“I immediately went to start swinging but I was like, stop it Demi, this is not Jerry Springer, calm down,” says Burnett. Instead, “I was so mad, I chucked it at her head!”

Still, Burnett says she won’t dwell on the incident. “I thought it was ridiculous. That was the best thing she could come up with, all these months later? But I don’t care. I’m friends with literally every other person in the house. And I don’t need to give her any more of my time.”

In fact, the actress and model took away much more than a couple tiffs with her fellowBachelorcontestants — she learned a lot about herself.

“I was one of the younger girls and I have a huge personality, so I knew I had a target on my back,” says Burnett of her initial time on the show. “But I stayed true to myself. I knew who I was and I knew that if people thought I was just putting on a show, I’d be able to prove them wrong.”

And ultimately, “the show encouraged me to tap into my vulnerable side,” says Burnett. “I don’t like to tap into it, but I’m glad I did. I don’t want to have to be strong all the time. I feel more comfortable being vulnerable, and I don’t have to be embarrassed about it.”
