Fans of ABC’s “The Bachelor” are getting ready for the show’s Season 16 premiere—and so are former stars of the show.

“Bachelor” and “Bachelor Pad” all-stars Jesse Csincsak, Jesse Kovacs and David Good are hosting a premiere-night “Singles Party” at The Parlor Hollywood on January 2, the night of Ben Flajnik’s “Bachelor” Season 16 debut.

The festivities will include a red carpet welcome, a gifting suite and a chance to win a date with “Bachelorette” alums Kasey Kahl and Ryan Park. The celebrity date  auction also includes a date with “Most Eligible Dallas” Matt Nordgen and Atlanta Falcons player, Will Svitek.

Jesse Csincsak has long been involved in “Bachelor”- alum events and in fact met his wife, Ann, at a “Bachelor” reunion event.

When asked about the  recent news of the breakup of ‘Bachelorette” Ali Fedotowsky and her final pick, Roberto Martinez, Csinscak says he wasn’t surprised by their split, due to the stress that show’s creator puts on the winners to get married.

As for Ben Flajnik, Csincsak said, “If he can keep up the same realness he showed with Ashley when getting eliminated I think this will make for an interesting season… I hope he did find love on his season.”

In the Philadelphia area, “The Bachelor” Season 16 premiere will air on January 2 on WPVI Channel 6.
