Talk about a stretch: on an upcoming episode of Drop Dead Diva, Jake Pavelka plays a single guy looking for love as the cameras role for a reality TV competition.
"You're not gonna see Jake," Pavelka insisted of his performance while guest-hosting Good Morning Texas on Friday.
"I am acting! This is a fictitious character that I came up with in my head," single-again Pavelka explains.

Recently split from fiancee Vienna Girardi, Pavelka plays Toby Davlin, star of a fictitious, Bachelor-esque show on the "Good Grief" episode of the Lifetime series.
"He has similar life experiences but made very different choices...he's not that nice of a guy."
On the episode, Toby dumps show contestant Wendy (Camile Guaty), who bursts into tears after the rejection and sues the show's producers for inflicting emotional pain. On the witness stand, Toby quips that he was "just looking out for myself" during the romantic misadventure.

Pavelka -- who notes that he acted on several episodes of Walker Texas Ranger -- said Friday that his Drop Dead Diva stint was "just a dream come true."
Tell Us: will you tune in for Jake's Drop Dead Diva cameo?
Tell Us What You Think
29Maybe he can come up with a 'fictitional' honest guy "in his head" and make it his reality. The guy is a terrible actor. He couldn't even make reality look real!
Also, he "came up" with the character in his head? Maybe the writers did. Tool.
Haha, he "acted" on Walker, Texas Ranger? That might be the only time in history when Chuck Norris wasn't the most wooden actor on the show.
It's safe to come out of the closet, Jake. Besides, Vienna already outed you in Star Magazine. A man who REFUSES to touch his naked fiance is GAY. In fact, Vienna claims he would only give her a peck on the cheek if she begged! Yet, when the cameras were rolling he pretented to be all over her. He's a gay, closeted phony.
jake has only ever wanted to act, we were duped when he came back for jillian. HOW LONG TILL 15 MINUTES ARE UP?
I watch the show, but won't be watching this episode!
I cant stand this big terd! I just looked at his twitter account, he's doing his best to extend his 15 minutes in Hollywood, what a effing joke he is! Atleast Vienna is getting back to her life. And No, I wasn't a huge fan of hers on the show. But look how he's behaving vs. her.
Jake Pavelka is a total d-bag and I wish he would GET OFF MY TELEVISION!!! I am sick of seeing his "aw shucks" shtick everywhere when he just wants to be famous more than anything else.
I think anyone trying to find love on reality shows aren't really going to Find Love. Love and relationships take time and these shows don't allow for real relationships to develop. And since they are trying to make money by being on tv, I don't think the people are being themselves, instead they are acting for the camera. AND since they have choosen to to put themselves on tv, i dont' feel badly for them at all. By this time they know how these reality shows work and therefore they only have themselves to blame. If you are going to purposely put your life in the public eye, then you get what is coming to you. Grow up and get real.
This guy is a PIG and Vienna although I do not condone, it's easy to see you being lonely and growing apart,the only thing this guy has done is go on TV and stroke his ego. He acts as if he's a big celebrity and hasn;t worked as a Pilot since he started reality stuff like the Bachelorette. Vienna you esacped and you should be happy.
She is my favorite, I love her bag. I have been looking at various sites, I recently found ****n i c e g r a d e b a g s.C oM******* is the best restaurant I found was, and so what quickly take a look, and may be able to give you a lot of surprises Oh
He has ruined my favorite show! Jerk!
God this guy is SUCH a tool! Vienna - thank your lucky stars that however it happened, you got out when you did. There is no room for a third person after this guy & his ego.
NARROW ESCAPE VIENNA....BUT NONE OF US BELIEVED EVEN YOU COULD PUT UP WITH HIS FAKE FAKE FAKE PERSONALITY...EVEN SHALLOW PEOPLE CAN'T SERIOUSLY MARRY OTHER SHALLOWER ONES...JAKE IS A CREEP IF HE IS ANYTHING LIKE HE WAS ON BACHELOR...LOL..HE COULDNT ACT EVEN THEN...
JAKE IS A TOSSER , SIMPLE AS
God, he looks like such a dipsh!t..same doofy expression all the time.
when will it end? I was kind of looking forward to The Bachelor Pad until I heard Jake was going to be on it. I like competetion type shows. He'll probably cry when his azz gets booted off.
Sure, I'd love to tune in. Jake is not new to acting. Walker, Texas Ranger was a great show.
I will not be tuning in for Jake's Cameo on Drop Dead Diva!
