This weekend Bethenny Frankel found herself bringing her Real Housewives Of New York drama-causing antics onto real fans! In front of real celebrities.
During an intimate VIP Coldplay concert attended by a room full of super divas like Gwyneth Paltrow, Jay and Bey, Sarah Jessica Parker, Karlie Kloss, and Jimmy Buffet, Bethenny was the only biggest drama queen of them all! Perhaps among all the A-List talents, she needed do something to attract some attention for herself?

Sources say that Bethenny became annoyed by a trio of women in front of her, and after attempting to pay security to have them move so she could see better (which the women refused), Bethenny retaliated by flinging a drink at them.
Bethenny “was really nasty, asking them to move,” then “flew into a rage” and “ordered [a drink and] then threw [it] at the women . . . They were speechless.”
A witness describes the incident as “weird” to Page Six – especially since neither Bethenny nor the women were in a “prime section of the bar” and she wouldn’t have been able to see much better even if the ladies moved. The women were normal people – “SiriusXM subscribers who won tickets to be there.” (Bethenny’s radio show, B Real With Bethenny, is on SiriusXM)
Hmmm… something tells me THIS was Bethenny’s problem: she felt those women weren’t deserving of a better view than she got, since she’s so all-mighty and important; plus she wasn’t getting all the supremo view of the real celebs and tantrumed like the toddler she isn’t! Harvey Weinstein was also seated nearish Bethenny, but we didn’t hear about him flying into a Skinnygirl rage.
Naturally, a Bethenny source blames the women. “There were three women who were standing and blocking the view after being told multiple times by security to sit down, people were frustrated. It was a crush . . . and very hot. People were jockeying for a view. It looked like this woman, who vehemently refused to move, needed some cooling off . . . so Bethenny tossed some water on her.”
Unfortunately Bethenny also managed to douse the wife of a Goldman Sachs investment banking honcho in the process. She was less than impressed after being served a little Skinnygirl.
Denying that she was throwing fits and turning into Ramona Singer drinks, Bethenny tweeted:
“Maybe I misunderstood the meaning of the band name? COLD PLAY?” she added. Apparently Bethenny spent the majority of the concert Snapchatting it, which is probably the real reason she wanted those women to move – so her iPhone view was obstructed (Cause it’s not like Bethenny can do ANYTHING without drawing constant attention to it!).
An insider insists to Us Weekly that Bethenny was only acting on behalf of her celebrity friends, because the women were “very disruptive” and “causing a scene.” Plus the situation “escalated” when security approached them – on their own volition to move – so finally Bethenny stepped in to take control. The source notes that the women were escorted out yet Bethenny remained to watch the show. [side-eye]
Hilariously Bethenny has a defender in Kelly Bensimon, who was also in attendance, and observed, “Bethenny seemed to be in a great mood.”

“I was shocked to read the story because I didn’t see any of this,” Kelly continued. “It just makes me sad that so much drama was created and nobody is promoting the Wounded Warriors. That’s why we were there, to support them.”
When Kelly is defending your behavior…
TELL US – DO YOU THINK BETHENNY THREW A FIT AND A DRINK? OR DID THE WOMEN DESERVE TO BE DOUSED?
