Chris Harrison: Courtney Robertson, Apologize To Bachelor Ben Flajnik

Chris Harrison doesn’t believe that Courtney has made up for all her ‘Bachelor’ sins just yet.

Courtney Robertson still has a lot of explaining to do to make up for her evil actions on The Bachelor where she bashed the other women competing for Ben Flajnik‘s heart. During the Feb. 20 episode, Courtney claimed that she felt horrible about her bad behavior, but she didn’t apologize to Ben or the other women. Host Chris Harrison thinks that Courtney still needs to come clean and prove that she is a decent person.

“I don’t think Courtney redeemed herself on the hometown date,” Chris told TV Guide. “In a lot of people’s eyes she has more to do.”

Chris does recognize that Courtney took the first step towards her path to redemption by realizing that she had made some major mistakes. “At least we got to see a very different human side of her,” Chris explains. “She was more contrite and she regretted the fact that she treated the women like that. Once you get away from the situation, you realize how it got the best of you and it did for her.”

Now it’s just a matter of if Courtney will step up and do what it takes to settle the conflicts she created with the other women and Ben. “Will she go further than that as far as apologizing and owning up to it?” Chris wonders. “We’ll see at the Women Tell All.”

BFFs — do you think Courtney will ever apologize to Ben and/or the women?

The ONLY reason Courtney said that she regretted treating the other girls like crap was because it was what Ben wanted to hear. She wants to “win” and the only way to “win” is by playing Ben like a fiddle and she’s doing it quite well.

I can’t wait to watch “The Women Tell All” I hope when Chris calls on them they aren’t all weepy that he rejected them. It would be hilarious if they all said “After I saw Ben on tv, he did me a huge favor by not giving me a rose. Who cares? Why are we here anyway?” Then ALL of them get up, walk out and go to a club and have fun leaving Ben sitting in the studio by himself with no one wanting an explanation or hearing anything he has to say. NOW THAT would be a GREAT SHOW!

None of it is important…the cat was out of the bag a long time ago as to who one….they had to do something to make people watch. I bet I don’t again.

Who cares!

I grew up feeling like no one would love me because I wasn’t beautiful. I owe this fear partially to movies and shows like the Bachelor. The movies always portrayed the less attractive girls as the slapstick comedian who was cast for the laughs. She was the funny sidekick to the beautiful heroine who finds love in the end, while her very plain Jane friend is overlooked. I could never imagine the plain Jane making love. After all, she didn’t have a perfect body. There are only a handful of films like The Truth about Cats and Dogs where this isn’t true, although even Jeanine Garaffalo’s (sp?) character in that movie was pretty. But just recently I read a very funny and heartwarming novel that helped me to see that true love can come to the plain Janes (and Joe)s of the world. It is called What the Heart Sees. The author’s name is Janice Zick. I found it at the Desert Breeze Publishing.com site. Oops, no spaces. What a breath of fresh air it was. I love, love, loved it. I laughed and cried throughout the book.

Can’t convince me that the producers didn’t add that “oh, I have been so mean to everyone else” until more recently. She doesn’t say it on film, it is said while showing clips of the show. She probably called that sound bite in.

Yeah and she went back to the farm and recreated the exact time of day and outfit too!

Go back and watch the clip. It’s from the day if her hometown.

Courtney and Ben connected on day one and all the other girls were jealous. They tried to sabotage B and C’s relationship from day one by gossiping about her to Ben. As far as I’m concerned THEY owe Courtney and Ben an apology.

Actually, you go back and watch it. The part where she says she felt bad was a voice over. I think they are adding things in now because he picks her and they don’t want America to still be hating her. Plus, in the interviews where they show her, she’s wearing the same top but none of the jewelry she was wearing that day. Also in the episode, the whole time they were eating with her family, they already had the rings one, then it shows them leaving her parents place and then doing the fake wedding where she plagiarized lines from Sex & the City. Courtney fail and editing fail.
