Bethenny Frankel was a cover girl for Forbes magazine when it was reported that her Skinnygirl cocktail mix sold for $120 million. The Huffington Post did some research and unveiled that The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission quarterly report form shows Fortune Brands, Inc. acquired Skinnygirl ready-to-drink cocktail business for $8.1 million.

Frankely, it's not Bethenny's fault that Forbes flubbed on her financial earnings and put her in the 'powerful celebrity' spotlight, but Bethenny didn't exactly tell them their numbers were way off either. Now Forbes wants to have a little chat with her.

"We're going to review all the information thoroughly and talk to Ms. Frankel before taking any steps. If there are any inaccuracies, we'll correct them. If clarification is required, we'll do so."

Bethenny had the Forbes cover on her website but since news broke about the $100 screw up, she has taken it down. Although Bethenny never confirmed the amount, apparently she didn't deny it either!

Ramona Singer put the $120 million earnings stat on blast back in May while promoting her own alcohol beverage. Ramona said Bethenny likes to exaggerate and the earnings number was just a rumor. Here's Ramona's breakdown of the Skinnygirl sale...

“I was thinking before that figure came out she got about $30 million total. And divided that between her and her partners David, and usually they do a pay out, they don't give you the money up front, they pay you out over time."
