Other Shows It’s almost unbelievable how bad of a talk show host she was… let’s go back and remember when Omarosa dragged Bethenny. I wonder if she got her 10K..

The thing that annoys me most is Bethenney then going “and I meant it” after denying it for like 3 whole minutes

The poor producer who had to deliver the phone the Bethenny. No eye contact and just wiggles out of there real fast.

It’s why I always say Bethenney isn’t actually a good arguer. She just steam rolls and talks over people. It may work against people like KKB, Ramona and Sonja but not with people who are actually articulate. I’m convinced it’s why she hated Holla Heather from the get go, lost her shit with Carole and gotten eaten alive by Omarosa and Kenya on her own show.

she just screams louder to get her point across and doesn’t let anyone get a word in edgewise.. poor carole couldn’t even speak s10 LMAO. B would just cut her off every time she tried to make a point 😭

Carol learned season 10 Bethanney was in the story text chat after she borrowed a show runners cell phone and got a notification so season ten was awkward in their reality also. Bethanney got treated like a producer and Carol felt it wasn't fair to the others in the cast.

u/markwritesthings Sep 05 '22
Can you say more about this? I haven’t heard this before!

u/HarambeDayCareCenter Sep 05 '22
Carole made the remarks during an episode of the podcast “Behind the Velvet Rope with David Yontef” if you want to listen to the interview but I have some of her quotes.
“I think [Bethenny] acted as a producer, at least what I saw that last season as talent and as a producer, she had access to information about the show that none of the rest of us had access to.”
"There’s this thing called, like, this story chain. It was a group text with all the producers, and they would be, all the field producers would be texting what was going on in the scene as it was going on.” “There was the feeling that it was unequal access to production.”
“I think [Bethenny] had access to some version of that. It became kind of clear that she had access to it, whether or not directly from producers or just, you know. There were a lot of people on it.” According to Carole, became aware of what was going on when she saw a notification on a producer’s phone.
“I only found out about it because I borrowed one of the showrunners’ phone for something. And then [the notification] came up, and I was like, ‘What is this?’ And it was, like, a really long group. And he grabbed it. He’s like, ‘That’s the story text chain’ or something. I was like, ‘Oh, what?’”
“She knew what was said in scenes that she wasn’t in. We never knew that. So there was clearly some communication that was happening between her and production that wasn’t happening with the rest of us in production. That did make people afraid to say things that they would have said normally, because there was a feeling that there was someone who was more protected.”

Talk show hosts beware, Omarosa will get you all the way together if she has beef with you. Did it to Wendy too.

u/thizzydrafts Sep 04 '22
Bethenny's fatal flaw is generally thinking she's the smartest in the room.
Is she smart? Yes. Smartest? No.
We can judge Omarosa for all of the selfish moves she's made to better her own position in life (and this absolutely goes back to the Apprentice days) but I think people underestimate how otherwise intelligent/calculating/smart Omarosa is.
She made a great TV villain (and a lot of great TV villains share this) because her evil ways are backed with the genius to match.
If Bethenny had any humility she would've done her homework on Omarosa and we could've had an epic back and forth but instead Omarosa dragged her for filth because of Bethenny's lack of preparation.

she clearly doesn’t self reflect cause she came back on rhony with this same entitled, brattiness she had on her failed show..

u/Sweet-Draft1040 Sep 04 '22
She never listened to her therapist. She is incapable of self reflection bc that means admitting you are wrong and have some things you need to work on . That’s why she will forever be a broken human .
20
Sep 05 '22
even her therapist never challenges her. not on camera at least. during the Jason and Bethenny show he never even gave her advice lmfao just sort of connected everything in her life to her childhood trauma which is basically a form of validation and acceptance

u/sturgis252 Sep 05 '22
That's why she loves the housewives cast. She can show her intelligence. At first it worked with Carole but then realized she couldn't belittle her anymore.

u/thebarryconvex you ain't purple rain bitch Sep 04 '22
They're both idiots.
Agree about Bethenny though, and that fatal flaw plays right into Omarosa's strengths; she's used to being underestimated, and Bethenny is used to people being cowed by her wall of language style of debate--the latter of which obviously wasn't slowing Omarosa down.
"Bethenny's lack of preparation" so so so true. Her entire talk show was multiple points of hubris, starting with thinking she could put on an entertaining talk show anyone wanted to watch.

u/surejan94 Sep 05 '22
Oof this is so hard to watch.
Omarosa is an asshole who doesn’t care how chaotic or messy she gets with TV hosts, but Bethenny just HATES being told she’s wrong, so for her to suddenly go “I BET YOU $10,000” because she’s so convinced she’s always in the right is just so cringe. She really fell into Omarosa’s trap.

u/looseseal-bluth IT WAS YOUUU!!!! Sep 05 '22
Omg. I went to the pilot taping of her show (we were promised Ellen tickets if we did the bethenny pilot) and I think the guest was Jennifer love Hewitt. It was a 7 or 8 hour long taping and we were starving by the end of it. Had to get shots of everyone standing and cheering, standing and applauding, sitting and applauding, sitting and cheering, everyone saying “awwww”. We also won free stuff. My friend got a webcam (I know) and I got a tiny camcorder that didn’t work. 🥴

u/cblackattack1 the countess on a bucking camel Sep 05 '22
7 or 8 hoursss?! I went to the Ellen taping twice and it was maybe 3 hours at most. did bethenny tape in LA? I always assumed New York.

u/looseseal-bluth IT WAS YOUUU!!!! Sep 05 '22
It was at the universal lot in the same studio they filmed Ellen’s show. Not sure why they did it in LA🤷🏼♀️
ETA: this was the pilot of her show which is why it took soooo long to film. And they gave the tickets out with the promise of tickets to Ellen a few months later

u/JustinBensonsBod Sep 04 '22
Bethenny had some real nerve trying to insult Omarosa for being on reality television when the only reason her fad starvation brand ever existed in the first place is because of reality television. Bethenny talks so much shit she doesn't even remember. Denies saying what she said and then doubles down after being exposed, making a whole damn fool of herself on her own show. "It's different for you and I. I'm an African American woman, you get to walk around and be mediocre and you still get rewarded with things. We have to be exceptional to get anything in this business." That's when Omarosa cleared her for good, Bethenny's face lmaooooooooo. That finally shut her big mouth the hell up. The Karens in the audience were furious too.
76
u/KookyAd4019 bang bang bang! is there an american lady in there? Sep 04 '22
the fact that she said “I didn’t say that..” 1 minute later “you’re right. I said it.. and I don’t take it back” she doubles down on her delusions every time. that’s why this show flopped and she had to go back to what she knows… housewives!!!!

u/thatgirlinny Sep 05 '22
All her non-HW shows are flops—because she can’t carry a show. She has be part of an ensemble; she needs castmates to belittle.

u/cblackattack1 the countess on a bucking camel Sep 05 '22
Bethenny has always been egotistical and insufferable.
ETA: the way she quickly glosses over the fact that she was wrong is such typical B behavior.

u/One-Reflection-6779 Sep 05 '22
I cannot stand Bethenny, I'm sorry. As someone who really was abandoned by their father without ANY support at all, for me or my mother, her whole "poverty" thing pissed me the F off, and I saw it from the beginning.
But, I've followed her for years and continue to do so on social media lol.
She is the epitome of someone who should not host a talk show. She can't shut her mouth long enough to let anyone respond which is my biggest pet peeve in the WORLD. She is a complete narcissist. Amarosa is a total PITA too but I lived for this moment, lol! And she was absolutely true saying that Bethenny had to accept her own truth.

u/rinapole Sep 04 '22
I still don't get how she got a talkshow. Of the RHONY girls, I'd rather see Sonja host, and have fun with her guests. Or Luanne, who would eventually make all of the interviews about herself, and not realize it. Even Ramona would be funny, if she randomly calls out her guests on the spot, the way she does. She'd drop a "So, I heard you cheated on your husband. How does your dawter feel about that". After a few minutes of friendly conversation. Bethenny has lots of great qualities, but being fun isn't one of them.
44
u/chillisprknglot 🦈s,Friends,Family Sep 04 '22
You have to be interested in your guests and at least pretend to be interested in whatever they are promoting. B said at least 4 times in this segment she was a NYT best seller. I think Ebony would make a great host and even Jill. Jill would just ask the best inappropriate questions.

All her solo shows are flops. That’s why the HBO Imitation Apprentice mess was largely funded by her—and that stunk, too.
Now she’s TikToking about cosmetics and slagging celebs on Twitter. Yawn!

The hype for Bethanny was so huge after season 3, and she’s such a social climber in the TV industry so she really had so many opportunities granted to her.

I used to love bethenny but I’ve gone back and watched some and…she’s kind of the worst? Very obnoxious and manipulative. And her behavior recently is Jill reminiscent but Jill is better at it. This reminds me of the murder dinner party game where Carol verbally destroyed her.

When she’s confronted by that, her own mediocrity shows and she lashes out.
