Bethenny Frankel

This might seem like a strange choice but bear with us.

Sure, Bethenny Frankel already had a talk show, Bethenny, and it only lasted one season, even with Ellen DeGeneres as an executive producer. But Frankel isn’t one to give up that easily; if she was, she wouldn’t have her successful Skinny Girl empire.

Bethenny is a fast-talking New York girl, and she will put anyone in their place if they get out of line. On The Real Housewives of New York, she never shies away from a shouting match with housewives like Ramona Singer or Luann de Lesseps. But it’s always to defend her honor or to bring those big personalities back to reality.

On her daytime show, Bethenny had to be more reserved and wholesome for the daytime TV audience. But on late-night, she can be as brash and loud as she wants. Even with her fiery attitude, though, she’s a consummate professional. She would definitely handle her show with the same savvy mind she built her business with.

Imagine the kind of guests Bethenny could get on her show to spar with. She could go head to head with politicians, controversial public figures, or even just any other celebrity with an attitude. We definitely got a taste of her no-bullsh*t demeanor when she kicked an inappropriate guest off her talk show for making a racist comment, so imagine the drama she could produce on late-night?

Plus, the entire show would be one giant advertisement for Skinny Girl. Maybe not great for us, but it would be a win-win for Bethenny!
