It was the reality showdown (or meltdown?) of the year on Monday's "Bachelorette" special, in which Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi faced off in a battle of the he said/she said star-crossed lovers, regarding their nasty breakup.

What started off as a fairytale romance on "The Bachelor" turned into a bitter exchange of insults, with Vienna's parting words for Jake being, "You're a fame whore" and "the fakest person I've ever met." Not exactly hearts and flowers.
