Mady and Cara to travel with Kate on Cruise

Looks like Kate has resorted to using her own children to try to get people to book a spot on August's celebrity cruise on Royal Caribbean. After weeks of begging people to sign up, even adding "morning runs" with Kate to the itinerary, she's finally tweeted this:

 Kate Gosselin 

Yep. It's true! Mady and Cara are sailing too! Can't wait to have a big girls week with our fans! Join US! 



Will the children have obligations to the fans too, or do they get to just be kids?

Auntie Anne,

I forgot to commend you on the other thread about your post with Steves's accent.I laughed so hard when I read that- you have a gift! Are you sure you're not from there; it was so natural sounding? ha ha, LOl....

Pity Party said...

Judges err to the mom, always, it is human nature. Sadly a mom would just about have to be on the brink of homelessness due to proven heavy drug usage to change any one particular judge's mind in that regard. There are some who are fair minded and make good decisions with regard to children and some may get lucky to have a judge such as that. Others not so much.

My understanding of child support is that one cannot say you don't have to pay this month. The money is paid to child support enforcement and they send it to the parent. Any missed payment puts the account into arrears and you cannot catch up, as interest is added, and then you are paying interest on interest. I hope Jon never takes that bait if it is offered to him.

I stand by my belief that the girls just simply told him they really wanted to go and to please let them. KT may have given some reassurances with regard to how things would be handled on board, but once you are at sea...

The cruise is actually pretty mild compared to the other things she has put them through. It just appears to be their lot in life and life happens like that sometimes. Sad but true.

hey jude said...

I would love to see Kate up on one of those dunk tank things as an added attraction on the cruise. Just throw a ball and she gets dunked ;I could do that all day.Wouln't that be fun?

Ex -nurse. please stay. Things will return to be more normal soon and I enjoy your posts.

Ex-nurse, I do enjoy your posts as well. I was very confused by your post slamming another poster, it just seemed to come out of nowhere (since I don't follow Preesi or twitter). I appreciate that you took the time to apologize.

Aeduko, I sometimes feel as if my posts get passed by. But, overall, I feel "heard" by the ability to post my thought(s) here. If someone notices or acknowledges, I feel that is a bonus. While I read here often, I don't always have time to post. And if I have read comments that span to a next page and want to respond to several at once, I may very well miss a shout out or affirmation to someone from the previous page.

She is a Cow said...

Slow days lately in Kate's world. That is a good thing! I have to laugh at her comments on the RW article. Maybe that is why she was so quiet yesterday.

Anyway, I have to say, I visit this blog almost daily and it always brings a smile to my face.

NLAN - I have always enjoyed your posts

Katie CRY-DUH - Please don't go. I LOL at most of your posts.

Dwindle - I miss your posts! :)

I think everyone's opinion is welcome. I'd like to respond to half the posts I read, but then I would be on the computer all day....much like Kate on her twitter. It just can't happen.

Once a Viewer said...

I'm pretty new to posting here although I have read this blog for a while..I think sometimes a poster is typing a comment at the same time as another and then the conversation changes gear so the first post maybe 'lost.' People may read it but reply to the latest comment instead. I don't fret if I don't get a response...what I have to say is not monumental, but I can see both sides...please, everyone stay, and let's peacefully co-exist.

tate said...

All of the little inspirational sayings Kate is posting---is she trying to market herself as a motivational speaker? Ha!

So many negative comments on the RW site regarding her "article".

She's probably miffed that she isn't in Indianapolis as part of the Super Bowl festivities. Lots of parties and celebs there. She probably tried to grift a trip there and it didn't pan out.

Once a Viewer said...

I was reading another article where there was a link to an older Kate piece- about giving the twins protein shakes for breakfast & why that's not a good idea..AND she was quoted as saying she has skim milk in her coffee- no coffemate !! Caught!!

silimom said...

Okay, THIS is what I'm talking about. Radar suddenly has a photo of Jon getting "cozy" with some new girl in a bar, but there's nothing about Kate and Steve?

Sigh. I give up.

AMD said...

One of the young actors from Home Improvement was arrested on alleged DUI charges.
"In 2001, he sued his parents over the money he made as a minor, alleging they were squandering his trust fund."
What lies ahead for Kate (times 8)?

Layla said...

I hope there are picture from the cruise. I picture Kate in her hooker heels and mini skirts surrounded by women in pastel applique t-shirts, shorts with elastic waistbands, crocs, and those funky-looking sun visors. She'll be baring her teeth in an attempts to keep herself from screaming...oh, yeah. Bring 'em on.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Oh my gosh I remember that Home Improvement kid suing his parents. I think he even did a Dateline interview or something. I'll try to find it. Poor guy.

Although DUI is a little misleading. It was marijuana. Every 27 year old actor in LA is doing marijuana. They get over it in a few years. Unlike an alcohol addiction, if you want to stop, for most people they can just stop. Still, never good to drive with that or get arrested. If you must, just do it in your bedroom!

The cause of death for Aaron Carter's sister appears to be prescription drugs, though not confirmed.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Well, lookie here:

"At age 18, he got a hold of his million dollar trust fund! He accused his parents for squandering his money on a mansion."

I can't wait until these Gosselins are 18. I can't wait.

I realize that, but I think most people, if not almost all people, who hear DUI think alcohol because most of the time, it's alcohol.

It could also be prescription drugs or marijuana or meth or what have you, but that's not what people think when someone says, I got a DUI.

I don't think the kid should be thought an alcoholic when he is not. Just don't want people thinking that about the guy.

Anonymous said...

I am posting as anonymous because I'm not sure how to post with a name. I am new to blog posting, but I will sign with a name at the bottom of my post.

I just wanted to say that I worry about the kids. They always seem so sad, especially when they are with Kate. (Which is understandable!) But when they are with pictured with Jon they usually seem happy. Did anyone notice the latest pics of Jon picking them up from the bus stop on INF daily? They still seemed SO sad. I didn't see the big smiling faces and the running to meet their dad that I ususally see. Maybe they were just tired after a long day at school, but for some reason those pictures spoke volumes to me about how those children are feeling.

This is only my second time posting here (or anywhere for that matter-HA), so I will use the same name as I did the first time because I never fail to be....

Shocked

Anonymous said...

Just because people are ignorant of what the term means does not make it misleading to say that the guy was arrested for DUI when in fact he was.

Yes, far better to think of him as a pothead than an alcoholic. LOL. I would not assume that someone is an alcoholic because they were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. I would, however, safely assume that the person is incredibly irresponsible. Same goes for driving impaired while high.

Most people drink who are not alcoholics. Most people who smoke dope are not marijuana addicts. A percentage of both are addicted, despite your misguided belief to the contrary.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Anonymous, why are you picking a fight? Maybe misleading was the wrong word, sheesh. I'm just clarifying it was pot, that's all. Many people have different opinions about pot than alcohol. Some don't. Whatever, I don't think either one is good to drive with.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Actually for a great number of the medical community, that's exactly right. Others in the medical community disagree. There is no agreement on this, so, move on.

Dallas Lady said...

Does anyone else get the feeling she's trying harder than ever to be super syrupy sweet in her tweets lately? It's like you can almost feel the physical pain it must put her in to put on such an act, even in print. I guess it's all about the cruise.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I don't know if this has been posted yet (I'm behind) but Madonna was on Anderson Cooper today. Someone in the audience asked her what she thought about the reality stars of today. She was very polite but said that they have no talent or art to give and have not had to work hard for being famous. She said "you can get in the door but that doesn't mean you'll stay in the room". Hear that, Kate??

&&&&

The older Madonna gets the more I love her. She's sort of like the same person only looks more mature. I love the stuff that woman blurts out. She's sort of at the age where I can see her kids being like, Oh Mom please don't say THAT. lol.

There was a pretty off the hook interview with Wa-wa the other week where she was just kind of going off a bit about Lady Gaga copying her--and yet at the same time you could tell she was flattered.

Here's the full episode if you're interested: http://abc.go.com/watch/2020/SH559026/VD55163327/2020-113-madonna-and-new-sex

Yes, and the travel agent has been tweeting on a daily basis. Desperation. I bet after this cruise, Kate ignores all of them. This is her last hoorah.

Hi Shocked,

Rolling out the official welcome wagon. Your observations about the kids are spot on. I fear they are in for a world of hurt and pain in the coming years. It is very sad.

Mel said...

I have to admit that I always thought DUI was an alchohol related offense. Although I guess it makes sense for driving while high.

I thought driving while high was called something else. Lke what....I don't know.... :-)

fidosmommy said...

DUI simply means "Driving Under the Influence". It doesn't say of what.

It used to be called DWI - Driving While Intoxicated", which was almost always alcohol related.

In some states it is now OWI - Operating While Influenced, and includes riding a bike, piloting a boat on the lake, etc. under any kind of substance that clouds judgment while you are operating something.

Gosh. I'm so dumb. I had noticed a change in terminology from DWI to DUI, but never gave it any thought.

Ex Nurse said...

Since Kate hasn't named who she is donating 100% of her proceeds from the cruise (like all celebrity cruise),I suggest Berk's County Special Olympics! Right in your neck of the woods. Since you are now so anxious to meet your neighbors, you could sponsor one of the track events. Maybe they would even let you run with torch, since you are the specialist of them all!

Seriously, It is a great organization--all events are free for the participants and families. I know...I am such an optimist! Kate will change and get back with Jon and she will donate time and money to a good cause and there will be peace and no hunger and cats and dogs will live together in harmony....

Grifter Overboard said...

Kate's busy tweeting...

@Paige_Kate8fan play your bestest... You'll never get another chance at this particular tournament! :)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Bestest? How immature is that? Sheesh!

LaLaLandNoMore said...

I, too, saw the grainy pics of Jon at a bar with a new young woman on Radar. Why, oh why, don't they leave him alone? Snarky about Jon moving on with his life, but constantly giving Kate a break where she and her "bodyguard/travel companion" are concerned. Someone is still paying for a better image of Kate. Who that is remains the question.

Gift of grab said...

Ex-Nurse, the Berks Special Olympics is the charity which that radio person on Twitter was trying to get Kate involved in--they are doing a 5K run some time soon, and she has tweeted Kate numerous times. Kate told her to send an e-mail, and after that, crickets.

As far as Kate's recent "generosity" to fans on Twitter, this is all she's really got left. She went to Hollywood a couple of weeks ago. Her interview with Extra didn't see the light of day--not even on their web site (and I think that is a HUGE diss). Dr. Drew is supposedly scheduled for Feb. 22, but who knows how much of that will be broadcast given that so much has already been made available online. Then there is that web interview (and also, possibly, a blog post) with Diane Mizota. I think Diane said this would be out in March, but who knows whether it will actually happen? Isn't part of the point of web interviews that they can be up and running pretty much immediately? Is anything going to be fresher or more newsworthy two months after the fact? Finally, the RW article. Could she have sounded any more fatuous? She prides herself on being a writer, on being fastidious about language--and she came off sounding like a teenager who has a solid D average in language arts. And based on the comments, it doesn't sound like this article won her (or the magazine) any new fans.

If Kate can't manage to sell the cruise, then outside of the above almost-humiliating activities, there is only the promise of another marathon, date and location as yet unknown. Kate knows that her only hope of relevancy (and it seems pretty faint at that) for the moment is trying to drum up more hard-core and vocal supporters on Twitter. I think she's trying quite hard to sell this motivational Mommy-Athlete persona, but since she's not especially believable in either role, I don't think there will be a TV angle in that for her. Of course, I guess she still has CouponCabin, but they don't seem to mention her much anymore. And her posts for them are very matter-of-fact in tone these days, not overflowing with her initial breathless enthusiasm. Her own blog posts are coming maybe once a week, and we all know how interesting those are (not).

I don't by any means count her out at this point, but I think she's about as far down as we've ever seen her in terms of her "star" trajectory. If she does have anything else up her sleeve, I imagine we'll be seeing it soon. She can't go too long without giving us something to talk about.

I've often wondered why people who read or post here haven't done some low level reconnaissance.

I mean, there is no one from Steve and Gina's neck of the woods that reads and posts here that can confirm whether they see Steve hanging around Potomac, Maryland?
************
Sili,
That's my neck of the woods (although I have heard Steve and Gina are either from North Potomac or Gaithersburg), and NOBODY sees him around here. I have heard of sightings of Gina, but not a word about Steve. His business is supposedly based in Bethesda, which is nearby, but I've never heard of any sightings of him there, either. I wouldn't want to do any recon--Gina and her kids deserve their privacy--but it's curious that he just seems to be a ghost, both here and in the Wernersville area. Where does he go when he's not with Kate? I guess he can hide out at her house, but he would have to go out sometime, wouldn't he? Very strange.

Cs said...

Is anyone else curious as to why, all of a sudden, Jon is in the media again? Someone is contacting Radar online to alert them of Jon's activities. I can't help but wonder why? Really, who cares if he is picking up the children at the bus stop, going out for a few cocktails, and who he is with? Jon is about as relevant as Kate is at this point. Exactly, what is the purpose? They are BOTH, washed up TV reality personalities! What are your opinions?

Fleecing The Sheeple said...

I just can't understand sheeple logic, or lack of it. Why does Kate attract these people? Same intelligence level, maybe? Are they all stupid? Is there a sane one in the bunch? A new one joined the flock, got belligerent and claimed her husband is a NYC cop and she was reporting the haters to him. Just joined last night, and now on Twitter she has the best friends ever. These "friends" are total internet strangers, who historically have proven themselves obsessed and more than a bit "off" --

@ICYou1 this is so true! We are all here to stay and Iam happy to gain the best friends ever

Cs,
Agreed, I don't get why he is in the news.

I am glad Madonna addressed the lady Gaga tidbit- It was driving me crazy (not in a bad way) how Lady Gaga is a recycled Madonna - guess that shows my age. Nothing about her is original- just Madonna repackaged for a new generation. I made my daughter go watch some videos so she could see for herself and she laughed at the similarity. Not knocking Lady Gaga- am a fan, but then I am a Madonna fan.

Those stories about childhood stars/celebrities are very interesting. I definitely feel it's a foreshadow of what's to come.

I don't see the point in promising the kids they get to go on the cruise, when in reality they might not. I hope Kate didn't fill their heads with how wonderful it will be if in reality they don't actually get to go.

Looks like Jon is getting warmed up to resume his career, right where he left off when TLC shut him down. Let's see --maybe he is auditioning for Celebrity Ex-Reality Show Divorced Dads Who Can't Stay Away From Young Women. On TLC, of course!

What's good for the goose is good for the gander (wow--this saying must have been written with Kate an Jon in mind). If he is this stupid....fair game!

Oh well--My faith in people has been shattered....Again

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I don't see a conspiracy here. It's pretty basic tabloid journalism. Jon broke up with his gf. There's a few bucks to be made on catching him with another girl or even Kate. As simple as that.

silimom said...

Great article on CNN re: the 50th annuversary of "To Kill A Mockingbird". An interesting quote from the director as to why he cast unknowns in the parts of Jem and Scout:

"Mulligan stated that he specifically did not wish to work with Hollywood actors because he believed they lose their sense of childhood at around age 8."

It's bad enough we live in a society where children are exposed to more adult content, whether it be language, violence or sex, earlier and earlier but how much more so for these kids who work in entertainment? And that includes kids in reality television, perhaps even more so, because people treat it as "harmless". After all, they're just playing and living their lives and the cameras just happen to be there, isn't that right Kate? Why on earth do they need protection? I mean, mom's on set...oh, wait, she's in her room which no one can enter under penalty of severeness. Oh that's okay, Kate won't care if we film the kids going to the bathroom.

Sorry, just tired and in a ranty mood I guess.

I agree, Admin. Someone in the bar saw him and figured he/she could make a few bucks selling the story to Radar. As a beautiful song says folks, "let it be."

Pity Party said...

I looked at that picture and I am not sure I would call it cozy. The age of cell phone journalism anyone take a pic and put spin their own spin on it and make a couple of bucks on ROL. You kind of have to sit close to talk with someone in a bar. It could be someone he works with who knows. But I do wish he would stay out of bars at least for now, and let the break up pass him by. It doesn't look good any way you cut it, but it doesn't mean he is a bad dad or a bad person. Fancy restaurants sell liquor, too, and we know who frequents them often.

Reality Bites said...

Sure seems like Jon wouldn't want to be seen in public not to mention the tabloids chasing chicks if there wasn't something in it for him and by proxy his humiliated, poor ex-wife Kate Gosselin. It worked once right? And let's face it, Kate Gosselin can't really make it on her own. She needs the drama. Out trots a newly single Jon Gosselin. Ka Ching!

Amy2 said...

Look at the timing of Jon's pic. Breaks up w/GF, has lunch with Kate (not confirmed), then up comes the pic. As has been discussed before it appears (allegedly) Kate had an arrangement with Chris the pap boy to meet, have her pic taken and then it appears in a tabloid. Kate makes money off the picture. Could this be something Jon learned how to do when he met with Kate? I know this sounds far fetched but the whole ongoing soap opera just seems unbelieveable to me.

Well, I'm convinced the two are more than business associates. He's the guy who shares an RV with Kate while the rest of the crew are in their own. They seem to go away together whenever she leaves town, they've been spotted having cozy little dinners in several places, he escorts her to photoshoots in Mexico, he took Kate to meet his parents in NZ and even though Jon wasn't exactly sure his wife was humping the bodyguard, he suspected it. I think we can safely say Kate and Steve's not-an-affair was a contributing factor in the Gosselin's divorce. That's enough for me. :o)

So Jon was seen with a woman. Big deal. Oh, the horror he may have been on a date. The guy is single, what is the big deal?

Since Kate ran a marathon (yeah right), I guess we could call her an athletic supporter. *snicker*

So why didn't he reel in the paps and get paid for photos when he was with Ellen? He could have been flirting with the media for the past two years but wanted his privacy.

Warmth Of The Sun said...

Nurse said, "What's good for the goose is good for the gander (wow--this saying must have been written with Kate an Jon in mind). If he is this stupid....fair game!"

________________________

So he went on a date and he's being accused of being in it for the money? It looks to me like he was at the bar in Reading, someone saw him, either called a photographer or took the pictures themselves and figured someone would be willing to cough up a few dollars for a shot. And this leads others to believe that he's now a money-grubbing former reality star celebrity who is getting back into the business of chasing fame again?

I don't think so. That's really stretching it...

Annie2 said...

The picture at the bar looks like it was taken with someones cellphone. The paps know that people hate Jon. It is be evident by what some people are posting here. They are not above selling photos like that to make money. For all we know, the women in the photo could have been a close friend. I have many close friends who are male. I even meet them at the bar from time to time.

There were photos of Jon and Ellen published too. You can only publish so many photos of them before people loose interest.

Dallas Lady said...

I don't get all these conspiracy theories about Jon. He and his girlfriend of two years broke up: happens all the time. He's in a bar with some woman: so? Isn't he single? Is he supposed to never go out again?

Again, I'm just not getting this discussion. Like admin said, I think some SLIGHT interest was generated by his recent breakup and that's it. Keep in mind, it's one grainy pic on Radar Online. Big deal. For most people, he's so far off the radar it's ridiculous.

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

IMO, Radaronline must think that people are interested in what a adult, divorced father does...

My own humble observation is that I've have heard & seen enough of this family to say that they are greedy, odd, and worthless to mankind.

They are just a societal missing link that serves no purpose to anyone but themselves.

Too bad (and sad) that kids are involved in this mess.

What are the Gosselin P.R. people to do when their client(s) are sliding into oblivion- one foot on a banana peel, and the another foot on a skateboard?

Either way, khate is no doubt super pissed about the recent photos of Jon. He's getting the attention she craves for herself while she gets nothing. Any pics of her out at all in the past month? Jon does nothing to court the media, and poof, photos anyway.

Reality TV alum Jon Gosselin was seen picking up his eight kids - 11-year-old twins Cara and Mady and 7-year-old sextuplets Aaden, Collin, Joel, Leah, Alexis, and Hannah - from the school bus in West Reading Penn. on Friday (January 27). Earlier that same day Jon confirmed via Twitter that he split with girlfriend Ellen Ross. “Recently, after much thought and discussion, Ellen and I have decided to end our relationship," Jon wrote. "It was a mutual decision and we are both happy and remain best friends.” Reportedly, they broke up because of the kids. "Jon is focusing on his eight kids and building his life and career to support them," a source said. "Jon spends more time than ever—since the divorce—and it wasn't fair to Ellen."
The kids' mother is Jon's ex-wife and former reality TV costar, Kate Gosselin.

Jumping In said...

I don't think Kate is looking at this cruise as part of her career strategy whatsoever. This is a freebie, a good grift, a travel grift, her favourite! Nope, whether it is 100 of her followers or 10 going, Kate will do what she has to do, and NOT one thing more as described by Alice Travel.

I do not know who pitched this cruise idea, but I do feel the first line of any contract Kate has with them states she goes, regardless of the numbers signed-up. Kate will not be denied.

Throwing Cara and Mady in was likely thought up by Alice Travel with the hope of getting more sales going. We all know Kate prefers a clean break from ALL of her children when she is 'working' to support them as their single, struggling mother.

Before Alice Travel was either sold this cruise idea, or dreamt is up themselves, obviously they believed they had a winner here. What someone failed to consider was, when hooking up with a 'TV personality', it had better be someone people actually like. Did they overlook the fact that Kate's show had been cancelled due to failing numbers? First hint.

So, the burning question remains, who would pay
big bucks to be around someone clinging desperately to the last fraying threads of fame? Yep, apparently a handful of sheeple will!

Ex Nurse, if you're not comfortable, I totally understand. No pressure. I won't be back there until late February at the earliest anyway. For what it's worth, my hubby doesn't want to hear about it anymore either, which is also why I read here.

Interesting article:

Why Americans are willing to do terrible things to be famous by Dr. Keith Ablow

http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012/02/03/why-americans-are-willing-to-do-terrible-things-to-be-famous/

[excerpt]

Being “famous”—a part of the show, if you will—is now what millions upon millions of people care about, and they’ll do what they have to do to satisfy themselves—in whatever bizarre or anemic ways they deem acceptable—that they are on the road there.

I have been warning about this trend as the single, greatest threat to our culture for years. It is a true scourge. It is a psychological epidemic that is virulent beyond any known before. It is more ominous to us as a population than cancer or AIDS. Because a narcissistic people lost in the pursuit of something as vanishing as notoriety is a people who cannot summon real character, nor empathize with one another, nor pursue momentous deeds, nor achieve genuine greatness.

Marie said...

So, after (and if) this cruse goes, what does Kate have? She still has no actual job. I don't know, can you or do people make good money from blogging? What other prospects does she have?

CC, does not appear to be well known. Most people tend to get daily coupons from the mail or the newspaper or look for 1/2 off prices or already buy in bulk. What advice is Kate going to have long-term? No much I shouldn't think.

Her not looking for job tells me a lot. Sure she can renew her nursing license all she wants but it doesn't really mean anything if it's not used. I mean not even looking for a job that will tide her over, a better job one that will bring in better (or) benefits, insurance coverage and all. I doubt a blogging job will give anybody that peace of mind.

Frustrates me to think someone is that lazy. I've been working, mostly odd jobs since I was 12 years old, and now that I'm older I work a part-time job. I've never had to go without the money to pay bills or something I've really wanted as long as I've earned it. What exactly is her problem? She is going to be in a world of hurt if CC decides to dump her with no formal notice like TLC did. Then what? If she's so can-do how will she do when the rug is pulled out from under her and she has nothing lined up?

Maybe it's just me but I'm mind-boggled.

anger issues kate said...

So Jon was seen with another woman, BIG DEAL. Sheeple, move on! Jon is a human being who made mistakes 3 years ago, he has since cleaned up his act, and is NOT chasing fame, pays his child support, sees his kids(which is a heck of a lot more than some dads do) and earns a honest living, like the rest of us mediocre people, who don't go chasing fame. If Kate is jealous of Jon, for moving on: Kate get over it! If your jealous Kate cause Jon can find someone else, take the stick out of your ass, it might make you a more nicer person. As for calling Jon a douch bag, shame on the lot of you! Jon IS entitle to have some companionship, happiness(which he never got from Kate or companionship)The only thing he got from Kate, was 8 beautiful children, a wife who belittled him to at least average about 5 million viewers, made him feel less than a man, would not get help to save the marriage, and still uses her kids for self gain. I have no problem with Jon hooking up with someone else. We all know what those sheeple and devote fans will say, and it is OLD, get over it Jon has.

Ex Nurse said...

Ex Nurse Said...
Looks like Jon is getting warmed up to resume his career, right where he left off when TLC shut him down. Let's see --maybe he is auditioning for Celebrity Ex-Reality Show Divorced Dads Who Can't Stay Away From Young Women. On TLC, of course!

What's good for the goose is good for the gander (wow--this saying must have been written with Kate an Jon in mind). If he is this stupid....fair game!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Sorry, I wasn't clear that I was writing a fake tabloid story. I copy posts in and left off a line. What I meant by "What's good for the goose is good for the gander" is that any public display of questionable behavior makes him fair game for the tabloids. He made the mistake of using them for gain and it has backfired on him. 

Jon is, at least, guilty of bad judgement by essentially staging a rerun from his bad boy days--beginning with  his 'private' twitter announcement. It's really hard to defend the guy and I appreciate that some people here really support him. I just think that both Jon and Kate are not mature enough to put their kids first---especially when they are still so young. Will we be hearing a reprisal of his 2009 hit song "That Girl At Legends Was Just  A Friend" ? Time will tell what his intentions for his future are. 

As always, 8 innocent lives hang in the balance.

fidosmommy said...

I could not care less where Jon Gosselin goes as long as it does not have a negative impact on his children.

Is he missing out on time with his children by being in that bar? Is he cheating on someone they love? Is he spending their money on beer? Is he going to drive drunk
or get into a barroom brawl?

Those are the things I care about, not that he is simply in a bar talking to someone.
For now, I'm going to assume the answer to all these questions is No.

anger issues kate said...

Amy2: I think you are going in the right direction: But I think Kate calls the paps, so as to keep herself in the media, then tells the pap to follow Jon and take pics and share the money. How else does this pap know where Jon is, if Kate did not call him, just as how does that pap know where Kate is? Kate is not a famous celeb, she lives in the middle of farm country, in the middle of nowhere, most paps, go to LA or NYC to catch celebs, not their hometowns. Kate must be making money with this celeb. Kate sells out her kids, so why not Jon too(without his permission). But Kate fans and some of the media twist it so it looks like Jon is fame whoring again, when he is not. When Jon makes a statement, it is done, he does not go on every talk show that will have him and talk about it. Like Kate does.

anger issue skate said...

That line should read Kate makes money with the pap(not celeb). I also notice that kate has not been tweeting much. But when she does, she is sooo tired. Poor baby!

Marie said...

@anger issues,

I guess the sheeple are perfect, just like Kate, huh? I mean they bash Jon relentlessly for almost anything just because he made mistakes. Oh, he's put on weight, oh he is the one who doesn't want to see the kids, oh he is just stupid, we should hate him because he got divorced, had a few dates.

How can they hate on one person for human faults when Kate is so open about her own?

Out And About In Berks County PA said...

How else does this pap know where Jon is, if Kate did not call him, just as how does that pap know where Kate is?

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

Why does it have to be a pap? The city of Reading is not out in the boonies in the middle of a cornfield. There are restaurants, bars, entertainment. It could very well be that this was a random person who recognized him and shot a photo on his cell phone.

anger issues kate said...

Marie: exactly! I do think the sheeple and devotees, had Jon & Kate and the 8 as their ideal, of a perfect family. Super mom Kate, follower/slave Jon, 8 doll like children, living in a dollhouse. Where everything is perfect. Traveling, having things, like most fantasy stories. Then Jon wanted the show to stop, TLC made Kate into a monster, Jon woke up, the kids are getting older, and the whole perfect family fell apart. So they blame Jon, for all of it. They can't see the trees, just the forest.

Cause Kate knows, that if Jon or the kids, get in the media, then Kate will get the poor mom of 8 crap. And then people will go to her web-site or twitter to see if she response to the news. Giving her publicity(good or bad, Kate does not care, just as long as she stays in the news). Cause everytime Jon makes the news, they mention Kate. Kate is twisted.

fidosmommy said...

Could someone refresh my memory, please?
I don't recall where anyone got the idea that Kate and Jon share pap money.

Tamara said...

Jon did up his moron-score by announcing his break-up with Ellen on twitter. What does putting that info out their publicly (and don't bother with the it's a private account argument because it obviously isn't) do for him or, more importantly, his children? Wrong move Jono.

Stupid Is said...

If Jon didn't announce it and he was seen out he'd be slammed for cheating (again). I actually think they broke up a bit before his announcement.

Tamara said...

Jon should have learned by now that you can't turn on and off press attention whenever you want to fit your designs. I'd have hoped he's learned that hard lesson by now. If not, read up on Diana Princess of Wales for a warning, or Michelle Williams and the Obamas for inspiration.

&&&&&&&&&&
It is just my opinion that he shows bad judgement. I gave my reason already in the post you were responding to: Jon is, at least, guilty of bad judgement by essentially staging a rerun from his bad boy days. My opinion-- apparently, not everyone shares it. Please see the second to last paragraph.

Back to our regularly scheduled program...

The actor from Home Improvements that was arrested for DUI is one more on the list of child stars that continue to make news, although their glory days of fame are in the past. May be a substance abuse problem, may be, as admin described,  normal usage that will fade with time. unlike the G8, he was famous for playing a character in a fictional family. How much worse will public scrutiny be for the kids when they make mistakes?

I am haunted by the question that Nina Frye posed on the show when she withdrew her support of Kate. (Thanks to whoever gave that link) asked, "What is the risk of stopping?" The answer, as we all know, is Nothing--only the loss of fame and an empty lifestyle for their talentless, succubus, fame whore mother.  Paul Peterson has described the importance of private moments and it is chilling to consider how many of the thousands of moments that make up the 'seasons' of these children's lives have been lost.  Yet, Kate was willing to go into that uncharted territories and that stupid show had to be pried from her cold, dead hands.

I give Jon enormous credit for advocating for getting the kids off the show. 
 At least one parent is on the record as acting in the best interests of his children.

 Sorry, can't find the link to the Nina Frye show. It was in late December 2009 or early January 2010. Show is called Living the dream and it is somewhere on the toginet.com website

I think that picture of Jon with the new lady friend was taken with a cell phone. It doesn't look too professional to me.

Also, the issue of 'kart-pap-Jon-share-money' is that kart calls the pap, and KART and PAP might share money for the picture if it sells.

kart wouldn't share anything with Jon. She wouldn't spit on him if he was on fire....

Amy2 said...

Fidosmommy,
I am only speculating that Jon & Kate share the pap money. I have no clue if they do or don't.

Brings to mind was the pic of Jon random or a pap who knew where Jon was going to be. And the who calls Chris (Mr. Pap) is Kate so she has her picture taken for the tabs. Could Kate have done the same thing on Jon? That is called Chris to alert him where Jon was going to be based on their (rumored/not confirmed) lunch together?

Out And About In Berks County PA said...

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

I know exactly where Kate lives. I pass by there several times a week. I thought you were referring to the location where the photo was taken - that nobody would be there to take a photo because it's in the middle of farm country. I misunderstood.

I still believe that the photo was taken by a random person on a cell phone - not by a professional pap who was called by Kate or Jon to do so. If a pap took it, he needs to invest in better camera equipment.

Pity Party said...

I guess I see things differently, but I don't think KT would as we say in the country "pick Jon up off the side of the road," much less share even one thin dime with him. She only thinks about herself and does not come across as a giving person. How quickly one forgets how well Jon took care of her, the house, and the kids for what 9 or 10 years and most importantly, how much the kids love him. He bonded with the kids from day one - she by her own admission had a hard time doing so.

Fleecing The Sheeple said... 43

I just can't understand sheeple logic, or lack of it. Why does Kate attract these people? Same intelligence level, maybe? Are they all stupid? Is there a sane one in the bunch?
_____________________

Hi Fleecing. This has been a question we have all asked. I think it comes down to the simple fact that they are very much like Kate; they not only identify with her behavior, but they believe it to be acceptable - even appealing.

There was a very interesting psychology article in Scientific American about why people deify their heroes and refuse to think badly of them. The article was specifically about Joe Paterno and the Penn State students who rioted to defend "a man who knew about an allegedly horrific case of child abuse and did very little to try to stop it." It stated:

"Psychologists have long studied the mentality of group membership, and their research helps explain why all of us have a tendency to stick up for our idols and leaders even in the face of serious wrongdoing.

"According to psychological theory, every person has a social identity, which depends on being a member of various groups. 'The social groups you belong to become a part of the very essence of who you feel you are,' explains psychologist Adam Galinsky, a professor at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. These groups can include our families and circles of friends; the clubs, churches and schools we attend; our race, ethnicity and nationality; and the list goes on. The more strongly we identify with a particular group, the more vehemently we defend its members and ideals — a trait that experts think evolved along with early human society. Banding together and protecting one another allowed our ancestors to survive, and so to this day we are quick to cheer on our comrades and feel animosity toward rival groups. Many scientists think this in-group psychology explains prejudice, racism and even sports fandom."

NE Psychologist could probably speak to this phenomenon more specifically and with more clarity.

i agree with Stupid Is - 87. Jon tweeted his followers about his breakup to avoid a scandal if he was "gasp" seen with someone else.

He goes to a bar, maybe with someone - a co worker? friend? date? Maybe it's someone he met there? (Don't start. I met my S.O. of 23 years in a bar).

Sure enough someone photographs them and ROL makes it a story.

Kate continues to use her children as commodities but Jon is getting ragged on?

I don't get it.

Those sheeple really are stupid, aren't they? For them, it's all about Kate. Kate, Kate and Kate. It doesn't matter to them that she worked those kids, spends their money, and is nothing now without them. You just have to wonder about the intelligence level of the sheeple. It's as though they have no reasoning ability whatsoever. The kids gave up so much of their childhood, were put on display like circus animals, suffered through a divorce because she wanted fame and the lifestyle of the rich and famous. Sheeple think everything is fine and dandy with that because the end justifies the means. Money equals happiness.

Bottom line is that they are jealous of Kate. They want what she has and would do it at any cost. Because they can't be her, they live THROUGH her. The tweets tonight just confirm it.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I don't really have a problem with Jon's statement about Ellen breaking up. Lots of celebs do this to stop the rumors and prevent endless speculation. If he didn't and was seen talking to other women without Ellen there, even more internet blah-blahing and tabloid yada yada would go on. Personally I find it rather mature and respectful to make a clean, concise statement about it in an effort to shut down the talk so Ellen can move on. I see nothing media whorish about it--in fact, it seems to me this is an attempt to STOP the media from going on a rampage of speculation.

Two years of laying low and focusing on work, healthy relationships, co-parenting and the kids is enough proof for me. I understand others feel more wary.

People who want to live a private life don't announce the status of their romantic relationships on twitter. It just gives tacit permission to the tabloids, sheeple and everyone else to discuss your life. Yeah, it might suck when/if a few people accuse you of cheating or threesomes or whatever after you are seen in a bar with a woman, but that's the leftovers from the years you actively courted attention. Telling the world, via twitter, blog, or People magazine, about your personal life just keeps those leftovers warm.

Yes, they do -- if they would be media fodder because of the break-up, then they would want to nip the rumors in the bud before they even begin.

The tabloids, the sheeple and everyone else don't need permission to discuss it. The "did they or didn't they break up?" rumors would have run wild for a long time, especially if Jon would have been seen in the company of another woman. Actually, he was one "up" on them this time and beat them to it.

We can add these two recent incidents to the untold tally of under-reported rapes, thefts, assaults and other crimes aboard these lawless floating cities whose owners answer to no one.

I still don't get the pouncing on Jon for daring to be out in public with a (gasp!) woman. Is he supposed to move to a monastery?

But it seems people have moved on, so I will, too. Just scratching my head at that.

January 2012 - Spotlight on Cruise Ship Dangers - Do You Trust Cruise Lines and Travel Agents?
http://www.cruiselawnews.com/articles/roundup/

I hope that Kate reads this and decides to leave ALL of the children at home. Oh, that's right, Kate doesn't read.

I have been on many cruises with Royal Caribbean over the past few years. I think that I will stay on land in the future.

Marie said...

Somehow I'm not sold on the fact that Kate "loves," and or that ALL of her what, 74,000 followers tweet her let alone are true fans.

Kate is boastful and when you are boastful, at least I think, people tend to see right through you.

Kate's an attention seeker. Probably always has been and always will be. I'll just be happy if she gets no more "interview."

No, I didn't know Milo had been outed. I don't go look for this person and I don't read every response here. I'm still a tad uncomfortable with the fact that a grown woman spends so much time demanding to talk to another grown woman who whines just as much. I hope that came out correctly as it did in my head...

Point being Kate spends a little too much time talking to certain posters, Paige, Milo are the only two I can name right now off hand. And since she tweets pretty much all day or not at all begs the question to me: What exactly does she do all day?

hey jude said...

I think that Kate really does think these fans adore her and hang on her every word. I don't know Auntie Anne how she will say GN on the cruise. Maybe, Mr. Captain man will let her say something ,after they finish their dinner at his Captains' table.

Kate has never been on a cruise, has she, and probably she thinks it's like the Love Boat, all the special(rich) people will want to dine with her and Skeeve-o and the Captain. I wonder where Mary Ann and the skipper will sit?

Kate has no idea these sheeple would walk right over her in their stillettos, if they got the chance; they are totally jealous of her and want what she thinks she has. I would be afraid if 70 some thousand people were following my every word and action- yikes!

She should be able to hide from the few sheeple who actually make the cruise; Skeeve will do his super-sleuthing guarding of the princess and her peas, so no worries. I wonder how many skanky, cruise- ho ball gowns she grifted to wear while at sea? OMG, I have to quit this, on the grounds that I am nauseating myself....

Happy sailing, all.GN!

Tamara said...

Yes, they do -- if they would be media fodder because of the break-up, then they would want to nip the rumors in the bud before they even begin. The tabloids, the steeple and everyone else don't need permission to discuss it. The "did they or didn't they break up?" rumors would have run wild for a long time, especially if Jon would have been seen in the company of another woman. Actually, he was one "up" on them this time and beat them to it.
------------
My point being that if he didn't make his personal life public the attention paid to it would be much smaller, and he would actually have a leg to stand on when it comes to asking the press and strangers to leave he and his children alone. A lot of people congratulated him for not speaking out while Kate and the press were throwing him under the bus day after day, but by putting out what was essentially a press release he is undermining his previous discretion. Which, as all should know, is the better part of valor.

I just think he is going to regret opening that door again and letting the ghouls in.

Great Expectations said...

Marie - I don't think she tweets pretty much all day, does she? I've seen her tweet in the mornings, and at night when the sheeple gather for her words of wisdom and their goodnight kisses.

Tamara said...

Does anyone think Kate would ever try to get Jon back? If Steve leaves I think she would be desperate for a man. Or really a MANager, which is what Steve-o is imo. She obviously can't run her life or go anywhere without another adult there. And I wonder if she might come to believe that a reunion and remarriage to Jon would get her back on TV. If her narcissism would allow that.

I'm scratching right along with you, Dallas.

hey jude said...

Joining the scratching my head group, too. Jon can't go for a drink with a woman, but Kate can have her foot licked by a total stranger in a NYC bar, no problem.

Tamara, no, I think Kate might think about Jon again, if Steve was out of the picture.No way would Jon take her back, I hope! Never say never in their reality world, I guess. Nothing much surprises me about Kate. but I think Jon has learned a valuable lesson, in that you don't have to let anyone treat you like shit, evah.

Kate would take him back in a NY minute, if he would agree to filming the show again, but I would eat my laptop if he did.

Tamara said...

The sheeple have always jumped on Jon for doing perfectly normal, healthy, soically acceptable things. I have stopped trying to figure out their reasoning, if it can even be called reasoning as there is no reason behind it. It's kind of funny in a way. Usually the double standard goes the other way, with women being sluts if they dare go to a bar and hit on a man, whereas it's fine for a guy to hit on 100 women a night. But that's the sheeple in a nutshell, bassackwards.

hey jude said...

Teresa, I saw part of that show with Mackenzie in it; she is one spoiled kid. The mother actually acts like she is afraid of her.The article and comments are something else. Dr. Glass really goes off on that one commenter! Wow.

I am afraid ni ni the pacifier would have met an early demise at my house, ridiculous for a 4 yr. old to be having it. Good grief.

I have been trying to post over at Dwindles, but I just can't figure it out again.You? Hope you are well, miss you two on here.

$$$$$$$$$
No doubt about it...the way she throws the word love around so carelessly shows that she doesn't have a clue what it means. Her description of what she wants in a husband, as told to Dr. Drew was a description of Pre-divorce Jon.

I don't see Kate and Steve together.  I think that they understand each other and are comfortable together ---more like brother and sister, peas in a pod. Those are two very frosty people who have gotten ahead in life by stepping on others.

Teresa said...

Jude, l don't go over there anymore. I keep leaving little blurbs on here for you but l guess you're not seeing them.
Yeah, that kid is awful isn't she? I blame the parents for all of the kid's behavior. What can you expect when the kid rule's the parents eh?

It's another terrible program TLC is abusing IMO

hey jude said...

Hi, Teresa! You're here, yeah..Those kids are fascinating to watch on that show, but I can only watch little bits of it.It's all the parents' fault for putting their kids in those pageants. I watch to see the parents; they're downright certifiable!They sure spend a lot of money to get a cheap plastic trophy and maybe a crown. Crazy fools- especially those flipper teeth they wear, ha ha. I want a pair.

Any reason why you don't go over - can you get on there to post? I did one time, but I've tried many times and can't get anywhere. I wanted to leave my e-mail address, so she could give it to you for me, but couldn't even e-mail her. Drove me buggy! I still want to, any ideas? I saw one post last week from you, but don't come here as often.I wish I was more computer savvy,oh well.

What do you think of Kate's cruise? Shall we go?My hubby said he'd pay for us to go,ha ha.

It is always about the money with Kate.

Teresa, yeah that's not HC posting. I guess we won't go on her lame cruise, I get seasick too. I would just like to go on there and annoy the hell out of Kate, my bad!

I am so glad to talk to you again, hope the debbie downers stay in bed, lol.Do you think she'll bring the twins? Hope not, they deserve to have their own vacation, unless they want to go.Last year Kate said she couldn't meet with her tweenies because it takes all of Aug. to get ready for school.But, a cruise she can fit in? Silly sheeple....

I agree the sucking up to the fans is getting hard to read. She rarely did that before, now it's just constant buttering them up.

When will her sheeple get it? YOU are a commodity to Kate. You exist only to feed her narcissistic supply and provide her with money. When her narcissism is fed elsewhere or she is able to obtain money elsewhere, you are nothing to her. First Kate exploited the kids. Now, she's exploiting her fans.

____________________

I totally agree. Deep down, she knows she is not good at anything, has never been able to handle her kids alone without "help," even when she is home full time without a job. I will say that I do not think she did the full marathon run,(the whole race was fluky), and really has nothing to offer, and knows she is truly circling the drain. Her twitter desperation speaks volumes that she is trying to hang on to fame, when recently, she clearly did NOT want to do photos with fans, but did grudgingly, when Steve told her to.

The cruise fans are going to be in for a big shock when meeting their "idol" as she will never be genuine/available on this week long cruise. They will most likely see her from afar and will be expected to be happy with this other than a few required photo sessions lasting 10 seconds. The outcome of the cruise should be VERY interesting. Everything she does, stinks to high heaven.

Rearranging the Deck Chairs on the Titanic said...

To Permanent Name (#170): There is something joyful and peaceful, which Khate has never recognized, and never will, in "just being yourself, just being you." Khate will never know that joy and peace. I used to watch Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood when I was a kid, and one of the songs that he sang on that show was the simple, yet profound little ditty, "It's You I Like". It went something like this:

It's you I like
It's not the clothes you wear
It's not the way you do your hair, but
It's you I like.

The way you are right now
the way-down-deep inside you
Not the things that hide you --
Not your toys, they're just beside you.

It's you I like
Every part of you
Your skin, your eyes, your feelings
Whether old or new

I hope that you'll remember
Even when you're feeling blue
That it's YOU I like
Yes, you, yourself
Its YOU I like.

I guess no one sang that little ditty to Khatie Irene when she was little.

LaLaLandNoMore said...

Can you even imagine how the people that Kate has "stepped on" to get ahead must feel towards her? I've had a bit of exposure to users, but no one like Kate has spent much time in my life. My grandma used to say "every dog has its day" and the "wheel of justice grinds slowly". I believe her words. Kate's eight kids aren't raised yet. Watch out!

Layla said...

Okay, I need some help here--I was making brunch this morning, and the TV had the "On Demand" channel on in the background. I wasn't really paying attention, but I heard someone narrating, and he said somehting about how "She has grab syndrome", she thinks she needs to grab everything right now while she can still get it, etc. And then I heard THAT voice, saying, "Everything I do is because of them, for them..." Basically, someone calling her out for being a greedy b**ch and her trying to say it's for the kids.
So, anyone know what show that is from? I didn't see it on any of the On Demand selections. Is it one of the TLC interviews, or the E! True Hollywood Story? I'm guessint the E! THS, because I'd think TLC would edit out someone calling her out, but I may be wrong.I have no intention of watching it, but I thought that "grab syndrome" statement was just such an accurate description of her.
By the way, she's been stuck at home wih the kids for two straight weeks now. I'm betting she's about to lose her mind. We know she grabs every opportunity to get away from them, so I guess that means no opportunities have come up for her. A taste of things to come, perhaps?

Downeaster Alexa said...

"The outcome of the cruise should be VERY interesting. Everything she does, stinks to high heaven."

Yes, but even if it turns out badly for them, they are never going to admit it. They will say that they had a wonderful time, Kate was so personable, they got lots of pictures with her, she's so GEORGOUS, they were with her every day for several hours...

Never in a million years will they admit that the whole thing was a disaster and she was a snob.

Fidosmommy,
I am only speculating that Jon & Kate share the pap money. I have no clue if they do or don't.

******

I've read it several times, so I was wondering where the idea started. From a magazine article, an interview, or was it simply an idea someone had? Since I don't read magazines or watch the TV magazine shows, sometimes I'm out of the loop.

Cammie said...

I know this is mostly about Kate but I have seen you guys cover the Duggar kids before. I was just pretty upset with the preview I saw on TLC. They are having a very special valentines day episode 1 hour long about the miscarriage of baby #20. For a family that asked for privacy, now it looks like they are showing everything. The previews shows the kids talking about baby names all happy, going for teh ultrasound and finding out the baby is miscarried, and then the funeral. Seeing how poorly the did the grandfathers last days and funeral(the kids were rolling grandpa duggar in an office chair as he was basically in a coma, trying to singing a last happy birthday to him.) I cant believe they are doing a special on this. I feel bad the kids have no privacy in this situation.

Gosselin8ComeFirst said...

LaLaLandNoMore said... 173

I totally agree. Kate has stepped on way too many feet along the way, and her paybacks are coming... Without the protection of TLC, who helped create this monster, she is on her own, and not going to fare well.

TLC protected and took care of everything for Kate for a very long time. Now that she is on her own and her "protection" is gone, it is going to be very interesting. Other than being a mother of tups and sextuplets, she has NOTHING to offer, and is not even able to manage her 8 kids by herself, without help, even when she has no job. Circling the drain, post Feb 2012, without TLC, who may be throwing her a few bones for interviews, (severance) etc.. but going to end soon and then we can expect more of Kate cruises, etc that no one really wants to go on. The fact that she added the twins to the cruise(although originally implied), and probably got TLC to push for an article in RW, will drastically change come end of Feb 2012. Without TLC throwing her bones, she is on her own.

March 2012 should be a very interesting month for Kate... Honestly, TLC does not have too many boundaries, so dumping Kate says a lot. Twist of Kate- gonzo.

They can't really be knocking Jon for this can they? There is no difference between having a drink at dinner, as Kate does (STK in NYC for example), and having a drink at a bar. None.

What exactly is wrong about an unmarried guy going to a bar and having a drink and talking to a woman. I guess it's better to just shag your married bodyguard.

I was going to do a post on Justin Beiber who said in his documentary sometimes he just wants to go back to normal, go home, stop all this crazy touring, just be a kid. (yes, I watched his documentary, shut up) And from everything I can see it looks like his parents are doing a good job by him. Which is impressive given how young his mom is. Even he is like, I can't take this.

Even if your parents have their heads on straight, you're still f-ed up.

Once a Viewer said...

Rearranging # 171: I watched Mr Rogers as a kid and later with my two children ( my mom who lived with us for a while during her terminal illnesstuned in too). I remember that song. Fred Rogers was as decent a human being as ever graced the television screen and my kids learned a lot from him about values as well as fun things. He was always gracious to fans and took extra time to meet with special needs children. I was sad to hear of his death- I regret not having written to him to tell him how indeed we felt part of his neighborhood.

Kate- I wish you could have taken a lesson from Mr. Rogers. Plain, simple, deep-down good-hearted and kind. That's the kind of person you should strive to become. We all should.

The Bitter End, no - not at all. Milo is encouraging a teenager (who she does not know!!) to do her best in a hockey tourney. It might be nice if she were tweeting her own daughter. Nope, she's too busy with a total stranger.

Angie said...

Sad, she probably can't sell enough tkts by herself for a "single's cruise, so someone from Carnival probably said "you have to have some of the kids with you so people with kids will book rooms" but with all the stomach diseases from the last 2 ships and that Italian Carnival cruise ship going bottoms up, well I would not book a cruise for quite a while if I were any of you thinking about it. Carnival needs to get their act together on these horrible ship problems.

barbee said...

It struck me as odd too that she would be planning a Super Bowl party/dinner for her kids. Like 7 yr olds and most 11 yr old girls are really into that. And then tweeted that she was 'dancing' to Madonna during halftime. WHOA (NOTE TO KATE: this is how it is spelled),
don't know how she could call anything she would be doing dancing after the DWTS fiasco that was so well documented. Will she ever get a grip and see life as it really is instead of how she wishes it was?

Powell took a hatchet to the poor little boys just before he blew the house up. The kids drew pictures of mommy in the trunk...said mommy is in the mine looks for crystals. WTF...The teacher didnt report this...she gave the pictures back to dad. The social worker showed up only to be chased away smelling gas...and did what??? Where the hell was the red flag?

As for kate and her claim to a super bowl party for the kids? Yeah right...she dosent give a shit about sports.Like the tups or the twins care either. Just more lies from kate. Like kate cooked/made anything.

The Duggars. Sorry to disagree with most. I do NOT believe they are willing to sell the kids like kate has. The Duggars had 14 kids before tlc came to them.The Duggars were finacally well to do before that.
I do believe they have got to a point where they dont have much say.Like Jon and kate....they have no clue about tv contracts and what not. I believe tlc has them between a rock and a hard place.
Like Jon...he couldnt say or do anything that tlc didnt approve...even tho he didnt want his kids exploited anymore...they would have sued his ass! I think the Duggars are in the same spot.They really didnt know what they signed up for.
Now tlc has them.They will show what they want even tho the Duggars say no. I hope the Duggars realize it has went to far,
Reality shows are fake....I hope they are a thing of the past real soon.
