The Bachelor Tierra LiCausi "A Little Dramatic," Chris Harrison Says

The Bachelor host-pimp Chris Harrison has insisted that mercurial contestant Tierra LiCausi is not a bad person, however she can be a little dramatic.

Ya think?

The Bachelor Clip: Tierra LiCausi Loses It

Tierra has been a source of controversy this season, and criticism intensified Monday when she cried, talked $h!t and threatened to leave the show.

Her antics prompted Sean Lowe to offer her a rose to convince her to stay, which didn’t help matters as far as the other women in the house see it.

How long will she last? The Bachelor spoilers we’ve read say … well, follow the

Emily Maynard-Chris Harrison Romance Alleged By Tabloid, Vienna Girardi

The Bachelorette star Emily Maynard has four sexy suitors left, but the true object affection is newly-single host Chris Harrison, a tabloid hilariously claims.

Star cites “insiders” involved with the hit ABC reality show talking about how close the pair have become, with some even saying they are “madly in love.”

While this revelation is new, the “electric attraction” has caused sparks to fly from the beginning, even before Chris and wife Gwen split up this spring.

“Chris openly told staffers that Emily was the most beautiful woman he’d ever laid eyes on,” said an insider, who apparently

Chris Harrison and Wife Gwen: It’s Over!

The Bachelor host Chris Harrison and his wife of over 18 years, Gwen, are divorcing.

The couple announced their separation “after much heartfelt consideration” today.

“Though we have made this incredibly difficult decision to separate, our love and mutual respect remain, and we look forward to sharing in the lives of our wonderful children,” Chris and Gwen said in a joint statement Thursday.

Harrison, 40, is best known for hosting ABC’s The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. In 2010, he was accused on-screen of hitting on a producer’s wife.

At the time, he was hardly ruffled by the “cheap

Courtney Robertson and Ben Flajnik Just Might Work, Bachelor’s Chris Harrison Opines

The Bachelor host Chris Harrison spoke to reporters via conference call today and shared his thoughts on the re-engaged Ben Flajnik and Courtney Robertson.

Chris paints a fair portrait of the controversial couple, and sympathizes with Courtney (though he concedes he and his family were Team Lindzi from the start).

Will the couple make it? Will we see them on TV again? And what was it like whipping out that ring on the After the Final Rose special? So many questions.

Excerpts from his lengthy interview on all of that and more below:

On whether he’s rooting for rooting Ben and Courtney:

Government Shutdown 2011: What You Need to Know

Negotiations continue in an effort to forestall the great federal government shutdown of 2011, but both parties continue to dig in their heels in D.C.

With all the rhetorical arguments, the finger pointing and buzzwords surfacing around this potentially cataclysmic event, it’s easy to get confused.

It’s also crucial to stay informed about what really matters.

Lucky for you, THG’s here. Here are 10 things you need to know about the impending shutdown, which will occur at midnight if no deal is reached:

  1. The President is the tanner of these two guys, but not by that much.
  2. Congress’ awesome

The Bachelor Season Premiere Recap: Brad Womack Attacked, Swooned Over, Seeking Closure

THG has a very interesting relationship with The Bachelor. It’s neither love-hate, nor unbridled love, nor unfiltered hate. It’s hard to put our finger on.

What we do know is this. For years, we’ve harped on what a d!ck Brad Womack is for ditching both DeAnna Pappas and Jenni Croft on the finale.

We’ve also harped on what contrived nonsense this show is. That’s what makes Brad’s return this season so oddly compelling: Its genuineness.

THE LUCKY 30: One of these women will become Mrs. Brad Womack. Or two of them will be dumped on the season finale. You never know with Brad!

Chris Harrison Previews Compelling, Scandal-Free Season of The Bachelor

In an exhaustive and not very revealing new interview with TV Guide, King of All Pimps Chris Harrison previews the new season of The Bachelor.

In Chris’ defense, he can’t yet reveal The Bachelor spoilers we’ve already posted. His job is to get people pumped for the return of Brad Womack.

That return, he says, was not easy for the star – or the women.

“There’s a large group out there that’s like, ‘Screw this guy. I hope he falls on his face and gets what coming to him,’ and he does,” Harrison said.

Brad, who dumped both DeAnna Pappas and Jenni Croft three years ago, faces some skeptical

Roberto Martinez & Ali Fedotowsky Planning Spring Wedding, Putting Each Other First

She’s no longer The Bachelorette after an emotional finale, but if all goes according to plan in the coming months, Ali Fedotowsky will soon go by another name:

The Bride.

Hunky Roberto Martinez popped the question Monday night on ABC, and is apparently serious about making the Massachusetts native his wife in short order.

“In the spring, we’re thinking,” Ali said when asked about when she’d like to marry her new fiance, who she chose over the broken-hearted Chris Lambton.

While their wedding will likely be a big event – “Her mom wants like 700 people,” Martinez said – the couple already

The Bachelorette: Alternate Endings Filmed?

With just a few days remaining until The Bachelorette season finale, speculation is still running rampant about what its star, Ali Fedotowsky, decides.

Does she choose Roberto Martinez or Chris Lambton? Does she reject both remaining suitors in what would amount to a huge emotional letdown?

Whatever the case, the show has done well keeping it under wraps. All Bachelorette spoilers we know are the same ones we’ve known for weeks.

Perhaps this is a testament to the greatness of Reality Steve, god among spoiler fiends for several seasons and perennial thorn in Mike Fleiss’ side.

The Bachelorette Recap: Frank Neuschaefer Dumps Ali in Tahiti For Mediocre Girl Back Home

Whether it was the producers’ idea, him writing himself into his own screenplay or prompted by genuine emotions, Frank Neuschaefer’s move last night was ballsy.

Dumping Ali Fedotowsky for his ex-girlfriend this late in the game? That stings. Far worse than the antics of Justin “Rated R” Rego, who was far more transparent.

Frank was awkward. He was sad. He confused the hell out of us. And he broke Ali’s heart. Love it or hate it, this was the watershed moment of the season so far.

Oh yeah, and two guys were also there vying for her heart (and no one else’s). THG breaks down Monday’s

Should Casey James Be the Next Bachelor?

He came in third on season nine of American Idol.

But Casey James might wanna finish first in the heart of a reality show contestant, he admits, recently expressing an interest in The Bachelor.

After everyone’s favorite host/pimp, Chris Harrison, ran into James at a party last month, he told the singer that he’d perfect for the ABC series. Responded James to OK! Weekly:

“I’ll try anything once. I’m always up for a new experience.”

Plenty of room under these arms, ladies!

James is busy with the American Idol tour right now, but you can imagine his reaction when pitched the idea of 25 women

Team Jake: Vienna’s Tears Were So FAKE!

Jake Pavelka hates Vienna Girardi so hard.

Not only did he berate her during their heated interview on The Bachelorette, his camp is accusing his ex-fiancee of using “tear-inducing eye drops” beforehand.

In the tense and dramatic face-off, Jake and Vienna met with the ABC show’s host and pimp, Chris Harrison, for the first time since they announced their split.

It was a bitter scene throughout.

Insults were traded, harsh words were exchanged and things escalated to the point where Jake raised his hand angrily and told Vienna to quit interrupting him.

She broke down sobbing and stormed More >

The Bachelorette: Most. Dramatic. Episode. Ever.

As soon as Ali Fedotowsky declared in the opening moments that she has never felt better, you knew The Bachelorette was going to be good. But not this good.

Not even the spoilers we’ve known all season long could have prepared us for the unspeakable awesomeness that was the ABC show’s outing of Justin Rego.

According to reports, it wasn’t even faked. Rated R was legitimately busted, undone by his two-timing ways in Canada, a scandal dumped in producers’ laps.

It was classic.

Obviously, you can’t help but wonder what was re-edited, re-shot or flat-out contrived, but does it really matter?

Jake Pavelka Didn’t Threaten Vienna [Source]

Since they split up the relationship of Bachelor turned Dancing With the Stars contestant Jake Pavelka and ex-fiancé Vienna Girardi has seen a bunch of bumpy spots from around the rumor mill, the latest allegation being that on June 23rd  Girardi went into hiding over threats Pavelka made against her.

A source close to the incident told People:

“That’s bull. Jake did not threaten her. Anyone that knows Jake – including Vienna – knows that physically threatening someone is not in his character.”

According to Pavelka’s rep, the Dallas pilot hasn’t seen Girardi in person since they last

The Bachelorette: Faking Justin Rego’s Injury?

Maybe they call Justin Rego Rated R for Re-shot and Re-edited.

On the June 7 episode of The Bachelorette, Ali Fedotowsky suitor Justin Rego famously limped, supposedly, to her mansion wearing a cast on his left foot.

Or was it his right foot? That depends on what clip you watch!

Hobbled wrestler Justin “Rated R” Rego was trekking up a hill one moment, then emerges in Ali’s talking-head moments later with it on the other foot.

Hey, at least they didn’t show the cab dropping him off.
