He loves you, he loves you not

Prior Lake's Becca Kufrin may be front and center for the MOST DRAMATIC ENDING EVER to "The Bachelor." Us Weekly is reporting that in the two-part finale, race-car driver Arie Luyendyk Jr. picked between Kufrin and Lauren Burnham — and then chased after the runner-up weeks later. Highlights from the change of heart will be followed on Tuesday night by host Chris Harrison's debriefing.

The gold-medal-winning U.S. women's hockey team, which includes several Minnesota-raised players, will appear on "The Tonight Show," just weeks after the show wrapped up a live edition from Minneapolis.
