'Bachelor' Finalist Courtney Robertson's Shameless Game Plan
"The Bachelor" competitor Courtney Robertson covers the latest issue of US Weekly, and her bold tactics and overly confident attitude are revealed.
Robertson, a 28-year-old model, believed the other finalists -- Lindzi, Nicki and Kacie (who was recently eliminated) -- didn't stand a chance. An insider close to Robertson said, "Courtney told her family she had it all wrapped up. She didn't see any competition from, in her words, 'Horsey, Fatty and the Kid'" -- her secret nicknames for the other girls.
Courtney, whose famous exes include "Desperate Housewives" star Jesse Metcalf, Adrian Grenier and Reese Witherspoon's husband Jim Toth, admitted she doesn't usually date guys who look like Ben, but willed herself to find him attractive.
A source dished, "If you tell yourself for long enough that you like someone, you will like them."
"Bachelor" host Chris Harrison bluntly said, "Love is a game, and this is the way Courtney plays."
