In his war of words against Rozlyn Papa, Bachelor host Chris Harrison says he's amassed powerful friends to his cause: Bachelors and Bachelorettes of seasons past.
"One of the coolest things has been the response I've gotten from all the former Bachelors and Bachelorettes," Harrison told E! News after Monday's combative Women Tell All special.

"Trista, Ryan [Sutter], Andrew Firestone, Andy Baldwin, Bob Guiney, Jesse Csincsak, Deanna [Pappas] -- all these people have just come out of the woodwork saying 'We've got your back,' from texts or twitters, and it's kind of cool," he says.
Which former Bachelors are now single?
During the Women Tell All show, Harrison grilled Papa about her alleged "inappropriate" relationship with show producer Ryan Callahan; she fired back by calling the married dad of two a "cheater." (He later called Papa "desperate" for the claim.
"I feel really good about it all," Harrison says about Monday's 'show. "I wanted the audience to hear the details--what the women saw, how [Rozlyn and the producer] made it so obvious and out in the open."

The TV host also makes a promise: "You won't hear me speak out about Rozlyn any more after this interview."
Tell Us What You Think
66Here is some free advice. STAY AWAY FROM CHICS WITH FAKE BOOBS. Nowhere on earth does lower self esteem lurk than in tramps who do that. Don't say you weren't warned
WHAT? Andy Baldwin doesn't know who Roz is, and hasn't seen an episode this season. I don't know where Chris gets off thinking that Andy weighed in on this. Chris is fibbing.
Yo, Chris, Andy Baldwin says he has no idea who Roz is and doesn't know what you're talking about. I think you may be fibbing a bit.

If Chris Harrison is the piece of trash many of you act like he is he wouldn't have taken the crap that Rozlyn gave him. He was a first class act. Every time I read one of these comment lists I just can't believe what I read. Will one of you that hates Chris, Fleis, ABC, every bachelor and bachelorette and anyone else that has anything to do with the bachelor and bachelorette shows please tell me why you watch the show and make your comments? There is a switch on your TV so you can choose what you want to see. These shows are pure entertainment to me. I don't want someone to tell me who is the winner and I don't want anyone telling me that every bachelor or bachelorette is a piece of trash. I really enjoy this show and I take it as entertainment and that is what more people should do.
It's so obvious that Roz was lying. She came loaded for bear. It was telling that unlike the other two moms, she has such a bad relationship with her ex that he wouldn't sign a release -- she really did come across as a piece of work. The accounts of the other bachelorettes re her actions with the producer were truthful -- she was caught with her pants down so to speak by SEVERAL others. And then she swore on her child's life that everyone else was fibbing -- that was so shocking, I didn't really hear much after that statement. She sounds like a terrible mother who is nothing but a bad influence on her child. Doesn't she realize that in time the producer (after the relationship fails) and even her closest friends who know the truth will sell her out when the tabloids offer them $$? And then she's on tape saying she 'swears on her child's life' on what we know is a lie and will be proven in the future beyond a shadow of a doubt. Oh, and the part about her claiming Chris was hitting on the producer's wife??? The producer who himself hit on one of the bachelorettes and whose own marriage is now in divorce court? Roz is pure evil.
It is not about Vienna. Get over yourself Jayzee.
GO AWAYYYYYYYYYYYYY! It's people like her that ruined that Bachelor. Actually the current and last season's bachelor did a pretty good job of it too; so the show should just end already!
this is about vienna. She said she has been married before but left her husband while he was in the military. This last week she said she has never been in love before. What to believe???
The s k a n k got busted and thought she could lie her way out of it. She's so cheap and nasty.
This show is fake, fake, fake. Otherwise, they would have edited out Roz' comment about Chris hitting on the producer's wife. Why can no one understand this show is fake and they now will do anything to raise the ratings.
The show has jumped the shark. This season has been the dirtiest of the bunch.
Is Rozlyn an angel? Obviously not, but neither are any of the other girls on this show, especially the ones who have already slept with the same guy - Jake. If Rozlyn had slept with Jake, there would have been no stern lecture from Chris Harrison. She would have been esteemed for acting on "love". She might even have won the "prize" - more time with Jake until the relationship sizzled. The reason Chris is taking crap for this is because most people rightly realize that NO ONE on this show deserves to "cast the first stone" (borrowing words from the Bible). As a show based on less than perfect morals, why are we surprised when less than perfect morals surface? Chris Harrison's lecture to Rozlyn, as well as the other girls chiming in to blast her felt exactly like Jimmy Swaggart calling everyone else sinners while he was sleeping with a prostitute.
Well, she made a fool out of herself, she didn't need Chris for that! I think he handled himself & the situation very well! Much better than I would have. On another note, I swear I saw ms. plastic in a BudLight commercial. I sure hope they don't continue to put her on TV. What a poor role model and she's a mother too?? Sad!

I don't know anything about Chris Harrison, but Roz is a cheap floozy. She lies faster than a horse can trot. And another thing--she's not all that. From the marshmallow cheeks to the fake boobs. I would say she had hot pants, but I am pretty sure she doesn't wear any. I feel bad for the decent women who have been on this show and have to be associated with her.
It was quite obvious to me that Rozlyn was lying through her teeth. Things may be staged on the show, but petty or not, the women in the house are not blind! She's a not worthy! Open your eyes people, she got her 12 minutes of fame. She can now slither back into the wood work!
I doubt Chris is the next Tiger.
Except that this guy is a WORM! I don't believe Rozlyn 100%, but I do believe that the women were being petty and jealous. Even Velishia said that she was being swayed by the producers to speak out agains Rozlyn. I don't know what happened, but I certainly don't believe a thing that comes out of Chris Harrison's mouth. He is paid by ABC to market whatever fits their agenda. He looks skeevy and smarmy, I wouldn't bet against him hitting on said producers wife.
CHRIS HARRISON ENOUGH ALREADY!! What is this guy's problem??? He's using it for publicity and its obvious!! PAST contestants WEREN'T there so what do they know!!! This whole season is really making itself a joke & Chris Harrison needs some serious issue counseling if he's spending all of his time trying to prove what he said was the truth!!
