Brad Womack on The Bachelor

He may have broken everyone’s hearts on the 11th season of The Bachelor, but that doesn’t mean Brad Womack is a bad guy … right? ABC hopes so hopes not, which is why they have re-booked the mustachioed man for the 15th installment of the reality series.

Womack, who famously left DeAnna Pappas and Jenni Croft roseless back in 2007, apparently thinks love can be found the reality-stunt way. “I don’t care if people call me an idiot or don’t believe those words coming out of my mouth,” Brad tells Ellen DeGeneres on Tuesday’s broadcast of her show.
