Talk show host Bethenny Frankel let her feet do the talking on Thursday as she shared a faux tattoo on the soles of her feet done in Miley Cyrus style.

The 42-year-old daytime talk show had the name Rick in black ink on the bottom of her right foot and Springfield with a dollar sign covering most of her left foot in a nod to the Australian singer.

Bethenny held the bottom of her feet up much in the same way 20-year-old Miley in September shared her new 'Rolling $tone' tattoo on the soles of her feet to celebrate landing on the cover of the music magazine.

'Guys, I did get a tattoo,' Bethenny wrote in a posting along with the photo to her more than one million followers on Twitter.

The image of Bethenny's tattooed feet was from her show on Thursday in which she spoke with rapper Vanilla Ice about a recent diss by Miley.

Miley in her Rolling Stone interview said she was worried that 19-year-old pop star Justin Bieber would ruin his career with his childish antics and could end up 'where people think he's Vanilla Ice.'

Vanilla Ice told Bethenny that he agreed with Miley and said she also should heed her own advice.

The rapper also shared a photo on Twitter last month showing the soles of his feet with a faux 'MILEY CYRU$' tattoo.

The foot tattoo with the name of 64-year-old Springfield, best known for his 1981 hit Jessie's Girl, comes as Bethenny continues struggling to find traction for her show.

The former star of The Real Housewives of New York City ranks a lagging thirteenth in the daytime talk show ratings, according to a report on Thursday in RadarOnline.

The show's ratings dropped 11 percent from two weeks ago while Queen Latifah's chat show has swept the ratings for the third straight week.

An industry source told RadarOnline.com that Bethenny must improve her ratings during the upcoming November sweeps period in order to have the show renewed for a second season.

It doesn't help that she openly flirts with every man that comes on her show, even if they're married.

i think her ex husband is a better parent to her child than she is. his main focus is bryn, her main focus is getting ratings on her show.

she needs to go away, she has enough money to never be seen from or heard from again and that applies to to the Kardashians too!

I read on another site Bethanny can not find the right following. She is too edgy for the older crowd and "too old" for the 20-30 yr/olds, which I guess makes sense. I use to like her, now not so much.

Since when has a black felt tip pen been called a fake tattoo.

she pretty much trashed this herself with her shrill and whining behavior on her previous shows and in the press. she went from from being like a girlfriend you'd like to hang out with to one that you dread being around.
