Jon Gosselin Needs Money - Willing To Do Jon & Kate Again
Have you noticed that Jon Gosselin hasn't really been showing himself lately? Well, except for last week when he filed papers to try and get primary custody of all his kids. It seems that he doesn't think Kate is being a good mom running around doing Hollywood things. However, if she were to somehow see her way to wanting to do a Jon & Kate show again, well that would be ok. Jon is totally willing to do that and then she would suddenly be a good parent. Bad parent is when he doesn't get to be on tv. Good parent when he does. He is such an ass. The guy needs a show desperately. It is either that or actually go back to doing a real job.
I think Jon already had his chance and he blew it on women and a couple of trips to Gucci. Instead of these publicity stunts to try and make himself relevant, he should be spending that creative energy on his kids. Nothing more. Just take care of the kids.
WTF did these people do with their lives? I don't get the fame bug.
ReplyDeleteYou know, if he hadn't been such a DB with all the women and crap, everyone would have been on his side. Anyone who watched the show saw what a shrew Kate was/is, but, honestly, I can partly see why she was that way with him. It seems that he needs a mommy. Ugh...both of them need to go away and take care of their kids.
ReplyDelete"he should be spending that creative energy on his kids. Nothing more. Just take care of the kids."
ReplyDeleteThe same can be said of Kate. She's getting upwards of $20,000 a month in support from Jon. Why can't she stay home? Oh that's right. Because it's not about the kids, it's all about Kate and keeping herself in the limelight.
Amazing how different she looked back in the day compared to now. Now that she has access to stylists and such. Wonder if there was a procedure or two, besides the chest enhancement.
ReplyDeleteI am fairly sure I could manage to support myself and 8 kids on $20K child support a month. Where do these people come up with these huge amounts of money they "need" to live on? Most of the world gets by on much less.
ReplyDeleteAlthough we can't be sure Jon is actually paying the $20K, can we?
I saw an announcement that K is going to be on the Today show tomorrow and I thought "oh please, when will these people just GO AWAY FOREVER? Then I realized, never, as long as they can get attention from some media outlet. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThey are both untalented fame whores!! This won't work after all the crap that has gone down. They want the money they were making before, and jon blew !!! BIG TIME!
ReplyDeleteFunny enough, I support one kid on just a tiny bit over 20 grand a YEAR. Give me an extra 220 grand and I'll gladly take on 7 more kids. I wanted more anyway, but can't afford 'em. But I'm conservative that way. I live within my means.
ReplyDeleteI just sit and shake my head sometimes when I read these stories. Honestly, I'll take my quiet, poor, SANE life over theirs any day!
What evidence is there that Jon - a total fucking loser who was up to his balls in legal bills due to his impulsive, destructive lawsuit against TLC - is paying ANYTHING in support to Kate? I'll believe that one on the 10th of never.
ReplyDeleteOh please. The only reason he tried to get primary custody of his children is so that he can stop paying child support and start RECEIVING. He's in deep financial hurt right now, and has no one to blame but himself.
ReplyDeleteWhy would anyone watch Jon and Kate: A Very Special Divorce? Maybe he should brush up his skills at DeVry and send out some resumes.
ReplyDeleteThey both make me want to barf
ReplyDelete@ Sue - I hear you. I'm raising 4 kids with less that what Kate receives in CS in two months!. We live within our means, as well. We don't have credit cards, we buy what we can afford then and there. We don't have brand new cars and I budget everything. I'm kind of excited to see if we can still do as well once I get finished with school and start working again.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, yeah...I don't get the fame bug, either. I'd rather be hanging out here at the house with my kiddos than be on dancing with the stars. Why can't J & K just be parents?
Tara - I was on his side too, because she was such a witch to him, until he started his man ho act. Now I totally dislike both of them and wish they would just drop back into obscurity.
ReplyDeleteI've always thought that while I would not mind having a lot of money, I would never want the fame that went with it. You give up a lot to be in the public eye.
It's amazing, but it is possible to live quite happily on very little money. Just a few years ago (5, to be exact), I found myself retired for a year. Not willingly, I had moved to Oregon with the idea of finding gainful employment, which I did not (too old and an outsider to boot) and I took early retirement out of desperation to have a regular income of some sort. For a year, I lived on $867 a month. I had my own apartment, paid my utilities, bought my own food and medications, and once a week treated myself to a burrito for dinner. It was not that bad. So, knowing that you CAN live on that amount, I am blown away by people who think they need tens of thousands a month just to survive. They are no more special than I am, or Tara and Sue are, and we're much nicer people.

ReplyDeleteTara, I commend you on raising 4 kids. Are you sure you don't need to go on Dancing With the Stars?? Heh.
ReplyDeleteJon's an idiot. But Kate is the devil. I hope those kids get all the money that's theirs and J & K fade away into the night. Because if I were, say, Cara or Mady and found out my mother spent all my rightly earned money I would sue her ass.
@Patty, Kate's had a bunch of plastic surgery. There was the tummy tuck a few years ago (totally necessary in my opinion). Boob job and eye job last year. Veneers on the teeth. Some people have said that she had something done to her chin, but I can't see it.
ReplyDeleteI'll be angry if the kids are put back on TV again. They've worked enough in their young lives.
I never watched the show, but heard from those who did, "Poor John! Kate's such a bitch to him!" Then, when they split up and he went into his second adolescence (or was able to indulge the first one freely,) I cringed at him making a fool of himself repeatedly--"Doesn't this guy know what an idiot he is?" He ran through his money, alienated any support from the public, derailed any future prospects he may have had and now is reaping what he sowed (more than just wild oats!) Say what you will about Kate (and I'm no fan of hers, either,) she's at least smart enough to have avoided the pitfalls Jon leapt into headfirst. Too bad she's just so unlikeable a person in her own right.
ReplyDeleteDoes the Betty Ford offer treatment for famewhoring?
