Bethenny Frankel Flashes a Live Audience

Originally posted 03/16/2012 04:00PM



Never one to shy away from eyebrow-raising antics, Bethenny Frankel has done it again.

The Bethenny Ever After star and upcoming talk show host, 41, flashed the live audience during a taping of the Anderson show.

In the episode, Frankel jumps down on the floor for a push-up contest with host Anderson Cooper, but in the process her dress lifts over her buttocks – and reveals bright pink panties.

With Cooper hunched over in chuckles, Frankel – whose embarrassment quickly faded – looks to the audience and says, "How'd it look?"

Of her bright undies, which matched her equally fun-colored Brian Atwood pumps, she said, "Pink? You saw the pink?"

The episode of Anderson is set to air on Monday, March 19. Dahvi Shira

Bethenny Frankel's Holiday Traditions with Daughter Bryn

Originally posted 11/04/2011 02:00PM

The holidays for reality star Bethenny Frankel is all about giving daughter Bryn, 18 months, the most special of memories: seeing Rockefeller Center's Christmas tree; starting a collection of special ornaments; and basking in New York's winter wonderland.

"I want Bryn to have her own traditions that we create together," says Frankel, 40, who will share the holiday glow with hubby Jason Hoppy, 40, and of course, prized pooch Cookie.

"We also want to make gingerbread cookies together," the Skinnygirl mogul says. "And look at all the holiday windows. She loves the lights, and the Christmas trees and she'll love the bells. She even has a little Santa outfit."

But even with her focus on family, Frankel still looks forward to hosting a festive evening during the busy holiday season. "Planning a party isn't about perfection – it's about having fun," she says.

Among her easy hosting tips: make an iPod compilation with party tunes (including a "wind down song" for the end of the night) and focus on soft lighting with lots of candles. "A bright party is really a killer," she says.

Most of all, don't sweat it in the kitchen, which often means buying prepared foods when time-crunched. "Even if you buy the cold shrimp platter at Costco, put it on a nice plate," she advises. "Try to make things a little more interesting."

The most important thing, she says, is to enjoy yourself. "I love the Christmas feeling especially when you live in New York," says Frankel. "And I can't wait to start our own family traditions together."
