Kelly Bensimon wants people to see ‘The Real Kelly’

She battled with Bethenny Frankel and got beat up in the blogs, but Kelly Bensimon, the season’s new girl on The Real Housewives of New York City, says she’d do it again — and hopes to come back for another season.
“It was a really, really fun process,” she said during a recent phone interview. “For next season, I want people to see the real Kelly.” So far, “another season of New York is not locked for anybody yet,” she explains, but “I would love to be a part of the brand.”
Bensimon says joining the already-established cast in the show’s second season was like diving into a “shark tank,” and blames her nerves for causing her to act like someone she’s not. “I was so guarded, I came across as not being me,” she said. “Everyone I know was like, ‘That’s not you! That’s the not the fun Kelly who’s always on Kelly time!’ I didn’t know these women. I was treading in murky waters and I didn’t know how to navigate.”
Bensimon insists her cat fight with Bethenny was out of character. “I’ve never had an exchange like that with anyone in my entire life,” she says. “I was really thrown off.”
Still, she believes that Bethenny knew exactly what she was doing. “She got a ton of airtime and got a ton of press,” Bensimon says. “Why would she fight with the new girl if she didn’t want air time and press?”
