1. "It's complete bullsh*t." The Bachelor's Bella has denied meeting Locky before the show.

Bachelorfrontrunner Bella Varelis has responded to the rumours that she met Locky before the show began filming and she's not having any of it, thank you very much.

The rumours first emerged in an episode of podcast So Dramatic! when eliminated contestant, Nadine Kodsi aired her suspicions about who would win the show.

"I honestly think Bella is going to win and the reason why I think that is because I personally think it was set up," she told host Megan Pustetto.

"Apparently they met in Bali and she basically made an agreement to go on the show and then they’d be together. Now it’s so obvious because if you were there on the night, I actually said 'you are going to win'.

Speaking to the Herald Sun yesterday, Bella responded to the claims, sharing: "I haven’t been to Bali in five years and it genuinely baffles me the lengths people will go to."

"I’d never even watchedSurvivor," she added.

"I didn’t even have a conversation with Nadine. I don’t listen to it [podcast] because 99 per cent of it would be complete bullsh*t."

Point made.

2. Oh. Dancing With The Stars' Sharna Burgess has confirmed she was asked to be The Bachelorette.

It turns out Elly Miles and her sister Becky weren't the first option forThe Bacheloretteafter all.

Dancing with the Starsjudge Sharna Burgess has confirmed rumours that she was asked to beThe Bachelorettethis season, but decided to turn the offer down.

"I was initially like, 'Sure.' I mean, that could be fun. And then as I got into it, there was something that didn’t feel right, which is odd because I love the show worldwide," she said in an interview with Us Weekly.

"For some reason, my instincts were saying, 'Don’t do it,' which was very bizarre. I’ve had to trust my instincts my whole life, they’ve led me to where I am now."

The 35-year-old explained that she was a big fan of the franchise, but that being based in Los Angeles would complicate starting a relationship.

"I live here, you know?" she added.

"So it also makes more sense for me to do it here. I don’t have plans to permanently move back to Australia. I would love to be half and half, you know, go to Australia and work, but my life is based here.

"I want to raise my kids here... It feels like it makes more sense. There’s less questions at the end of it for me, like, 'OK, well where do we live? And what do we do?' It makes more sense for me."
