And The New ‘Bachelor’ Is…Jake Pavelka?

A 25-year-old Tennesse woman wants her time in the spotlight a little early as she appears to have spilled the beans about the upcoming ‘Bachelor.’

Former ‘Bachelorette‘ contestant Jake Pavelka will be the next ‘Bachelor,’ or so says Brittney Gammel — she claims to be one of the ladies that will try winning the heart of Pavelka.

ABC, however, isn’t ready to say anything official. “We are not going to confirm who The Bachelor is or if this woman is even one of the bachelorettes,” the network told Us Weekly.

This wouldn’t be the first time ABC used a reject from ‘The Bachelorette’ as last season’s Bachelor, Jason Mesnick, had been a runner-up during the fourth season.

An official announcement from ABC will happen during ‘Dancing With the Stars‘ on October 13. Gammel went on to say ‘The Bachelor’ starts shooting next month and will air in January.
