We’ve heard plenty of gossip about this year’s Bachelor. Jake Pavelka, now a contestant on Dancing with The Stars, chose controversial contestant Vienna Girardi, who was portrayed as the villain this season. A woman claiming to be Jake’s ex girlfriend later came forward with a story that Jake attempted to rig the show by having her on as a contestant. She also claimed Jake told her loved her – after he proposed to Vienna.

There’s plenty of dirt about Vienna, too, including a story from her ex husband, who claims she cheated on him when he was deployed to Iraq and emptied out his savings account to pay for a boob job. In Touch ran a recent related story that Vienna plans to get a ton of plastic surgery in order to achieve the same level of infamy as Ken Doll post-op Heidi Montag.

The National Enquirer had more about Vienna’s family. In March, they reported that her mom runs a peanut stand out of a trailer on the highway in Geneva, Florida. She lives in another trailer with her husband behind the stand, and “loves to smoke weed and drink Mountain Dew. And her friends are a bunch of men who sit around the peanut stand smoking pot with her.”

Vienna may have met her last boyfriend through her pothead mom. A guy that Vienna dated up until she went on the show was just arrested in what Radar Online calls “in the biggest drug bust in Central Florida’s history.” Chase Alley and his partners were busted in an elaborate sting. The guy was some kind of major marijuana dealer, and faces charges of money laundering, drug trafficking, importing and racketeering.

The 23-year-old, who won the heart of the Bachelor, dated Chase Alley until she left Florida for the Los Angeles taping of The Bachelor. Alley was arrested March 5 in the biggest drug bust in Central Florida’s history.

He was charged on 50 counts of buying, selling and possessing marijuana. He was also charged with money laundering and drug trafficking and importing. And he faces racketeering charges, which means he could be sentenced to 20 years in prison.”

Almost overnight, Vienna went from an accused drug baron to a bible-thumper. As RadarOnline.com first reported last month Jake told an ex-girlfriend: “I believe that God wants me to go on the Bachelor to lead these women into Christianity.”

Chase was allegedly running his drug ring the entire time he dated Vienna, but Chase’s long-time friend Andrew Bachanov told RadarOnline.com exclusively, “he never told his girls about the drugs.”

After Vienna was introduced to Chase on the University of Central Florida campus Andrew said, “she made all the moves on him.

Andrew said things developed quickly between the couple: “She would cook for him. She did all the wifey things for him.”

In fact, after dating Chase for a month she spent her last night in Florida with him and cooked Chicken Marsala for Chase, Andrew and some other friends.

Andrew told RadarOnline.com that Vienna “walked around like a celebrity before becoming one.” She wore Ed Hardy bikinis, sunglasses and caps. “She had an expensive bag she carried her dog around with,” he said.

Everyone knew she was going to be on The Bachelor, and Andrew says Chase dated her “because she was going to be famous.”

But now Chase has achieved his own type of fame, or infamy.

He made headlines when he was one of 41 people arrested in the massive million dollar drug bust and gun raid.

I’m so sure Vienna had “no idea” what her boyfriend was up to and how he made all the money he was undoubtedly flashing around. Maybe she didn’t care and saw him as her ticket to more nips and tucks.
