Sonja Morgan Aims to "Commercialize" Herself on The Real Housewives of New York City

Give Sonja Morgan points for honesty.

When asked by Entertainment Weekly why she's appearing on The Real Housewives of New York City (Morgan debuts tonight), the socialite replied:

"I’m on the show to have a good time and commercialize myself... I’ve been writing my screenplay since the minute my divorce started. It’s very sexy, sort of like a Candace Bushnell society novel."

Somewhere in a meeting with her agent, ignoring her children Kate Gosselin is shaking her head and wondering why a single mother on a reality show isn't using that platform to exploit her kids for sympathy, money and attention.
