Bethenny Frankel And Her Fake Engagement
It seems that the new show of former Real Housewife Bethenny Frankel might be stretching the boundaries of what is reality. According to Fox News, Bethenny isn't really engaged Jason Hoppy and he really isn't a real estate broker either. In preparation for the start of her show, The Skinny & The City, Bethenny got engaged. It was rumored that the season would follow her as she traveled the country selling her book and making wedding preparations.
Of course if you are going to make preparations to get married it really helps if you actually have someone with whom you are going to get married. It turns out that although Jason lives in New York he isn't registered to sell real estate there or in any other state in the country. His actual profession? Medical sales rep/personal trainer. To me that sounds like a guy selling supplements out of the back of his car trunk while he tells people they should be working out 3 times a week to gain the maximum amount of girth from his products.
None of this really matters. I'm pretty sure by now that people have got the memo that reality doesn't necessarily mean real or close to real or anything approaching real life. It is what it is and if you are entertained by it then watch it. I will say though that it is best to not buy your supplements from a trainer who is selling you pills from his car.
Yawn.
ReplyDeleteWhat bothers me is that they can market this crap as reality and for some reason people watch it, yet it is subpar entertainment to "scripted" shows when it is as made up. Yet the writers get no guild protection or wages. Bullshit.
ReplyDeletehow is this bethany person relevant again?
ReplyDeleteMy co-worker went to high school with Jason Hoppy, I'll try to find out what real the story is.
ReplyDeleteWow, color me suprised that the reality these people pretend to live is skewed.
ReplyDeleteWatching this kind of crap TV like I do, I've noticed that 99% of the participants are medical sales rep slash something.
ReplyDeleteShe really is pathetic and desperate for fame.
ReplyDeleteWhat can I do to avoid seeing her square face ever again?
ReplyDeleteNo idea who this person is.
ReplyDeleteThis is WAY OT...I watched the Goonies on TBS yesterday while couch-ridden with a migraine.
I hadn't seen it in years, but loved it as much as always. My favorite Chunk scenes were with the Fratellis when he started confessing to every bad thing he'd ever done. High-larious.
So Enty, if you are Jeff Cohen, I just want to say thanks for such an enduring, endearing character portrayal!
Califblondy, medical sales reps are the new used car salesmen.
ReplyDeletethat damn jaw.ugh
ReplyDelete"Yet the writers get no guild protection or wages."
ReplyDeleteAnd that is the real story of reality TV!
Bethenny is one of those women who never wind up with a straight man. The women I know who are fag hags CANNOT sustain a relationship with a straight man. Okay, I can think of one, but that's it. I don't know why it works that way, but it does.
ReplyDeleteI don't mean regular women who have gay male friends. I mean the type of sarcastic, fabulous woman whose social circle is almost exclusively gay.
