Jimmy Kimmel is about to lose a lot of money.
The talk show host, 42, admits in an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show to air Friday that he's addicted to The Bachelor -- and he bet $100,000 that Jake Pavelka will end up with Ali, who left the show but had been making pleas to come back.

"We'll have to watch," jokes Kimmel. "I got a $100,000 [bet] riding on this... I have a real problem."
What does Kimmel have against Vienna, who -- as Us first reported -- drained $5,000 from her ex-fiance's bank account to get a boob job while he was serving as a Marine in Iraq?
See Bachelorette bikini bodies!
"She's weird," he quips of the former Hooters girl, 23. "She's crazy.

"If he picks Vienna... I'll just say this: If he thinks that is a good decision, I don't want him flying my plane," Kimmel goes on of Pavelka, who is a pilot.
Past Bachelor stars: where are they now?
"That's not Sully Sullenberger-type decision making," he continues, referring to the pilot who landed a plane safely in New York City's Hudson River in 2009.
Kimmel insists, "I think Ali is the pick."
Tell Us What You Think
22she is only in for the money,NOT FOR LOVE,his family dont like the B,jake wake up and smell the coffee.
CAPS YES! GOOD FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE VISION PROBLEM!
IS THIS WHERE I GO TO TYPE IN CAPS!!!1!11!!!!?
WHY DOES JIMMY KISS FAKE ASSS KHATE G. ASSS SO MUCH? WHO THE HELL CARES WHAT HE THINKS!
ASHLEY JIMMY KIMMEL HAS MORE CLASS ON HIS CHUBBY FINGER THAN JAY" BIG BABY" LENO WILL EVER HAVE. AND WHO STILL WATCHES THE BACHELOR? LET IT GO PEOPLE.ITS A SHOW WITH DUMB WOMAN AND A DUMB HORNEY MAN.DUMB SHOW FOR DUMB PEOPLE.ITS NO BETTER THAN THOSE AWFUL MTV DATING SHOWS
Totally agree with Kimmel...that was my guess too...
Jake is a great guy....and Ali belongs w/Jake...Vienna is just his toy girl..he looked very sad on the WTA show! Go GET your NO!1 Ali seems to love more than allofthe 24 bachelorettes\\all the best to u an ALI!
Yes indeed, Alli is the best bet for him and not these last two leftovers. Alli has more character and outstanding persobality. Jake should know better,but he may not know. No matter who he eventually ends up with, (already done though) these ladies have already hundreds of miles on their speedometers!!! Not a good deal. His best bet for a "good" wife would have been to just fish around his neighborhoods and not the "Bachelor Show".
I think he should pick Ali that was the best one for him
Jake knows what good for him and he will follow his heart because he gets to live with that person not US. Vienna will be a good wife to any Man that married her.
Funny how Ali had to leave the show because of her job. But, oh, she may leave her job to be the next Bachelorette. Yea, right. This show is a fake.
He picked the worst last 2 girls vienna is too cheap for him and the all she talks about is her ex husband is a joke neither will last
He will pick Vienna. I have read spoilers. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
I will watch Ali if she becomes the next bachelorette just to see her make an fool of herself and chase the men away.
When Ali left the show for her job and not because she didn't receive a rose then Kimmel should not be held accountable to losing the 100 thousand dollars.
Besides, I don't think Jimmy should have to pay up until Jake has put a wedding ring on someone's finger. Who's to say he WON'T end up with Ali?
Gosh, El, would you like to give us the source of your "exclusive" information? Don't be an idiot - the ONLY people who know if Jake and Vienna are CURRENTLY engaged are the two of them.Even if he did propose, that was months ago - and we all know how long Bachelor and Bachelorette engagements last. Stop trying to puff yourself up by claiming to know things you can't possibly know - it just makes you look foolish.
Well, I guess he just lost 100k b/c not only is Vienna the winner, but I know for a fact they are engaged and Ali already signed on to be the next bachorette. Dumb ass!
I never thought I would agree with Jimmy on anything, but he is so right about Vienna, and Jake's lack of decision making ability if he picks her. I don't think he flies for a major airline, though, so we'll still be safe:o)
I agree that Ali should be the pick, but I think it will be Vienna, and I don't want him flying my plane either. I was very impressed with him at first until he let this girl pull the wool over his eyes. I don't really think that Tensley is right for him either, but Ali is. I think that his ego was just hurt when she left.
