Jon & Kate Plus 8
Jon Gosselin is willing to exploit his children again. After all, he needs the cash.
Jon and Kate have managed to keep us occupied during the long, dull hours with their 8,000 tabloid stories. Still, with all the trash that's out there, we've been experiencing something akin to compassion fatigue. Though it's definitely closer to agitation fatigue. So the news that Jon & Kate Plus 8 might be returning to the airwaves? Disturbing.
The New York Daily News reports that Jon and Kate are in talks to resume their dead-in-the-water reality TV show. Jon had originally filed a cease-and-desist letter against TLC in order to stop production on the show, claiming that the network was … Read More
Which upsets Jon more? Here's what he says.
The divorce has been granted, and according to Kate's lawyer, Mark Momjian, who spoke exclusively to HollywoodLife.com, she will get the house in Wernersville, Pa., and will get primary custody of their eight children. What else?
She owes him nothing, and Jon? Oh, he'll be paying out a monthly check to Kate rumored to be in the five figures. OUCH!
To say that, "Kate is excited about the prospect of restructuring her life and looks forward to her future" is the understatement of the year.
How's Jon holding up? Well, he's afraid, very afraid. Head on over to HollywoodLife.com … Read More
Genuine or not, at least Jon's mea culpa is a start...
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.
While it is not clear … Read More
Jon Gosselin would be doing daddy duty for another "eight" if Nadya Suleman had her way.
If Nadya Suleman had her way, she and Jon Gosselin would be an item—along with her 14 children and his eight. Radar caught Octomom on camera recently, asking her thoughts on the fall of Jon and Kate.
Suleman's response? "They're getting divorced? He's hot."
She must be pretty consumed with raising all those kids to have missed at the headlines on the Gosselin divorce. And then she obviously missed the headlines about Jon's 22-year-old GF. Jon Gosselin Engaged?
When asked, Suleman offered this advice to Kate on dating as a single parent: "Don't." Suleman doesn't think any single parent should be … Read More
John and Kate Gosselin will no longer be on reality TV, starting this November.
It's time to breath a sigh of relief: TLC has announced that they will stop airing the Gosselin reality-show quagmire this November.
Jon & Kate Plus 8, as the show was originally called, morphed into Kate Plus 8, when John Gosselin's antics became too much for the family-friendly TV channel. But then John forbade TLC to film his brood, and the network was left with nothing.
According to People, TLC will try to air a few more episodes with footage they have, but come November the saga will no longer be fueled by reality TV. Unfortunately, we doubt very much … Read More
The reality dad has reportedly withdrawn all but $1000 from his and Kate's joint account.
What started out as some condescending name-calling (on her part), affairs with trashy women (on his), and angry interviews (a seemingly fun activity for both), has devolved into something we call overzealous use of the ex's money (when we want to sound nice) or outright theft (when we don't).
We refer, of course, to Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin, their messy separation, and the latest allegations of wrong-doing being made public. Specifically, Radar Online reports that Jon recently emptied all but $1000 from the joint bank account he shares with Kate.
How much money would that be? We don't know the … Read More
An interview on Larry King Live reveals a suit against TLC's Kate Plus 8.
Entertainment Weekly had an interesting rundown of Jon Gosselin on Larry King Live (didn't Larry used to interview former heads of state and Marlon Brando?). In addition to amounts of verbal diarrhea we gleaned the following from his talks with old Hunchy McDivorcey:
1: Jon is really, really sorry. He apologized to Kate Gosselin (awww) and Hailey Glassman (hmm).
2: Jon is getting some therapy (applause) and now he is empowered (cringe). Read: When Couples Therapy Doesn't Work
3: Jon had an "epiphany" (golf clap) and thinks the kids should be off of Jon And Kate Plus 8 (nod … Read More
Jon Gosselin suspends divorce in what seems a reaction to getting kicked off 'Jon & Kate Plus 8.'
Yesterday a bombshell hit when sources spilled that Jon Gosselin had been kicked off Jon & Kate Plus 8, transforming the show into the brilliantly titled Kate Plus 8, highlighting Kate Gosselin as a single mom.
It appears that Jon is responding to the news with regret for his philandering and off-putting behavior by putting the brakes on the divorce. Yesterday Huffington Post reported that Jon Gosselin submitted a formal request for suspension of court proceedings, publicly condemning his own behavior since his split with Kate on June 22. "I regret my conduct since Kate and I separated … Read More
Jon Gosselin kicked off "Jon & Kate Plus 8."
This morning TLC announced that John would no longer be appearing in Jon & Kate Plus 8, and that the show will be renamed Kate Plus 8, according to People. At least it still rhymes. On November 2, we'll no longer be seeing the male half of the troubled Gosselin couple on TV. Except, maybe we will… Jon may be soon showing off his people skills in a talk show—he's reportedly taped a pilot costarring Paula Deen, Food Network star.
Whether or not Jon appears on the boob tube with estranged wife Kate, the couple's problems will continue. … Read More
Jon Gosselin's lady just went under the knife. Was it for him?
Plastic surgery has been good to Hailey Glassman over the years. The profession allowed her father to provide well for her family growing up. It indirectly led to her introduction to Jon Gosselin (whose estranged wife Kate Gosselin underwent a post-sextuplets tummy tuck courtesy of her dad). And more recently, it's helped her to feel more confident in her abilities to hold onto the D-list love affair she and Jon share. I Had Vaginal Rejuvenation Surgery
In an exclusive story, Star magazine reveals: "Hailey Glassmen went under the knife for breast surgery on September 16th...in a bid to … Read More
