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.

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..

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 …

Michelle Williams Proud To Show Her Daughter ‘Blue Valentine’ Someday

‘I feel like I could stand behind it,’ actress says of racy NC-17-rated film. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Michelle Williams Photo: MTV News Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling have an NC-17-rated, rather-depressing love affair in their new, buzzy flick “Blue Valentine.” The film follows a married couple over the course of their relationship and boasts some graphic sex scenes to help weave the tale. So, is Williams nervous about her daughter, Matilda, checking out the film one day? “I’ve been thinking about that recently, the last couple days,” she told MTV News at a junket for the film. “I thought, ‘What would her reaction to that be?’ “I feel proud of this movie, and I feel like I could stand behind it when she grows up and says, ‘What were you doing for those two months in Pennsylvania?’ I feel like I could say, ‘This is what I made.’ ” The film, which opens on New Year’s Eve, may be too dark for a child to see, but much of Williams’ post-“Dawson’s Creek” work has been thought-provoking, something she said she’ll be proud to share with her daughter someday. “And I feel like that with most of my work now: I feel like I’m excited for the day when she’s old enough to see it, because my aim is to make her proud that the time I spent away from her wasn’t in vain,” she explained. While any mother/daughter viewings of “Blue Valentine” are yet to be determined, right now the pair is happy watching more family-friendly fare. “She kind of lives in a Mary Poppins world,” Williams said. ” ‘Singing in the Rain’ is our current.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .
