Bethenny Frankel Fires Expletive Rant Over Bad Bunny Backlash

Bethenny Frankel goes on another rant after a massive reaction to her controversial video!

The media personality could not wait to clapback at those who took the content of her critiquing Bad Bunny’s show, emphasizing that speaking one’s mind without fear should be normalized.

Bethenny Frankel has always maintained a very vocal approach to issues, and the Super Bowl halftime show was not spared as she asked questions pertaining to the true essence of the platform.

The former reality star did not spare a minute out of the shower before she jumped into the agenda of the day, which involved how her fans reacted to her reservations about Bad Bunny’s performance.

She began by saying that the errors made about Puerto Rico in her initial video could have been corrected by her fans, instead of them using that avenue to attack her.

Frankel condemned the faux outrage often directed towards anyone with a different opinion by Americans, wondering why healthy dialogue is never an option.

She did not stop there; the star also wondered why it is often very controversial when one refuses to fit into the box of partisan politics, emphasizing that life is not a zero-sum game.

Frankel also crowned herself the queen of honest opinions, claiming that only a few people are not afraid of getting canceled for their perspectives.

She also informed fans that the celebrities who often speak publicly do not necessarily believe in what they share because they are all texting her on the side, stating the opposite. 

Frankel emphasized that she keeps things real and whenever she speaks, it is coming from a place of consistent thought, and if anyone feels differently, they can educate her, discuss with her, and even correct her.

She then took her concerns mainstream, insisting that she is not the only one who could use a dialogue; the whole country should consider getting one too, due to its teeming population and differing perspectives.

The internet personality signed off in the video with a warning that she cannot be bullied, and if anyone comes for her, it would not be an easy takedown. In her words:

“I’m not tolerating this anymore. You wanna go? Let’s f-cking go. You’re not gonna take me down, but I would prefer to have a conversation. You’re welcome.” Frankel wrote on the footage, “This is who I am. Unfollow me or cancel me.”

The 55-year-old had hopped on Instagram a few days after the Super Bowl to upload a now-deleted video where she asked if entertainment vehicles like the Grammys, Emmys, Oscars, and the Super Bowl could be used to convey political messages.

As reported by Page Six, while she understands that some sensitive matters like COVID, natural disasters, and other tragedies can be dissected on such big platforms, she noted that a line must be drawn on issues.

She also compared Bad Bunny’s performance to Dave Chappelle’s controversial transphobic views in 2021 during one of his shows, and Billie Eilish’s anti-ICE in her Grammys 2026 acceptance speech.

Frankel then deleted the video and uploaded a clip of her praising the Puerto Rican rapper for using her rights to speak up.

Frankel’s episodes with halftime shows at the Super Bowl did not just start. Last year, The Blast shared that she had a short story time on her Instagram account, filling her fans in on a bathroom situation where a broken knob left her locked in the building.

Frankel revealed that she sought help on social media to notify her colleagues at the watch party about her predicament, as they had not all replied to her texts. The star added that she had screamed for help for minutes now, but nothing has changed.

Help finally came, although viewers on her Instagram story could see how tricky the situation was due to the inability of the person outside to get into the building.

She finally escaped the building (though not sharing how) and spent the rest of the night dancing to Kendrick Lamar’s iconic performance. Frankel later explained that her quest to take the perfect mirror selfie of her game day outfit left her locked in the bathroom.
