The Cattiest Place On Earth: Camp Bravo

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJune 26, 2011 //


Bravo shows are kind of like the beach reads of television programming. So I like that for the past few summers, the channel has gathered its stars and made a big promo featuring all of them. This year Andy Cohen, Bethenny Frankel, et al pack up and head to Camp Bravo, where Patti Stanger drops Jill Zarin in a trust fall exercise and Teresa Giudice shoots an apple off Kyle Richards’ head. Fun! Keep reading »

Could Bethenny Frankel Be The New Oprah?

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJune 16, 2011 //

Oprah has been gone for three weeks now, and there is a serious void in the daytime television universe. Who will step forward to give us life advice and book recommendations, and just generally take on the mission of keeping us sane? Perhaps … Bethenny Frankel? According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bethenny is filming a talk show pilot as we speak. And she’s working on it with heavy hitters—Telepictures, the company behind “The Tyra Banks Show” and “Ellen.” Ms. DeGeneres herself even has a hand in creating the series.

So, could Bethenny be the next Oprah? Keep reading »

Skinny Girl, Bethenny Frankel, Admits She Was A Diet And Exercise Addict

Ami AngelowiczFebruary 17, 2011 //

“I spent my entire life being obsessed with dieting … Bingeing and then fasting or starving. Forbidding everything. That’s how I used to be: up and down five pounds every single day, to the extremes. My metabolism was totally wrecked … I would go buy magazines just to see what the new diet was and rip it out.”

– Bethenny Frankel on overcoming her diet and exercise addiction. I think it’s brave of her to admit this considering her line of work is creating dieting products and books for women. She talks about being sent to an obesity clinic by her mother when she was only eight years old. That stuff stays with you for life. It becomes ingrained so deeply in your unconscious that the thought patterns are difficult to break. I think many women (including myself) will find her story extremely relatable, especially those who were told they were fat or struggled with weight issues as children. [Us Weekly] Keep reading »

“Real Housewivese” Kyle Richards And Bethenny Frankel Go Way Back

Ami AngelowiczNovember 6, 2010 //

“[I've known Betthenny] for like 20 years. She was the hostess at a restaurant in Beverly Hills. … She’ll probably kill me for saying this. But I was having lunch one day and she plopped down right next to me and said, ‘Do you use Lancome eye makeup remover?’ Turns out she was dating my ex and the Lancome was in his apartment. We started laughing and became friends. Then I got her a job with my sister driving Paris and Nicky [Hilton] to school.”

—”The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” cast member Kyle Richards on how she knows fellow Bravo-lebrity, Bethenny Frankel. It’s a small world after all, isn’t it? Although I have a feeling Bethenny’s not going to be thrilled about being outed as Paris Hilton’s former chauffeur. [NY Post] Keep reading »

Bethenny Frankel Exposes Her Skeletons During Closet Confession

Annika HarrisSeptember 22, 2010 //

Bethenny Frankel isn’t one to withhold juicy details or consider many aspects of her life off-limits for public consumption. So you know her Bluefly Closet Confession was the funniest one thus far. Bethenny still does a mean impression of her former NYC housewives. But we also learned that she has stuff in common with some of The Frisky ladies. She loves a good bargain like Amelia and I, knows an LRD is a must-have, and isn’t afraid to tailor or alter a garment to fit her. Plus, we get a look into baby Bryn’s closet too.

This Is What An Incredibly Hormonal Woman Looks Like

Amelia McDonell-ParryAugust 14, 2010 //


On “The Real Housewives of New York City,” Bethenny Frankel was known for her disarming wit and tough as nails attitude. On “Bethenny Getting Married,” her spin-off show which just ended its first season, she showed a decidedly softer and, uh, wetter side. Seriously, homegirl — who, in fairness, was pregnant for the majority of the tears — cried a lot. Here’s proof. Keep reading »

Quotable: Bethenny Frankel’s Wedding Planner Explains How He Made It Happen

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJuly 9, 2010 //

“I’ve never planned a wedding in four weeks, so I think short of putting Dixie cups on the table, we did a fabulous job. I was very pleased with it and I think viewers have seen all the hard work and now they’re going to see the pay-off. … I called [the Four Seasons] 20 times a day and literally was begging them. How we got it, I still to this day am not sure how or why they said yes. They did, that’s all I care about. After that, I was like, ‘Fine. The world could crumble down around me. I could care less. I got her venue.’ … For all the times that Bethenny threatened me, Cookie, her dog, took the action.”

—Shawn Rabideau, aka Bethenny Frankel‘s wedding planner who looks disturbingly like Buster Bluth, talks about how he pulled off Bethenny’s dream wedding in 30 days [PopEater] Keep reading »

Tonight Is The Night Bethenny Pees In The Bucket!

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJuly 8, 2010 //


Tonight is the big night on “Bethenny Getting Married?” Yes, we want to see how the wedding unfolds, which housewives are invited, and what they’re wearing. But what we really, really want to see is the scene we’ve been looking forward to all season—when Bethenny pees in a bucket in her wedding dress. “How many minutes from now until I can pee?” she asks her wedding planner. “Maybe 35 minutes,” he responds. Bethenny freaks. “The baby’s head is on my bladder,” she says. “The bathroom is exactly where the guests are. In order for me to pee, I have to walk through my guests in my wedding dress. I can’t walk through the guests, ‘Hey everyone, just stepping to the loo.’ Let me just lift my leg and then walk down the aisle.” The solution? Watch it above. I would’ve driven the girl to the nearest fast food restaurant or bar, but hey, that’s just me. Keep reading »

  • Mariah Carey has allegedly decorated the inside of her and Nick Cannon‘s nursery pink for a girl. Cue the butterflies, glitter and totally age-inappropriate bling. [Guanabee]

“The Real Housewives Of New York City” Reunion: Watch Alex Take On Jill

Annika HarrisJune 10, 2010 //

Alex McCord was by far my favorite NYC housewife this year because she finally stopped holding in her anger and let people know exactly what she thought of them. The main target on the receiving end of Alex’s wrath was a very deserving Jill Zarin. We had a little hint of Alex calling Jill out during the season, but even I could feel Alex’s frustration at Jill’s annoying and defensive arguing. On the reunion tonight at 9 p.m., though, it seems Alex has practiced exactly what she wants to say to the hawker of fabrics and gossip. Check out the video above for a little taste of their word battle and peep Bethenny Frankel reaming Kelly Bensimon after the jump. And is it just me or does it look as if another Kelly personality is about to come out when the clip ends? Keep reading »
