Rumors Hit Before First Airing of "The Bachelor"

A Possible Scandal?

Karen Gros
Women all across America have been waiting for the first episode of "The Bachelor" to air. The time is almost here, as Monday, January 4, 2010 is only a few days away. However, rumors have hit the airwaves. Will this peak your interest? Turn you off? Make you sick? Or does this just make you want to hurry up and get to the truth of the matter?

Rumors are starting to trickle out about the new season of "The Bachelor" that hint at a contestant cheating on the "bachelor". Jake Pavelka is the new bachelor. He is 31 years old from Dallas, Texas. He is a commercial jet pilot. Oh, and did I mention he is very good looking? Jake was a reject from the previous "Bachelorette" show. He was the one that came back to tell Jillian that Wes was a cheater and had a girlfriend back home. It didn't earn him any brownie points, but we do know that Jake is a good man.

The rumors I have heard about the new season of "The Bachelor" say that a contestant has caused a scandal by cheating on the bachelor. One rumor states that a contestant had an affair with a crew member of the set. The rumor goes on to state that it was a pretty hot affair and lasted for some time during the taping of the show. This indicates (if true) that the contestant is not kicked off the show for the actions and also receives a rose through several ceremonies. Hummm...obviously Jake had no clue!

Another rumor hints that a contestant cheats on Jake by having a fling with another girl/contestant. Now this just seems to me a bit over the top, but hey....this is reality TV! Anything goes! We all know ABC is good with adding new twists to each airing of "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette".

So far, the guilty contestant has not been named. Again, this points to the guilty party hanging around for several episodes of the show in my opinion.

So ladies, until Monday (and I'm sure a few more episodes) we will be kept in the dark about who and what really happened and who is the guilty party? We will just have to sit back and relax and let the show go on because ABC has "no comments" about the situation.

Tune in Monday to see if you can figure this one out!

  • Jake Pavelka is the new bachelor.
  • Jake is 31, tall and very handsome!
Jake is the contestant from The Bachelorette that spilled the beans to Jillian that Wes had a girlfriend. This didn't help him with Jillian's choice in the end, but now he is the new Bachelor.

    I can't believe they wouldn't boot both the girl and the crew member off of the show! Guess we'll have to watch and see!
