Ben Flajnik Discusses "Women" Tell All Debacle, Seems Depressed About Being The Bachelor

Ah, The Bachelor’s traditional Women Tell All special . Courtney Robertson certainly didn’t enjoy it, and neither did The Bachelor himself, Ben Flajnik. That’s putting it mildly, based on his body language … and now his words. As he describes in his weekly blog, which has noticeably regressed in its enthusiasm and zest for life in recent installments (wonder why), he writes : On the WTA reunion : “At the risk of sounding harsh, I can’t say I was looking forward to seeing the women I had sent home over the past few weeks.” “I was surprised to see so many of the women still going at one another … I’d think that after a few months of not being around each other they would start to bond over the experience they had all just shared. I was wrong again.” On all the crap Blakeley Shea took : “I just want to say again, I respect the fact that she stood on her own and focused on our relationship and didn’t let the women affect her as much as most people would have thought.” On crazy, possibly coked-up Samantha : “I wish I could say something nice but honestly, I think you can all see why she went home earlier than expected based on the way she spoke to the women. I’ll leave it at that.” On Shawntel Newton : “Poor Shawntel. I still admire the fact that she followed her heart and came back to see me. The women were so cruel to her.” On Nicki Sterling and Kacie Boguskie : “I have nothing but respect for these two women and wish nothing for the best for them for the rest of their lives.” “It still breaks my heart to watch these women go through the pain I caused them by ending our relationships. I feel so lucky to have gotten to date them.” “They are women of a high caliber and I truly appreciate the honesty and vulnerability they showed me throughout our time together. Ugh. Still tough.” On Courtney Robertson : “I don’t think I even know where to begin.” “Believe me, I appreciate what she did, coming on Women Tell All and apologizing for her actions and it seemed genuine to me. I’m glad there was some sort of resolution with the women because it needed to happen.” “To see an emotional side of this woman was a good thing and it makes her feel like she is human, and a softer, sweeter side is shown … It’s a side that I saw throughout the journey that no one else did. I guess that’s it for now.” “One more week until the show is over and my time as The Bachelor is up. What a ride.” Spoken like a man who’s loved every minute of the experience.

Courtney Robertson: OWNED on The Bachelor Women Tell All Special

It’s normally a chance for the rejected bachelorettes to confront the man that sent them packing, but it was primarily Courtney Robertson in the hot seat and under fire on The Bachelor: Women Tell All episode Monday night. The women wasted no time in criticizing Robertson, calling her a villain, a phony, a grouch, a two-faced fame-seeker and pretty much an awful human being overall. And that was all before she even took the stage! Then it got worse: Courtney Robertson on The Women Tell All Not only was Courtney slammed – politely but forcefully – by third and fourth place finishers Nicki Sterling and Kacie Boguskie (probably the two nicest people ever), her former rival Emily O’Brien absolutely owned her ass Monday. Crocodile tears or not, Courtney was definitely crying up there. Surprisingly (or not, for a master manipulator), she chose to apologize, saying, “I’m sorry. I take it all back. Looking back, I’m really sorry I hurt all of your feelings.” “You may say it’s not genuine but it is,” she said. Mmm hmm. The Bachelor himself, Ben Flajnik, was only featured at the very end, starting off his not-even-10-minute segment by saying “welcome to my nightmare.” Doesn’t exactly bode well for his chances with Courtney, or Lindzi. Whoever Ben picks on the season finale next week (see our Bachelor spoilers page for more info on that oft-discussed topic), he’s not looking too pleased with life now. You tell us: Courtney Robertson on The Bachelor …

Ben Flajnik: Caught Kissing Random Girl?

Bachelor Ben Flajnik was allegedly caught kissing a girl not named Courtney Robertson or Lindzi Cox recently. You can see the photo of the kiss at Radar Online . We think. That could be her name, but that’d be an major coincidence. The finale of The Bachelor will air March 12 (see The Bachelor spoilers we’ve compiled for clues at how that turns out), but Ben and his fiancee are reportedly on the rocks already. There have even been rumors that it’s over . The alleged photo, taken on February 18, shows Ben clearly kissing a woman … and not in the way one kisses a friend or one’s sister. At least we think not. Ben and the brunette spent the evening walking his dog and made out in the cool San Francisco night. The two of them were all over each other, PDA style. Supposedly. Radar is not exactly reliable, though Ben has said that being The Bachelor was the worst experience ever, and watching this season has to hurt. Tonight, Courtney makes a surprise appearance on The Women Tell All special, during which she apparently acted annoyed and not very into Ben either. We’ll find out for sure in a matter of hours. In the meantime, who do you think Ben should choose on the finale one week from tonight, Lindzi or Courtney?

Hi Hater: Microsoft Puts Apple On Blast And Says They Make iPhones ‘Unusably Slow’ On Purpose

Microsoft, you mad? New Microsoft mobile head Terry Myerson says that Apple’s habit of releasing software updates for current iPhones is really just a way to sell more hardware: I think Apple ‑‑ you’re right, you can download iOS 5 for iPhone 3G, and it won’t be usable, but it’s possible to install …. It’s a great hardware sales tool as far as I can tell. Install this OS which makes your hardware unusably slow, so then you feel compelled to go back to the store and buy a new piece of hardware. He also said that Android phones don’t get updated at all: Statistically speaking, no Android phones get upgraded, none, ever. They have big bugs, they don’t even get patched. That’s what we’re seeing statistically out there. We guess he probably meant the 3GS, not the 3G, which doesn’t support iOS5. Is Microsoft just hating on all the success Apple has been having with the iPhone or do they have a point? But this does bring up the age old debate… iPhone, Android or Windows Phone?

Quote Of The Day: Kobe Bryant Says He Has No Rivals

Nope, none. Not D-Wade, not Bron Bron. Nobody: Lakers guard Kobe Bryant has always been lauded for his self-motivation and drive to be the best. It’s a good thing he has that internal ambition, because according to Bryant, he’s gone through his 16-year career without a true rival on the exterior to push him to succeed. “I didn’t have one,” Bryant said after scoring 38 points in the Lakers’ 115-107 win over the Sacramento Kings on Friday. Despite Bryant’s acknowledging that it’s not just another game, he wouldn’t characterize his relationship with LeBron James as a rivalry. “Not for me,” Bryant said. “I get up for everybody just the same, to be honest. It’s hard for me to turn my meter up any higher than it normally is.” OK, Bryant was asked, how about Dwyane Wade? After all, Wade plays shooting guard just as Bryant does, Wade has one Finals MVP trophy to Bryant’s two, and Wade has to be close to as competitive as Bryant or else he wouldn’t have given Bryant that hard foul across the face in the All-Star Game. “He’s too young,” Bryant said. “He’s too young. When I came into the league, he was in elementary school.” Bryant is three years older than Wade, but was already a seven-year veteran when Wade was drafted in 2003. Bryant said it is “a little late in the game” for him to develop a rivalry with any current NBA player, so instead he is chasing names in the record books rather than in box scores from the 2011-12 season. “At this point my rivals, in terms of what I have left to accomplish in my career, (left the game) when Magic (Johnson) and Michael (Jordan) retired in ’98,” Bryant said, referring to the second of Jordan’s three retirements that came after he won his sixth and final championship with the Chicago Bulls. “That’s it. In terms of what I’m looking to accomplish, that’s about it.” The San Antonio Spurs’ Tim Duncan won four championships to Bryant’s five throughout their shared careers, but Bryant said while the Spurs might have qualified as a team rival to his Lakers, Duncan’s individual rivalry came against Shaquille O’Neal as a fellow big man. “He was never in my position,” Bryant said. “He was more Shaq’s rival than mine. As a team, the Spurs were always a team that we had to go through. So from that standpoint, yes, but in terms of personally, no. I’ve outgrown them all, from A.I. (Allen Iverson) when I first came in to (Tracy) McGrady to Vince Carter and so forth and so on.” Bryant said that he developed the desire to win multiple championships from an early age. “It’s always what I want to accomplish,” Bryant said. “That’s what you set your goals at. Growing up, watching them, they’ve always won multiple championships and that was always something that I felt like must be done. So, my goal originally when I was a kid and so forth, and when I was a teenager, always started from gauging them.” Although he makes a valid point, someone is certainly feelin himself wayyyyy to much.
