March 5 2010, Published 9:36 a.m. ET
The Bachelor's Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Thursday night, and RadarOnline.com has the best banter between the witty late night host and reality TV's newest “it” couple.
The interview started with Kimmel bringing up Vienna's bad girl rep in the tabloids, to which she defended saying, "I have a huge personality that was even more amplified on the show."
Vienna told Kimmel she feels Jake's family has accepted her, as she said she talks to his mother “two times a day.”
As for Jake's upcoming stint on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars alongside beautiful dance partner Chelsie Hightower, Vienna said she would be "his biggest cheerleader in the front row every show."
"Chelsea can have him on the dance floor," Vienna said. "But he comes home to me."
Kimmel, who admittedly lost a $100,000 wager to Ellen DeGeneres on the show's outcome (betting on Vienna's love rival Tenley), broke down Jake's decision-making in his inimitable way.

Said Kimmel: "It's like, 'Oh I really like Tenley, but when it's time to get naked, you run to Vienna!"
The 800-pound elephant in the room however, were the repeated jokes Kimmel directed at Vienna's expense during the past few months.
Vienna got the last laugh, presenting Kimmel with a door prize after his big loss to Ellen: a 100 Grand Candy Bar.
