Brad Womack on Arrest Record: Builds Character

Give Brad Womack credit. On The Bachelor and in life, the 38-year-old Texan is open about who he is, even when that requires admitting his faults. It’s refreshing in a sense. This week, celebrity gossip reports exposed his alleged brushes with the law in the past, an impressive list of infractions. Womack says it’s all true. Brad’s criminal history includes carrying a forged driver’s license, public intoxication and passing a bad check, but he says he learned from those mistakes. “I’m sure I wouldn’t be the first to admit that I had a couple of missteps when I was a teenager – some 20 odd years ago,” says the Austin, Tex., bar owner. “Some of the claims have been blown out of proportion but I took responsibility for my actions and took immediate measures to remedy the situation.” “It was just growing pains. I was still young and na

Ali Fedotowsky Picks Obvious Bachelor Favorites

You don’t really need The Bachelor spoilers or the reigning Bachelorette, Ali Fedotowsky, to tell you who Brad Womack has eyes for this season. Ali’s top pick, if she were doling out roses on Brad’s behalf? Southern sweetie Emily Maynard, the 24-year-old widow and single mom. Shocker! “I think he’d be a great match with Emily,” Ali said. “Sweet, southern, knockout, beautiful beautiful. She seems like a total package to me.” Are Chantal O’Brien (left) and Emily Maynard locks for hometown dates? The Fox 5 San Diego correspondent, who visited The Bachelor to “assist Brad” with fiance Robert Martinez, also clicked with Chantal O’Brien . “She’s so raw – matter of fact, down-to-earth,” Fedotowsky said. “I don’t know as much about a match with Brad, but I like her personally.” Those are our two picks to make the final rose ceremony as well. We just get a feeling they have an edge over all the other girls, don’t you? What do you think? Brad Womack should totally pick …

Brad WHOA-mack: The Bachelor Has a Criminal History

When this season of The Bachelor premiered, contestants were noticeably wary of Brad Womack because he left both finalists with a broken heart during his first run on the show. But suitors now have a new reason to worry: Womack is a criminal!!! According to police records, Brad was arrested in 1993 for forging a Texas driver’s license. Did ABC miss this infraction during its background check because Womack was booked under his birth name, Stephen Bradley Pickelsimer? Or did the network not care because he’s just so gosh darn handsome? This felony counterfeiting charge netted Womack 180 days of probation. Meanwhile, Star Magazine also reports that the bachelor was busted for public intoxication and for passing a bad check. Consider yourself warned, Emily Maynard .

Jennifer Aniston Doesn’t "Get" The Bachelor

Like much of America, Jennifer Aniston is mesmerized by The Bachelor . Also like much of America (at least we hope), she can’t take it seriously. “You know what I find fascinating? The Bachelor, ” she says as part of her Allure cover story . “I’m mesmerized by how the girls meet this guy, have three dates together or something, then weep as though they’ve just lost the love of their life.” “I just don’t understand that.” ELIGIBLE BACHELORETTE : Despite her perennial single status, don’t expect Jen to pine for Brad Womack the next time ABC has him star on The Bachelor . Typical of Hollywood’s most notorious lonely girl to thumb her nose at the genuine stories of romance and love that unfold before our eyes every Monday. If Jen had seen Emily Maynard open up to Brad this week, we doubt she’d question the sincerity of those tears. Cue cards can’t script that kind of drama. We do see her point, though. Every time crazy stalker Michelle Money whines about how Brad is “mine” and laments “sharing,” we question her lucidity.

Will Emily Maynard Win The Bachelor?

We give The Bachelor a hard time for being scripted and packed with contrived nonsense on a weekly basis, but last night was legitimately emotional and warm. All thanks to Emily Maynard. Just three weeks in, she’s already proven one of the sweetest, most likable and most beautiful contestants in Bachelor history. How do you not get behind that? Emily Maynard Opens Up to Brad As we discussed in our official recap of last night’s episode, not even this group of catty, crazy chicks can find a reason to hate her. That’s saying something! Her one-on-one date with Brad Womack, which we’ve posted in its entirety above, started off awkwardly because she was afraid to open up to the guy. Unlike typical Bachelor baloney, however, she’s guarded for good reason. Her story even left a vampire in tears, and Brad was understandably moved. Will she make it far? The Bachelor spoilers we’ve compiled so far indicate she’s got a good shot. Will she get engaged and become Mrs. Brad Womack? If not, she’d better be The Bachelorette. Start the campaign now.

Jamie Laou: The Australian Justin Bieber?

With apologizes to The Vampire Diaries , a different kind of doppelganger is wreaking havoc and garnering headlines on the Internet. Meet Jamie Laou . The 17-year old Australian looks eerily like Justin Bieber and has used this resemblance to make a major name for himself. Meet Jamie Laou In late 2009, Laou kicked off a run of live Webcam performances. Simply based on his appearance, viewers around the world assume he was Bieber. When the Sydney native revealed the truth, many of these fans stuck around. Laou now has over 50,000 Twitter followers and attracts as many as 7,000 people to his YouTube videos, which he continues to broadcast. Last week, in fact, Laou challenged Bieber on Twitter, suggesting that the young icon had lost touch with his supporters. Wrote Jamie: “If Justin love his beliebers so much why hasnt he kept posting youtube videos. Since thats why we subscribed him in the first place?” Bieber replied and the two worked things out over private Tweets. But a rival has clearly emerged to the Biebs. Think Laou has staying power?
