'Bachelor' Contestant Courtney Stirs Up Trouble
New report reveals the secret strategies of a reality starlet on a mission

If you thought those fake nuptials were shocking, you ain't heard nothing yet.
This week, an Us Weekly spills the secret strategies of woman-on-a-mission Courtney Robertson, who has been stealing the show every week on "The Bachelor."

Amongs the surprising scoop? Robertson, who previously dated celebs like Adrian Grenier ("Entourage") and Jesse Metcalfe ("Desperate Housewives"), had to force herself to fall for "Bachelor" Ben Flajnik. The 28-year-old model, who attempted to score her prize with a mock-wedding ceremony last week, apparently "doesn't go for guys like Ben," the magazine reports.
She also thinks her competition doesn't have much going for it. In fact, she's given the other girls some stunning nicknames: Lindzi Cox is "Horsey," while Nicki Sterling is "Fatty."
"Courtney told her family she has [the competition] all wrapped up," a source told Us Magazine.
And "Bachelor" host Chris Harrison says that the drama-inducing diva (who requires a four-hour nap before each date, apparently) just might be right. "Love is the name of the game," says Harrison. "And this just the way Courtney plays."
"The Bachelor" airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

This show is entirely fake folks! The 'vows' Courtney said were from Carrie's vows to 'Mr Big' on 'Sex and the City'- almost verbatim - not original! I believe they are acting according to their contract with the producers on these shows. Of course, Ben picked the one the viewers like the least. She's acting, Ben's acting - they are all acting. Get engaged per contract and then dump each other after a certain amount of time. Why else would Ben be so 'kissy-face' with everyone - Give me a Break! This show needs to be outed for its fakeness.

Ok so after reading the comments i have come to realized two things:
1.)That Courtney deserves exactly what she is getting all the attention on her and the realization that no one really likes her AT ALL.
2.)When she finally realizes that no one likes her she will eventually turn into every star in Hollywood. Find herself a new girlfriend or shave her hair and have 50 kids and get married 60 times.
All she needs to hear from me is welcome to the hated side of the world Satan will be with you momentarily.
She deserves what she will get from Ben aka the money.Sad to say it but its true America is going so low that Courtney has her head so deep in the Gold mine she will do anything to step on people to get her way.

TV shows like to create drama even on a reality show. Remember Amorosa (sp?) on The Apprentice? Of course, Vienna on the Bachelor with Jake, Wes on the Bachelorette with Jillian, now Courtney with Ben. The ratings are good on these shows so it is the scripted drama, of course not really reality. It is just fun TV, people shouldn't take these shows too seriously. The travel on the Bachelor also makes it worth watching.

I've only seen ONE person who likes Courtney and I don't know how that could be possible. Not even talking about her ugly looks, that squirrely pinch mouth and playing with her hair all the time, she is a sleaze and everyone knows it. After they went skinny dipping then she was naked under the dance outfit, Ben said that he wished the other girls would have gone naked and I lost respect for him then. Bottom line, he barely has a cute face and his hair is THE WORST! Just wash it! And instead of trying to tuck it behind your ears, use a scrunchy! haha He and Courtney deserve each other! I was so glad when Kacie B went home. She's sweetie and deserves a man a MILLION times better!

courtney has only been interested in one thing all along, fame and be on tv. she thinks she's hot , but she's making a fool out of the whole bachlor series. and we all can gripe and complain but this is the stupid stuff that sells. all of the girls who come on the show and do it for the right reasons, are just nieve to think it's for real.

Hey, you know this show is scripted, don't you? For instance......when Ben comes back to his room after a date or something, Courtney is waiting outside his door with wine and glasses, and the camera just happens to be there? DUH. And the skinny dipping???? HA! So planned, so phony. The show needs better writers if they expect to be convincing that it's all "real." I could do better writing than the current writers. LOL- or even better LMFAO.

I read spoilers online that he does in fact choose her, so I wonder, her coming out with this article and all, does that mean they are already broken up? Ben is not the cutest of guys and does seem to be a little slow sometimes when trying to have conversations with the girls. I'm looking forward to the next Bachelorette! They have started filming already (or so i've heard) nearby here in Charlotte, NC. I've watched this series from the beginning, and was fully engaged with the first few participants, however lost interest a few years back. Picked up again when Jillian was on in 2009 but I still have to say Ben has just not impressed me. Think I'll give another season of the bachelor a chance but people, at least bring us a HOT SINCERE GUY!

Naive, wannabe playboy meets amoral narcissist. The minute he went skinnydipping with her he was in over his head and deserved to be played. He lied (by omission) to all the other women and lost all credibility for repeatedly asking for their honesty. He really believed he was that cool and she got the exposure she wanted. I doubt this was even a challenge for her. The best part of the season for me was watching him send Kacie B home - she deserves so much better.

I think courtney is an ABSOLUTE SLEEEEZZZZ BAG!!!!!!!Ok so first off who on gods green earth would be intimidated by her??The "twits" and "cowards" that Ben is falling for actually care about him.Not the he-man that is messing with his head and lying to him for reasons only for herself. When someone wastes that much time on her looks and doesnt wake up and smell the roses that no one cares what her excuses are for making herself be attracted to Ben are. If Ben picks her(heaven forbid)he should go out in america and find a beautiful women or just a women in general and she will be his, "sight for sore eyes".If i were Courtneys parents she would no longer be my daughter she we just be some loser that decided to make an absoluete idiot of herself in front of the whole country.Also the whole world knows why she doesnt have any friends and why no one likes her and if you havnet caught on yet i am saying she is a big Bully! I dont think that the world has seen a bigger immature man women with a duck face that NO ONE LIKES!!!~God Bless~
