Bethenny Frankel on 'How America Gets Fat'



ABCNews.com:
She's the self-proclaimed queen of TMI -- too much information -- and, even during a yoga lesson, Bethenny Frankel can't help but overshare.


"This is [the] plank pose," she said as she balanced her upper body on her elbows. "This is good for looking at your cleavage."


Frankel is the hard-charging reality show star who has spent years cracking lewd jokes: "Think of my vagina as a vase. If you sleep with me, you need to send it flowers," is one of her more famous quips.

But she's more than just a naughty, quick wit -- these days, Frankel, a trained former chef, is busy building a multi-million dollar empire on three "f" words: food, fitness and fame. Nutrition books, workout videos and a line of low-calorie "SkinnyGirl" foods are among her many ventures, which in 2010, earned Frankel an estimated $4 million, according to The Daily Beast.

It's a far cry from Frankel's life just three years ago -- when she said she couldn't afford to pay her rent.

Gifts from boyfriends helped her get by, she said.

"I dated guys that were rich and they helped me with my rent," she said.
