Andy Cohen Criticizes TikTok "Margarita Lady" After New Year's Show

Many outlets read the jab as a reference to Bethenny Frankel, with her representative declining to comment.

Overview

  • On the Jan. 5 episode of SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live, Cohen said of TikTok commentary, "Boy, that margarita lady. Oh my god, it's suffocating."
  • The remarks came as he recapped reaction to his CNN New Year's Eve broadcast co-hosted with Anderson Cooper.
  • Guest John Hill said the subject posts "like 14 [videos] a day" and noted he has her blocked, while Cohen said he doesn't see her on Instagram.
  • Cohen did not name anyone, but coverage linked the phrase to Bethenny Frankel, widely associated with her Skinnygirl margarita brand sale in 2011.
  • Reports placed the quip in the context of Frankel's 2023 "reality reckoning" critiques of reality TV, and Page Six reported her representative declined to comment.
