Oh Snap!! Boo-yah!! Too funny. Love, love, love the Flintstone feet!

I'm so jealous, I want my own thread for a prize!

False Teeth

AuntieAnn said...

Oh Admin you were serious! A levity thread. Ha! Gosh I feel so...honored. lol

And the feet ARE hilarious.

KmartSmart said...

I know every woman has flaws and we should embrace them, but I laugh at Kate because of the way she thinks she's all that. The woman HAS NO HIPS! The only curves she has are the two mountains she paid for on her chest!
She absolutely has the torso and butt of a MAN!

When she goes way overboard with getting all glammed up like this in these silly clothes and way too much make up, she only comes out looking like a drag queen.

Oh, and Steve's looking kind of porky lately. He better watch it or Kate will find another booby guard.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

In a way I feel sorry for her, because instead of dressing in a way that is flattering to her body and would highlight the positives and downplay the negatives, she just kind of throws on any old trashy thing and then we get this debacle. We know she can look good, I thought she looked quite modest and classy at the Australia mystery auction (my new name for it).

She needs a stylist or some kind of help if she's going to insist on being in the public eye.

Big Toe said...

Wow, just look at the size of Kate's big toes! LOL I realize this is snark, but my gosh they are wide. And yet she feels the need to show those digits off, even in cool weather? She never did know how to "put her best foot forward" when making appearances. ;-)

Rearranging the Deck Chairs on the Titanic said...

My stomach is hurting, I am laughing so hard. Good one, Administrator.

Love handles said...

Steve has gotten way out of shape looking flabby and overweight. Stress eating?

A Pink Straight Jacket For Kate said...

It's great to see that Kate finally found a job working as a foot model for Costume Supercenter...

Thanks for the Sunday chuckle, Administrator:o)

Once a Viewer said...

SO funny...I really do hope Kate reads this! I agree she CAN look nice, but she goes over-the-top in every way, be it clothes, words, possessions,exaggerated tales...even planning to have HOM....This is a perfect thread for the foil dress and for AuntieAnn's prize . You're very creative, Admin! :)

JudyK said...

The Flintstone Feet are almost as funny as the Designer: Reynolds Wrap ensemble!

Tamara said...

It has always confused me that Khate has never listened to the pros hired to give advice on style and fashion. I can't think of anything that screams Stah more than being able to thank Rachel Zoe or whomever the Hollywood It Stylist is now. More proof that Khate's worst enemy is herself.

Boston Bonnie said...

I have to confess that I have the opposite problem with my feet than Kate. I have little toes that in lots of shoes don't show in the open toe and in others the little piggy sticks out the side. The difference is that I look at my feet and am honest with myself. No matter how cute the shoes are if they don't look good don't buy them!

Love the post - made me laugh so hard!

Bah Bah Black Sheep said...

I don't see any inflatable boobies on this thread!

Kate says she ran five miles on the treadmill. How can that be? She's so sick and exhausted and couldn't go to church:

Kate: "Just tired and run down I guess... Speaking of running, I just did a little over 5mi on the treadmill...guess I'm not TOO sick, huh?!"

Why in the heck is this woman so tired all of the time? From what? What does she do? She needs to get herself to a physician for a full work-up.

PatK said...

Excellent, Admin! LOL

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I may make this a tradition anytime Kate comes out with a horrendous outfit.

Susan said...

So petty.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Petty.....Susan, have you heard of snark? That's what this is.

AuntieAnn said...

Kate could make oodles of money if she marketed her very own paper doll complete with a wardrobe book full of her horrendously horrendous outfits.

Susan said...

When all you have left is (petty) snark, maybe it's time to call it quits. Or at least change the description of your blog to "Snark about Kate."

Westcoaster said...

At the risk of sounding concerned, maybe she does need a good physical exam. All this exhaustion, if not the usual exaggeration, could be many things - iron deficiency ( from rabbit food), low thyroid (my experience not much older than she is now), something like that. But since she rallied for the threadmill . . .

Thanks for the new post.

Oh no she didn't!! said...

Wow, this looks like a dress from Target or TjMaxx, I never see REAL stars where this type of outfit......this is definitely a "wannabe noveau riche" look, unfortunately it has a "cougar mom chaperoning the Prom" look to it. She is a joke. When is she going to realize she is just a bottom of the barrel D-lister who looks desperate to be in the public eye...with the "not a boyfriend".............

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Susan, that is what this blog has been doing for two years. Thanks for your input though.

Oh no she didn't!! said...

To Susan, thanks for the snark: Petty: P-pathetic E-egocentric T-trash T-twaffle Y-yo yo.........yep describes Kate perfectly.....

Uh huh. When all Kate has left is writing for a coupon blog, maybe it's time SHE calls it quits.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

If Kate were a politician I'd say snarking on her foil dress was petty. But she's a D lister celebrity, clothes are half of what people snark on about celebs. I will never understand if people are so against stuff like that why they even are at a celeb site.

Nobody Likes a Narcissist (NLAN) said...

Khate did not just randomly throw that dress and shoes on that day. She specifically picked out that outfit to get attention.

SO, she got it! Quit yer bitching!

Kate can't drive to church and sit in a pew, but she can RUN 5 MILES on her treadmill.

Ex Nurse said...

So...pettylicious!

Tamara said...

I want Kate to quit being a horrible, abusive, selfish mother. Otherwise I couldn't care less about what she wears.

Katie Cry-duh said...

Oh Susan, really. Kate would shrivel up and die if no one paid attention to her...it's the hallmark of a narcissist. She has the power to move that attention in a positive direction but dressing like a horny schoolteacher isn't the way to do it.

mim said...

Hey, a lot of sheeple tinfoil hats gave up their lives for that dress.

librarylady said...

Good grief, enough with the constant exhaustion comments. It's just like crying wolf now - I don't believe it. Even if it is, and if so she needs some sort of medical approach, keep it to herself. I'm sure my Amish neighbor with the 12 kids all one year apart is exhausted daily, too, but I sure don't hear her say it on an hourly basis.

Great point. But maybe it's:

Kate can't drive to church and sit in a pew, but she can TWEET about running 5 MILES on her treadmill.

Once a Viewer said...

Re: paper doll idea...that reminds me of the Dionne quintuplets' concern over the McCaughey (sp ?) septuplets and the letter they wrote in warning...I remember reading that there were paper dolls (as well as plastic replicas) of the Dionnes, just one way they were exploited...but a Kate doll would be ok- I agree there would be a market for this-even a Barbie or Bratz type...complete with wardrobe..seriously!

I wonder if Kate has tried to sell the kids' images for profit in any other ways...she already has done books, photos, the show, interviews, wanted to do the clothing line- what else?

Katie Cry-duh said...

Susan, guess what? You do not have control over how this blog is run. Admin does. If you're coming here to condescend to the posters, you'll get nothing but grief. There are other ways for you to spend your time, too.

senior citizen said...

Kate talk -

tired = bored.

exhausted = really bored

tired and rundown - really, really bored

After all, she's stuck home with her herd.

Gift of grab said...

So someone who was at the zoo gala is finally speaking up:

stellaaa76 XXXXXXX
@
@Chablis4u @ashymama2 @kateplusmy8 it did sell for over $1000 as I was outbid. Geez, don't believe everything u read!!

The usual "haters" have been baiting this lady, and this is what came out. It doesn't sound like it sold for very much--$1,000+ (even in AU $) is barely a dent in the travel expenses incurred (unless those were donated). If it went for much more than $1,000, I am sure stellaaa would have said so.

Kinda pathetic.

Nobody Likes a Narcissist (NLAN) said...

senior citizen ...39 - EXACTLY! Khate is ONLY tired and exhausted when she's "stuck" home with her children.


FYI to Susan - IF this blog shut down tomorrow, Khate would be DEVASTATED!

Admin 16 -- if this becomes a tradition every time she wears a gross, inappropriate or horrendous outfit, you may be doing a new post every day. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. I can always use a few good laughs. Thanks for supplying them!

Bah Bah Black Sheep 14 -- Agreed. Inflatable chestal area definitely needed.

readerlady said...

Oops. Hit publish too soon. Yes, Kate definitely needs a thorough check-up. She's very likely anemic, since she says she doesn't take any supplements or vitamins and her diet is woefully lacking. Low thyroid is also a definite possibility. Or -- the constant "exhaustion" could be depression.

Yep, when Kate goes away and we never see her again (as she once promised she would) I'll quit snarking on her too.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Susan didn't you see our discussion this very morning of Kate posting the snowsuit picture of her kids? She still exploits them even today, but reporting the pic here would only expose them more.

readerlady said...

Because, Susan 50, Kate is STILL exploiting her children when she blogs, makes appearances, etc. Virtually every blog is about the kids, most of what she talks about when she makes appearances is the kids and what an amazing mother she is and what a "mediocre" deadbeat Jon is. As long as Kate continues to exploit her kids, many of us will hang around to call her on it and have a little fun snarking on her in the process.

Katie Cry-duh said...

Susan, why do you care? This site advocates plenty for the G8 and other children. We also snark. Quit with the sanctimony.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Susan, you are welcome to post if you do not violate rule 3. But you repeatedly violated it, pretty much all of it. I gave you a lot of leeway and you pushed yourself to the limit. I often judge what will interest folks here

And for the record, since this is sometimes thrown out inaccurately, is that this is not a "child exploitation" blog. In fact, the original address of this blog was gosselindivorce. It was about the divorce. Child exploitation is one issue we talked about here, albeit a major one, but was never, on any planet, the reason I started this blog nor the point of this blog.

My suggestion to you, given your passion about child exploitation, is to contact Paul Petersen and see where they needy help, instead of spending all your energy derailing a celebrity snark thread.

Katie Cry-duh said...

So why doesn't Kate educate us about "her" koalas? Raise some awareness and maybe some money for the little guys? Does she ever think of anyone but herself?

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Sorry that got cut off, I often judge what interests folks here based on the number of comments. So if celeb snark threads don't interest people, I probably won't post them. But they do. I would do a post on carrots if that's what will elicit 700 comments, but it's not.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

$1500???? Oh, no, that doesn't even cover her fight.

She should have stayed home and donated the cost of her trip. The poor koalas would have gotten a lot more eucalyptus that way.

Some people think you can't snark and be serious about a cause. Funny, because some of the people I know who are incredibly involved in charity and causes, are also the funniest, snarkiest people I know. You can laugh and care about various causes, but some people don't get that.

Ex Nurse said...

Ok, I am going to be serious here....look at her picture at The Grove just 3 short years ago....

http://www.radaronline.com/photos/image/27431/2009/10/kate-gosselin-shops-grove

Age-appropriate, well-made, modest but not stuffy, classy, modern, figure flattering and classic dress--and well-fitting and appropriately fashionable shoes. None of those words can be used to describe her latest fashion blunder.

As much as she was teased about her reverse mullet, it was her signature look. Those slutty extensions were the beginning of the end, as she tried to transform herself from a busy working mom to a busy "working woman" and starlet. She brought about her own demise by alienating and offending her original fan base of Christian moms--she has no one but herself to blame that there are websites that are devoted to hurtling her back down the ladder of success that she had slithered to the top. She has squandered and bled dry every opportunity that has come her way. Sorry, Susan--it is just too much fun to watch Karma at work!

Westcoaster said...

Petty? Oh maybe in the snarky sense, it's just a slow news day over here, but why does it bother you?

Bitter? Heavens no, I don't K8 makes any of us bitter, we're way too normal for that. I understand it's a key word for sheeple, but nah, no bitter here.

Carry on.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I think the sanctimonious want us all to walk around like this:

http://codinghorror.typepad.com/.a/6a0120a85dcdae970b01287770208c970c-pi

To prove we are truly serious about child exploitation.

Eh, no thanks.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Ex Nurse, totally agree. And, had she maintained that Christian Women fan base instead of trashed it, I'm guessing her cruise would have a whole let more takers. A lot of the uber Christians love their cruises and quite frankly, have money. It's a family friendly thing if you're on the right trip.

She's dwindled her fan base down to some teens and a few shut ins and mentally ill. If any of them are even physically capable of going on the cruise, let's face it, it's doubtful most of them can afford it and on such short notice.

hey jude said...

once a viewer- you were kidding about there being a market for Kate dolls, right? What would they call it," Moms Gone Wild "barbie, er umm Katie?

They would have to make her and the 8 kids, otherwise no one would know who it was.I would never buy one, but if someone gave it to me, I would like to stick pins in it.

Good on ya, Auntie Anne, enjoy your prize.This was hysterical Admin. -thanks for sharing this. LOL!

I've heard from Hippie, she's okay just taking a break. THe person that keeps popping up here under her name the past few months is an impostor.

Katie Cry-duh said...

Yeah, ex-nurse, bingo! Kate was über-Christian when they first gained notoriety. And her Christian fan base was so good to her. She dumped their asses the second she found something better: the potential to be a celebrity and really rich. Saddest of all is the rumor that she was a predator going after the Christians in the first place. Word is, Bobbi McCaughey told her how wonderful her church had been to her family and Kate was off to the races spouting verses from the bible and pretending to have something in common with true Christians. She is soooo
vile and it started the minute she conceived those poor sextuplets.

Thanks for the link to these pictures. She actually looks good here and looks thinner and curvier (with a waist) Goes to show what better wardrobe choices make when it comes to your appearance.
Her lateset appearance at the grove made her look like a man in drag.
Heck even Steve looked better 3 years ago. (he's wearing the same outfit though, just this time he's got a bigger paunch and needs a haircut)

Anonymous said...

I dont see anything wrong with kate's toes (no need for anyone to try and explain what they think is wrong with them- I've read it all already). She probably could go up a half size in shoes though, just to ensure her feet are on the shoes completely at all times.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Her feet never actually stood out for me either until she started squeezing them into shoes that were too small.

The worst thing you can do when you have big feet or something else out of proportion, is to try to squeeze into something too small.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

She DOES look way better at the Grove before. Even her hair is not that bad from the front. The back is one big spiky mess but that could have easily been fixed. She was dressing smart there--smart thin black jeans which are always slimming. And you can't go wrong with a conservative blouse and hip jacket. She looks how real women dress in LA when they go to the Grove.

She went trashy Hollywood since, and she looks worse.

Katie Cry-duh said...

One can argue that it is exactly this image of the plastic-surgery addicted superslut has harmed her children emotionally and financially. Their mom has proven herself to be financially irresponsible, delusional, deceitful and foolish in her pursuit of individual fame and glory. SHE ruined their brand and alienated their fan base/paycheck. I believe that she has aired her ugliness so publicly that she is basically unemployable. Who would volunteer to put up with her foolishness? Who would want to write her a check knowing that she'll spend disproportionately on herself and deny her kids the basics? She is a persona non grata, a fool, an asshole. It must suck to have a mom who is so hated, and not just by you.

Berks Neighbor said...

The old Grove Pictures and the new Grove pictures show that she did have lipo done to rid herself of her saddle bags. The problem with that is that her saddlebags (the larger hips) actually helped give her a waist.
When she had the outer thigh and inner thigh lipo done it made her waist look thicker and there's not much more sculpting they could do to fix her torso (as she probably still has a lot of scar tissue from her c'section and her tummy tuck).

She just loves to dismiss everyone like that. Oh that's just a hater they have no drive or goals and it's "sad."

Boy does she underestimate all the bright people who have called her out. No, Kate, you're sad. It's sad that your drive, passion and goal since they were born has been to exploit your kids.

I will guarantee that most of us on this board not only have real jobs (not make belief hollywood ones) and/or run our own businesses (that don't involve child labor) I would be one of those that actually owns my own business - paid off my home - and am still married to my husband for over 21 years.
What has she done that shows her drive passions and goals.
Oh I know, she refinanced her house that she can't pay for now, threw her husband who was a good father to their children out with the trash, and ran a marathon. Big frickin' deal.

Kate can think what she likes about her non-fans, but the demographic she has in mind is better suited to the few fans left.

Katie Cry-duh said...

So, Kreider, be truthful here. What exactly are your passions and goals? Getting stuff for free? Getting someone else to support your kids? Anything of substance? Where is your drive when it comes to doing something like bathing your kids? Please, bitch, you are the lowest of the low using God and your children to achieve your goals.

*******************************************

It seems like for the most part, TLC kept her on a short leash when it came to dressing for PR spots. Some of the dresses she wore were clingy, but they looked expensive and well-made. Lol.... I can just imagine TLCs PR gal Laurie Goldberg and Kate arguing about her wardrobe for the Today show, the View etc. "Whhhhhyyyy can't I wear my gladiator shoes Laurie? "Now Kate, Loft send this beautiful dress over, you can't wear gladiator shoes with it" "Why? just give me one good reason, just one..... buuuuuut I liiiike them" Just like a 14 yr. old girl.

That look got her alot of publicity, that's exactly why she did it. But that's the extent of it, dressing that way will not convey into anything resembling a career in show business.

Tamara said...

Do any of the sheeple tweet about Steve? I'd love to see one mention to Kate how tubby he was looking in the recent pics. Beer gut? Because I can't imagine being around her for any extensive period of time and not be at least pleasantly buzzed.

Re Jon being brought into it by the media, I truly thinks that most of America wouldn't recognise Kate without a mention of Jon. Especially with the trademark hair long gone.

How would Khate and the sheeple get along if this board went dark (or private) for just a week. They'd go nuts. Too bad all those haterz on twitter are just keeping her relevant. Don't poke the crazy.

wayward, you're right. Kate acts like a petulant 14 yr. old girl. TLC might have put up with her , but the real world ain't having any of it from her. Poor thing is confused as to why she can't get everybody to jump like they once did ,when she barked out orders.

Kate, let me clear this up for you. No one wants to see or hear from you anymore, your 15 min. is way over, now grow up and raise those 8 kids you say ,ad nauseum ,how much you love.

No matter how much you change the outside, you have no heart and it shows in everything you say or do. Funny that TLC hired and fired you for the same reason, your trashy mouth.It got old real fast, just like you did.

Time to get a real job and feed your kids- it only gets better as the kids get to be teens, good luck with that.You only think you're exhausted now, wait til you have 8 teenagers living with you! I look forward to hearing about that...from them in their books.

I think that's a great point. She wasn't always so mannish around the hips was she? I wonder when she changed.

Downeaster Alexa said...

admin said..."The worst thing you can do when you have big feet or something else out of proportion, is to try to squeeze into something too small."

=============

How can you walk in shoes with your toes hanging out the front? Wouldn't that drive you crazy? Has she ever looked at a photo of her feet in open-toe shoes? If so, she has to see how ridiculous it looks.

Well, Kate's in bed at 9 p.m. What does this woman do besides sleep (because she's so exhausted) and complain about being exhausted? Does she expect a pity-party?

Ex Nurse said...

If Kate wanted all of the blogs to go dark, she would make her Twitter private. She has been so out of the public eye, there have been long stretches when that was really the only topic.

Notice how little commentary there is about Jon. That is because we respect his privacy as well as the boundaries that he set between his children and the public eye by making his Twitter account private. That single action alone shows that he has the best interest of his children at heart. Not only does he talk the talk, he walks the walk.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Ex Nurse, totally agree. Jon is proof it can be done, you can go back. He was just as famous as Kate. It's to the point where I feel weird talking about Jon, other than what Kate says about him, because I feel like I have no right to do that when he has made such a concerted effort to remove himself from the public eye. Will Kate ever get to that point here? We'll see.

Ex Nurse said...

Maybe it is time to consider taking his picture off the top of the blog? A show of good faith and suppoort?

It really kills me to defend anything about this person, but if the only contact she has with "haterz" is on twitter, I really can't blame her for coming to this conclusion. Those people are every bit as batshit crazy as Kate or any member of her flock.

Now I'm going to go throw back a good, stiff drink...maybe two...and try to forget I ever used the words defend and Kate in the same sentence.

Dallas Lady said...

I've long been in favor of taking Jon out of the header pic. I don't think it will mean he's not in the kids' lives, I think it would just symbolize our respect for the private life he wants and is living now.

I wouldn't even mind the tops of the kids' heads disappearing. Leave big orange horse-toothed Kate twatting away on her phone.

Downeaster Alexa said...

"It really kills me to defend anything about this person, but if the only contact she has with "haterz" is on twitter, I really can't blame her for coming to this conclusion. Those people are every bit as batshit crazy as Kate or any member of her flock."

===============

Absolutely - they are worse than batshit crazy...especially the ones that hang on there for twelve hours at a time and do nothing but harass Kate and everyone else not in their camp. Their tweets are rude, condescending and just downright obnoxious. If I read some of those tweets, there are times when my jaw drops, and I think...are these adults saying these vile things? I can't believe what I'm reading!

I do think, though, that Kate reads other blogs, and I wonder if she doesn't know the "reputation" many of her sheeple have as being pathetic low-lifes who do nothing more than try to "out" others with lies and blog battles, especially one of them who says she is going on the cruise.

Kate at The Grove three years ago -- that's Kate? Oh, my gosh...she looks classy! Hair has nice low-lights and high-lights, dressed appropriately, just really, really nicely dressed. What in the world did she do to herself? The Malibu Barbie look just doesn't work for her - unless, of course, she wants to look like just another Hollywood bimbo on the block.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I've been meaning to contact the artist about possibly doing a fresh banner that is more about reality tv kids in general, not just these kids. But I'm not good with designing stuff like that. Jon may or may not be part of that, we'll have to see. I respect him now, but he still is responsible for many years of what happened here, and I fully believe he knows that, accepts that, owns that, and is accountable to the children for that and knows how much explaining and therapy they may require of him in the future for those years.

The leading header of the blog is in the present tense..."Kate, Jon, and TLC MAKE on their relentless quest..."

That is no longer true. His caricature there implies that it is still the case.

Boo hoo, they're bored at what's left of their sheeple blogs.

Nobody Likes a Narcissist (NLAN) said...

Oh I know, since the sheeple are so annoyed that we're discussing something as petty and inconsequential as Khate's PUBLIC appearance where SHE was PROMOTING something (and HERSELF), maybe they'd be happier if we describe all the ways she sucks as a "mother".

I'll start:

- She publicly and repeatedly disparages the father of her children.
- She allows her own bitterness to cause her to ban the children's father from THEIR property.
- She refuses to get a real job where she would at least provide the kids with a consistent and regular schedule and she'd be home with them every afternoon and evening, choosing instead to chase "fame" and leave the kids with revolving "sitters" for days on end (sometimes almost half the month!)

Lynn W. said...

Admin, if you have the artist redesign the heading and include the children, perhaps Jon could be placed with them as an indication that they are the real family unit.

I thought the kids and Kate went to bed at 7:30. Now they go to bed at 9:00. It's Sunday, the kids surely have school tomorrow and have to get up at what, 5:30?

Another lie, obviously. Sorry but I felt like calling this one out. Make up your mind Kate. It would do you personally a world of good you know.

I wonder what Kate is going to be doing after the cruise is over?.

----------------------------

I'm just going to refrain from typing the first response that popped into my head when I read that.

Let's see, she would be returning from the cruise just before school starts. So, she should force herself to be a good mother and get the kids ready for school, prepared for a new school year, and try to provide them with a CONSISTENT SCHEDULE.

I have only been observing this Khate mess since the time of the divorce announcement and I cannot believe how these children have NEVER had a normal life with a consistent schedule. They have been living a ROLLER COASTER existence and it is all the fault of their "mother".

Kate must be furious the little people are getting yet another special. I'm watching the one about Zach. It's good to know he is an adult now and can choose to do this or not.

JoannaNY said...

Someone commented that Kate has the Twitter haters blocked. I'm not sure how Twitter works, but isn't this her page? Sometimes when she signs off, she tells the sheeple to talk among themselves. Doesn't she know the extent of the bullying that goes on between the sheeple and the haters?

If this were "my" page, I'd pull it down in a heartbeat. I wouldn't want to be party to this nonsense, or be associated with the harassing that goes on there.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

As far as I'm concerned the sheeple and haters who harass on twitter are cut from the same cloth. If Kate won't shut down her Twitter account, the least she could do was say she won't tolerate the harassment from EITHER side and that either side will be blocked if they do it. Instead she rather encourages the sheeple, borderline participating in it by making cruel and unnecessary insightful statements that haters have no goals, passion, etc. The extent of how disturbed this woman is never would have been known without Twitter, but I've seen my fill and would be happy if she shut it down today.

That's not exactly how Twitter works. There aren't "pages" in the sense you are thinking. When you go to someone's page, it is just a listing of all the Tweets that person has made. (You can click around and see Replies as well. I don't need to get into the whole thing, I want to keep this brief). You can also see when a certain user has been mentioned. A mention is the @twitternamehere that you see all the time. Once you block a user, you won't see their tweets. Anybody else can see them, but you don't. So chances are she doesn't see the "bullying" tweets you speak of. If she does, she probably doesn't care much as I'm sure she's just happy to still be something people are talking about.

And if you do redesign the top, maybe give TLC recognition for finally seeing the light and refusing to film the fiasco any longer. I think that it is time to show that the only one still using the kids is KT, except now, thankfully it is only on her website where she has "tons" of recent pictures. Did she ever actually show the kids in the snow yesterday?

wayward said...

RT @StephaniePegues @Kateplusmy8 I love ur show wish it would come back on!!! SAME... SORRY :( 5 minutes ago
________________________________________________

Ok, I call major BS on all these recent "loved ur show, are you coming back?" tweets. What is this, like the 5th in a week?

All of a sudden, FIVE months after the show is canceled, just this week- these people are pining for more of the "Kate + 8 Go Places You Will NEVER be Able To Afford- Kate Gets Stressed And Freaks Out And The Kids Are Tired And Cranky" show?

If I didn't know better, I would guess that someone is wishing she had been a little more flexible with TLC. Maybe not insist on so many trips. Maybe she should have not insisted on having a home improvement worked into almost every show they filmed at home. Maybe she should have been the hard worker she claims to be and made a go of Twist of Kate. Maybe she shouldn't have made coming into contact with the public while filming an irrational big deal.

But then again, she probably doesn't see that the above mentioned events led to the downfall of the show. If TLC came to her today and offered her her show back, she'd want it to go back to the exact way it was. She has no awareness that her actions have consequences, she only cares about herself and what she wants.

Tamara said...

TLC didn't finally see the light. The only thing they saw was the bottom line. If Kate and the kids had still been making them money they would have filmed forever.

Pity Party said...

Yes she did look good then. She looked even ever so slightly intelligent and just a tiny bit like a a business woman. Who knew? She was high on big money then and what she thought was her endless new found freedom with TLC essentially orchestrating the care for the kids while she traveled with PB. I miss the old hair and I am thinking of getting the bob like she had in the one NY pic that was so beautiful,while she was waiting for the ghastly extensions.

Kat said...

I wish she would state her goals and passions. Wait I know....To use her kids to line her pockets, to take gifts from poor strangers, to cut her immediate family out of the kids lives, to....oh please...I don't have all day. She should be so proud of herself..freaking asshole..

===============

My understanding is that as long as haters also include a non-blocked person in their tweet to Kate, Kate will see it. So the hater tweets something to Kate and also includes Milo's name. Since Milo isn't blocked, the hater's tweet still shows up in Kate's feed. It's why haters never tweet only to Kate. (I don't tweet, so correct me if I'm wrong.)

Why didn't she press cancel on the alarm or tell the monitoring company when they called that it was a false alarm? We have a house alarm, that's all you have to do to prevent an unnecessary visit from the police.

She's so stupid.

I've been meaning to contact the artist about possibly doing a fresh banner that is more about reality tv kids in general, not just these kids. But I'm not good with designing stuff like that.

==========

You might want to include a tiara or two.

I've never watched "Toddlers and Tiaras," but Dr. Lillian Glass had an interesting article about the show and one out-of-control child in particular. I fault TLC for giving these crazy parents (including Kate) a platform, for using the parents' neuroses as fodder for entertainment.

My 13-year-old nephew is being raised very poorly. He has a foul mouth, runs wild, and has no respect for his parents (my husband's sister) or for his cousins... No real parenting. It's awful to watch his train wreck unfold. I'd hate it if my nephew and his family were on a reality show and glamorized. It might actually make my husband's sister--and other parents--believe "everyone does it," so it's okay. Rewarding poor parenting? Making these awful parents rich while exploiting the children's behavior? WOW.

Kate and her perfect grammar---Me and my treadmill. Her kids don't stand a chance, if she helps them with homework.

And, as someone else said, how nice that she complains about the police slowing her down this morning when she is the one who set off the alarm and they responded.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The parents are also out of control. The children mimic the parents behavior. The parents then get upset at how their children are reacting and get more out of control. There have been a few parents who throw tantrums because their child lost. Some children are expected to learn a new routine in a few days. Its ridiculous to expect a child to preform perfectly with only 3 days of practice. I stopped watching that show after a few episodes.

She has those huge trash cans on wheels. How would a dog get into them to spread the trash, and if he did, maybe he isn't getting fed enough? Maybe the neighbors complained, and thus the police visit?

Pity Party said...

I guess I see things differently, but I think TLC could have gone on endlessly with the plus or minus 1 million viewers per episode. I personally think that something HAPPENED to make them drop her hard like they did and essentially wash their hands of her and her demands.

chefsummer #Leh said...

So Kate set off her alarm why did she do that and where was Steve.?

Pity Party said...

I set the alarm off at work once when I went in alone on the weekend. The police did not come. The alarm company called and I told them what happened and they cleared it with the police.

She has been working twitter for a new treadmill for a while now. I think M/J is about to take the bait.

Totally and completely agree that TLC never saw the light. It was a business decision not to film anymore because of ratings and possibly Kate's behavior and had absolutely nothing, whatsoever, to do with seeing the light and wanting to protect the kids. TLC continues to film and exploit kids and has no conscience and is just out to seek the next kids to exploit.

I wonder if it had something to do with the RV trip and her major meltdown over pizza. I wonder if there was more to that story. i would love to see the unedited version of that fight.

I would not be surprised to see that contract negations broke down either. I would not doubt that Kate wanted more money then TLC would offer. There is something that we dont know about. I hope it comes to light in the next few years.

I'm thinking this might have something to do with it too. Kate wanted a raise for the next contract, TLC wasn't going to do that given the dwindling ratings and maybe TLC even wanted to give her a pay cut and do less trips to correlate with the poor ratings. Kate's team threw a hissy fit and TLC walked away from it, too much trouble.

I also think the legal mess they would have to go through to get Jon on board with signing another contract was not worth the bad press to them. This was not two years ago, America had come around and for TLC to drag a father to court AGAIN who just wanted his kids to have a private life, I'm guessing the PR team said no to that, especially with bad ratings--not worth it.

It explains why she sort of had a resurge of throwing Jon under the bus since the show was cancelled. She's pissed about something to do with him.

JudyK said...

First, yes, she has posted on CC (although she clearly did not write it).

From her blog which she obviously did write (and, Kate, you are so pathetically transparent)--poor Shoka:

"Dear Humans…

January 23, 2012

When the day is dark and it’s cold and rainy outside, why oh why must I come inside? You call me and call me and I don’t come to the door…. mostly because I do not want to come inside but also because I do not like to be dried off with my soft blue towel. When I finally come to the door, after you call me repeatedly using both my first AND middle names, “Shoka Joe, come NOW!”, I stand politely and patiently yet miserably, with my dog eyes, while you dry me off and give me a treat… Thank you for my dry milkbone biscuit….but don’t you know I do some of my best hunting in the inclement weather… and that the best barking finds on my property are when the smells are heightened in the rain? I do not care that my freshly groomed fluffy fur emits a smell like… well, a dog (gasp!)! Why then must you care?

Oh, my humans, I do love you, so I come when you call me, even if a bit reluctantly, but please just once can’t you forget about me and let me stay outside and get all dirty and soaked to the bone? It’s so much wagging fun! I try to behave when you call me in, but just to “help” you with the drying process, I just HAVE to shake my entire lovable self and spray you with my good wet smell! For some reason, that upsets you…. Could it be because you don’t love me or is it because you are all dressed up in hair, makeup and heels ready to go away and you are offended by my canine scent?

It’s a ruff life being a spoiled Shepherd but, well, some dogs gotta do it…"

Jumping In said...

I have been a reader for some time because of the intelligent commentary on Kate. Like many of the posters I am constantly fascinated by her behaviour and her disconnect from reality. Her desperation to remain relevant deepens with each "D List" appearance she chases, yet she's still looking for something, anything that will keep her in the public eye.

What I have wondered for so long is why doesn't she sell her large property, downsize in the same area and free up some equity for the future of her family, or is that just too simple an idea?

What a lonely life, 8 kids she has no connection with, relatives fallen away, and ex-husband thrown under countless buses, and a pudgy bodyguard trying to steer her non-existent career to nowhere. I will take my ordinary, honest life any day of the week.

Westcoaster said...

Sorry, but old could that ancient treadmill possibly be? She didn't have a home gym in the old house, did she?

Oh boy, another round of Skoka Diaries, she really has next to nothing to say these days. After last night's GN tweet about her busy and exciting week ahead, this is it? Newsflash K8, stop using the word exciting, your life these days is pretty much like everyone's, except we like ours.

I think she bought the tinsel dress in Las Vegas, off some rack marked "tunic dressing".

As for TLC, I think she woild still be filming, at least specials, if she had just brought some humor and decent behavior to the RV trip - between the fillm crews, the equipment, the extra peeps, it was a major undertaking and this biotch was completely ungrateful, not to mention completely unglued - Vacuumgate, Pizzagate, horrific behavior to kids not her own. Add that to the Sarah Palin fiasco, and dropping ratings, and someone at TLC finally finally had enough. And since another school year was starting, time to pull the plug. I agree that she knows damn well it's over judging from her replies to recent tweets and I also think she's furious about it, but in this case she knows she can't throw TLC under the bus. In her mind this has nothing to do with her awful behavior, but it's Jon's fault for not agreeing to have the children filmed in a new
contract year. Silly twit has probably never seen the movie, but we all know she's still waiting for her closeup, Mr. deMille. In the meantime grifting and whining will have to do.

Oh, thanks ( I guess, lol!) Those two entries are new since I last visited CC and K8's site...ahem. First, Kate does NOT know dogs. They don't like to be out forever in the winter rain, and they DO appreciate being dried off. I notice she's sure to point out even Shoka Joe's treats are 'healthy' ones for dogs. I have had dogs of different breeds, one a shepherd mix, and so I feel that she is misquoting Shoka!

As for the CC entry, again, nothing new, and again, HER unoriginal tips, little about coupons except to use them...oy! And she should not brag about recycling when she uses so many paper goods daily!

Mel said...

I wonder if it had something to do with the RV trip

No....I think whatever it was, it was before the RV trip. IMO, the RV trip was filmed knowing that they were going to cancel her. They made no effort there to cover her bad behavior.

It was pretty hysterical, cuz she was clearly used to them editing that stuff out. So here she was, blithely being her usual ugly self, thinking it would be edited out, and then it wasn't. :) :) :)

It was almost like they went out of their way to highlight her bad behavior on the RV trip.

I wonder if whatever it was, it started as the aftermath of the Palin trip. Maybe there was some push-back as a result of her bad behavior on the Palin trip? Or she over-stepped a line there somehow, and wouldn't apologize?

It seemed like TLC started being down on her in the late winter/early spring of 2011, culminating the RV trip in the summer, where they seemed to set her up for failure.

Remember that some random commenter on a blog unrelated to Kate said they she was in the site next to Kate, and that Kate spent most of her time in the camper yelling about "just cancel the show then!"

So even back then there must have been some talk with her about cancellation.

Sure would love to know what the precipitating event was. It must have been good!

Tamara said...

I have never known a single dog who would rather be out in the cold rain instead of inside with their family. Hell, even abused dogs prefer to be with their owners.

And I still don't think that Kate's griffting has gotten any worse. It's just more desperate, more public, and not as slick as it was. It's her ego and lack of intelligence that make her think she's going to get much blood out of her pathetic twitter sheeples rocks.

See? Kate's not a bad dog mommy. Shoka just doesn't WANT to come inside.


Garbage!

Ingrid said...

I think she got cancelled from a combination of things. Ratings/money TLC lost and attitude mostly.

Her ratings for those expensive Australia episodes stunk yet I remember her talking on twitter later on about all the great suggestions she had for future episodes at meetings with TLC. (trip to England for example). She was groveling for fancy trips and TLC knew if the Aussie one didn't help ratings nothing would.

I wouldn't put it past her to shriek at the director, producer, crew etc once she was having a meltdown about other things. Since her friends weren't kissing her butt she would just go on to whoever she thought would help her. (Steve, producer, director etc). I am sure they got very sick of her. I would love to read a book from some of those crew members.

Most dogs dig in the garbage when they are board. They also dig in the garbage when they are hungry. Poor Shoka, his owner will never understand why he is doing what dogs do. Most dogs would also be happy to come inside where its warm and dry. The only exception that I know of is abused dogs. They sometimes have no interest in being with their owner because they know that they will be hurt.

Say what??? I never heard anything about that. Got any more details?

I remember that, but I thought it was a facebook post. The man said the crew spent all their time playing with the children while Katie Irene sat in the RV and yelled.

What I have wondered for so long is why doesn't she sell her large property,

I don't think she wants to give up the status of owning a huge place. She always has to have better and bigger-can't let the tabs and haters know she struggles). Plus she may lose that buffer of land around it for security from paps/fans if she can't get a place with large fenced acreage again.

Has to stay outside all the time and get wet and dirty and, cold.

That poor dog. I can just see Kate fussing and pissing and bitching about a wet dog. Yeah, dogs get wet when it's raining out. The thing that jumped out to me is that the dog hates getting dried? Seriously?
My 3 dogs line up for the towel. They love it!
And I'm about to go apoplectic about Kate's complaining that cops slowed her down. Why? Why take a dig at the police, from whom she has drained resources for as long as her tups have been alive?
How about an apology for wasting their time and the money of the good and decent citizens of PA?
Am I missing something here? Your home and your alarm goes off by accident.... doesn't the alarm company call? Or, if you know that you're hard wired to the Police Dept., don't you call and let them know it's a false alarm?
This is just one more time where Kate has absolutely no awareness of anyone else but her, or anything beyond her own nose.

************************************************

She probably thinks in her stinkin' convoluted mind that "Shoka's Diary" will absolve her of being a poor, absentee doggie mother.

Chances are, Kate is as distant, and uninterested in Shoka, as she is with her own children.

url said...

I agree with another poster, Kart probably picked up that cheap tacky dress at one of those touristy boutiques in a LV hotel, along with the shoes. It was probably for casino night and a walk down the strip hoping that some lone pap would notice her and take her picture. That didn't happen, so the cheap looking foil wrap ensemble ended up at the Grove.

If she set the alarm off, all she needed was to wait for the alarm company to call or to call them to report a false alarm. Maybe Kart has a fondness for one of the police officers. Was she wearing her foil dress or was she wearing lingerie underneath her Red Cross blanket when they came to the door? She may be soliciting them as recruitments for her cruise.

chefsummer #Leh said...

Maybe she set off the alarm so the paps would come along with the police.

url said...

Kart's probably thinking Shoka Joe's diary will be a best selling children's series. Her writing is so creative and innovative. Next, she'll write he likes to play football and he's a wide end receiver.

Wow! Good find. Thank you. I'd never seen that.

Kate was po'd from the beginning judging on how she angrily tromped around when packing the RVs, etc. and telling Mady, "When you're helping me you should know you need to run!" So I can believe this very well might have happened.

I guess she thought she was such a hot commodity they would never cancel her no matter what she said.

Ooops!

Our house alarm is set up that when the house alarm goes off, the alarm station will call us immediately to make sure everything/everyone is safe. The police are only called to our home if no one picks up the phone, or if we tell the alarm station that we are in danger.

Probably, when Kate saw the garbage strewn on her floor, she freaked out and called the police, hoping that they would clean it up for her- just kidding ;o) Who knows, with Kate.

I believe that she creates her own drama.

Pity Party said...

I'm sorry, but Shoka Joe? (WTH did that come from) does not sound like a spoiled dog to me. He sounds like a dog that is made to stay outside all the time and is let in and/or groomed for a photo op, and that is about it.

++++++++++++++++++

Yes. The alarm company calls and you give them your security passcode (so they know it's not an intruder telling them everything is okay). When people were still using landlines rather than cell phones, some alarm systems captured the landlines when the alarms were activated, and companies couldn't call, so police showed up. I seriously doubt that Kate has that kind of system.

Tucker's Mom said...

*****
I think Kate knew darn well that she was skating on thin ice and wasn't getting granted her every wish as she had in the past. I remember her coquettishly asking the crew if she could get a new RV since hers was spewing mud and half the shit in it was broken.
She didn't get it, and that was very telling.
Frankly, I don't blame her for asking for a new one. An entire day or two in a hot RV? Yeah, not happening for me. I'd have pitched a fit.
But, back to the "sudden" cancelation, I think that Kate yacked on and on about the show never being canceled was as they say, whistling past the graveyard.

Layla said...

Shoka Diaries:

Devil-woman, I am truly sorry for putting you through the hell of taking care of me. Every morning I sit by the door, waiting to be let out so that I can escape your wrath for the day. Today it was rainy and cold, and I sought shelter under the old chicken house. When I heard you screech my name, I came running as fast as I could, because I know that if you have to call me twice, there will be hell to pay. It took me awhile to get out from under the chicken coop, so you had called me three times by the time I got to the door. Your eyes were bulging out, your face was red, and the veins in your neck were standing out. I knew I was in trouble, and then I noticed that you were wearing a sequinned dress, spike heels, and a feather boa around your neck. Uh-oh, I knew what that meant even before I saw the cheap plastic wine glass in your hand. The housekeeper roughly dried me off with a towel while you screamed in my ear about what a pain in the ass I am. When I was dry, I ran away to hide behind the couch while you teetered off in your wobbly heels to watch videos of your long-gone glory days on TV and drank yourself into a stupor.

Sorry for living
Shoka

I do not think I have ever seen anything as pathetic as M/J's tweets to Kate, a virtual stranger. Sad, and yes potentially scary, too. If ths person was physically able, TwitMom might actually need her alarm system. Shaking my head.

I'm still waiting for someone on the inside to break the silence too - not that we don't already know that it had to be a hellish experience.

If TLC dumped her you would think they wouldn't care who does a tell-all on that banshee now.

Once a Viewer said...

Yes, those tweets are sad and pathetic...Kate should not encourage this person...

Also sad is Layla's version of SJ's diary- I'm afraid it's closer to the truth than the 'original.' I love animals and I feel terrible for that dog. Some episodes showed her feeding him, no affection, and roughly brushing him like a pain in the a$$, sort of how she treated the kids when brushing hair etc! Jon usually dressed them but for some reason she did their hair .( badly)

Tucker's Mom said...

Oh Layla, you've outdone yourself! It's so true. We know for a fact that Kate's syrupy missives are not in agreeance with her behavior.
Tweets: I love my kids and my kids love me! Rainbows and Unicorns!!!!!!!
Real life: If you're helping me, you know you better be running!! And the girls looked fricking terrified!

Purple Skies said...

No dog prefers to be outside in cold rainy weather. Poor Shoka. There's a reason Kate wrote that deceptive article on him....wonder if a concerned neighbor called in an effort to humanely protect Shoka from Kate's inept care? No doubt Kate treats that dog the same way she treats her kids....in an uptight, over-the-top, cold, aggressive, yet dismissive manner.

It's also quite possible the cops were there because of Shoka (if someone called on his welfare), not the alarm. I admit I haven't thoroughly read the prior posts to know if the cops were actually at the Gosselin household...so this is projection & assumptions based on a quick scan of this thread.

My dog loved the dry towel AND the hair dryer, set on warm/low. He'd sit and wait for me until I brought it into the den to dry him off. Then he got a slice of cheese. If dogs could purr....

Call Me Crazy said...

Kate's ridiculous Shoka Diary entry is just another of her pathetic attempts to deflect criticism about her neglect of that poor dog. She is so transparent, predictable and vapid.

She has no idea how to care for any living thing, human or otherwise. I wonder if that poor Siamese Fighting Fish has been flushed down the porcelain pony yet. She disgusts me.

It was hard to watch. The way she treated those dogs was horrible. I wish the breeder had never allowed her to take poor Shoka back.

Mel said...

Here's a TLC show that would get mega-ratings.....all the out-takes showing Kate's histrionics and mis-behavior. They could make that a weekly show that would last for months!

I'd say I'd watch, except I really wouldn't cuz it would break my heart to see those poor little kids and the dogs being mis-treated.

Get lucky in Kentucky said...

About the cruise... I keep picturing a fight breaking out amongst the sheeple if one gets to talk with their queen longer than others. Paying that kind of money to see Milo getting extra love from khate (while themselves knowing that bitch crazy), is bound to piss off many sheeple.

mamaK said...

So, I just read Kate's "I'm so organized I use coupons" tips at couponcabin. I must have hallucinated, cuz the second tip is "I reuse and recycle". REALLY???

Ex nurse, maybe the police were not there. We only have Kates word that this happened. Isnt it sad that she is such a liar that even this causes doubt.

Kate's Cart said...

Kate tweeted that she didn't know who made the aluminum dress. BS - all nouveau riche pay very close attention to labels. She is either embarrassed that it looks so cheap or doesn't want anyone to find out how expensive it really was. Look up silver COCKTAIL dresses - and you get lots of those looks. Kate - it's cocktail dress, not afternoon "working" attire.

AuntieAnn said...

Re: the common upthread about Kate not selling her acreage/house

There is an article on TMZ today about octomom and the neighbors. Maybe this is why Kate doesn't want to live among the common folk too.

But perhaps the most significant complaint -- neighbors have been informed by real estate agents that living near Octo could LOWER the value of their homes ... because they would have to disclose the fact that she lives close by.

... and you thought you had bad neighbors.

Kate is a twit said...

Regarding the false alarm--aren't there charges involved if a false alarm results in the appearance of the police or fire department?

When I worked in a bank, we were told to immediately call the alarm company if we set off the alarm accidentally. In most instances, even if we called, the police had already been notified. The alarm company would tell us that a penalty might be assessed for the false alarm.

_____________________________________

You are spot on IMO and I meant to add that in my original post about Shoka.

I don't think the cops were there at all about an alarm going off...I think someone called in regarding Shoka, so Kate wrote her insincere, drippy, syrupy response to make her look like a loving owner when she's, in fact, anything but. That's what I meant by saying she was so transparent...the timing was just too much of a coincidence.

The trash was scattered...probably went down something like this: Shoka was left out in the rain and cold with no food and was doing what dogs do...fending for himself. Kate saw the trash scattered all around and started screeching and hollering like a banshee at Shoka and maybe more than that--a neighbor or someone passing by called the cops.

She's a sociopathic bitch who doesn't deserve to be a mother or a pet owner. And, yeah, this is just my version, but I bet I'm more right than wrong.

Isn't this TIN FOIL DRESS the same one Krate wore on Dancing With The Stars?

It was after she was kicked off; she was sitting/standing in the audience and we were joking about her undies/Spanx outline showing through and some kind of padding on her thighs to even out her boxy hips.

Does ANYONE else remember this dress from DWTS or have I just completely lost my mind?

You see, Kate? It can happen. You're not too famous or too important or too anything to not go back to being a private citizen, so stop bleaching you hair, tanning your body, whitening your teeth and getting fake nails and just be who you were... a very pretty lady.
(yeah, like that's going to happen)

Ingrid said...

AuntieAnn... unfortunately even if TLC doesn't care about a tell all book the writer could get sued hugely if they signed a CA. Plus TLC might care because other people on their shows could bale if they can't trust TLC to hire trustworthy people. We have to hope there is someone somewhere who had no CA or finds a loophole. OR wait for the kids to write.

Unfortunately no matter how bad Kate may treat her kids, they may always love and support her and not turn on her. I know a family with 5 kids, whose parents drank heavily-drunk before noon. They lived in broken down mobile homes with no water or electric, no good nutrition, medical care etc. They had a hole in ceiling of one, fell asleep with cigs. Horrible life. They are grown now but I saw the other day that they are heartbroken that the 'daddy they love' has cancer.
