Bethenny Frankel Sold "Skinnygirl" For Significantly Less That The Reported $120 Million

My gal Bethenny Frankel has been under severe media scrutiny as of late! First, she was accused of drumming up a plan to become lost at sea while taping her hit reality TV show (according to her, she was actually lost at sea during a trip with her husband Jason Hoppy for a few hours). And now it has been revealed that the "Skinnygirl" honcho actually sold her burgeoning enterprise for significantly less, as opposed to what was originally reported - that she netted a whopping $120 million. 

According to financial records posted on the Fortune Brands website, Bethenny sold her line of low calorie alcoholic beverages for just $8.1 million. 

WAIT. Wasn't Forbes the one who actually FEATURED Bethenny on their cover which lead folks to believe she made/sold "Skinnygirl" for $120 Million?!?!?!? I'm confused....

Although Bethenny never confirmed or denied "Skinnygirl" selling for that particular figure, the reality star has MUCH to be proud of! She has licensed deals for workout DVDs,  clothes, weight loss supplements, books, and MORE!


Nothing to laugh at, ya know! I love Bethenny.....inspiring!

Wanna See How Ellen DeGeneres And Wife Portia de Rossi Are Living???

Funny lady/talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and gorgeous wife, actress Portia de Rossi gave us an inside look into their Beverly Hills mansion via the pages of Architectural Digest.

Oh and get this...the house is on the market for a reported $49 MILLION.

*collapses*

"We never had a house when I was growing up. We always rented. But my father would dream, and we used to look at houses all the time. I'd pick out which bedroom would be mine and get all excited. The first thing I did when I made money was buy a house. And then..." Portia added, “Another one... And another one and another one and another one."

That has to be a GREAT feeling!

So Dancers...wanna know what a $49 MILLION house looks like? Get into it under the break....

 

That's a glass ping-pong table....NIIICE!

 

 

It looks VERY comfortable, but $49 MILLION? I guess....

Somethings I will NEVER understand about Hollywood. I hope she can sell it....
