Monica Spannbauer, Bachelor Castoff, Takes Shot at Ben Flajnik and Courtney Robertson

Monica Spannbauer, The Bachelor’s most recent castoff, says star Ben Flajnik and Courtney Robertson are a perfect match. Aww. So nice to say, right? No. She means that quite negatively. “I absolutely think she’s wrong for Ben, but the more I watch – obviously I don’t get to see everything that happens – they deserve each other,” she said. Courtney Robertson , who’s like a model, has made a nasty habit of hating on other girls while pursuing Ben. And saying “winning” like a complete tool. Monica Spannbauer, who ruffled a few feathers herself in The Bachelor house, says she had no beef with Court personally … but is still not a fan. At all. “Courtney isn’t a very nice person and I think she deserves everything that’s coming toward her,” Monica said, ominously. “Hands down, I think she’s somebody different around other women and somebody different around a man.” Spannbauer also had a nice parting shot for Ben Flajnik . “Courtney is really manipulative and good at what she does. Clearly that’s the kind of girl Ben’s looking for … If they end up together, they deserve each other, because if he’s that shallow and she’s that manipulative, then they totally work.” Meow!! You tell us … Courtney Robertson:

THG Presents: The Top 10 Celebrity Offspring Singers!

Did you hear? Jane Carrey , daughter of beloved actor Jim Carrey, received a golden ticket to Hollywood on American Idol this week.

That’s right, there are a number of famous artists with similarly famous parents. We count them down below… Jane Carrey American Idol Audition 10 . Hank Williams Jr. – Son of Hank Williams Sr. Loses points for being a narrow-minded moron . 9. Lisa Marie Presley – Daughter of Elvis Presley. Never responsible for any major hits.

Has written songs for Jennifer Hudson, Usher and Mary J. Blige. Impressive! 6. Willow Smith – Daughter of Will and Jada Smith.

Jordin Sparks – Daughter of former NFL star Phillipi Sparks. Idol champion. Super Bowl national anthem singer. Broadway actress. 3. Chynna Phillips – Daughter of John Phillips.

Loser Brad Womack Keeps Calling Emily Maynard

Brad Womack really needs to get over it and move on. Emily Maynard, who’s dating Jeremy Shockey , clearly us. But the two-time Bachelor star refuses to let go. That’s the report from the new issue of Us Weekly , which says Brad “calls Emily every day and at all hours!” Unfortch for B-Dubs, “She just doesn’t pick up.” “They actually haven’t spoken for months.” Maynard, mom to six-year-old daughter Ricki, started dating NFL player Shockey this fall, and was previously linked to David Smith after splitting with Brad. Brad is apparently far from pleased with either choice. He’s continually “filled up her voicemail with messages of him crying, saying how upset he was that she was with someone else,” the source reveals. At the same time, the typically non-committal stiff isn’t sure he wants to be with her … he’s just jealous and pining for her because he can’t have her. As such, Emily “just feels like he is so messed up!” Ben Flajnik , you have some pathetic shoes to fill.

Ben Flajnik: Skiing in San Francisco For The Bachelor!

The Bachelor star Ben Flajnik was seen filming the upcoming season of the hit ABC show this weekend. He and his bikini-clad babes were skiing. In California. Shooting is currently underway for the 16th season and Ben was spotted in his home city (shirtless, obviously) skiing down one of SF’s famous hills. Here’s a look at the hunk gripping his poles … The people at ABC managed to turn a San Fran street into a ski slope, filled with snow and ski bunnies, as seen in photos posted by Reality Steve. Since it’s not actually winter, there were no North Face parkas to be found. Ben Flajnik went shirtless and his suitors made for quality bikini photos . Ben, as fans know, was passed over by Ashley Hebert on The Bachelorette finale, but was then tapped for The Bachelor , airing in January 2012. We obviously wouldn’t miss it.

Rebecca Black Wants to Be Taken Seriously

Rebecca Black is well aware that she’s more of a punch line than a respected artist. But that’s why the 13-year old has followed up her much-maligned debut single, “Friday,” with ” My Moment ,” a more mature track that tackles the topic of bullying and online hatred. “I wanted people to able to take me seriously because I felt like this would be the right thing to do,” Black told MTV of the song selection. “I wanted to start building what could be a really great career, but this industry, it’s so unpredictable: You could be the big thing for a month or four months, and then kind of fall off the face of the planet. And I felt my whole team kind of felt like it was a great way to put me here for an amount of time.” “My Moment” is the lead single from Black’s upcoming album. It will be released next month and feature only five tracks. [Photo: WENN.com]

Nicky Hilton and David Katzenberg: It’s Over!

It’s all over for Nicky Hilton and David Katzenberg. Due to conflicting, hectic schedules, the couple has split after four years of dating, insiders confirm to The New York Post . “The main reason was that they have been busy with their work, and it has made it difficult to spend time together,” a source tells the newspaper . “Nicky has been back and forth traveling overseas a lot with her business. She has recently been in Asia promoting her jewelry line, and David is starting a new production company.” Katzenberg created MTV’s The Hard Times of RJ Berger , while Nicky actually does seem involved in the family business. She’ll be leaning on one of those family members in the face of this break up. “Paris and I are going to go to the South of France next week for some business and pleasure,” Nicky told Us Weekly on Wednesday.

Ryan Park: The Next Bachelor?

Ashley Hebert rejected Ryan Park not once, but twice this season. Still, she says The Bachelorette castoff is one of her top choices to be The Bachelor. Would Park consider a turn in the spotlight as ABC’s new Bachelor? “Maybe!” he said on a conference call with reporters, saying it would be an honor. While he was clearly stoked about the idea – almost as much as he is about tankless water heaters – he did say it’s no easy task to be in command. “Being the Bachelorette is hard!” Park said. “It’s unfortunate [Ashley] is being attacked for her insecurities, and how [Bentley Williams] preyed on that.” As for getting dumped twice, Ryan says he has no hard feelings. “When I was let go, I didn’t really understand, [but] now everything comes clear watching her chemistry with the other guys,” the 31-year-old said. Having been dispatched before the hometown dates, Ryan showed up in Fiji out of the blue in this week’s episode. Ashley sent him home again. “Timing has a place in every relationship. I do think Ashley and Icould

Brad Womack: Still Pining For Emily Maynard?

Monday on The Bachelorette, a tearful Emily Maynard drove the final nail in the coffin of her engagement to Bachelor star Brad Womack. “We’re not engaged anymore… I’m ready to say it,” she confessed, and among the few details she offered was her insecurity over whether his interest would wane: “I just doubted, you know, he was still gonna want to be with me.” Interesting, considering reports that Brad’s not over her . A heartbroken Brad has been lamenting that “he blew it,” sources say . A second insider adds that the bar owner has had a difficult time letting go, and that “When they weren’t together, Brad would drunk dial Emily and cry.” Womack’s over-the-top emotions could be put to another test should ABC tap Emily as the next Bachelorette . Says a friend bluntly, “It will kill him.” We don’t want to kill Brad, but having a single mother as The Bachelorette would be an interesting new angle. Do you agree? What do you think?
