Brad Womack: I Found Love on The Bachelor!

The Bachelor kicks off Monday, January 3, and amid questions of whether he’s ready this time, Brad Womack has revealed his first major spoiler so far. Well, we actually have all The Bachelor spoilers for this season. Including who he picks. Follow the link if you want to know. Here’s what Brad reveals: “I did find love. I’m very happy to say that. I’m a happy guy. It was completely different for several reasons. I was much more open to the process.” “I just had a great time.” – Brad Womack The 38-year-old hunk says he did not feel the pressure to pick someone this time and “would not let anyone pressure [him] to make a decision.” But finding love was always important to Brad Womack , so when the show approached him, he felt “really, really honored to be asked again.” “I felt like I was given a second chance. I was definitely ready,” says Womack. “I’m so happy to be able to say there is a very happy ending .” “I did find somebody, I did fall in love. A true love story happened.” Despite the happy ending, the experience didn’t start out that way. Womack admits he was very nervous about facing the bachelorettes. “I was very anxious. I was excited, of course, but I was very anxious, which turned to nerves. I was a nervous wreck,” laughs Womack. “I thought it would be easier because I’d gone through it before, but it made it more difficult. I didn’t know what the girls would think.” “It was very overwhelming. I fielded quite a few questions that first night, where I gave each and every woman a chance to ask anything.” “I calmed their fears that I was there for the right reason.” At the beginning of the season, Brad also got to see the two women he did not choose the first time, DeAnna Pappas and Jenni Croft . “It was a complete shock because I truly had no idea they were going to be there,” says Womack. “Jenni and DeAnna are incredible women.” “They were a little bit tough on me, but after we talked for awhile, all was forgiven and the three of us moved on. I gained some closure there.”

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens: It’s Over!

I don’t know what it was with Vanessa, but we kind of clicked from the very beginning. – Zac Efron, July 2007 Those words are difficult to read today for fans of the couple known as Zanessa, as E! News has broken the shocking news: Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens have split. “They were together for so long. It just ran its course,” an insider says of the break-up, while another source swears the pair remains friends and that “no third party” was involved. As is often the case with celebrity couples, scheduling may have played a role in Zac and Vanessa’s demise. They met on the set of High School Musical and have been together for years, but their careers have taken them to different parts of the world recently. For instance: Efron is currently shooting The Lucky One in New Orleans, while Hudgens is wrapping up Journey 2: The Mysterious Island later this week in Hawaii. It’s a sad day for those of us who believed we’d be celebrating a Zanessa wedding in the near future, but let’s not cry because it’s over. Let’s smile because all of this happened…

DeAnna Pappas and Jenni Croft to Return, Grill Brad Womack on The Bachelor

Brad Womack rejected Jenni Croft and DeAnna Pappas on the Bachelor a few seasons ago. This time around, we have a hunch he ends up engaged at the end. Engaged to … well, read The Bachelor spoilers here if you’re curious. In any case, Jenni and DeAnna will return to confront Brad when his second stint as the show’s leading man commences January 3. Can you say awkward? So … what have you girls been up to? A previously released promo already revealed that Womack will be greeted with a slap by one of the aspiring women this season, an event that sets the tone. Producers say many of the women will “question his intentions” and grill Brad Womack with “tough questions” despite his “radical personal transformation.” We imagine Jenni and DeAnna have a couple of things to read off the cue cards say to the man who broke their hearts. We can see some thrown drinks, too.

The Bachelor kicks off its new season, and its second starring Brad Womack, on January 3, but we have a deluge of spoilers for you right here, right now. Including the winner, already. Yes, the winner. We don’t relish the idea of divulging this information, but this is THG. It’s what we do. You have the opportunity to exit this article right now. Still here? Nice. So who gets engaged to Brad Womack ? For that piece of information and everything that happens between The Bachelor season premiere and the final rose ceremony, follow the jump … Somehow, the great Reality Steve has unearthed all this info, and the man is never wrong. Well, almost never. We don’t doubt him in this case, anyway. His site actually has much more information than we’ve posted here, but this is everything important. Here are the 20 girls who survive the premiere: Alli Travis: 24, buyer for Abercrombie & Fitch, lives in Ohio. Ashley Hebert: 25, Madawaska, Maine. A longtime ex boyfriend died right before she came on the show. Currently attending dental school. Ashley Spivey: 25, nanny from NY, gets the first impression rose, father died two years ago, which is probably going to be her story line. Britt Billmaier: 24 or 25, Seattle, WA. Stanford grad, is a chef. Chantal O’Brien: 28, Mercer Island, WA. Chantal is the daughter of Mike O’Brien, former Seattle Seahawks star. Married from 2005-2009. Emily Maynard: 24, Charlotte, N.C.. Mother of daughter Ricki, whose dad is NASCAR’s Ricky Hendrick, who died while Emily was pregnant. Jackie Gordon: 27 or 28, from Rhode Island, currently lives in New York City.

Here are the hometown dates in order of filming: Emily Maynard (Charlotte, NC). Chantal O’Brien (Mercer Island, WA). Shawntel Newton (Chico, CA). Ashley Hebert (Madawaska, ME). Shawntel Newton is eliminated at the rose ceremony. The overnight dates in South Africa play out with no dramatic exits for anyone, and the eventual elimination of Ashley Hebert. Sorry Ash. The season finale , therefore, pits Emily Maynard against Chantal O’Brien, and ultimately, Brad Womack chooses … Chantal O’Brien . They’re still together, too. On Thanksgiving, Brad was in Palm Desert, Calif., with Chantal O’Brien and her family celebrating Thanksgiving. Fun footnote: Chantal is the girl who bitch-slaps him the first night as she steps out of the limo who slaps Brad, as seen in the previews! Well choreographed, ABC! That’s all for now. More details to come as they become available and as the episodes air! We’ll update this page frequently all season …

THG Presents: The 10 Biggest Turkeys of 2010

Happy Thanksgiving to all from The Hollywood Gossip! What would this holiday be without family, food, football and reflection upon the things we appreciate most … in the case of THG, that means some of the bird-brained celebs we’ve had the privilege of covering in the past year. Without further ado, THG’s Top 10 Turkeys of ’10 … We may rename this the Spencer Pratt Thanksgiving Turkey Award. 10. Barack Obama . The good will and immense popularity enjoyed by the President at the start of his White House term eroded fast, leaving in its wake a deeply polarized electorate and a Congress destined for partisan gridlock. 9. Jake Pavelka. Lame stints on The Bachelorette , The Bachelor and DWTS were enough to overcook this turkey, but his televised breakup special with fake fiancee Vienna Girardi was the year’s reality TV douchepocalypse. 8. The Kardashians. Sure, they’re harmless, but there’s so darn many of these girls. Mix in a hearty helping of Scott Disick and we’re just burned out. 7. LeBron James. The NBA’s best player, who has never won a title, made this summer all about him and his decision on where to play next year. A “decision” that marked the most absurd, narcissistic, self-serving stunts in sports history. 6. Spencer Pratt. He’s fallen off from 2008’s Top Turkey status, but he’s got staying power. Faking a divorce, getting married for a third time in as many years, blowing through $10 million and turning into a mountain man? Impressive. 5. Dancing With the Stars voters . Bristol Palin? Seriously people? 4. Lindsay Lohan. The definition of train wreck. Second only to … 3. Charlie Sheen. His violent altercation with wife Brooke Mueller last Christmas combined with Capri Anderson dalliances this fall? Quite a year for Charlie. 2. Mel Gibson. Why? Just listen to his rants . Wow. 1. Tiger Woods. Today, or more accurately early tomorrow morning, is the anniversary of Tiger’s car (and image) crash, following a blowout with Elin Nordegren, who learned of his affair with Rachel Uchitel and took a 9-iron to his face. The months that followed revealed additional mistresses, worried voicemails, nasty text messages , sordid fantasies, ridiculous rumors and bad golf. It’s a scandal that may never be equaled, and certainly worthy of Top Turkey billing. If nothing else … Tiger Woods’ Thanksgiving can’t be worse than last year’s .
