The Bachelor finale was exciting (if you can call it that) for a reason other than finding out that Jake chose Vienna ... Dancing With The Stars hosts Tom Bergeron and former Bachelor and DWTS contestant Melissa Rycroft announced the DWTS season 10 cast tonight just after Jake asked Vienna to be Mrs. Pavelka!

So here's the low down ... JAKE will join the show, along with Pamela Anderson, Kate Gosselin, Shannen Doherty, the Pussycat Dolls' Nicole Scherzinger, astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Olympic gold medalist Evan Lysacek, soap star Aiden Turner, NFL player Chad Ochocinco, ESPN's Erin Andrews, and actress-comedian Niecy Nash.

Whew! That's quite a group - the requisite number of d-listers peppered with a few surprisingly interesting b-listers. Hey, that's what makes the show a hit!
