ABC has confirmed ET‘s report that Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi will be interviewed side-by-side by Bachelor host Chris Harrison. The interview will air on the July 5 episode of The Bachelorette; it will be the first time Pavelka and Girardi sit down together for an interview following their break-up.
UPDATE: ABC also confirms that while production on Bachelor Pad has wrapped, Pavelka will appear on the show “in some capacity.”

I don’t care. These people are not celebrities.
Nobody cares. This is called “filler time”. Very sad actually.
Coming up with excuse after excuse to not kiss/sleep with her is ridiculous, I’d be all up in that girl in a heartbeat. He did after all pick her and even propose to her, now he’s not showing any love? He’s obviously gay and just a fame whore.
I wouldn’t be all up in Vienna. There isn’t enough penicillin to kill what you might catch.
Just what these fame wh*res need…more time on tv.
Right. I’m pretty sure they broke up just so that they could be on the Bachelor Pad. Didn’t someone actually already write that, right here no EW?
I would laugh out loud if he reveals he’s been dating Tenley.
why, why , why??? People have broken up on this show before and there was never a need for an interview. Another example of them just wanting to keep the 15 minutes going…
Just let it lie.
Beth…I think the producer, Mike Fleiss, is the one who wants to prolong the 15 minutes. The more drama there is, the more we watch his shows, and the more $$ goes into his pocket.
Bingo. He is going to milk this cow — or horse — as much as he can, and they are all the more willing to go with it.
hey! some of us viewers want to hear the juicy details! i can’t wait to see what they have to say
Who are these people and why are they famous?
TO BETH: You have expressed my feelings exactly, so I’ll just add that Jake should be told his 15 minutes are up. Enough already with the both of them…just goooo away.
i know. the latest people has jake on the cover. enough!!!
That will give Jake time to learn lines for July 5th as I am sure it will be scripted. We all knew this was not a match made to last!
I hope Handsome Harrison slaps them both and kicks them out off stage saying “you make me sick, like strawberry quick and Joel McHale”.
To which Jake says “You don’t understand! I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I could’ve been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am.”
CH is really no different than the people who go on that crappy show.
ITA. I used to like Chris, first discovering him on TLC and Designer Challenge; now not so much. I can’t believe he’s still associated with this piece of a crap show. Plus he’s lied after Reality Steve bust the bubble open on this farce. Why do we keep tuning in?
Is he finally coming out of the closet? Otherwise, with others they just want the publicity.
The whole aftermath of this private breakup is being fueled by producer Mike Fleiss’s desire to boost viewership for his 3 shows and pad his wallet!! Doesn’t anyone find it strange that the couple will be interviewed on the Bachelorette on July 5?? This is ALI’s show for heaven sake. I guess she wasn’t getting good enough ratings. Also strange how this just happened to occur in time for Jake to put in an appearance on the Bachelor Pad. Remember when Fleiss threw Jason under the bus by televising a fake breakup with Melissa. Oh, the drama!!! And poor poor poor Melissa…who was dating her current husband before the show even started. The breakup actually happened weeks before the TV show, and was no surprise to anyone. I wish Fleiss would look for more ways to encourage romance and lasting love…and fewer ways to encourage drunkeness and drama, starting with the casting.
As long as the drama keeps lining his pockets with cash, Fleiss isn’t changing a thing.
Melissa Rycroft needs to get run over by a bus….can’t stand that skank.
Maybe they will be on After the After the Final Rose.
And then will they go away?
WHY? Why is ABC putting their two biggest fame wh.ores back on tv….again???? Thats exactly what these two leeches want; more face time and an extended 15 minutes.
Their relationship was fake to begin with, so why waste airtime with these two pathetic pieces of crap? Screw them both… And screw you, ABC, for putting them back on TV.
13 bachelors and 3 bachelorettes have broken up with the recepients of their final rose. Why all the hand wringing and spilled ink about Jake and Vienna?
I think ABC is planning on having Jake and Ali hook up after her horrible stint as “The Bachelorette” ends with her choosing nobody! Then at the After the Final Rose show, Jake will come out an express his undying love and they will live happily ever after…YUCK!!
Why do people continue to watch this show, when it always ends the same?
Here’s an idea … read a book.
