From The Bachelorette to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition!
The lovely Jillian Harris recently traveled to Slaughterville, Okla., where she pitched in to rebuild the home of Brian and Audra Skaggs, whose two-year-old son, Jhett, has a weakened immune system after receiving a heart transplant.
“The Skaggs reminded me of ‘my kind of people,” says Jillian, who is still engaged to Bachelorette winner Ed Swiderski. “They love country music, campfires, family.”
Something about that hard hat definitely suits Jill, too …
Jillian Harris is never afraid to get her hands dirty.
Her expertise as an interior designer certainly came in handy, but Jillian says she also benefited personally from the experience on the feel-good reality show.
“After catapulting into the public eye, getting my heart broken, traveling the world, then falling in love, getting engaged, all while traveling the world again, and then dealing with a public media storm, I was frazzled,” Jillian says.
“I missed the ‘regular,’ spunky energetic Jilly, and worried if she would ever come back. As cliché as it sounds, this experience brought me back to me.”
It was also one that made her cry: “The entire process brought me to tears,” says the Canadian cutie. “happy tears, grateful tears and tears of hope.”
Somehow we can’t see Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi reacting similarly to such a situation, but that’s just us. What an adorable sweetheart Jillian is.

Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi have been engaged 10 days. Or one for each beautiful baby The Bachelor couple apparently wants to make some day.
“The other day it was 10!” Vienna exclaimed when her fiance told E! News, in response to a question about starting a family, that “We want five kids.”
Five. Ten. Either way, too many little Viennas for the world. Fortunately, she may agree. “No, no, no, like 2-3,” Girardi said, “but not for a few years.”
Pavelka and Girardi may be have babies on the brain following the romantic season finale of The Bachelor, but walking down the aisle? Not so much.
“We’re going to wait awhile before we start talking about wedding dates,” Vienna Girardi said. “We want to have some normality in our relationship.”

Fortunately for Jake, normalcy means taking part in reality show. The pilot is competing in his third of the last year, signing on for Season 10 of Dancing With the Stars.
Also par for the course for Jake? Controversy. The inevitable rumors that Jake’s been cheating with Chelsie Hightower, his cute Dancing partner, have already surfaced.
Vienna insists she’s not bothered by that noise.
“I actually love Chelsie,” she said. “She and I are very, very good friends. I was in the studio today, watching them dance… I’ll be sitting in the front row every week.”
Will Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi last?

Four pill bottles found in the apartment where Corey Haim died yesterday morning, medications that included the generic versions of both Vicodin and Valium.
The same doctor prescribed all four drugs just days before Haim died.
The drugs provided by a prominent L.A. psychiatrist were hydrocodone (Vicodin), diazepam (Valium), haloperidol (anti-psychotic) and Soma (muscle relaxant).
The L.A. County Coroner’s Office would not comment, but sources say that all were prescribed the same day, days before Haim died of an apparent drug overdose.
No word on how many (if any) pills were missing from the bottles, which has become a topic of debate in the eerily similar Brittany Murphy death investigation.
Corey Haim (1971-2010).
Law enforcement sources say they believe Haim died from an accidental overdose of meds, though nothing is final until the Coroner’s toxicology reports are in.
There have been reports that Haim, who fought a long battle with substance abuse, admitted in the past to taking as many as 85 Valium pills in a single day.
Haim, a 38-year-old former child star, collapsed in his mother’s apartment and was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead 2 1/2 hours later.
The actor had been dating Daisy de la Hoya, a fellow reality star, in the week’s leading up to his passing. She is understandably quite broken up about it.
