  Speaker 3: Andrews showed Brilliant Idiots true story, I was on her
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: show back in the day when we were first launching

• 0:55
  Speaker 3: brilliant idiot. And immediately the light bulb went off. So
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: thank you for that inspiration, Bethany. But Donkey of the
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Day does not discriminate. See if you was listening to
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: Jess with the Mess earlier and you heard Jess tell
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: a story about the great Kelly Rowland, Jess, can you
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: tell the people what happened with the Godiva Chocolate Goddess
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Kelly Roland?
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: So she was invited to co host the Today Show,
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: and when she got there, she saw that she did
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: not like her green room accommodations and she asked to
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: be moved to a larger green room and they denied
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: her that access because j Lo was accompanying the main
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: green room.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, well, of course a lot of people had
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: opinions about this situation, and Bethany Frankel was one of them.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: There's a page six headline that says, Bethany Frankel slams
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: Kelly Rowland for Diva expectations over Today's show dressing rooms.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Can we listen to what Bethany had to say? Right?
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: Kelly Roland walked off the set of the Today Show
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: because the dressing room wasn't up to park. She was
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: co hosting with Coda, and it wasn't it. I've co
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: hosted with Hoda and I've arrived there and the makeup
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: area that you touch up in is like grab a
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: croissant and some plastic and great for the best, and
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: it's just not what that's about. And it's an honor
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: to be there and to sit down with Hoda, and
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: that was not the moment for diva expectations.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Bethany stop cut it out, Bethany, I would not expect
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: that take from you, because you are the same person
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: who had your lawyer send Bravo a litigation hold letter
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: that alleged the company engaged in grow tests and depraved
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: the mistreatment of its on air talent. Bethany also accused
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Bravo's parent company applying talent with alcohol while depriving them
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: of food and sleep, as well as denying mental health treatment.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: The moral of the story is Bethany doesn't like to
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: see people mistreating talent.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Bethany doesn't like to see people taking.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Advantage of talent.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: So, Bethany, if a talent like Kelly Roland felt like
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: they was being mistreated and decided, you know, she was
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: being mistreated to the point she should walk away, who
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: are you to tell her she's acting like a diva? Okay,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: we all know you have to teach people how to
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: treat you. So if today's show wasn't treating Kelly the
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: way she wanted to be treated, who are we to
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: tell Kelly.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Rowland suck it up?
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: But a couple.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: No, it is necessary and even vital to set stanzas
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: for your life. I don't have a problem with Kelly
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: having boundaries. I don't have a problem with Kelly Rowland
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: or any talent walking away from.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: A situation if they aren't being treated correctly.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: All of these production companies, networks, TV shows, y'all got
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: life fed up in twenty twenty four. If you ask
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: these people to take time out of their lives to
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: come co host your programs, treat them with respect. In business,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: they say, the customer is always right. Well so is
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: the damn talent when it comes to situations like this.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: If Kelly Rowland felt if Kelly Rowland felt like they
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: weren't felt like she wasn't being treated with the respect
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: she deserves.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: She has every right to walk away.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Stop acting like y'all doing talent a favor by putting
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: them on your shows, and realize nowadays talent is doing
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: you a favor because most talents don't need these looks
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four. Okay, you need them to garn
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: her attention for your programs, and a lot of these
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: cases not the other way around. Okay, set boundaries, y'all.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: All right, everybody out there, don't be afraid to set
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: boundaries like the good sister nature to Walp Glover, says,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: set boundaries find peace. What Kelly Rowland did brought her
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: extreme peace, and that's what setting boundaries is all about.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: love ourselves even when we risk disappointing others.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry if to today's show is Bethany Frankel.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: We're disappointed that Kelly Rowland chose to do what was
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: best for her and her mental and emotional health, but
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: loving yourself will always trump disappointing others. Bethany Frankel, you
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: should be ashamed. Don't call yourself standing up for talent
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: at Bravo, but then tell someone else they should stand
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: down and.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Deal with it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Please get beth to me, Frankel, the sweet sounds of
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: the Hamilton.
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: You, Oh the day, Oh the day. You you know me.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: It don't take me much to leave because I don't
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: want to be there to begin with.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: Well, you should have gave her the remy my one.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: Are you let get Franklins?
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: You stupid mother? Are you dumb?
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: I saw the video, I saw what she did when
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: she took the online to respond to that.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I't know you were so close to her.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't know that.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: I didn't know.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I think I thought that was that was
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: crazy to go online like that. But did y'all y'all
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: see my story. She actually looked like Fred Gwinn. Y'all
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: know that is just from the original pet Cemetery, the
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: guy who plays Frankenstin.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: She favors him.
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: I do wonder if that like it's a granddaughter or
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: something like that.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: But yeah, she looked like me.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: But yeah, she deserved to day.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: I didn't like that, especially being that you know, she
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: has sent legal letters to Bravo and accused them of
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: mistreating talent. If you're gonna stand up for talent in
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: one place, you got to stand up for talent all
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: across the board.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well thank you for that.
