After leaving Bachelor Jake Pavelka for her job, only to return the next week just to be rejected, fan favorite Ali Fedotowsky is stoking rumors that she may be the next Bachelorette.

"That would be so nice," Ali told Ellen Degeneres about following in Trista, Meredith, Jen, DeAnna and Jillian's footsteps. "I would be so flattered."

On last night's episode, Ali, who left Jake due to a work conflict, begged the pilot to take her back, but he declined, saying he had a stronger connection with the three women left. He eventually eliminated Gia, leaving Tenley and (spoiler alert!) Vienna, whom rumor has it he ultimately chooses.

Even Ali is beginning to believe the Vienna hype! She tells Ellen she was shocked by "the connection that Vienna and Jake have... I didn't realize that was happening behind the scenes or when I wasn't around. They look like a good couple. I actually think it could be Vienna."

So do we!
