				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Ben&#8217;s eliminated &#8216;Bachelor&#8217; contestants all agree: Courtney is heartless and her lies prove she wasn&#8217;t looking for love on the show.</h3>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Courtney-Robertson/">Courtney Robertson</a></strong> is about to get slammed for her lies. During <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a>: The Women Tell All</em> special on March 5, all of <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong>&#8216;s <em>Bachelor</em> exes will have their chance to finally confront Courtney about all of her nasty tricks and manipulative ways &#8212; and some of what they have to say is just unbelievable.<span id="more-669738"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;When it comes to me and Courtney, she says things about me like, &#8216;Oh I didn&#8217;t know strippers could play baseball,&#8217;&#8221; <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong> says in a <a href="http://abc.go.com/shows/the-bachelor/video-detail/featured/the-women-on-courtney-sneak-peek/pl_PL5520911/vd_VD55177745" rel="nofollow">preview video</a>. &#8220;Well Courtney, I didn&#8217;t know that models were strippers as well because you took your clothes off in front of America. Not me.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Nicki Sterling</strong> doesn&#8217;t think Courtney&#8217;s apology to Ben was sincere. &#8220;All of a sudden she had a change of heart when she realized, &#8216;Oh it&#8217;s down to the final few and my chances of winning might be hindered by the fact of how horribly I&#8217;ve treated people,&#8217; and then all of a sudden she flips it and feels bad &#8212; I don&#8217;t buy that for a second,&#8221; Nicki notes.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think the apology was another step in her strategy to win,&#8221; <strong>Emily O&#8217;Brien</strong> adds. &#8220;Does Courtney know love? Does she have a heart? I don&#8217;t think so. I think it could have been Joe Shmoe sitting in the seat and Courtney would have done her damnest to make sure she got the finale rose.&#8221;</p>
<p>All of the women agree that &#8220;No,&#8221; Courtney didn&#8217;t go on the show to find love.</p>
<p>Be sure to catch <em>The Women Tell All</em> on ABC, March 5 &#8212; and check back here at <strong>HollywoodLife.com</strong> for our recap. Watch the preview clip below.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Blakeley tells HollywoodLife.com that she can&#8217;t believe that Courtney would get so sexy on national TV.</h3>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Courtney-Robertson/">Courtney Robertson</a></strong> loves to take her clothes off so that she can catch <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong>&#8216;s attention on <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a></em>. Her tricks are working as he seems entranced by the cunning model. But eliminated contestant <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong> tells <strong>HollywoodLife.com</strong> that Courtney&#8217;s sexy tricks won&#8217;t win Ben&#8217;s heart in the long run.<span id="more-649861"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t necessarily think sex appeal and aggression in the sense of what most people think is going to win his heart,&#8221; Blakeley told us during a Feb. 9 conference call. &#8220;My opinion just from watching and seeing her &#8230; I just don&#8217;t see feelings there. Not like that. I can tell that Ben is attracted to her. I can tell she is attracted to Ben, but there&#8217;s much more to a relationship than just attraction.&#8221;</p>
<p>Blakeley is disgusted by Courtney&#8217;s skinny dipping stunt. &#8220;Personally, I just wouldn&#8217;t go skinny dipping in front of America,&#8221; Blakeley said to us. &#8220;If I was with my boyfriend and I was in Puerto Rico and we were on trip just the two of us, that&#8217;s a different story. But doing it in front of the cameras, that&#8217;s something I definitely wouldn&#8217;t do.&#8221;</p>
<p>Blakeley questions why Courtney actually went on the show in the first place. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what her motives are,&#8221; she noted.</p>

<h3>She may have gotten the axe on &#8216;Bachelor,&#8217; but it looks like bad girl Blakeley Shea still knows how to partaay! Check out her hair-swishing, boob-smooshing dance as she straddles one of her girlfriends!</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/blakeley-shea/">Blakeley Shea</a>, 34, was devastated on the Feb. 6 episode of the <em>Bachelor</em> when <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/ben-flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a>, 28, gave her the boot in Panama City, Panama. But from the looks of this video &#8212; obtained by <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2012/02/09/bachelor-blakeley-shea-lap-dance/#.TzQCNOPC5vl" rel="nofollow"><em>TMZ</em></a> &#8212; the girl just wants to have fun! <span id="more-649511"></span></p>
<p>In a Feb. 9 conference call, <strong>HollywoodLife.com</strong> asked Blakeley what she thought of the scandalous video, which shows the cocktail waitress pulling her shirt over and smooshing her ginormous endowments in her female friend&#8217;s face.</p>
<p>&#8220;I have not seen this video,&#8221; she stated.</p>
<p>Well, she will now&#8230;</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Plus, cunning Courtney Robertson takes her top off again for Ben during the group date. Poor Ben is heading for heartbreak with these women.</h3>
<p>Will <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong> ever find love on <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a></em>? During the Feb. 6 episode, <strong>Casey S.</strong> is forced to tell Ben that she&#8217;s in love with another man. And <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Courtney-Roberson/">Courtney Robertson</a></strong> pulls another manipulative and provocative stunt when she takes her top off during the group date.<span id="more-646871"></span></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Kacie-Boguskie/">Kacie Boguskie</a></strong> gets the first one-on-one date with Ben. They take a helicopter to a private island. During the dinner part of the date, Kacie admits that she was bulimic and anorexic in high school. Because she opens up, Ben gives her the rose.</p>
<p><strong>Emily O&#8217;Brien</strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Nicki-Sterling/">Nicki Sterling</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Lindzi-Cox/">Lindzi Cox</a></strong>, Casey S., <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Jamie-Otis/">Jaime Otis</a></strong>, and Courtney go on the group date. Ben takes them on a boat ride down a river to a village where the women dress up in the traditional clothing of the local tribe. While the other women refuse to take their tops off to sport the traditional bead and colorful crop tops, Courtney is the only one to strip down. &#8220;I&#8217;m bare chesting it,&#8221; she brags. &#8220;Why night? I don&#8217;t do anything half ass.&#8221; Ben, who is in a loin cloth, notices that Courtney is the only one to participate. Ben and Courtney end up dancing together. They basically have no clothes on.</p>
<p>During the night portion of the date, Courtney again temps Ben to spend alone time with her. &#8220;I just want to feel special,&#8221; she tells him. &#8220;I feel like I need to keep that spark alive. I&#8217;m in room 1611. We can just lay there &#8230; &#8220;</p>
<p>While Jamie is having a private conversation with Ben, Courtney strips to her bikini, gets in the pool and deliberately distracts Ben. &#8220;I see Courtney in her bathing suit,&#8221; Ben confesses. &#8220;It&#8217;s very difficult to focus. Obviously I want to look.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lindzi gets the rose &#8212; and Ben never visits Courtney&#8217;s room.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong> and and <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Rachel-Truehart/">Rachel Truehart</a></strong> get the two-on-one date. He takes them salsa dancing. Rachel gets the rose, and Blakeley goes home.</p>
<p>Host <strong>Chris Harrison</strong> next surprises the girls and asks to speak to Casey S. alone. &#8220;It was brought to my attention by three different people that you&#8217;re in love with someone else,&#8221; he confronts Casey. &#8220;Michael is your boyfriend back at home. That&#8217;s what I want to talk to you about. We spoke to Michael &#8212; he said you guys are still in a relationship. He said you were practically living together before you left.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Basically I was completely in love with him,&#8221; Casey admits. &#8220;He told me from day one he doesn&#8217;t know if he wants to get married. A year ago, I broke up with him and [got] back together with him. Maybe I should be in therapy. I think that my perfect scenario would be to fall in love with Ben.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t want to be in love [with Michael],&#8221; Casey continues. &#8220;I want to give up hope that he will change. It&#8217;s really come to my attention last night that I still have hope he&#8217;ll change.&#8221;</p>
<p>Chris pushes Casey to go talk to Ben. &#8220;I came into this wanting to get over a guy who I was in love with, I think that I&#8217;m not completely over him,&#8221; she cries to Ben.</p>
<p>&#8220;I wish you had been honest,&#8221; Ben replies. &#8220;If you felt this way, I wish you had told me sooner. I think that you should go home.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the rose ceremony, Ben does not give a rose to Jamie and sends her home as well.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Courtney pulls the most obnoxious and daring trick yet. She convinces Ben to get naked and canoodle with her in the ocean.</h3>
<p>Cunning<strong> <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Courtney-Robertson/">Courtney Robertson</a></strong> has no reservations when it comes to convincing <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong> to fall for her. During the Jan. 30 episode of <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a></em>, Courtney gets mad when she doesn&#8217;t get the group date rose. So, she decides to win her own way and surprises Ben with a skinny dipping adventure in Puerto Rico.<span id="more-640922"></span></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Nicki-Sterling/">Nicki Sterling</a></strong> gets the first one-on-one date. They get caught in the rain so they duck into a shop. After it stops raining, they go for a walk to sightsee. They pause for a while to watch a wedding. During the night portion of the date, Nicki opens up about her divorce. Nicki admits that she &#8220;lost trust&#8221; in her husband. Nicki gets the rose.</p>
<p>The group date goes to <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Lindzi-Cox/">Lindzi Cox</a></strong>, Courtney, Jennifer, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Kacie-Boguskie/">Kacie Boguskie</a></strong>, <strong>Emily O&#8217;Brien</strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Rachel-Truehart/">Rachel Truehart</a></strong>, Casey S., <strong>Jamie Otis</strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong>. The girls have to play a baseball game to see who will get to attend the beach party later on in the evening. The girls are split into two teams, but Lindzi gets to play for both teams. Courtney&#8217;s team wins, and the losers have to return to the hotel.</p>
<p>Kacie B. gets the rose during the night portion of the date. &#8220;I like watching you, I like being with you,&#8221; Ben tells her. &#8220;What I think I like most is your ability to get me to open up. You listen.&#8221;</p>
<p>This doesn&#8217;t sit well with Courtney, so she steals him away. &#8220;All I could think about is you,&#8221; she tells Ben. &#8220;Ideally it would be you and me and a bottle of wine and skinny dipping, getting crazy. Maybe we can orchestrate something.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Elyse-Myers/">Elyse Myers</a></strong> gets the second one-on-one date. Ben and Elyse go on a private yacht for the day. But the night portion doesn&#8217;t go so well for Elyse. &#8220;I think my relationships with these other women are so far past than what we could get to,&#8221; Ben tells her. &#8220;I can&#8217;t give you this rose.&#8221; He sends her home.</p>
<p>Courtney surprises Ben in a robe upon his return from his date with Elyse. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if he&#8217;s ever skinny dipped with a model before,&#8221; she tells the cameras. &#8220;It could be fun.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We can do something else out there,&#8221; Courtney tells Ben. &#8220;We felt so frisky.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ben complies. &#8220;She has taken it upon herself to magically appear on my doorstep,&#8221; he says. &#8220;Why not? Are you going full nude when you go in?&#8221;</p>
<p>Both Ben and Courtney completely strip down and run into the water naked. &#8220;I feel like I&#8217;m winning,&#8221; Courtney brags.</p>
<p>Ben feels guilty going into the cocktail party. &#8220;Courtney and I shared a very intimate moment,&#8221; he explains. &#8220;I feel kind of crappy about what happened.&#8221;</p>
<p>Courtney starts to tell the girls about her secret with Ben. &#8220;I like to be in my birthday suit as much as possible,&#8221; she smiles.</p>
<p>Emily then decides to warn Ben about Courtney again. Ben doesn&#8217;t like this. She returns to the group in tears.</p>
<p>Luckily, Emily gets the last rose during the ceremony. Ben instead sends Jennifer home.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Ben is obsessed with Courtney, who seems to be the Vienna Girardi of this season.</h3>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong> was completely blown away by <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Courtney-Robertson/">Courtney Robertson</a></strong> during their one-one-one date on the Jan. 9 episode of <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a></em>. But while Ben couldn&#8217;t stop gushing about his future with Courtney, Courtney seemed more into winning the rose than falling in love with Ben. Now, Ben continues to rave about Courtney in his new, personal <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20559938,00.html" rel="nofollow">People.com blog</a>. Does he not see that this cunning woman is just like <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/vienna-girardi/">Vienna Girardi</a></strong> &#8212; who seemed more obsessed with fame than love?<span id="more-625137"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;I was excited for my date with Courtney because I really enjoyed talking with her the first night,&#8221; Ben writes. &#8220;I was happy to learn how normal it felt to hang out with her. I think that the way you see it on TV does it justice in that we were very comfortable with each other.&#8221;</p>
<p>Really Ben? It seemed like Courtney was more into fixing her hair so that she would look good in front of the cameras than getting to know you sincerely.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was surprised that we were so lovely-dovey so early on, as it was just the start of my journey and I knew there were lots of other relationships I still needed to explore,&#8221; Ben continues. &#8220;It really helped that Scotch was a fan of Courtney&#8217;s too.&#8221; Is Ben&#8217;s dog blind too?</p>
<p>Then, there was <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong>, who aggressively went after Ben trying to use her sex appeal to win him over and in turn caused a huge uproar with the other women during the group date. &#8220;Let&#8217;s put it this way, group dates suck,&#8221; Ben says. &#8220;Little did I know that Blakely was the cause of the drama that night.&#8221;</p>
<p>Despite the red flags going up about Blakeley, Ben still liked her. &#8220;The women might have been upset at Blakely&#8217;s motivation, but I found it okay in the moment,&#8221; Ben recalls. &#8220;She was determined to talk to me, finish her conversation and get to know one another better. Most people won&#8217;t agree with me there, but I liked her persistence.&#8221;</p>
<p>BFFs &#8212; do you think Courtney is actually falling for Ben too &#8212; or is it all an act?</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Courtney and Blakey Shea&#8217;s true colors come out on &#8216;The Bachelor.&#8217; Courtney seems more into getting the rose than Ben &#8212; and Blakeley uses her sex appeal to distract Ben from the other women.</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s time for <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong> to start guarding his heart during this season of <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a></em>. During the  Jan. 9 episode, Ben and the women travel to Sonoma, Calif. where Ben hopes to try and get the women to open up to him. Only, two women stand out as the ones that Ben needs to watch out for. <strong>Courtney Robertson</strong> seems more into winning than falling in love with Ben. And, the other women can&#8217;t stand that Ben is blinded for <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong>&#8216;s sex appeal.<span id="more-624909"></span></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Kacie-Boguskie/">Kacie Boguskie</a></strong> gets the first one-on-one date. They go to dinner and Ben opens up about his dad. Ben gives Kacie the first rose of the the episode &#8212; and they kiss. They next watch home movies of both Kacie and Ben as kids. Ben&#8217;s clips show him with his dad as a little boy. Ben and Kacie both tear up. &#8221;Sharing that moment with Kacie is something I&#8217;ll never forget,&#8221; Ben says. &#8220;I think that my dad would really like Kacie B.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ben next goes one a group date with 12 girls &#8212; <strong>Brittney</strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Rachel-Truehart/">Rachel Truehart</a></strong>, <strong>Jennifer</strong>, Blakeley, <strong>Emily</strong>, <strong>Jenna</strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Shawn-Reynolds/">Shawn Reynolds</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Monica-Spannbauer/">Monica Spannbauer</a></strong>, <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Samantha-Levey/">S<strong>amantha Levey</strong></a>, <strong><a href="Jamie Otis" rel="nofollow">Jamie Otis</a></strong>, <strong>Nicki Sterling</strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Jaclyn-Swartz/">Jaclyn Swartz</a>.</strong></p>
<p>For the group date, Ben introduces the girls to a group of &#8220;playwrights&#8221; who turn out to be kids. &#8220;We wrote a fairytale and you have to audition,&#8221; one kid shares.</p>
<p>The girls and Ben end up having to perform a play in a theater. Ben plays the role of &#8220;Prince Pinot of Bachelorville.&#8221; During the play, Ben strips down. Is it appropriate for Ben to perform a male strip show in front of a group of kids? Oh well. The play ends in success despite Ben&#8217;s shirtless stunt.</p>
<p>During the night portion of the group date, the drama heats up. Blakeley seems more interested in Ben this week than her girlfriend Monica &#8212; and obsessed with getting the rose. &#8220;Blakeley comes off as aggressive and bold,&#8221; Nicki comments. Blakeley is so crazed that she pulls Ben off for some alone time.</p>
<p>Blakeley and Ben play around in the pool. &#8220;Now it&#8217;s some grownup time with Ben,&#8221; she says before they make out in the water. &#8220;I love it.&#8221; Blakeley gets what she wants as Ben hands her the rose. The other women look hurt and jealous.</p>
<p>&#8220;Blakeley is a sl*t,&#8221; says Samantha. &#8220;Ugh. We hate you. She&#8217;s very horsey.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;All these b*tches, I just got the rose,&#8221; brags Blakeley. &#8220;The whole reason I was there was to get the rose, so that was that.&#8221;</p>
<p>Back at the house, a group of girls await for the last date card to arrive. <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Courtney-Robertson/">Courtney Robertson</a></strong> wins the date over <strong>Lindzi Cox</strong> and <strong>Erika Uhlig</strong> and rubs it in their faces. &#8220;How did that taste coming out of your mouth,&#8221; Courtney brags to Kacie, who read the card. &#8220;That kind of rubbed me the wrong way,&#8221; Kacie admits. &#8220;You&#8217;re not a good person.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I thought maybe she was a real person,&#8221; Erika agrees. &#8220;She&#8217;s purposely doing this to get under our skin.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ben and his dog <strong>Scotch</strong> finally go to pick Courtney up for their date. Despite her haughty attitude, Courtney seems happy to seem Ben at first. They drive out to the woods to have a picnic. Courtney tells Ben that she hasn&#8217;t been asked out on a date in a while. Sorry Ben, but Courtney doesn&#8217;t seem that genuinely into Scotch, or you. Ben seems oblivious and infatuated by Courtney. Is he in love? But the better question, is she playing him?</p>
<p>During the evening part of the date, Ben opens up about wanting to take the next step in his life. Ben gives Courtney the rose. He has such a big smile on his face and seems blown away by Courtney. Sadly, it looks like Courtney is more interested in fixing her hair for a good shot in front of the cameras than being sincere with Ben.</p>
<p>&#8220;Courtney does make me think big picture,&#8221; Ben gushes.</p>
<p>Courtney&#8217;s true colors come out back at the house. She&#8217;s more happy about getting a rose than with Ben&#8217;s feelings for her. &#8220;All the other girls should watch out, because I got the rose,&#8221; she boasts. &#8220;I&#8217;m very happy about how the date went.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the cocktail party, Ben spends some time with Lindzi. They seem to have a very easy connection &#8212; and she seems so into him. Ben, this girl is good for you. Keep her around.</p>
<p>Blakeley&#8217;s claws again come out. She keeps stealing Ben away during the party. &#8220;Everybody is about to elbow this b*tch in the face,&#8221; one girl warns.</p>
<p>Blakeley runs into the luggage room and hides in a corner to cry. She&#8217;s upset that the other women are hating one her. Ben finds Blakeley first to comfort her. Next, he has to pull Jenna out of a bed where she has also been crying.</p>
<p>Ben sends Jenna and Shawn home during the rose ceremony.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Former &#8216;Bachelorette&#8217; winner Jesse Csincsak tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively that he thinks producers told Monica to hit on Blakeley during Ben Flajnik&#8217;s &#8216;Bachelor&#8217; premiere.</h3>
<p><em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">Bachelor</a></em> producers love to spark drama to each season. Last season, notorious bad boy <strong>Bentley Williams</strong> played <em>Bachelorette</em> <strong>Ashley Hebert</strong> for a fool. This season, two women &#8212; <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Monica-Spannbauer/">Monica Spannbauer</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Blakeley-Shea/">Blakeley Shea</a></strong> &#8212; seem more interested in dating each other than <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Ben-Flajnik/">Ben Flajnik</a></strong>. Former <em>Bachelorette</em> winner <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Jesse-Csincsak/">Jesse Csincsak</a></strong> tells <strong>HollywoodLife.com</strong> exclusively that Monica and Blakeley&#8217;s whole interaction was probably staged by producers.<span id="more-543940"></span></p>
<p>&#8220;I think Monica and Blakeley are there for the simple fact to stir up drama,&#8221; Jesse shares with us. &#8220;They are being kept there by producers.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the premiere episode of <em><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/The-Bachelor/">The Bachelor</a></em> on Jan. 2, Monica openly professed to the cameras: &#8220;I love girls. I love Blakeley. There is something to be said about a gorgeous, real woman.&#8221; Then, she got caught cuddling up on a couch and flirting with Blakeley. &#8220;You&#8217;re my experience. If you&#8217;re the only thing I get out of this, I have lived and I have lived great,&#8221; she whispered to Blakeley. &#8220;I think there&#8217;s a lot of things that can come from this and it&#8217;s not just love. You are in my life forever. I know this. You, I don&#8217;t know what it is. You&#8217;re beautiful. You&#8217;re amazing. You know I need your number right?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I think these two were told to do that from the beginning and will stay on the show until there stupid tricks run out,&#8221; Jesse explains.</p>
<p>Jesse also believes that producers set it up so that <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Lindzi-Cox/">Lindzi Cox</a></strong> arrived on a horse. &#8220;I think Lindzi is a cool girl,&#8221; says Jesse. &#8220;I liked that she set herself apart from the rest of the girls by riding in on a horse, but only time will tell to see if she can keep from being produced because we know that she didn&#8217;t come up with the horse idea on her own. That was production.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ben had no clue that any of this folly was going on between Monica and Blakeley. &#8220;That was to my surprise,&#8221; he admitted to <em><a href="http://www.accesshollywood.com/" rel="nofollow">Access Hollywood</a></em>. &#8220;I don&#8217;t get to see everything.  I didn&#8217;t know it went on.&#8221;</p>
<p>Host <strong>Chris Harrison</strong> even pretended to be surprised. &#8220;I really don’t know what to make of Monica and Blakeley’s relationship,&#8221; he wrote in his <a href="http://popwatch.ew.com/2012/01/03/chris-harrison-the-bachelor-season-premiere-blog-2/" rel="nofollow"><em>Entertainment Weekly</em> blog</a>.</p>
<p>BFFs &#8212; do you think Monica and Blakeley&#8217;s relationship was staged?</p>
