If you love parades, this is a great one to watch. This year’s hosts are Drew and Jonathan Scott, stars of the popular HGTV show Property Brothers, and Entertainment Tonight host Nancy O’Dell. The theme of the 2015 Rose Bowl Parade is “Inspiring Stories,” and that may ring true for the new Bachelor, Chris Soules — or at least fans hope it turns out to be an inspiring love story.
US Weekly reports that ABC will be showing off their own elaborately decorated parade float to promote the reality show’s 19th season that starts Janaury 5. Complete with a mini Bachelor mansion, the float will feature not only Soules but several other Bachelor-nation alum as well, including Jason and Molly Mesnick; Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried; and Bachelor in Paradise stars Sarah Herron and Marquel Martin.

Christian Today reports that the Grand Marshal for the 2015 Tournament of Roses Parade is Louis Zamperini, Olympian and World War II prisoner, despite the fact that he passed away in July. The parade is dedicated to Zamperini, who wrote his life story in the book Devil at My Heels. His book inspired another best-selling book, Unbroken, one that Angelina Jolie’s new movie, Unbroken is based on. Zamperini’s life story certainly brings true meaning to the Parade of Roses “Inspiring Stories” theme.
