What a difference a year makes! In 2009, Jon Gosselin was living the fabulous life, commanding up to $12,000/pop for appearances and even sailing St. Tropez with Christian Audigier on his private yacht. Fast forward to the end of '10, when Gosselin can't even do a lap of the Taco Bell drive-thru without a side of snickers and snark.
Just when you thought the Jersey Shore gang and all those fake housewives made you finally forget all about The Gosselins, Jonny G finds a way to grab headlines again. Hailey Glassman is not about to let her 15 minutes run out without a fight; she's back in the news, dragging ex-boyfriend Jon Gosselin's already soiled name through the mud.
Jon Gosselin is apparently serious this time, as he's taken a big step forward in his new relationship: bringing girlfriend Ellen Ross home to meet his eight kids. "She is the first love interest to be introduced to his children," a source told Us Weekly.
This has been a rough week for Kate Gosselin. First she got booted off Dancing With the Stars, then Life & Style revealed that Kate hasn't had sex for over a year. Here, a few suggestions for how Kate Gosselin can make some changes.
Last Friday, Kate Major confirmed Hailey Glassman's claim that Jon Gosselin has a small package. In an interview with Life & Style magazine, Kate said, "I'm surprised he's so 'cocky' because down there he's definitely not." Supposedly, the former rivals are now pals, having laughed together over Jon's genital shortcomings. We're not convinced that Hailey and Kate 2.0 are the winners here. Jon might be "hung like a 9-year-old boy," as Hailey so eloquently put it, but she and Ms. Major were the ones who took that three-inch wonder for a ride. Before you trash-talk a former flame, remember that the people you've dated reflects on you and your ability to pick a partner. That being said, here are our tips for (not) dissing your ex:
Against all odds, some members of the media are still interested in what Jon Gosselin's ex-girlfriend Hailey Glassman has to say. In an interview with Steppin' Out, she calls Jon a "vicious and evil textbook sociopath," who is "hung like a nine-year-old boy." This might be funny if we weren't so sick of hearing about Jon and grossed out when forced to imagine his naughty bits.
Jon Gosselin's New Year's resolution must have been out with the old, in with the new, because the father of eight spent New Year's with a 23-year-old brunette named Morgan rather than ex Hailey Glassman.
Oh, Jon. We thought we were done reading news items containing the Gosselin family name. Then you accused ex-girlfriend Hailey Glassman of trashing your apartment. On Christmas. Sigh. When we first read about the incident, we knew only that your apartment had been ransacked—with some items taken and others destroyed—and that there had been a note, calling you a cheater and signed by Hailey Glassman, stuck to the bedroom dresser with a butcher knife. Reading the statement from your lawyer, we even pitied you:
Jon and Kate Gosselin plan to spend Christmas together with their eight kids, three ex-lovers, two dogs, one marriage rent asunder, and a partridge in a pear tree.
In a recent US magazine interview, Jon Gosselin's girlfriend Hailey Glassman—who is now describing herself as semi-single—shows signs that she is tiring of the relationship altogether, even as she confirms that Jon will be spending Thanksgiving with her family, not his own.
Things are getting truly surreal. Last night, Jon Gosselin sat down with Rabbi Shmuley Boteach at the West Side Synagogue in New York City to discuss "The Ethical Challenges and Moral Responsibility of Celebrity." Wowzers, what an apt panelist. But could this really be more than damage control for the recent "mantrum" accusations thrown out by girlfriend Hailey Glassman? In this forum, open to the public, Jon spoke about his 'intoxication with celebrity,' admitted to having lost his 'moral compass,' expressed a desire to seek forgiveness from Kate, and touched on his troubled relationship with Hailey.
