The Bachelor

Colton Underwood's in pure bliss, even though he's a virgin, because he's America's next 'Bachelor.'

The big reveal came Tuesday morning on 'GMA' as Colton -- famous for choosing football over sex -- gives love a third try. Remember, he was on Becca Kufrin's season last year and stunned her with the virgin bombshell. He still made it to the coveted hometown dates but was eliminated shortly thereafter.

Colton -- a former tight end who spent some time on practice squads with the Chargers, Raiders and Eagles -- later appeared on "Bachelor in Paradise" before breaking things off with Tia Booth. The 26-year-old says despite the taunts from fellow contestants after revealing he's never gone the distance, Colton says he'll remain true to himself as he tries to woo the one.

Fun fact: Colton was born on Super Bowl Sunday and was named after the Indianapolis Colts. Yeah, the team. Giddy up!!!

Colton Underwood thinks Becca Kufrin's 'Bachelorette' runner-up has what it takes to slip into "The Bachelor" tux next -- but he also thinks he ain't that special.

We got the ex-NFL stud, and famed virgin, Tuesday in Venice and he said Blake has a really good shot, especially after the emotional breakup scene ... which he considers authentic, raw emotion.

Not sure if Colton's vote of confidence carries much weight though, because he says all the other fan faves from this season -- and even an Arie-like old-timer -- are right there in the mix too. Fact is, Colton's playing coy for his top pick -- even when it comes to himself.

Corinne Olympios is giving all her haters a quick reminder about why Nick Viall handed her so many roses during "The Bachelor."

The self-described villain of Nick's season was recently doing her best baddie impression on the hot sand of Venice Beach, CA. Corinne effectively showed off several sides of her America did NOT get to see during her most recent TV appearance -- y'know when Sacha Baron Cohen kinda humiliated her.

The ole cream on the boobs trick wasn't enough to convince Nick, but these pics might help her get plenty of other suitors.

'Bachelorette' contestant Leandro Dottavio says former 'Bachelor' contestant Bekah Martinez should have done some research before publicly accusing him of sexually harassing women more than a decade ago ... when he was in college.

We got Leandro out in Encino Friday, and asked him about Bekah posting a bunch of screenshots alleging he behaved inappropriately with several women. The claims are numerous and pretty sordid -- Leandro ran through them with TooFab.

As for the allegation he sent unsolicited d**k pics -- Leandro says it's a flat-out lie, and he has a theory on Bekah's motives.

The guy who said Colton Underwood was "acting like a pussy" despite never being in one on 'The Bachelorette: Men Tell All' says an apology is warranted ... FROM Colton!

We spoke to Jean Blanc -- one of Becca Kufrin's suitors this season -- a day after his fiery exchange with Colton aired, and he burned Colton over being a virgin. It WAS a harsh zinger, but it also stole the show.

Jean Blanc, who released his own fragrance Toujours Rose, tells us that's not exactly what happened in the studio, and thinks he's the victim of editing. He claims Colton fired the first shot, calling HIM the p-word, but producers cut that out. So, the final edit made it look like Jean Blanc took a cheap shot.

Even though much of Bach nation thinks JB went too far -- especially after Colton cried about bullying -- he insists Colton needs to say sorry.

Corinne Olympios says her interview with Sacha Baron Cohen -- where she advocates grenades for kids -- is no reflection on her character, instead it only proves he strong-arms folks into looking stupid.

The 'Bachelor' alum was fully duped on Sunday's episode of Sacha's show, "Who Is America?," If you missed it ... she made crazy claims about saving Ebola-afflicted people in Africa, and pitched a bogus ad endorsing kids being weaponized.

It was NOT a good look for Corinne, who seemed willing to say and do anything for a buck. It's especially bad because Corinne was accused of lying during her 'BiP' controversy ... but Corinne tells us it's BS to conflate 'Bachelor' with what Sacha did to her.

Recently dumped 'Bachelorette' star Colton Underwood is shooting down Corinne Olympios' claim that he lied about his virginity, because he says he'd never admit it on national television if it weren't true.

Colton was a guest Tuesday on San Diego morning radio talk show 'Kramer & Geena,' where he was blindsided by the accusation. Colton not only stuck to his guns, but fired back, saying Corinne has no idea what she's talking about when it comes to the remaining bachelors since she said they "all suck." Colton says they're actually 4 stand-up guys.

Corinne told us Monday that she believes Colton, an ex-San Diego Charger, lied through his teeth for attention, but it ended up backfiring since he got the boot on Monday night's episode.

Corinne Olympios isn't buying what Colton Underwood is selling on this season of "The Bachelorette" -- insisting the ex-football player's already swiped his V card.

The villain from Nick Viall's 'Bachelor' season was in Venice on Monday when she weighed in on Colton confessing to Becca Kufrin that he's a virgin. He still got a rose, but Corinne thinks Becca got taken.

First off, she says Colton's too hot to still have unwrapped goodies. She also says his so-called confession is one guys use all the time for sympathy. That said, she thinks it's hurting him more than helping. He did get eliminated on this week's episode, so ... Corinne might've had a point.

As for whether the jock has what it takes to be the next 'Bachelor' ... Corinne scoffs and takes a shot at all of Becca's suitors this season. Bitter ... table for one?

Chris Harrison is back to matchmaking tonight ... but luckily for him, these eligible men already know how to put on a show!

'Bachelor' stars Arie Luyendyk Jr. and Lauren Burnham have been together long enough they're now answering questions almost exactly the same ... call it creepy cute.

We got Arie and Lauren on Wednesday leaving "The View" in NYC where they posed for pics with fans. Our guy asked the million dollar question -- will they watch Becca Kufrin's upcoming 'Bachelorette' season?

You'll recall Arie became public enemy No. 1 after blindsiding Becca and dumping her for Lauren ... in the cringeworthy 'Bachelor' finale. Watch ... Arie and Lauren were either coached on how to answer, or they're just starting to talk alike.

Btw ... Arie and Lauren are tying the knot Jan. 12 in Hawaii, a full year after meeting on 'Bachelor.' They made the announcement 5 days before Becca's premiere.

Channing Tatum is single again, so it'd only make sense that he chop it up with one of the most famous bachelors to play the field ... one Arie Luyendyk Jr.

Arie and Channing were hanging out Sunday in Birmingham, Alabama for the Honda Indy Grand Prix, where Channing was serving as the grand marshal of the race ... and, apparently, also got to ride around with Arie for a few laps on the track.

The ex-'Bachelor' even filmed a video of the two of them addressed to his fiancee, Lauren Burnham, in which Channing admitted he was about to do something stupid.

As you might've heard, Arie's happily engaged now -- but that doesn't mean he couldn't have lent some advice to Channing ... who recently separated from his wife, Jenna Dewan, after nearly nine years of marriage. Our guess -- put it in the rearview, bro ... literally.

Arie Luyendyk Jr and fiancee #2, Lauren Burnham, don't seem worried about their haters while they make out in the streets of Barcelona.

The 'Bachelor' couple left all the controversy behind and jetted off to Europe, first hitting Iceland and now Barcelona. Their PDA sesh is either a sign they're totally carefree now, or an obvious attempt to play it up for paparazzi.

Hard to tell when it comes to Arie, but after he dumped his first pick, Becca, he instantly became public enemy #1 in the eyes of 'Bachelor' fans ... so, great time for an extended vacay!

Interestingly, former 'Bachelor' Jason Mesnick, who similarly backtracked on his final rose pick, advised Arie to get the hell outta dodge, meaning L.A., due to all the hate from Bachelor Nation.

You know Arie Luyendyk Jr. has earned the Worst Bachelor Ever title when one of the franchise's most hated villains is throwing major shade his way.

We got Corinne Olympios leaving Craig's Tuesday night in WeHo with Jonathan Cheban, and when we asked her thoughts on Arie, she didn't exactly have nice things to say. Corinne is notorious for her own "Bachelor in Paradise" sex scandal, which debatably might've been topped by Arie dumping winner Becca Kufrin and weeks after proposing to runner-up Lauren Burnham while cameras were rolling.

Arie tried to do damage control on a live special Tuesday night called 'After the Final Rose,' but that didn't work. It takes time, just ask Corinne.

If there's an upside to having your heart broken and your engagement called off while cameras roll for a half hour, showing the world every excruciating moment ... Becca Kufrin's about to find out.

"The Bachelor" star -- fresh off of facing her former fiance Arie Luyendyk Jr. for the first time since he dumped her to pursue Lauren instead -- now has a second chance to find love as next season's 'Bachelorette' ... and will have 30 or so suitors to choose from.

Chris Harrison made the announcement during the extended "After the Final Rose" ceremony Tuesday night ... and the crowd went wild for the fan favorite.

Becca says despite the dramatic televised breakup with Arie, she's ready to move on, and gave a "hard yes" to being the next Bachelorette.

Good luck, Becca!

Sarah Hyland and new BF Wells Adams hit up Urban Outfitters Friday and found what they were looking for.

The freshly minted couple was perusing the aisles for clothes and housewares. The "Modern Family" star and the "Bachelor" contestant have been seen out a lot recently.

They went to the Lakers game Tuesday night and were way more into each other than the game ... or so it seemed.

Sarah Hyland and her bf, Wells Adams, had a busy Tuesday ... a little PDA, a little chit chat, and lots of pizza stuffin.

The "Modern Family" star spent the bulk of her Tuesday all over L.A. with the former 'Bachelor' contestant. They got handsy after a lunch date at Joan's on Third ... then went for a stroll and then shopping in Studio City. But there was more.

Sarah and Wells hit up the Lakers game in the evening and stuffed their faces with pizza. Bonus: the Lakers roared back to beat the Bulls.

All's well that ends ... with Wells.
