Coming Up Roses: Bachelor Pad

Ali & Roberto dress up for Halloween!

Ali and Roberto are...Mickey & Minnie Mouse for Halloween!

 

Wow, Ali looks adorable!  Can you believe she got Roberto to wear black tights?!  That is one secure man!  The happy couple says they are planning on taking some lucky kids trick-or-treating tonight.  She posted the picture and her plans on her Facebook fan page earlier today.

 

Last night, they reportedly hit up the Hard Rock Cafe in San Diego for a Halloween party.  They wore the same costumes you see here. 

 

LATE BREAKING NEWS: Ali just posted this on her Facebook page: "I need help from all my San Diego friends! R & I have decided to move! ♥ our place (Jillian just designed it & made it look beautiful), but we live in an industrial neighbor and nothing is really within walking distance. We want to be in a fun SD neighborhood so we can meet new ppl & have a favorite coffee shop :) Being able to walk to good places to eat & fun dive/sports bars is a must! Suggestion?"

 

They are moving from their love nest so soon?  Strange, but hey, if that will make them happy, hopefully Jillian can help design their new place too!

Brad Womack answers your questions on Facebook

Brad Womack, "The Bachelor", wants to quell your fears about him appearing on the show for the second time.  He's answering the top 10 most asked questions by his fans on Facebook.

 

As you can see, the first question Brad answers is: "What has changed about you since you were "The Bachelor" the first time that will make your experience different this time?"

 

I wasn't too thrilled with his response to be honest.  I mean, "what hasn't changed" and "I'm more open now" would mean a lot more with some specific examples...but maybe I expect too much!  I'm still excited to see him go through this whole process again. 

 

Brad plans to post his answers to the other 9 remaining questions, and I can't wait to share those answers with you too!  Also, check out the comments on his facebook fan page, some are brutal!

Another little Firestone on the way!

Us Magazine confirmed that Andrew Firestone and his wife Ivana Bozilovic are expecting their second child this coming April!

 

ABC caught up with Andrew in "Stories Behind the Rose" a few months back where he expressed that he was glad he did the show, so that he could find what he was looking for in a partner.  Well, it looks like he's found it!

 

The couple got married back in 2008 and have a 19-month-old son named Adam.  There's no word yet on if the new baby is a boy or a girl!

New article on Chris Lambton!

There's a new article out today that Chris Lambton posted on his facebook page.  The Cape Cod Times did an article on him, CLICK HERE TO READ IT.

 

I thought the paper asked all the right questions didn't you?  I still wish it was Chris that was the next "Bachelor" but it will be interesting to see if things turn out better for Brad this time around!

Brad Womack...a changed man?

Well as I'm sure you heard, Brad Womack is going to be the next "Bachelor".  ABC is calling him "a changed man", but is he?  I hope so!

There's the new promotional picture of Brad, and he is looking good!  Let's just hope his head and heart are in the right place this time around.  I'll admit, I am actually excited to see what happens this time around.  I just hope we're not all left with the same outcome.
