Ali Fedotowsky Named The Bachelorette!

by at .

As we've predicted for weeks, the lovely Ali Fedotowsky was announced as the next star of The Bachelorette on last night's "After the Final Rose" reunion special.

The foregone conclusion was announced in the hour of filler following The Bachelor season finale, during which star Jake Pavelka somehow picked Vienna Giradi.

Ali Fedotowsky was a fan favorite on The Bachelor and made Jake's final four, but left of her own accord following a successful hometown date in Massachusetts.

Ostensibly, she left because she feared losing her job at Facebook. In reality, she may have been angling (or being groomed) for The Bachelorette spot all along.

Regardless, she made a passionate, likely contrived plea to return to The Bachelor, but Jake shot her down, saying he'd gotten too close to the remaining girls.

Spurned by Jake Pavelka, but also by her own dubious reasons for leaving The Bachelor in the first place, Ali Fedotowsky will get another chance to find love on reality TV.

So there was Jake's one-time front-runner, broken up and out of luck. Until she quit her job (her last day was Friday) for an even better reality TV opportunity.

 "I'm flattered and I really feel great," she told Chris Harrison, who will again serve as host-pimp. "I am so thrilled and honored and grateful. I can't believe it."

"I'm not going to let fear dictate my life anymore," Ali said of her past apprehension this season. Mike Fleiss dictating it? That she's apparently all good with.

What do you think of the decision? Are you a card-carrying member of Team Ali, or would you have preferred Tenley Molzahn or somebody new all together?

Will Ali make a good Bachelorette?

    I'm glad they picked Ali! She is a very sweet girl and she deserves to happy after everything she went threw. I think other people are just jealous of Ali. Me and my husband will be watching the show can't wait. Good luck to you Ali!

    I am surprised at these vicious attacks from people who don't know the person they are slandering. Scary. Ali is my niece and I know she is a gentle, loving person who took care of her grandma.

    Please....Ali is a cat. She was picked because she is manipulative and mean. OMG, I can't think of a better villain than this girl. Vicious little snake. She knew that Jake wasn't going to pick her so she left the show so that she wouldn't be sent home. She reminded me of a cartoon character, flumping flat footed, in her slow motion, head hung low, poor me act. It's a wonder she didn't crawl down the hall to Jakes bedroom door. She's on the next season because she is vivious and mean spirited. This is a nasty nasty girl.

    while watching the last season of the Bachelor, i always wondered what was Ali and some of the other women obsession with Viena . My point is they were not on the show for Viena they came for jake, so why didnt they focus on impressing Jake. infact i think their behaviour made him focus on Viena more. i think Gia would have been an excellent choice for the bachelorette if you are looking for a gorgeous woman with great qualities. I wish Jake and Viena the best.
