It will always be difficult to top the iconic reality TV moments that we have had the pleasure to watch from Kelly Bensimon‘s three seasons on Real Housewives of New York. Her “I’m up here, you’re down here” statement to Bethenny Frankel with the accompanying hand gestures was reality TV gold. And I will never forget when she started randomly screaming about Al Sharpton and gummy bears during those infamous Scary Island episodes.
Aside from RHONY specifically, it has been hard to find reality TV scenes that top those in the most general sense. So I am always down for Kelly to make a return to RHONY – not that I have any power or influence over the casting process at Bravo. Since I have no way of getting in touch with Kelly Bensimon myself, I am happy that someone else has asked her about making a return to the reality series.

Kelly was asked about the possibility of a RHONY return during an interview with Fox News. She responded with, “Everyone always asks me if I would do it again and I never say no just because I always tell my kids never say never because you don’t want to, you know, put yourself out of the game.” So I guess this means that she was not actually asked, but she would be open to joining?
Kelly just had to take a dig at the production of RHONY when she explained her stipulations for being on the show: “I just would have to expect more from the producers, I would want them to want their talent to be genuine and authentic.” This is Kelly’s way of blaming the editing for the previous portrayal of her own actions. I don’t think it’s fair to define someone by the worst thing they’ve ever done or their most embarrassing moment, but I still don’t feel that it is justified for reality stars to blame production for looking bad on TV.

And then Kelly mentioned that she is not down to share her private life on television…. which is the entire purpose of being on a TV show about people’s personal lives. Kelly said, “I won’t share my life with people that I don’t know and that I don’t trust… and that’s why I didn’t show my life. I was just like okay I’ll hang out with these girls and I’m going to go home.” Well, this statement is not exactly something that is going to jump out at anyone in charge of casting women for an upcoming season of RHONY.
If I’m keeping it real, I doubt that Kelly would ever be back as a full-time cast member. She’s not willing to share much and she seems like someone who would make production pretty difficult. I am holding out hope for some cameo appearances though.
