Jake Threatens To PUNCH Vienna During 'The Bachelor Breakup' Taping?

First Posted: 06/24/10 06:17 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 05:55 PM ET

Jake Vienna Breakup Special Bachelor
'The Bachelor Breakup' special airs July 5.

UPDATE:
Producers denied any violence, saying:

"The atmosphere was emotionally charged. However, and contrary to reports that have surfaced about the interview, at no time was anyone ever physically in harm’s way, nor was anyone ever threatened with physical violence.”

PREVIOUSLY:
Jake and Vienna have already secretly reunited to tape their breakup special for ABC and multiple sources say Jake went into an uncontrollable rage, shaking his fist at his former fiancee, threatening to throw a punch, and screaming at her multiple times to shut up.

"Vienna was confronting him, exposing all his lies," a source told Star. "He started screaming at her: 'Shut up! Don't belittle me! Don't question me! Shut up!' And all of a sudden, he literally jumped out of his chair, pulled back his fist and lunged at her! All of the executives were freaking out. They pulled him off of her and rushed them off to separate rooms."

Sounds perfect for ABC, but the source claims even the producers were shocked.

"The execs were screaming at him, 'What the heck are you doing?' And the camera people were all like, 'Oh my god, we can't use any of this,'" the source said. "Vienna is scared to death."

Another source tells Radar a similar story and claims Vienna burst into tears after Jake's shocking display of anger.

"Jake was visibly angry," the source told Radar. "At one point out of nowhere he wheeled back and I thought he was going to throw a punch. He pulled his arm back and his hand was in a fist."

'The Bachelor Breakup' taped Tuesday night and airs July 5.

Quick Poll

Is it suspicious that ABC was able to tape a two-hour special one day after Vienna and Jake broke up?

Yes, there is no way they could get a crew together in time

Something seems funny

No, not at all

OK, yes I watched their interview and deserve flame messages for that alone.

That said, Vienna came across as immature, but that Jake dude is definitely off. What kind of secure guy smirks like that and barks at a chick like that? He didn't deny it when Vienna said he suddenly gave her little peck kisses (Gaydar alert much?)

Oh, and to that host of the show, Chris Whatshisface - hey dude, great feather-weight "interview", pal. Stick to the only thing you're good at: being Captain Obvious ("Allie, you have one rose left!")

I would LOVE for you guys to interview Jake's dance partner on Dancing with the Stars. He was the biggest cry baby on that show, well second to Kate. One night Jake was visibly angry when he and his dance partner were in a background shot. Please find out what that was about.
Maybe we should have a Jake plus Kate show to see who wins the Reality Nut of the year award.

Jake sounds like he needs to come out of the closet.

His real sweetheart is yet to be known..

He obiously has anger management issues.

I would not be surprised to see him on America's

most wanted in the future. His mom should be proud...not.

Does this strike anyone as appalling behavior? How much longer do gays have to be denied the right to marry? The argument is that gay marriage will somehow degrade "traditional marriage"...like this. Marriage is supposed to be a private, life affirming act with one that you love. This show does more to degrade traditional marriage than any thousand gay marriages will.

You mean its NOT for real? But its on TV? Tell me it’s not a bogus love boat wanna be posing as a "reality" show. You know if it says "reality" that it can’t possible be. Hello? People used to think that Lucille Ball”s last name was Ricardo.

I guess I am completely out of the loop, but who are Jake and Vienna and why do they matter to anybody?

@chicamorena

Consider yourself lucky for not knowing. They are both just looking for fame.

Can we please just stop this utter mindlessness before all our brains melt like crayons left out in the sun?

"don't you dare let them know I'm gay"!!!
05:48 PM on 06/25/2010
Well, I don't know if little Jakie is gay, but I suspect Vienna would be the one to turn a guy out and make him prefer another guy. I am so loving this...I watched the Bachelorette last year and this woman was toxic to the inth degree and he picked her...hehehehehe...I think Jake wanted his grab at the golden ring with a leg up on his interest in show bizness and he could always dump Vienna because she was classless idiot... don't know old Jake's sexual preference, but am loving this Vienna and Jake smack down.

Agree with you about her. Also suspect Conk may be right about him. At the least, there is something seriously "off" about him all the way around. Reports leaked from his DWTS partner's experiences with him are he's arrogant, controlling, self-involved and has a hair trigger in the temper department. The guy is decidely creepy. JMHO.

Wow, this guy sounds like a nice well rounded person.
