Us Weekly is reporting that Bethenny Frankel auditioned for a Michael Bay movie. A source told Us, “Bethenny secretly read for a role in Miami, Florida, and she did a good job. Although she has no formal training, she has obviously gained a lot of experience working with cameras and she was totally comfortable with what she had to read. He didn’t know who she was but wanted her to read. When she went in, the casting directors were freaking out because it ended up being Bethenny Frankel. The casting guy realized it when Bethenny came to the office. They sent her an email after and said how great she was, she doesn’t know when she’ll find out if she gets the part, but the audition was fabulous.”

Ha! I love that Michael Bay didn’t know who she was. Has he been living under a rock? I know that not everyone watches Bravo, but how did he even agree to the audition if he didn’t know who she was?

I love the shift–in every reality star’s career there is a point where they think they can act. I’m surprised it took Bethenny this long to try to go there. I’m just waiting for someone to write the film, “When Reality Stars Try To Act.”

I’ll say this…At least she’s not trying to go into politics…if she were, she’d propose therapy once a day, and we’d all be required to brand ourselves by law.

About

She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    I just can’t bring myself to like this woman. I’ve tried, and I know other people think she’s great. I just think she is overbearing and self-important in a very obnoxious way. Maybe it’s because I know too many people like her in real life. I don’t even love to hate her, like Teresa from New Jersey or Kyle from Beverly Hills. I just hate her, period.
