"BACHELOR PAD 2" WINNER MICHAEL STAGLIANO RETURNS TO FIND TRUE LOVE ON SEASON 3 OF ABC'S HOT SUMMER SERIES, "BACHELOR PAD," PREMIERING MONDAY, JULY 23

For the First Time, "Super Fans" Will Join Previous Bachelors and Bachelorettes Under One Roof, Competing For a Second Chance at Love or Money

Recently Booted " The Bachelorette" Villain Kalon McMahon Will Also Join "Bachelor Pad" This Season

Hosted by Chris Harrison ("The Bachelor," "The Bachelorette"), "Bachelor Pad" returns MONDAY, July 23 (8:00-10:00 p.m., ET) with its most controversial cast to date, as 15 unforgettable characters from the "Bachelor" franchise - those we love and those we love to hate -- gather back at the mansion to live together to possibly find a second chance at love and compete for $250,000. Last season, Michael Stagliano won the money but lost at love - this season he moves into the mansion and will put everything on the line, even his winnings from last season, to find love. Also, fresh off the wrath of Emily on this week's episode of "The Bachelorette," Villain Kalon McMahon decides to lick his wounds and move into "Bachelor Pad." Other residents will include "Bachelorette 5" fan favorites Ed Swiderski, winner, and contestant Reid Rosenthal, who proposed to Jillian Harris.

Additionally, for the first time, the show will feature five "Super Fans" - including identical twins Brittany and Erica Taltos who will compete as one participant. With so many elements at play to raise the stakes - Kalon is unaware that one of his roommates will be returning " Bachelor Pad" member Erika Rose, with whom he has a love/hate relationship; Tony Pieper, who was deeply torn over his search for love on "The Bachelorette," decides that there is really more out there for him and is ready to take another chance on love; Will Blakely be able to get along with the women in the mansion and will these fresh new faces be able to find true romance in the mix? And so much more - Season 3 is set to bring fireworks, drama, romance and endless possibilities.

Each week the contestants will square off in head-to-head challenges to compete for immunity and the opportunity to go on a date with contestants of their choice. The winner of each challenge will then grant immunity to one of his or her dates via the presentation of a rose. At the end of each episode, the contestants will vote amongst themselves - the men will vote off a woman and vice versa -- to determine which cast members will be eliminated from the competition.

The 20 contestants set to lay it all on the line for love and/or money are:

The Women

LINDZI COX ("The Bachelor" Season 16, Ben Flajnik) Lindzi has not been heard from since she was rejected by Ben Flajnik on that fateful day. She was heartbroken and buried herself in work and her passion, horses. But, Lindzi is determined to move on. She does not care for anyone that gossips and is ready to compete for money and love. Occupation: Development Manager Age: 27 Residence: Bellevue, WA

BLAKELY JONES ("The Bachelor" Season 16, Ben Flajnik) Last time, Blakely did not get along with the women in the house. She admits that she probably could have done a better job of making friends, but now she is not here to make friends. Blakely is here to win all the money. Occupation: Estherician Age: 34 Residence: Charlotte, NC

SARAH NEWLON ("The Bachelor" Season 11, Brad Womack) This girl does not want her 15 minutes of fame to end. She is single and ready to mingle, and eager to get in the mansion to hang out with the hot single men. A friend of Erica Rose, she knows she needs to do anything to stay in "Bachelor Pad." Sharing the mansion with Reid should also be interesting since Sarah shared an intimate kiss with Reid while he had a girlfriend. Occupation: Bar Manager Age: 28 Residence: St. Louis, MO

JAMIE OTIS ("The Bachelor" Season 16, Ben Flajnik) The last time we saw Jamie, she had an awkward kiss with Ben before being sent home. Jamie has made a lot of changes since she has been on the show. She was the mother figure to her siblings and when she got home, she realized that her siblings were growing up and can live without her. For once, she is living her life as her own. Jamie also thinks Jaclyn is toxic. Occupation: Registered Nurse Age: 25 Residence: New York, NY

ERICA ROSE ("The Bachelor" Season 9, Prince Lorenzo Borghese) Erica was a presence on "Bachelor Pad 2," speaking the truth and stirring the pot. But after being voted off and sent back home to her parents, she is ready to return and win the money all for herself. She also has a love/hate relationship with Kalon, who is from her hometown. Occupation: Law Student Age: 29 Residence: Houston, TX

JACLYN SWARTZ ("The Bachelor" Season 16, Ben Flajnik) Jaclyn is super competitive, smart, manipulative but well liked amongst the cast, despite being a self-proclaimed mean girl. This smart-mouthed woman will tell it like it is, but still stay on everyone's good side to ensure that she is kept in the house. However, Jaclyn thinks Rachel Trueheart wants to be just like her. Occupation: Account Manager Age: 27 Residence: Newton, MA

RACHEL TRUEHEART ("The Bachelor" Season 16, Ben Flajnik) Rachel narrowly escaped going home on the 2-on-1 with Blakeley, but still remained closed off, which ultimately led to her demise. Now she is back, and finally open to love - and even more open to taking home a lot of money. However, this could all be challenging since Jaclyn gets really annoyed with Rachel. Occupation: Executive Assistant Age: 27 Residence: New York, NY

BRITTANY AND ERICA TALTOS (Super Fans) These two are the definition of double the trouble and double the fun. They are in it for the money and maybe to find a guy, but nothing serious. Erica has the reputation for being the smarter, more conservative twin. She is still a virgin and has not dated much. Brittany, however, could not be more opposite of Erica, she is the flirtatious, boy-crazy twin. As fans, the twins think Erica is snobby, boring and not pretty. Occupation: Students Age: 22 Residence: Gainesville, FL

PAIGE VIGIL (Super Fan) As a dedicated fan of " The Bachelor," Paige has preconceived notions of all previous cast members from writing " The Bachelor" recaps in her college newspaper and admits she will be a bit star-struck. She may look sweet and innocent, but do not underestimate her because Paige will use her knowledge of the cast to her advantage. Though she will put up a good fight for the money, she ultimately hopes to find the love of her life and settle down. Occupation: Jumbo Tron Operator Age: 24 Residence: New York, NY

DONNA ZITELLI (Super Fan) This sight for sore eyes is a trifecta of beauty, personality and brains. Donna graduated third in her class, and loves drawing and writing songs. She knows people underestimate her intelligence because of her beauty - little do they know she has no problem playing it up and using her beauty and brains to win the money. Donna would love to go on a date with Michael Stagliano. Occupation: Student Age: 22 Residence: Hackensack, NJ

The Men

RYAN HOAG ("The Bachelorette" Season 4, DeAnna Pappas) Ryan is a person who stands strong in his beliefs and is one to let it be known. He did not find love on DeAnna's season, and is not going on "Bachelor Pad" to find it either - he is here for the money. But, he is by far one of the more handsome men in the mansion and will be an object of desire - could a possible love interest distract him from winning the cash or will he stay focused on the prize? Occupation: High School Dean/ Age: 32 Residence: Minneapolis, MN Former NFL Player

KALON MCMAHON ("The Bachelorette" Season 8, Emily Maynard) Kalon was the villain on Emily's season. But at least he was honest. Maybe Kalon is not ready to settle down, but he is ready to dominate those inferior to him. He will charm the women, he will compliment the men and he will go all the way to the end just to keep the money all to himself. Plus, he is frenemies with Erica Rose. Occupation: Luxury Brand Consultant Age: 27 Residence: Houston, TX

NICK PETERSON ("The Bachelorette" Season 7, Ashley Herbert) Nick never really made much of an impression on Ashley. He was too reserved and too concerned that he would make a fool of himself. As a result, he never got the chance for love. He finally found his footing at "The Men Tell All" and now he is ready to show America and all of "Bachelor Nation" who he is. And, he is going to use his body to make sure no one votes him off. Occupation: Trainer Age: 27 Residence: Tampa, FL

TONY PIEPER ("The Bachelorette" Season 8, Emily Maynard) Tony temporarily left his son to be with the one girl he truly believed was meant for him, Emily. After having his heart broken on "The Bachelorette," he realized that there is more out there for him and is ready to find his true love. Occupation: Lumber Trader Age: 30 Residence: Portland, OR

REID ROSENTHAL ("The Bachelorette" Season 5, Jillian Harris) Reid is most remembered as coming back to propose to Jillian after she had already rejected him - only to be rejected all over again. He later found love with his long-term girlfriend of several years, with whom he just recently ended things. Plus, when he was still with his girlfriend, he hooked up with Sarah Newton, who is now living with him in "Bachelor Pad." At this point, Reid is unsure what he wants out of life when it comes to career, love, and money and hopes to figure this out in "Bachelor Pad." Occupation: Realtor Age: 33 Residence: Philadelphia, PA

MICHAEL STAGLIANO ("The Bachelorette" Season 5, Jillian Harris, "Bachelor Pad 2") Last time Michael came on "Bachelor Pad," he got the money. But sadly for him, money cannot buy happiness. Soon after taking the win, he found out that his ex-fiancé, Holly, was engaged to Blake. This time, he is not going to even think about the game or the money. He is just here to meet the girl of his dreams. Occupation: Entrepreneur Age: 27 Residence: Sherman Oaks, CA

ED SWIDERSKI ("The Bachelorette" Season 5, Jillian Harris) Ed won Jillian's love and got down on bended knee, but it did not last. They gave it their all, they have no regrets, but now he is single again. He found love on "The Bachelorette," so why could he not find it on "Bachelor Pad?" Occupation: Technology Consultant Age: 33 Residence: Chicago, IL

CHRIS BAIN (Super Fan) Chris is an animated, good ole' country boy from Georgia. He thoroughly enjoys rush-kicking in doors, taking down criminals and flashing his tats. He is very similar to a 90's action movie hero in that he wants what every hero wants - the money and pretty girl on his arm. Chris hopes to leave "Bachelor Pad" with both. Occupation: SWAT Team Officer Age: 28 Residence: Canton, GA

DAVID MALLET(Super Fan) David is a fan of the show, but an even bigger fan of women and money. As an MMA fighter, David feels right at home being competitive and has earned the name "Kamikaze" because when he fights he either wins or dies trying. "Bachelor Pad" is the perfect arena where he will be able to dominate in both fields. He would like to hook up with Lindzi. Occupation: Real Estate Agent/ Age: 28 Residence: Hoboken, NJ MMA Fighter
