Bethenny Frankel talks 'Bethenny and Fredrik,' Her Influence on 'Real Housewives' and New Business Learnings

AOL.com:

Bethenny Frankel doesn't have time to think about her hair, thank you very much.

When I sat down with the original "Real Housewives of New York" cast member last week, she was in the midst of a pre-Super Bowl celebration with Febreze, preparing for the series premiere of "Bethenny and Fredrik," in-between filming for the upcoming tenth season of "RHONY" and celebrating the launch of Skinnygirl Jeans.

And those are just the newest developments in her life. So, when I remarked that her hair had never looked better (really, it looks phenomenal!), Frankel seemed surprised.

"I don’t think about it that much!" she said with a laugh and, well, I believed her.

Which, of course, is nothing new. For six of the nine seasons of "The Real Housewives of New York" (she left the show for three seasons before a much-heralded return), Frankel has been the woman that viewers can count on to tell it like it is -- no holds barred. With Bethenny, there's no beating around the bush, no passive aggressive behavior and no bullshit. She doesn't have time for it; she never has, and she never will.

"Andy [Cohen] told me years and years ago that I might have been the one who wasn’t married or the broke one, but they had me come on as the sort of Greek chorus or the narrator," she told me.
