad sides were emphasized on The Bachelorette. He is a good guy with a genuine heart. He’s fun to be around and has a ton of friends off the show as well – speaking to how great a guy he is.

 CelebMagnet: Did you and Kovacs get in trouble for using the “Fantasy Suite?”
Elizabeth: No. Kovacs and I had not had a date on the show when we decided to go to the Fantasy Suite. We are both mature adults and did not think it would be in bad taste to take advantage of the Fantasy Suite. We both wanted to take full advantage of the opportunities presented on Bachelor Pad. I mean, how often will we again get the chance to leave behind our cell phones, jobs, TV, internet and just have each other? We became very close to people in the house. And it was just a fun time.

CelebMagnet: Why did everyone on the show start calling Kovacs by his last name only?
Elizabeth: Since there were three people with same first name, the producers asked us to call him by his last name. I don’t call him “Kovacs” in my normal days off the show.

 CelebMagnet: So, the question we all want answered: Are you and Kovacs still together?Elizabeth: Well, living in the house, you really get to know someone well. The situation lends itself to an accelerated building of a relationship. If Kovacs and I ever had a shot at a relationship, it would have been at the house. After the taping of the show ended, he and I tried for a short minute to continue our relationship. Then he and I talked and it was clear he was not ready for anything other than a casual relationship and I want a commitment. So, we ended things but have remained friends and don’t hate each other. But we don’t hang out. It’s hard on me. I put my heart out there on the show and he would be so nice to my face. But then when the shows aired, I heard him say very uncomplimentary things about me on camera which I found very hurtful. Had I known while I was in the house what he was saying on camera, I never would have gotten closer to him.

I fell so hard for him before coming into the house. Our relationship had started before: We lived three miles away from each other, saw each other often, worked out together, and met each other’s families. But when the shows aired, I found out the other side of what he was thinking about me. He said I had a “screw loose.” He said lots of hurtful things and I did not deserve that. I never mistreated him or spoke badly of him. And I could never date a guy who speaks poorly of me.

CelebMagnet: So, you have watched all of the episodes now – What do you think of the other “insiders” (Tenley Molzahn, Kiptyn Locke, David Good, and Natalie Getz) going with loyalty and keeping you and Kovacs versus being strategic and keeping Peyton Wright and Jesse Beck?
Elizabeth: I had no idea all of that was going on. Like I said before, I was not participating in strategy. I didn’t speak badly about anyone. I was very go with the flow. After watching the shows, I was very surprised to see how many times I was on the chopping block. I knew that Tenley and Natalie had a stronger relationship and had a girl code between the two of them. But I had no idea they wanted me and Kovacs out. I am so glad they kept us because it would have been very sad to leave before the final six.

It’s also funny because I watched that particular episode with Tenley and Natalie – and luckily, it all worked out in the end.

CelebMagnet: What did you think of the challenges/games?
Elizabeth: A lot of us went into the house thinking we had to be in great physical shape for the challenges. But a pie eating contest? WHO can prepare for that? And I can’t tell you how gross the pies were.

The kissing game – it was funny. I was watching all of the girls kiss the guys before my turn. I knew who all were in relationships. So, I tried to kiss the men the way their girlfriends would kiss them to confuse them so they would vote for me as the best kisser. So, even if the games seemed juvenile, there was still strategy involved on how best to win.

The questions/voting game was hurtful and a low blow. We were not prepared for that.

The water balloon game: Dave’s a football player. Kovacs is a baseball player. I knew we would not win because football involves more finesse. That last throw from David to Natalie was a beautiful throw. They did a good job.

Overall, we were caught off guard that such elementary challenges were in the way of us making $250K.

CelebMagnet: What’s next in store for you?
Elizabeth: I live in LA. I am open to any opportunity. I’d be interested in show hosting. Currently, I am in sales and have been in sales since college. Who knows what the future holds for me….
