McCaughey septuplets begin senior year of high school

Patriarch Kenny said the family purposely avoided reality T.V. all these years because privacy is the 'best way' to raise a family. 




In a previous interview for their 16th birthday, Nathan told reporters he did not like doing the infrequent update specials the parents allowed: "I never liked it, all these cameras following you around everywhere," Nathan said.

@Kateplusmy8: Got lots going on here guys! Sorry I’ve been so quiet... But I’m betting you’ll forgive me for being so busy verrrry soon 😉!! #AllIsWellHere

Yup, TFW is still filming the hell out of those kids. They don't even get a break for school and studying.

Susie Cincinnati said...

I am curious about some of the sheeple, like Denise, Carlene, Terri, Milo, Jeanne, who must have Kate Twitter alert on their phones. Kate tweets, they are right there up her butt, wanting news on her shows, waiting with bated breath to be entertained by someone else's kids. What happens if she tweets and they at at the movies? Do they run out to the lobby and tweet her? What if they are enjoying a nice dinner at a restaurant? Do they stop eating to fawn all over her? If they are in the shower, do they grab a towel and jump on Twitter, hoping for Kate to acknowledge them? What if they are in the throes of passion -- do they end it right then and there so they can tweet to Kate? They all forgive her for being busy and ignoring them. Kate must feel so special.

I don't get it! Or are they always on Twitter, 24/7, just anxiously waiting for her highness to throw them some bones?

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

Such an ego. Such self-aggrandizement. Such a snot. Teasing is so juvenile. Just come out and tell her beloved sheepies why she is so busy. I guess it is much more satisfying for her to keep them sitting on the edge of their seats, guessing, wishing and hoping. They need to be entertained by another parent's kids, and it really makes one wonder if they do have lives of their own.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Well, September is already two-thirds over, and that back-to-school shopping episode still isn't on the schedule. So TFW's teasing
middle-schooler tweet doesn't convince me there are amazing
things ahead for her on TLC. She really was a media darling at
one point, and now seems to be satisfied with whatever crumbs
TLC gives her. Kinda like the crumbs she gives her hungry fans.

Over And Out said...

They forgive her for being quiet! Isn't that so SWEET?

Chefsummer -- so good to have you back. Sorry you didn't have such a great summer, but I'm glad your mom is better.

Rhymes -- there are a lot of reasons that Roo could have been coughing. She got something caught in her throat, something she swallowed irritated her throat, sinus drainage from allergies, she could have kennel cough (the Bordatella vaccine doesn't provide 100% coverage), dogs (and cats) can get tonsillitis. If she's still coughing tomorrow, you should probably take her to the vet just to be on the safe side. If she's not coughing any longer and seems otherwise well, then it was probably just a temporary irritation.

The worst quote from TFMJG -- when she was screaming at Jon for failing to use a coupon to buy the shower head. She said something like "I'm so angry with you if I had a gun I'd shoot you". For failing to use a coupon! Great thing for your children to overhear!

Kate has fallen on her knees with gratitude to Gladys! Praise everything that's holy. Milo will be there for her! The lusting goes on and on and on.

Susie Cincinnati said...

I think it would be so amusing if these remaining sheeple decided to get together for a trip to PA to meet Kate and take her out to dinner. I wonder what her excuse would be. You know darn well she would never give them the time of day and would have a panic attack if any of them showed up at her house. They would quickly find out how much she doesn't love them.

I would be willing to pay round-trip airfare for Gladys to meet Kate.

Milo's departure lasted longer than I thought it would. I guess nothing can stop true love, even when it is one-sided.

AuntieAnn said...

Chef and KIAT - thanks. lol. She's about as interested in them as she is in thermodynamics. They don't see it and the real scary part is some day that little following of hers will be old enough to vote.

librarylady said...

Good question, why is TLC still willing to pay Kate? Why are advertisers willing to drop The View at a drop of a hat over a comment about nurses, yet those same advertisers have no problem with Kate's show
#################

Because nothing extreme has happened live on tv or caught in a truly public fashion. The Duggars have always driven people crazy with annoyance, but until something offensive occurred outside of the tv show, most didn't care about or pay attention to the commentary and ratings soared (I'm certain they will try for a comeback in some fashion, and people will watch hoping to rubberneck). The View happened right on air. K8's things have generally been hearsay or speculation according to the public, not "live". She might have an ugly personality, but that sells on tv. When something very negative she does comes out separately from the tv show, with irrefutable proof, or live, then she'll be gone. In the meantime, she'll take whatever scraps and freebies TLC will give her while they try to patch the hole of the Duggars. Make note that her "shows" seem to only air when there isn't much else to watch and people are driven indoors more as the weather gets cold, they know ratings would be really had otherwise. She's moved into the "meh" category as far as public awareness (Not that she cares, she still gets paid)

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Librarylady (#20), I get your point about TFW getting away with
things that can't be proven. But what about that Today Show
disaster? There she was on live TV, coaxing her daughters
to speak badly about their father. Clapping her hands and
saying "Spit it out!" to these girls who clearly had a different
agenda. I thought that was it -- it was all over for her. The
world would finally see the shrew behind the smiling veneers.
But nope -- she managed to survive that debacle.

The "meh" category -- yup, that's where she's firmly nestled.
But if it means never donning her nursing scrubs again, she'll
take it!

Eight is More Than Enough said...

Agree and great post librarylady. It will take Katie being arrested for something violent, not DUI sort of thing, or photos and video of her doing something violent to her kids or dog or the physical aftermath (bruises, cuts).

She's not famous enough for anyone to pay much attention or be shocked and appalled if she blurts out the n-word or something.

librarylady said...

#223 get your point about TFW getting away with things that can't be proven. But what about that Today Show disaster?
######################

Eh, people just looked at that as more proof of her extremely unpleasant personality along with 2 sullen and moody teens. She just isn't on anyone's radar enough for people to care much or get wound up about her sour family relationships.

People watch the random shows because they purposely air when there is little else to compete. Until something extreme and irrefutible springs up about her that is current (or absolute nonquestionable proof of something old but really awful), she will just keep floating along in her little canoe on TLC until she sinks herself or until TLC finds another yacht-worthy family like the Duggars, until they sank themselves with a big time scandal.

FYI said...

Interesting...Kate started following @Maraleosllc, which is a food truck service that specializes in Italian food. They are also following her.

"At Mara-Leo's Italian Food Truck, we serve homemade Italian foods. It’s our pleasure to serve great Italian food for a fair price. Come find us around Pennsylvania, mainly in Lancaster and State College."

Guess the Blue Apron endorsement deal didn't work out and now she's trying to get one from this company. Or they will be featured on one of the upcoming shows?

Why else would she follow them and vice versa?

FYI said...

Totally OT, but I saw this posted on FB and thought I'd share it here. It's a mashup of dance scenes from various movies set to the song "Uptown Funk".

http://www.refinery29.com/2015/09/94157/uptown-funk-dance-mashup#.bg7khu:BKlq

Enjoy!!

NJGal51 said...

I think the reason that TFW is still floating around is because no one really cares about her. Planted articles about her don't rate any air time because Again, no one really cares any more. She's just kind of there and the reaction to the articles may well be "oh yeah, the bitch with all the kids". As librarylady said, they air the shows when nothing else new is really on so she draws some viewers. She's trying to reinvent herself yet again As the "put upon anything goes mom" but her numbers continue to decline because she's boring and the kids are not much better. I think people tune in to see the bitch and when they get "medicated Kate" instead they tune out.

redbird said...

Sad that she has to keep grifting for food. I wonder if she and Katherine, her private chef had a falling out or she just didn't want to pay for the service. It is so much cheaper just to grift, because it's free, ya'll! The week or 2 weeks free Blue Apron just flew bye, ya'll.

Look at all of the Chipolte she got. They must of gave her a huge amount in gift cards because she was tweeting about being there for a long time. I guess when she ran out finally, Chipolte didn't give her anymore because of the backlash, they stopped. Good for them.

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

Even the sumo wrestling costume hat, her slanting her eyes and her Mr. Grinch grin in the picture didn't produce as much outrage as I had hoped for. It was total disrespect to her children and their heritage and to the Asian community.

It will take a major news story from her to get the media attention. I can just hear Matt Lauer say, What were the warning signs that led to this? Maybe that will be the day that Robert will be giving interviews as an expert on Kate Gosselin.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

KIAT (#26), interesting find there! Yeah, sounds like some freebie
involved for TFW. Maybe their truck appeared in an episode.
You know, one of those spontaneous (read: planned ahead two
months earlier) moments when the whole family is out frolicking
and realize they're starving, and TFW just happens to spot a food
truck (with all the employees in full hair and makeup). Happens
to me every day.

NJGal51 said...

KIAT - You're absolutely right and she's only following the food truck because it's an episode. She'll tweet back and forth with them while the episode is airing and then they'll fall by the wayside like everyone else. The food truck will get some publicity and may even get a shot on The Great Food Truck Race out of it. So what will this boring episode be...Kate and the kids have fun in the park and eat off a food truck. Interesting viewing...NOT!

redbird said...

Just turned the channel and Home and Family is on.

Guess who is on? Louis and Pauler. Ugh! Dread it.

There was some story about a beautiful dog and I didn't catch it but everyone was in tears. Then they went to Tanya, (love her & the crafts she does) and she said that she had to have some keys cut over the weekend and they messed them up. They threw them in a big pile and she realized, oh, I could make a lot of crafts out them and they gave them to her for free just to get rid of them.

She made 2 gorgeous necklaces and she said they are very expensive to buy but you can make them yourself. They were very pretty!

Oh, Pauler just said that she was very very nervous Monday night. It was live, I was in high heels and I was a fish out of water. Someone posted about Pauler can't get out of the spotlight. Well, neither can her sons. They have one show after another. Riding the gravy train.

She just couldn't help herself. She said she was holding on to Louis for dear life, there was nothing sexual about it. This had to be because of her shoving Louis face into her chest. Then Christine said, Its okay, because you are sexy. Ugh!

Strange, she is always talking about her husband, Michael. She hasn't even mentioned him or even shown him. I wonder if he will be in the audience.

Who cares if the fans forgive Kate? She should be worried that her kids aren't going to forgive her for making them work all of their lives.
They're in school, ffs! She's back to filming the crap out of them every single weekend and holiday she's got them.
I really wish Jon could put a stop to it. It's beyond, just beyond, to make them work and bring an entire film crew into the house when they're in school.

FYI said...

This is what the food truck company tweeted yesterday:

Mara-Leo's LLC @Maraleosllc
Today skip the 1pm NFL Games & go to @Blackwalnutwine Drink wine, listen to music & enjoy our Italian food from 1-5pm! #foodtruck #wine

Black Walnut is a winery and they had an event yesterday according to their twitter and FB:

"Looks like a beautiful day is in store! Come on out to the winery for a little Sunday Funday before it's time to head back to work tomorrow."

Maybe Kate and one of her BFF's went there because um, you know, um, "busy" mothers deserve some time for themselves. And it probably was filmed.

Tucker's Mom said...

Whoopie, the kids eat at a food truck. I hope they didn't have to split a sandwich 8 ways.
More free food for Kate!
What, they getting tired of Craft services?
I think Kate hardly cooks anymore.

Sue_Buddy said...

Wow, Kate's gone from Kobe beef at the Essex to spaghetti from a food truck. Love it.

FYI said...

Here's a list of what the new episodes will possibly include. Some have been confirmed by tweets, and others are speculation based on Kate's and others tweets.

1. Back to school shopping(confirmed)

2. Trip to Florida(confirmed)

3. Spa day(confirmed based on a tweet by masseuse)

4. Possible construction being done at the house(based on a tweet by Kate)

5. Possible episode about Kate cooking a Blue Apron meal(could be combined with construction episode)

6. Possible filming at winery(based on Kate following food truck company that was at an event held there yesterday and Kate tweeting yesterday about how "busy" they've been)

Did I leave anything out? It will be interesting to see if the ones speculated about do come to fruition.

Caroline said...

Only time will tell if shes been making the kids earn her a paycheck since school resumed.
She also goes twitter silent when Jon has the kids. She seems to only tweet when the kids are home and she has nothing to do.

Formerly Duped said...

I wonder how many new episodes or specials of K+8 there will be... from the way it sounds, a LOT. What a pity.I was hoping things would change a little since Hannah's rebellion and Collin's problems.The kids obviously need their space and privacy.

If it was just a contrived' Kate and Jeff 'show, fine, although I'm sure that would crash and burn..

sayitisntso said...

Please don't tell me TFW is launching a "wine", like all of the Real Housewives. Although she certainly likes wine. Maybe this is what she and Jeff were working on and he decided to back out of filming.

It is really strange that she would have connections with that food truck, and why she would be in Sadsburyville yesterday. The winery is not even close to her, probably about 45 minutes away. The food truck is in Lancaster, but she would have no reason for being in the city location, so how did she get hooked up with them? Maybe she met them at an event somewhere, talked them into a ¨business relationship,¨ better known as grifting.

Have you ever watched the shows? Her son's are adults and have their own cooking style shows. I've watched them and enjoyed them. No riding the gravy train as there is talent there. You just really don't seem to like Paula which is fine but you do seem to read a lot in to anything she does. I'll give her a break and decide after I've seen her perform more.

----------------------------------------
The list will probably be pretty accurate, though there may be one item missing. In the last filming frenzy, people were convinced they were filming at Dutch Wonderland because one tweeter said (in separate tweets) that he had met Kate, and that he had been at Dutch Wonderland. But based on the pictures, he had actually met her at the hotel. I don't believe there was any Dutch Wonderland in the episodes when they aired. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I don't actually watch, and now I can't; I no longer get TLC.

Kate is back to filming the kids full tilt boogie, having cameras in their face anytime they're free and in her possession.
It's so unfair that they have to support her and deal with school, and its a shame no one can stop her.

According to their FB page, these are the places that the food truck has been recently.

"This week in Mara-Leo's Italian Food Truck Lunchtastic!
Tuesday 15th 12-2pm PCA&D - Pennsylvania College of Art & Design
Wednesday 16th 1130-1pm A & A Auto Body and Repairs
Thursday 17th 12-2pm Pennsylvania College Of Art & Design
SUNDAY 20th 1-5pm Black Walnut Winery"

All these places are in Lancaster.

They also participate in something called Food Truck Fridays.

"Food Truck Friday's (lunch 11-2) Mara-Leo's Italian Food Truck at Springettsbury Park"

They were at the park on Friday, the 18th.

All these places are about an hour away from Kate. Doesn't seem like she just happened to run into them. She had to go to one of the specific events that they appeared at. The winery made the most sense to me, unless they went to Springettsbury Park.

FYI said...

Another possibility is that Kate is thinking of hiring the food truck company for a private event, like the twins upcoming birthday. This is on their website:

"Contact us if you are interested in our truck for private parties or public events!"

Perhaps some of her kids attended a private party that the truck was at, or they heard about it from friends at school and that's how she heard about them.

Of course, this is all speculation, but it's just weird that Kate and the company are both following each other. Something is definitely up and it probably involves filming.

redbird said...

I would of bought 2 quarts of ice cream that had been stored in the freezer and so ice cream should of been pretty close to hard. Then go to the bus and dip out the ice cream onto a cone.

She's only going to give them one scoop anyway. And it wouldn't of been melted. Then she would of tossed the left over ice cream.

I am also not reading into Pauler's sons too much! I have liked a show or two that they have done. But, they have went from running Lady and Son's to every show they can possibly be on the Food Network and the Cooking Channel. I admit I would like to see them on Reality TV CHOPPED.

ABC News will tease its Kentucky visit between Paula Faris and Davis on Monday's World News Tonight, while Megyn Kelly will interview Davis from her New York studio.

"Hiring" doesn't necessarily mean "paying". We know how that works with Kate. She does the hiring, TLC does the paying.

Thursday 17th 12-2pm Pennsylvania College Of Art & Design
SUNDAY 20th 1-5pm Black Walnut Winery"

All these places are in Lancaster.

&&&&&&&&&&

The winery is in Sadsburyville which is not close to Kate and is not near Lancaster. Springettsbury is over in York, quite a distance away. The auto body shop is in Willow Street, not in Lancaster, unless they opened one in the city that I don't know about. I cannot imagine that she just ¨ran into them.¨ These are not places that she would frequent.

PA Dutch Mom said...

I bet you're right, KIAT. Food trucks at parties, even for little kids, is really popular in this area. And there you have it (sadly) another episode of making memories!

&&&&&&&&

Sounds right to me. There does not appear to be any way to stop her and that's what is baffling about the whole Kate debacle. She just goes on and on and on, and those kids will forever be her meal ticket. The sheeple will lap it up because there is no rational thinking among any of them that would allow them to see what damage filming the crap out of kids can do children who have nobody to protect them from being exploited.

I thought TLC was done with her. Guess we were wrong. If there is any money to be made, they will go for it and Kate will be giddy to suck every last dime out of them while she laughs all the way to the bank.

PA Dutch Mom said...

All kidding aside, there is something seriously disturbing about this person. This has Selena written all over it. She is in love. For Kate's sake, I really hope that she weans her in some way that won't put Kate in any harm. I read the ¨stoning¨ tweet and it made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. Something is really off with her or him.

Ice cream cones, cups, cartons. Does it really make a difference?

I think we can all agree the whole New York episode was one hot mess in every way. Ice cream was the least of it.

I can see this food truck company wanting the publicity and TLC is footing the bill, so why not. Sounds like the twins are going a have a big to-do birthday. Stay tuned. Next year it will be a car from TLC. Not a doubt in my mind.

I don't think that ice cream was the least of it. The scene on the bus, with Kate behaving badly to the point of pushing a cone at her son, really showed a very ugly side of her in the whole scheme of things. It was integral to the whole NYC hot mess.

Even the sumo wrestling costume hat, her slanting her eyes and her Mr. Grinch grin in the picture didn't produce as much outrage as I had hoped for. It was total disrespect to her children and their heritage and to the Asian community.

Was a rebellion ever confirmed? Nothing ever came from the story. Nothing that I've read at least and H is still filming.

TLC stinks said...

PA Dutch Mom, probably so. Maybe they are adding a garage addition for the twin's car(s), LOL. I cannot believe the money TLC spends on her. And it's all her ideas because she is the "producer". She is riding this money train until those kids leave for college.

In no time at all those twins will be off to college, following by the younger children. If she is doing more renovations, construction, what would be the purpose? If TLC has paid and is paying for all of that, will Kate be the one to benefit from the equity in the house when she goes to sell it? If so, nice going! TLC foots the bill; Kate gets the re-sale/improvements profits. It's the best of all worlds for her.

Mona said...

OK, let me try again. The mode of transportation of the ice cream is the least of the hot NYC mess. No matter if it had arrived in cones, cups or cartons, Kate would have been rough about shoving it at her kids.

NJGal51 said...

Redbird I have to disagree with you about the Deen brothers. It seems that every Food Network star is on multiple shows now. Take Guy Feiri. He won The Next Food Network. He's done Or is doing...Guy's Big Bite, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, Guy Off The Hook, Guy's Grocery Games, Rachel vs Guy Celebrity Cook Off and the Ultimate Recipe Showdown. He also branched out and did Minute To Win It. I'm not even going to touch on Bobby Flay. It's OK if you don't like the Deen family (I don't like them all that much either) but you can't single them out for doing multiple shows when it seems that everyone over there is doing it. This is just my opinion so,please don't take it as anything more than that.

NJGal51 said...

Question about property taxes in PA. If she adds on doesn't she have to pay more in taxes? That's how it is where I am. We've got a shed in our yard on skids because if we put it on a concrete slab it's considered a permanent building and we'd have to pay taxes on it.

We don't know how this is set up. In the hands of a top-notch tax attorney, I would believe that there would be ways to get around taxable income. Then there is always capital gain and how they have that structured to offset profit. I would imagine that all of it would be very complex and figured out to Kate's advantage. You also have to take into account market value at the time she sells it as well as current assessment, how much of a loss she would take, and if any over-improvement would actually help or hurt her. You can speculate until the cows come home and I really don't think there's an answer...at least not right now.

NJGal51, I agree with you. Guy Fieri seems like he is on all the time and Bobby Flay even worse. Beat Bobby Flay, I actually watch, but now that has gotten old and now they are having Beat Bobby Flay, 2nd Chance. The thing I can't stand on BBF is the judges NEVER has a dish that was salted just right, the meat tender, the vegetables cooked just right. It is always even steven to be judged on. It is always one thing on each dish. Even on CHOPPED they have dishes that they don't find fault with.

I didn't mean to single out the Deen boys.

A local reporter is vacationing in New Orleans and she sent out a message that she would be back Thursday. I sent her a message that she had to eat the Shrimp and Grits before she left. Someone else posted and said that they had ate the S&G at a place that Pauler Deen's brother owned. I thought that was funny because we have been talking about Pauler and the Deen boys!

Didn't Jon and Kate have a contract with Lane Furniture where Lane agreed to pay all taxes on the gift of a house full of furniture? I wonder if Kate somehow finagles that same deal out of all her new stuff.

DWTS SPOILER ALERT:

FYI--Although Kim's score last week(12) was lower than Kate's lowest score(14) on DWTS, Kim's score tonight(l9) was higher than Kate's highest score(18). That was the week that had 2 scores, one for technical and one for performance(4th week). Kate got 18 for performance, and 14 for technical. The other 4 weeks Kate was one she got a 16(1st week) and 15's for the other 3 weeks she appeared.

Not only does Tony know how to teach, Kim knows how to learn. And yes, they are safe.

In my opinion it's very very hard to get out of the taxes of something like a grifter home renovation. You can try to put a provision in there tlc will pay all taxes but then you still owe taxes on the payment of taxes! Lol. When you're up to this level of freebies sometimes it's too dicey for most people's taste to navigate the tax consequences without ending up like another Richard Hatch. Would you do it too? Nah, not worth it.

We must admit, however, that Gosselin has denied many relationship rumors since her split from Jon Gosselin. Remember when the reality star denied dating her bodyguard even the though the two were clearly together? We're not sure what to believe anymore!

Why is it always a competition with Kate Gosselin. Yes, having HOM's must have been a hellish pregnancy. However, Kate was pregnant twice and done.
Kim and other women put their bodies through just as much, if not more, and having kids all at once does actually have advantages.
It's not all hardship!
And, puleez, Kim and Kate both have had extensive body work done so that they look as they do today.
I still think Bobbi McCaughey looks better.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Tucker's Mom (#100), and we've talked about the other advantages
of having kids of the same age. There was always a playmate
around for the twins and tups, which isn't always the case in
families whose kids' ages are widely spread. And I would guess
the biggest advantage in TFW's case has been having only
2 school grades to deal with per year. The illusion of panic and
havoc going on at the beginning of each new term is merely a
ploy to get her fans' sympathy and attention. And they buy into
it every time.

My SIL's 3 kids just started 3 different schools, AND they all do individual sports/interests.
This is the story of most moms out there, so why it's fascinating to watch kids buy khaki pants and white shirts is beyond me.
Maybe it's the haircuts and buying new eyeglasses that puts it over the top?

What was so crazy is when TFW rambled and spit out that Tony didn't know how to teach her the way she learns. And the look of shock on his face just said it all. I am so glad he walked out and said, I quit.

Tucker's Mom said...

Some of the gay couples on Monday had their ACLU attorneys request to the judge to have the marriage licenses reissued because Kim Davis altered them and they may be not valid.
==================

There are several things they're asking for.

“Davis’ decision to significantly interfere with the marriage licenses being issued as of this Court’s September 8 Order not only violates the Court’s clear directive, but it also has resulted in material alterations to those licenses that render their validity questionable at best,” the plaintiffs argue in the motion submitted Monday to Bunning.

The plaintiffs ask Bunning to require deputy clerks to issue marriage licenses “in the same form or manner as those that were issued on or before Sept. 8,” and to bar Davis from altering marriage licenses. Violating such an order, the plaintiffs argue, should result in fines against Davis to “coerce” her into compliance — and in Bunning placing the clerk’s office in a “receivership for the limited purpose of issuing marriage licenses.”

http://www.buzzfeed.com/dominicholden/aclu-says-kim-davis-is-interfering-with-deputy-clerks-seeks#.jp3rMLBPD

Buzzfeed also has a copy of the motion that the plaintiffs filed yesterday.

Part of Kim Davis' interview with Paula Faris was on GMA this morning. More of it is supposed to be shown on the View. You can see the GMA part here:

I didn't feel that Tony seemed removed or quiet. Did I miss something?

BTW, unlike Kate, at least Kim Z. admits to using Botox.

http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/09/22/kim-zolciak-needed-botox-before-dwts/

"Zolciak said there's no sin in using Botox and feels other stars should go public about it: "I'm all for making yourself feel good. If you want to do it to feel good about yourself, do it. Why lie? Why hide? We only go around one time so enjoy it."

Zolciak's "DWTS" partner Dovolani told reporters, "I love…that she doesn't hide the fact she's had Botox."

FlimsyFlamsy said...

KIAT (#106), botox is just for the poor souls who are facing the
ravages of time. But not for a special snowflake like TFW, who
candidly admitted she's one of the "rare" people who "de-age!"

Oh, and one of these days, TFW will stop slumming with small
potatoes companies like NoNetz and Blue Apron, and sign up
for an endorsement deal with the folks who make her "good bra,"
and she'll never have to work another day in her life. Tee hee!

I'm sure there's plenty of panic, havoc and chaos in the G house--kids screeching and hitting and pushing and running with poor Zorro tucked in a shirt.

"I don't think dignity is guaranteed in the Constitution," Davis says. "I think dignity is something that you find within yourself.

I mean, there's just so much more to life than that."

Now the woman is a Constitutional scholar? How rich that when it comes to gay couples, a marriage license is just a piece of paper.
Yet, she won't issue it to them?
This woman is unbelievable.

Supposedly, Davis is still not giving out any marriage licenses. How long can he hijack that office, abuse her position and not carry out her duties that she swore under oath to do?

Ex Nurse said...

For anyone who cares to take a trip down memory lane, this is a link to deleted posts by a circa 2005 Jon Gosselin on the subject of taxes and home renovations. He posts under the name daddyof8. He said that they were sent a 1099-Misc for $59000 by NBC for their home renovation.

He also said that their home was reappraised for taxes, which I think would happen whenever permits are pulled.

It really isn't complicated. it's admin said, any additional money paid for taxes would have to be assessed. I have a feeling that wat those companies and TLC do is is to payout the cost of the renovations or products, and then withheld taxes and paid them to the IRS. So, for example, If a renovation costs 60000, they list 72,000 on the 1099, but withhold 12,000 (20%) taxes, which the company pays to the IRS. So, they are taxed on all of it, including the additional paid to cover taxes. If the recipients taxable income puts them in a lower tax bracket, then they will recoup some of the taxes. As the homeowners, they would benefit from the improvement when it sold, but would probably have to pay higher property taxes.

-------------------------
I thought that too. If it's only a piece of paper, then why is she making such a fuss about it? What a tool.

And she's not a hypocrite because God has forgiven her multiple marriages. How convenient for her that he hasn't required her to go back to her first husband, or lead a celibate life.

I saw a comment that all this confusion over marriage is because two different concepts, civil marriage and religious marriage, are mixed up together. Every religion has the authority to decide who and when it will unite people in matrimony, but doesn't have the authority to declare all other marriages (civil and in other churches) invalid. The proposal is that marriage should be an entirely civil matter and "holy matrimony" a religious one.

Maybe religious officiants should be stripped of their authority to perform civil marriages. I believe George Clooney went through two marriage ceremonies recently, one civil and one religious.

I've always thought that people doing "destination weddings" should just get married at city hall before they go, so their paperwork will be in order and accessible. Then do the whole ceremony at the exotic destination. Unless they live in Rowan County, that is.

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

No, it doesn't, not always. Without going into details, when we bought a home and made major renovations and permits were pulled, there was no re-appraisement done at that time for taxes. Property taxes/values are done during the reassessment period, and it is complicated, especially when it comes to reselling the house, and when it is resold. I would imagine that it is not the same in every state and county. Some homeowners have made extensive renovations and have never been reassessed.

Yes and yes ;-)
Bindi on DWTS is a highly-calculated maneuver to expose her to Americans and further her career.

"I don't think dignity is guaranteed in the Constitution," Davis says. "I think dignity is something that you find within yourself.

I mean, there's just so much more to life than that."

She is officially a puppet. She didn't think of that. Somebody told her to say that.

This from a woman who was married FOUR times? If marriage is just a piece of paper why did SHE bother? What a hypocrite.

It also shows a willful ignorance. Gay marriage is about so much more than dignity. For one, it's about equality. For another, it's about having the legal protection it imposes should something happen to the love of your life. Before gay marriage, one's love of their life could be turned away from one's death bed at the hospital because they had no legal right to see them. Watch the film Bridegroom. It happened.

She needs to GO AWAY.

Now the woman is a Constitutional scholar? How rich that when it comes to gay couples, a marriage license is just a piece of paper.
Yet, she won't issue it to them?

And in that you make a great point. If it doesn't mean anything, is just a piece of paper, what's the big freaking deal about issuing it then? Because she made a big, embarrassing deal about all this. I don't think she appreciates her role in one of history's darker moments.

Ah, but this is Kate we are talking about. I would think that she and a tax attorney and an accountant would have figured this out so it would be the most beneficial to her.

&&&

See, I think she does things that are not to her benefit or don't make financial sense all the time. She is a rob Peter to pay Paul type of person. She will skimp on the kids and then spend like crazy on silly frivolous things for herself.

I think she's penny wise and pound foolish, and even if a renovation really was not financially prudent right now and would have negative tax consequences for years to come, she might do it anyway. There are other things at play here, like her desire to keep up with the Jones', something to do an episode about, something to show off to the shekel about. Those trump sound financial sense sometimes for TFW.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I think DWTS is 90% work ethic 10% talent and Bindi has been working since she was an infant. She knows what it takes, and if you have that even a bad dancer can do well. I full expect her to make it to the end or close to it. I remember nearly falling over when Kate talked about how little she practiced. I know it's just a silly reality show but someone with that little care didn't deserve to be on.

Sue_Buddy said...

I think Kate is a compulsive and impulsive shopper. A third car made no sense at all at the time she bought it, for example. And what's it up to, 4 or 5 freezers? That's another example and it's obscene. She admits it, she's shopping all the time, and it's not just for toilet paper.

I agree. Most teens would NEVER be able to handle the pressures of this show. It's live and the workload is huge. Adults can barely handle it.

ABC is a big network and I wouldn't be surprised if they put their underage contestants through pretty thorough screening to make sure they can withstand the pressure. The Gosselins would never be able to hack it, nor should they be expected to. The last thing they need is some tabloid saying some ABC kid is keeling over from exhaustion and pressure because they were worked too hard on DWTS. The kids they allow on that show are kids they know can hack it. But that's a typical sheeple, completely clueless to how such things really work, even though it's obvious Bindi is uniquely situated.

I'm pretty sure she has decent financial advice. The problem is what I bet happened is someone said I wouldn't advise that Kate, that will do X to your tax bill due to the "income" of it alone.....to which Kate said I hear ya and I'm doing it anyway.

Hence the three cars. No one would advise such a thing for one driver in the family. Her good advisors probably said bad move, and she ignored them. They're just advisors not dictators.

Sue_Buddy said...

I don't think her legal advice has been so great either. LOL

Lanc Native said...

No, it doesn't, not always. Without going into details, when we bought a home and made major renovations and permits were pulled, there was no re-appraisement done at that time for taxes. Property taxes/values are done during the reassessment period, and it is complicated, especially when it comes to reselling the house, and when it is resold. I would imagine that it is not the same in every state and county. Some homeowners have made extensive renovations and have never been reassessed.

=====
True. A friend of mine bought a house, put on two additions, refinished the basement, and added hardwood floors throughout (the real hardwood that required sanding and staining) and construction permits were issued, but the taxes never increased because of the renovations. Everything remained the same. We could never figure it out, but nobody was complaining.

Lanc Native said...

Right, she wouldn't have listened, but when it comes to taxes and figuring out the best way to handle all of that requires professionals who know what they are doing. Kate would have no clue and I really do not think that she would ignore them because in her hands alone, she would screw everything up and then blame her advisers. I think in that case she would just become exasperated, bite the bullet and let them handle it.

The Gladys is under the impression that Kate was the big draw for that show. Without her, the show would have died. She pulled it up from near death and revived it. Therefore, since Kate was so loved and admired by everyone involved with DWTS, from production to costumes to network execs, with the snap of her fingers any of her kids would be more than welcomed contestants.

The Gladys is delusional.

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

I can. I once sat down and figured out how much she needs a year to keep that place going, with mortgage, taxes, utilities, maintenance, etc., and it is staggering. When she bought that property, she had no idea in the world the cost involved in maintaining it. She never owned such a house and figured that the money would always keep rolling in, and she thought that Jon would be there to take care of everything. I think she's had her eyes opened.

NCIS and Mark Harmon fan here. I also like the 2 other NCIS shows, Criminal Minds, and Blue Bloods. I also like The Good Wife. But NCIS is my favorite show. On cable, I like Major Crimes and Rizzoli and Isles, and also Suits.

BTW, for any CSI fans, CBS is showing the final episode of CSI:Crime Scene Investigation this Sunday at 9pm. Of course, it might be delayed a bit due to football.

It's a two hour show designed to wrap up all the loose ends that were left when the show was abruptly cancelled last February. Most of the original cast will be returning with the exception of George Eads(Nick).

Can you tell I like crime dramas and lawyer shows? Guess that's why I like research and detective work when it comes to this blog. :)

I never was a fan of NCIS. Probably because my husband was Intel and the show was just unrealistic to us (as was JAG and Army Wives). Not that the shows I watch are all that and a bag of chips.

I'm looking forward to Criminal Minds, Better Call Saul, Walking Dead, Worst Cooks in America Celebrity Edition and Shameless. Yeah, like I said, mine aren't very realistic either but I do enjoy them. there are many others but those are the first that come to mind.

Ladybug said...

OT I had written a response to I think it was to Kirkland, wanting to tell her how much I also enjoyed reading the Martian. It was a great book, believable, it made you really feel invested in the character and his attempts to stay alive. I don't know what the movie can relate portray this story as well as the book as much as the dialog was internal. Actually he did record some of it to a computer, so I guess that is how the movie will get around a lot of his internal dialog.
As far as Katie K. she is too far gone for any of those children to have a chance of knowing a mother's love. And I do fear at least several of them will also develop personality disorders if not worse. Though Jon does love them I do not think and he is around enough to counteract all the negative tapes she has implanted into their brains. I think it will be a sad situation for them as they become adults as they will not have the tools to be able to interact in appropriate manners with other young adults but I hope I am wrong.

I don't watch anything on TLC anymore. There is much more quality stuff out there as you guys have mentioned: House of Cards, Better Call Saul, Fargo, Grace and Frankie, Orange is the New Black, Hell on Wheels, Big Bang Theory, Modern Family etc.

Reality TV has peaked. Story after story comes out how the shows are faked. Even with a basic script, the self-absorbed amateurish "talent" cannot pull it off. I predict TLC will change gears in the next few years. We've seen popular types of tv shows all but disappear: soap operas, game shows, afternoon talk shows, etc. TFW was at the right place at the right time, but nothing lasts forever.

Well it looks like the truth has come out after all. TMZ is reporting that Jeff Prescott broke up with Kate because he felt she was only using him for ratings. He says that he felt like he was in a serious relationship with Kate and had initially agreed to appear on her show a few months back but when he realized what she was up to and just using him he broke it off. As I commented her earlier, the only thing she was devastated about was his not agreeing to film. Is anyone here really surprised one bit at this news. I know I'm not and predicted that's what this entire deal was about.

Ha! I knew it. If this guy would come out and call Jon- a guy he's never met- a deadbeat dad, then he's going to "set the record straight" on Kate.
Jeff was drinking the Kate Kool-aid about Jon.
Funny, DH asked me just last night is Kate was still dumped by the millionaire. I told him about her Tweeting that she couldn't have been dumped if they were never dating, and how it was so high school!
Kate was just trying to diss him because he'd rather bump uglies with someone half his age.
No doubt, that's gotta hurt.

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

I don't think you can call it the "truth" when it comes from a "source" close to Jeff, probably the same "source" that gave the original story to ET, exactly a week ago.

I still think Jeff(and his source) are using Kate(and her brand) for publicity and vice versa. Perhaps, that is their "business deal".

The last time there were any articles about Kate(other than the Bieber ones and the only one about filming in August on ROL) was back in June when the specials aired. Kate's name faded from the media over the summer. The new articles about Jeff and her not only get her name back into the public eye, but also inform the public that they are filming new shows.

Since TLC hasn't yet announced the new shows and Kate probably can't say anything publicly, what better way to inform the public that new shows are coming by planting a story that mentions them?

To add to my previous comment--

Kate also knows that any article about her will blow up her timeline, so it also informs her tweeties that new shows are coming without her having to say anything.

Although the articles may paint Kate in a negative way, it's also a way for her to gain sympathy and support from fans who won't believe them. "Poor Kate--why won't those nasty tabloids leave her alone!!"

Remember--"any publicity is good publicity".

TLC stinks said...

Too funny about Jeff. She can deny, deny, deny but we know how her brain works. The "business relationship" was all about agreeing to appear on the show. Period. Could it be he realized he was being played (nothing new) by Kate? This guy is no dummy. I love that this tidbit comes out after she tweeted there was never a romance (which, LOL, was true because she faked her interest). If the sources are correct, it appears Jeff is not going to lay down and roll over like others for the Queen. He may have also not liked her closeness to Steve. Three's company, LOL.

That could be true, but I doubt it. I think Jeff Millionaire was taken in by Kate. Remember, narcissists can be very charming when they want something. A guy like Jeff has a big ego. I believe he was attracted to her and benefited from the publicity initially but the negative publicity on his past marriage was probably upsetting...Radar was calling his ex for comments! On top of that, the true She Devil emerged. I would say she pestered him all summer to film.

Hollywood Gossip uses other tabloids and media as their source for every article they write. Then they spin it and throw in their own conclusions and interpretations.

The general rule for spoilers is to keep quiet until the next day; however, since it won't begin airing in the United States until January I would greatly appreciate it if we could treat any information about this season as a spoiler until after the episode airs on PBS.

I don't want to stifle discussion, but just please use SPOILER in the post to help those of us trying to keep in the dark until we have a chance to watch in in real time.

Re. fewer comments. Sometimes life just becomes a little busier or more complicated or changes in some way.

This year has been a year of losses for me, some more significant than others. The loss I am living with now is the loss of my best friend.

No, she has not died. She has Alzheimers. Having lived through it with my mother, I recognized the early symptoms a few years ago, but now it seems much worse. She still knows me but our conversations are much more restricted because of her loss of memory.

We have been best friends since I was nine years old and entering grade 5 in a new school. We share a first name and when the teacher called the roll and we both answered, this little blond girl at the front of the class turned and looked at me sitting behind and twinkled a smile. It was the start of a lifetime friendship.

She is the last person to have known me from childhood. I get to retain all the memories, while she is slipping away.

She is from a large boisterous Irish Catholic family, while my family was the polar opposite. But we had grand times together, many adventures, lots of laughs, some tears but always the knowledge that we knew and understood each other and we were always there for each other. We still are but in an entirely new way.

I got a note from her in the mail today thanking me for being her friend. I imagine her sister made that happen and so today I am feeling the loss quite keenly.
