Yes, you read that right. Ben is being wooed by twins, a cowgirl … and a chicken enthusiast. We’ve got so many questions about Tiara that we don’t even know where to begin. Does she work at Perdue or KFC? Does she have a pet chicken? Hopefully we’ll get some answers when the new season premieres.

Besides revealing the contestants and their occupations, the list also confirms that former “Bachelor” alums Becca and Amber are returning. Both women previously appeared on Chris Soules’ season in 2015. While Amber didn’t have much luck in courting Chris (she was eliminated during episode 3), Becca made it all the way to the final two. Chris ultimately ended up proposing to Whitney Bischoff, but it looks like Becca’s willing to take a shot at love again on the reality series.

“The Bachelor” Season 20 with Ben Higgins premieres on ABC on Jan. 4 at 8 p.m. EST.
