While Jill Zarin has on many occasions been referred to as a “blogger’s dream” due to her many faux pas this season – think babygate, amazongate etc. Well I’m here to debunk that notion, as her co-star Kelly Bensimon is the REAL blogger’s dream.
The Real Housewives of New York City star, who might or might not be in dire need of anti-psychotic meds, is simply the gift that keeps on giving. For starters, the above picture of Kelly was taken just this week on July 7th as she attempted to hail a cab in the streets of NYC. As if the above photo as well as more nutty photos of her from the hail a cab event weren’t good enough to make a story, Kelly then proceeded to write some more nonsensical rants on her twitter page, that is of course, when she’s not busy linking non flattering articles and videos of herself to her followers.
“enjoy what the press writes. everyone needs content, let them use my tweets, youtube.com videos whatever they need. its content,” is perhaps the only tweet Kelly wrote that actually made sense. And thank you Kelly for all the crazy content you give.
It all started when some sites and blogs started writing about her insane starvation diet. You know the one she shared with Star magazine that has her eating 2 oranges for breakfast, brown rice, broccoli and tofu for lunch, and salad with shrimp for dinner, six days a week. Well she received a lot of criticism, deservedly so, for her starvation diet, which is even more unhealthy when you add in the fact that this woman runs in NYC traffic 6 – 7 times a week.
Kelly re-affirmed that she does indeed eat that diet via twitter but denied the diet is 700 calories a day as claimed by many blogs. She tweeted, “the kkb diet is am: two oranges, lunch: veggies, brown rice, and tofu with any sauce, dinner: 2 chicken breasts/salad. 7 day: off,” later adding, “texaminer. I said it was 700 calories which is humanly in possible. Sorry examiner, gotta call u out.” I’m guessing she meant to add a ‘never’ in front of said, and the examiner is a site the publishes blogs, one of which criticized her diet.
Well let’s examine the KKB diet then shall we. The calorie count comes directly from WebMD’s food calorie counter.
Breakfast – 2 oranges: 124 Calories (Medium sized orange at 62 cals per orange)
Lunch – Brown rice, tofu and broccoli: 356 Calories (1 cup Brown rice – 216 cals, 1 cup brocolli – 52 cals, 1/2 cup tofu – 88 cals)
Dinner – Salad with shrimp: 192 Calories (1.5 cup Salad with shrimp with no dressing – 106 cals, dressing – Italian, 2 Tbs – 86 cals)
Total: 672 Calories
So Kelly Bensimon eats a diet of 672 calories a day, assuming she uses 2 tablespoons of salad dressing instead of one. The 700 calories the other blogs dubbed her diet is apparently generous. “I run eveyday for 2miles and do 30 lunges on each leg,” tweeted Kelly. A 42-year-old woman who runs two miles seven days a week is only taking in 672 calories a day folks! Eating disorder anyone?
The nuttyness doesn’t end with the diet. Kelly also stated she would only return for a 4th season of the NYC Housewives “if they upgrade the cast to REAL New York A-list women.”
Below are more interesting tweets by Kelly:
“bullying doesnt discriminate. its ugly and pointless.”
“i wish they’d show the real me. kids, dogs, horses, creativity,charity,and hard work doesn”t sell. people like fighting.”
“crazy sells. noone likes the nice girl. reality tv is meant to entertain. talk shows teach/preach.”
“PLAYBOY had an outreach of 239 million. i want to do it again at 50.”
“reality tv should be about REAL people, not fabricated reality stars. its a bad example for women. i want people to aspire to greatness”
These my folks, are the worlds of a self proclaimed Colombia Columbia graduate. Really nothing else to add at this point but I do have to ask the question, does Kelly have “people” working for her? You know like a publicist or manager of some sort to advise her against making an asinine anti bullying PSA video, or tell her not to share a 700 calories a day diet with millions of people. Perhaps its time for her loved ones to step in and start feeding her, while also taking away her internet twitter access.
Bethenny Frankel also made a funny when she said this week that “The whole of NBC Universal doesn’t have enough money for me to hang out with Jill and Kelly right now.” Can you blame her? NBC Universal owns the Bravo network by the way.
TELL US – WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON KELLY’S DIET? DO YOU THINK SHE HAS AN EATING DISORDER?
CLICK HERE FOR MORE PHOTOS OF KELLY ROAMING THE STREETS OF NYC -
This woman looks like Iggy Pop! seriously! who would want to look like her….oh wait perhaps Iggy!
Her diet is pathetic! You need to eat more than that.
What if this crazy Kelly is her TV personality?
Yeah I doubt it, I was just wondering…
Whats up with the third pic ?? see how her vein is literally popping out of her forehead ??
Must be jellybean overload !!!!!! Or is that the line that connects brain to mouth ??? In either case , its creepy just like her…
This chick is in need of a seriass overhaul, physically and mentality..and to think …she thinks its all so cute !!!!
Guess I’ll have to add her to my prayer list ??
Went shopping after work late last nite…. BIG BUMMER…Our local Wally World doesnt carry /stock Starburst Jelly beans…!!! Here comes with drawals…!!!
Pray for me !!!!!!!!!!!!
Diva :>)
She’s gross. She always looks like she need to take a shower! ppfffft.
yuck. but she’s hysterically crazy.
I wonder how long before someone sues her for her unhealthy diet tips. I mean she probably really should delete that u-tube video until she gets clearance from an MD re: her diet. If someone takes her advice and becomes ill, she is the one telling them to do it and that it is HEALTHY. I feel for her kids, she puts so much emphasis on physical looks instead of inner beauty that if her kids don’t fit her idea of beauty, the God help them.
well… it could explain a lot if that’s all she’s really eating.. her brain (whatever functioned) simply has starved to death due to lack of nutrients.. but then the bio-physiology student in me is coming out and going no! not possible! if she continues she’ll end up a vegetable because of lack of potassium that will affect her heart and brain, calcium for bones, and other vital nutrients in her diet. that and lack of fat won’t allow her brain to function oh yeah you need a brain to function… i really hope that this is some crazy cleanse diet w/ her one day of garbage food..
can we calculate how many calories is in 2 lbs of gummy worms? i think that’s the only way on earth she’s getting any energy through her system to move. geeze. i think i’ll keep eating my bowl of oatmeal w/ blueberries in the a.m. and follow the zone and tosca reno’s clean eating plan.
soo.. my final question is.. can we use kelly as an anti-eating disorder PSA?!
OMG! This woman is so freakin scary looking…I cannot stop laughing at her pictures…this bag of bones….hopefully with that calorie intake she will just disintegrate…
The only people working for Kelly are the voices in her head…they speak her language, which I have NO idea what that is,…those poor girls they must be so embarrassed, confused, etc…
So Kelly will only return is they upgrade to real NY A List women…it’s so funny to think if they do that…then Kelly will no longer be on the show…
Yea Columbia my A$$!…perhaps before the major drug intake…
well.. i often wonder.. columbia.. or colombia? one little letter.. one BIG difference…
@8: Yes…lol
We can tell the youths of the world that this is NOT what you inspire to look like or be….A brain is a terrible thing to waste….just look at Kelly…
quick we should load a video up…
And ding dong Andy Cohen defended Kelly by stating she is really healthy, he needs to read the calories. He is a moron and she is a moron. Andy gives gay men a bad name. And kelly gives crazy people a bad name.
Kelly,Kelly,Kelly, You really need to give yourself a” time out” from Twitter.
What do I think of Kelly’s Diet? ..Well I think it sucks!
Do I think she has an eating disorder?..Umm I don’t care.
I am wondering who is taking those pictures
DOES ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THE VEIN THAt IS POPPING OUT OF HER FOREHEAD?
That lady needs help. What does her ex-husband think? Someone needs to do some digging.
all of these photos could be mental health posters.
bunny,
yea she’s really healthy like he’s really straight…NOT
HHMMM…did some research on bulging veins…
Short and to the point from an article I read….
****bulging veins are caused by too much exercise without a proper diet, experts say ***
Well dang..go figure….should we let kookoo in on this….
diva
Ok, so she takes 10 or 12 adderall daily and drinks 3 pots of coffee. That would explain the psychosis.
Addressing the bulging veins-I’m fat and where my veins cross muscle they bulge. I lift weights and I think that is why. Professional bodybuilders dehydrate oh purpose to show definition and right before they go onstage they consume massive amounts of sugar to make their pulse go sky high and the veins really pop.
She looks of someone who is desperately trying to hold on to her youth. Even if her youth was that of a boy. Pre-op.
Remember she also likes to drink beer and Patrone. Beer has LOTS of calories; not sure about the Patrone.
Honestly, if anyone is DUMB enough to actually follow this diet thinking it’s healthy then caveat emptor! You deserve what you get. I’m tired of people blaming their behavior on what celebs do.
Gotta love that quote about only returning if there are “A-list” NY women.
Well, Kelly it was nice “ahem” knowin’ ya!
@22 DE-
Nonsense! She only eats unprocessed foods and doesn’t drink alcohol!
/just ignore the gummi-bears, jellybeans, beer and tequila.
@23 abarts
Also, what is it with the frilly dresses likes she’s a teenager.
Like, what is like, up with that??
I’m no health expert but shouldn’t someone her height faint if they only eat 700 calories a day and workout that much?
She’s wrong about bullies. Bullies do discriminate. They only pick on those they knew won’t rip them a new one. And when they make the mistake of picking on a sheep in wolf’s clothing, they run away…ie Bethenny vs Omarosa lol
I dont believe thats her diet. She didnt add the calorie count for all the candy she eats. I think she WANTS us to think that is her diet. No calorie count for her drinking wings etc. I think she is obsessed with dieting because it shows on her body.
Her body is over worked to the point that she looks like a man. She has no hips and looks like she is sporting a penis..
Hey.. Im just saying..
IJS, good point about the candy. That is at least another 300-500 (empty) calories a day if what we have seen on the show is typical.
That dress is way too young for her.
She definitely has issues. She dresses like a teenager (I risk insulting the teenagers of this world), acts like a teenager and I think she is trying to attain the figure of a teenager (boy).
I love how you can map out her facial venous structure.
DE, just saw your post. Sorry to repeat. You know what they say about great minds… Lol!
If her docs ever had trouble getting an IV line into her arm, they could just put one in her forehead.
This girl is just a mess. These pictures are a riot. Thankyou Reality Tea for these little morsels that make my day so much more enjoyable. I look forward to seeing what you’ve dug up.
Kelly has no idea that everyone is laughing at every move she makes. That is truly someone who is out of touch with reality. We need to actually find someone in her life(family, co-worker, nanny, neighber) anyone who can give us more insight to why she is this way. I went through a period in my twenties where I hardly ate anything & it does affect your brain, mainly you’re in a fog. You don’t become nuts or psychotic so I wouldn’t blame her diet on this behavior. It’s more of a symptom of her psychosis.
I really wish that last picture wasn’t so big! It scared the shit outta me when I scrolled down! LMAO In that picture she reminds me that I promised my son I’d make fried chicken for dinner tonight…..So….thanks Kelly!
#29 Pixie
LOL!
And to further rant on Kelly..
Comb of tangled MOP of yours!
I’m a woman in my *ahem*…forties and I also cling to my long-ish hair. However, I DO use a comb and brush and I’m not forever twiddling with it. Such as pulling most of it forward and then fighting the front sides to go back and behind.
Kelly, it’s losing battle, take my word for it.
Moppy hair does not a teenager make
I think this is what she wants us to think her diet is to explain her body, while her real diet probably consists of jelly beans and meth. Meth would explain the skinny and the psychosis even better than an eating disorder.
Egads!! I’ve figured it out!! That bump below and inbetween her wonky fake breasticles is what’s left of her brain attempting to migrate toward her stomach to get it’s claim of her insufficient calorie intake!! Or snag an errant gummy bear!!
I think it’s just another example of the crazy when she harps on others for their choices (anyone remember her harassing Sonya after her lip in the Lost Footage??) and then does something that is not very “health-full.”
What a lunatic!!! I hope her children know to take everything she says with a grain (or bucket) of salt!
Very true what you all have been saying, obviously a serious lack of nutrition is affecting her mental stability. Someone get her a nutritionist STAT!
So, I just checked out Kelly’s twitter and here is her Bio:
Bio Official Kelly Killoren Bensimon- Mom,Model,Author,Equestrian, Editor,Designer,The Real Houswives of New York,and considered a New York City major tastemaker.
I googled “tastemaker” and found the following definition:
Tastemaker – - One that determines or strongly influences current trends or styles, as in fashion or the arts.
Hmmm . . . I believe her Bio should have said “self proclaimed” tastemaker. Am I wrong or does anyone out there believe that Kelly has influence over trends or styles in fashion?
Kelly doesn’t eat enough. Maybe that what made her crazy?
I believe that’s her real diet. I think most models and actresses eat this way, most never admit it. Even Bethenny’s SkinnyGirl diet in the Naturally Thin book was just as starvation nation, but hers included alcohol.
The Patron thing always sounded like a shill. Remember on the yacht Sonja called her out on making them do shots but then never actually taking one so the rest got drunk?
Her diet is anything but healthy. In Kelly-world, the diet is “healthful,” therefore healthy, so it MUST be true! Ok then, moving right along…
These pictures are laughable at best! While all so silly, the 4th one after the jump is my crazy-favorite!! All I can think is…giddy-up, giddy-up..rawhide!! (song?) lol
@37 Amy,
“tastemaker” for real!?!…that’s right up there with saying she’ll only return to the series “if they upgrade the cast to REAL New York A-list women.”….GTF out of here!! Biiiyeeeee Kelly!! Good riddance!
Well, it could definitley explain her weird mood swings…when you don’t get enough fat in your diet, it can cause mental instability…the brain needs fat to function properly.
And not fat from gummi bears in case she thinks that’s a food group.
It’s why so many actresses and models seem like they’re crazy…their brains are dying from lack of nutrition.
Hi Everyone,
Here’s my take on Kelly. She is insanely jealous of Bethenny and does things just to belittle the things that Bethenny is doing. Example, Bethenny is a so called expert on diet which is why Kelly is now talking about diets. Bethenny is a cook,so all of a sudden Kelly begins cooking. It is in her twitters. On RHoNY she couldn’t even cook a decent pancake but now she is twittering pictures of her making cupcakes and pies?!!!!Bethenny poses naked for PETA so Kelly goes and poses naked for playboy. I don’t believe that she it trying to be like Bethenny I believe she does it just to show people that anybody can do what Bethenny is doing which, the big difference is that this is what Bethenny loves to do and is great at doing it. Kelly wants a life of cartwheels and rainbows but can’t get out of Bethenny’s life long enough to enjoy it. If she stayed in her own world I do believe she would be happier. She can twitter it a million times but she is not happy. As for St. Barts I believe she went crazy with the candy just because she refused to eat anything that Bethenny cooked and that night Bethenny did all of the cooking. She was starving, I don’t know about yall but I get mean and crazy when I’m hungry!!!!!!
Kelly-babe:
You may want to think about upping your B vitamins.
The B’s strengthen your central nervous system…
Whole grains, bananas, beans, lentils, Marmite & Vegemite.
Friends from OZ and NZ would spread Marmite/Vegemite (depending on the country) on toast.
Take care,
Scarlette Begonia
I agree with michelle except she forgot that she feels she is better then everyone and that makes her the lowest form of humanity, yes they need to get rid of her
Hi there Scarlette!!
LOL @your post! Not only does diet affect your overall health but your hair too. (nails also)
Her hair looks dry and lacking nutrients..go figure.
I remember a show when I was young, I think it was “Dukes of Hazard,” and she reminds me of the woman that played….??? For the life of me, I can’t remember..DAISEY??
Anyway..Same bad hair. lol
Now we know why she eats so much candy. Her body is screaming for calories. Now her’s a HUGE issue with her “Diet” she’s missing HUGE quanities of nutrition that the body and mind need to function properly. Not a single mention of any dairy at all so that means she’s going to have Ostio (SP?) soon. Will be interesting to see if she can walk without breaking something by the time she’s 60 due to brittle bones.
Hey Eva!
I so agree with you and @47 Peary85 – she looks like she’s seriously lacking nutrition.
imo, this is the main reason why she falls apart emotionally and has wild mood swings.
Scarlette Begonia
I am almost 49 and have long hair down past my hiney. When I was in the hospital two years ago, my hair was starting to fall out from malnutrition. My body had started to eat itself and wouldn’t process any nutrients in the manner it is supposed to. My veins bulged as in Kelly’s forehead, my skin was incredibly dry and leathery looking (only I am white white white) and my hair was horrible. My doctor put me on IV nutrients and a fat solution to try to force nutrients into my body. I had trouble thinking and speaking because my blood carried little oxygen to my brain. I spent a month in ICU and 4 months recuperating at home. I had to have a feeding tube to try to force nutrients directly into my digestive track. Kelly is going to start to deteriorate if this truly is her diet. A woman of her height is NOT going to be able to function for long at this rate. Her hair and skin are already showing the affects of poor nutrition, and well, I believe that we have evidence of her mental capacity deteriorating, as well. It is a scarey road to walk and I would hope that her family is watching her closely. If this is indeed her only intake of nutrients, I hope and pray that her children do not take after her and are monitored by a healthcare professional and their Father to make certain their nutritional needs are met.
@49 – Joan
I’m glad to hear your on the rebound.
But please realize that hair is no longer ‘alive’ once it leaves the blood source or follicle. It’s just dead, waste material at that point.
/wish I had more waste material. and not in my nose and ears.
