"The Bachelor&amp;#039;s new season has begun filming in earnest after the first rose ceremony was taped last night. The show&amp;#039;s executive producers Mike Fleiss and Robert Mills tweeted from the event, where the as-yet-unnamed Bachelor met the females hoping to win his heart. Fleiss began by saying: &amp;quot;About to head to tonite&amp;#039;s rose ceremony... [host] @chrisbharrison and I are planning a few surprises!!!&amp;quot; Meanwhile, Mills said the first proper night of the show &amp;quot;never gets old&amp;quot; and added: &amp;quot;Our #Bachelor has been nervously cracking his knuckles. I hope his wedding ring will fit by the end of all this!&amp;quot; Fleiss marked the moment that the first limo pulled up to the Bachelor mansion and praised Harrison, claiming that he was &amp;quot;on fire&amp;quot;. He also teased that one of the hopefuls is a &amp;quot;big fan&amp;quot; of erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey, while Mills hinted: &amp;quot;There are sharks in the #Bachelor mansion.&amp;quot;   The identity of next season&amp;#039;s Bachelor has not yet been revealed, though Olympian swimmer Ryan Lochte and Sean Lowe - from Emily Maynard&amp;#039;s recent season of The Bachelorette - are thought to be among the frontrunners. Lowe&amp;#039;s fellow contestant Arie Luyendyk, Jr was also originally thought to be a likely candidate, though he has ruled out the role on two occasions and was last night tweeting from the Dancing With The Stars premiere, saying: &amp;quot;Amazing time at #DWTS with [Maynard&amp;#039;s fianc\u00E9] @jefholm!&amp;quot; He added: &amp;quot;Soooo what you didn&amp;#039;t see tonight on #DWTS is that @justinbieber BROUGHT the house down. @jefholm was freaking out! Haha.&amp;quot; The Bachelor is due to return early next year on ABC. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
