Kate Gosselin may have to look for a real job in the New Year, as she has been dropped from the list of celebrity hosts on the upcoming TV show “Mom Logic”.
Sources say that Kate was “too controversial” for their audience, but I think maybe the producers caught her stellar performance on Jay Leno recently and thought twice!
Hopefully Kate sees the silver lining and takes some time off to spend with her eight kids!
Dec 20
Kate Gosselin appeared on a segment called 10 @ 10 on Jay Leno, in which Leno asks a “celebrity” ten weird questions.
Aside from the obvious satellite delay, she seemed a little scripted and reserved….
What do you think?
Ten years of wedded….bliss… has come to an end today, as parents-of-the-year Jon and Kate Gosselin are officially divorced. 
Kate will keep the estate home in Pennsylvania, as well as the couple’s eight children, maintaining she hopes Jon will still be a part of their lives (seeing as how he lives on the other side of the country, to what extent remains to be seen).
Of the finalization, Kate said “I am very relieved that our divorce has been finalized, and I look forward to the new year, focusing on the children.”

I wonder what Haley has to say about this new development!!
Jon Gosselin filed papers earlier this week that effectively put his divorce from wife, Kate, on hold for 90 days. In a statement Jon gave, he explains the delay will give him a chance to regain control of his “future and family”, and apologizes for his behaviour over the past few months. I think it might take a little more than that to make up for cheating on your wife, sleeping with the 22 year old daughter of your wife’s plastic surgeon, the baby sitter and even another woman named Kate….however, a step in the right direction and quite possibly the smartest thing Jon has done in a long time.
With the possible cancellation of the show, and a reconcilliation between Jon and Kate, I am starting to think those kids just might have a chance!

Be careful what you wish for, Jon Gosselin!
For all of Jon’s whining about wanting to be off the show, now that its finally happening he is throwing a bit of a tantrum. On the heels of TLC’s announcement they will be reformating “Jon and Kate Plus 8″ come November 2 to focus more on Kate and her struggle as a soon-to-be divorced mother of 8, and renaming the show “Kate Plus 8″, Jon Gosselin has responded by having a cease-and-desist order drawn up. The order prohibits film or production crews from setting foot on the property he jointly owns with Kate, and allows for the arrest of anyone who violates these terms. There is no word yet on whether the order extends to filming the children off site, as well.
On the one hand, WAY TO GO JON! for finally having the balls to try to stop the show and maybe, just maybe, offer your children some semblence of a normal life again.
On the other hand, its really too bad the cease-and-desist is merely an angry, retalitory gesture on his part instead of an actual act out of concern for his children.
I wonder what he’s going to do when he realizes he is stopping his gravy train……..

TLC has just announced what we all have seen coming for some time now – they are finished with Jon 
and his tabloid-loving antics.
The new show, to be titled Kate Plus 8, will relaunch on November 2 and take a deeper look into Kate’s new life as a single mom of 8 kids. Jon won’t be out of the picture completely, however, as TLC is retaining their exclusive rights contract with him. He will still be shown from time to time, however he will not a regular part of the reality tv show (kind of like his role as a father!!).
This news is not surprising, and comes on the heels of the show’s worst ratings to date: just over 1 million viewers tuned in to the last aired episode (compared to the 10 million voyeurs who watched Jon and Kate announce their divorce).
Will the change in format bring you back to the show?

If you are wondering what Kate on “Mom Logic” means, well let me tell you, it’s the title of her new Talk Show. She began filming her talk show this very weekend. 
There were a few guests in consideration that didn’t quite make the cut. One guest was Sandra Bernhard, the very famous comedian since the 80’s. The other guest was Tammy Lee Michaels who is a recurring actress on the show the L Word. I take issue with the similarities with these two women. Both women have made it publicly known that they are lesbians. Sandra is a Gay and Lesbian rights activist and Tammy Lynn’s partner is Melissa Etheridge. Considering what these two women have in common, I hope that is not the reason why they were discounted from the show. The show has been designed for Kate Gosselin, Paula Deen and guests to give a mix of advice, health, and beauty tips. I am sure someone of a Lesbian orientation can who is a mother can help give the same advice. I hope I am wrong on my hunch.
Now there have been confirmation that Rene Syler and Lee Woodruff have joined the show. The very first guest of Kate and Paula is Mel B. If you are wondering who Mel B is, she was the one who had the paternity suit with Ed Murphy. She is a perfect choice for Kate’s first guest. They both have experience dealing with immature men, and very public break-ups. Now rumor has it that Kate and Paula wanted Christie Brinkley to be thier very first guest, but she very kindly declined. There was no reason given. Stay tuned to find out when we can expect to see her show finally air to the public.

Kate without the ball and chain, is a Kate that is much different than the Kate we have seen for years on the “Jon and Kate plus 8″ show. Some say she is now a celebrity diva. She has appeared on
many shows to defend her honor like Larry King Live, Good Morning America, The Rachel Ray Show, and most recently the View.
There is one big difference with one of the shows she was on vs the others. On the View she was a co-host. Yes, you read it right, a co-host. Going on the View as a co-host is a high honor that is usually given to celebrities. I am sorry. I have a real issue calling her a celebrity. She is a reality TV personality in my opinion. However, there are a lot of people who feel differently. Differently enough to give her a Talk Show.
According to the rumors that are circling around the celebrity circuit, is the same media group that gave Ellen DeGeneres and Tyra Banks their talk shows is working out a deal to give Kate her own talk show. She would be alongside Paula Deen. I can’t get over that Paula Deen would run second to Kate, but so far that is how it is being set up, according to the rumors. Now I am sure there will be a lot of changes before they put anything in stone. Rumor also has it that this same media group is looking for women to cast for the show to work with her. The women have to be moms. Reason being, is that Kate wants to have a show that focuses on being a Mom. She feels as though there isn’t any shows currently that really deals with that issue as the main focus of the show.
The upside to her having this show would mean alleviating the need for having the kids around on television for her main source of income. The kids would finally have a chance at a normal life. This news will make many concerned viewers very happy.
The down side that also has to be taken in consideration is, what will happen with the kids when Mommy is busy with her show and Daddy is in NY pretending to be Hugh Hefner? At least with the dysfunctional life style they have now, the kids get to see Mommy and Daddy when it’s time to tape an episode. Any other time, Mommy is out doing her thing, either traveling, going to salons for pampering, or busy writing books. Unfortunately, the world knows what and who Daddy’s doing. Daddy as it is barely can muster up enough energy (probably due to a hangover) to play with the kids when it comes time for taping the show. But as we all know, he has enough energy to complain to the media that Kate gets all of the air time and that she always gets her way. Wait a minute, is Kate getting her way again, Jon? Wasn’t it just weeks ago Jon was throwing a temper tantrum that he couldn’t have a show about divorced Dads? Wonder what ever happened with that? If I remember correctly, he said that it had something to do with the network TLC and that according to his contract, he couldn’t go on other networks or something like that. But yet Kate is featured everywhere and is in the works to get her own show. I think someone was trying not to bruise his ego.
You have to be poised, intelligent, and calm to offered what Kate has been offered. Something that Jon has not displayed in past behavior. In my own personal opinion, I think Kate gets more professional air time than Jon because she is not out at bars doing body shots, dating and cheating on everyone she can, and running away from her kids to Paris for a “love” vacation. Then asking for a show about how to be divorced all the while complaining to the media about the your spouse. There are enough reality shows with boozing, sleaze, and dysfunction in it. Maybe he should approach VH1 about doing a dating show for him. That is more like his life style now. She also didn’t display multiple personality syndrome by yelling at the Paparazzi to leave them alone and then complain that she isn’t getting enough media time.
The question still remains. Is Kate going to be accepted by the public if she goes ahead with this adventure? Based on polls taken by several Internet sites, People watched the show to see the drama unfold, not because they exactly liked either one. In fact, it has been made clear that Kate is known to be the witch with 8 kids. But people have been known to express one opinion about something, but when the media waves their magical wand, people are instantly persuaded to change their mind. Advertising is so popular and expensive because it works. It definitely influences the public. The public has already been influenced by her new hair style. What would be funny is, since Kate done so “well” on the Kelly and Regis Show, maybe Kelly Rippa will be a co-hosting mom on her show. They are doing casting calls, so make it known who you want to see represent this show with Kate Gosselin.
Wow! PerezHilton.com shared these gorgeous photos of Kate Gosselin from her recent photoshoot with People Magazine. She is lookin’ fab!

PerezHilton.com is reporting that Jon & Kate Gosselin have filed for divorce!
TLC has been gearing up for a “big announcement” on tonight’s show, but it looks like the secret’s out!
We’ll update more as tonight’s show airs…
Now the only question is…how much will Jon’s child support payments be?!
New promos have surfaced for Monday night’s episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8 enticing a dwindling viewership to once again tune in for a “big announcement”. The clips show Jon & Kate interviewing separately (no surprise as they have done so this entire season), and Kate with a box of tissues talking about how they have been “dealing with this” for a long time now. Jon, showing off a new set of pierced ears, admits that he has changed and he “is now the person I know I am”.
Could they FINALLY be announcing what we already know, that they are getting a divorce??
Check out the video for yourself here. Will you watch or have you, like so many others, finally seen enough?
One of our members commented that during the Season 5 Premiere, Kate looks like she has had some work done – she did look alot younger than in past episodes! I did some digging, and as far as I 
can tell she hasn’t had any major procedures done since her free tummy tuck after the sextuplets were born (just one more perk that comes with exploiting your children for reality tv!). What I did find are rumors Kate has been using Resveratol, which is not surprising given its popularity right now. I saw a piece on 60 Minutes recently (you can check it out here) that talks about how it works and why everyone is buzzing about it.
Now that she is competing for her husband’s attention with a 23 year old, its no wonder she is doing what it takes to look younger! 
Anybody else hear anything about this?
The highly anticipated premiere of the fifth season of Jon & Kate Plus 8 will air this Monday, May 25. TLC says that the couple will discuss their relationship status and address rumors of husband Jon Gosselin’s affair with the much younger Deanna Hummel. I suspect everyone and their cats will be tuned in on Monday trying to analyze every eye-roll from Jon and negative jab from Kate, and we’ll have the full episode recap here for discussion!!
Kate loves the fame?
According to PerezHilton, Kate Gosselin’s brother, Kevin, and his wife Jodi (she appeared on many episodes of Jon & Kate Plus 8, as Kate would often leave the children with her) are confirming that Jon and Kate have actually been split up for several months, and are just putting on an act for the show!!
“The show is not reality, and has not been for a long time. This is a train wreck,” Jodi told reporters.
Kevin believes his sister is way too into the fame to give up the show.
The Season 5 premiere is gearing up to be the must-see-tv of the summer!!
May 13
Kate Gosselin revealed to People Magazine that her marriage to husband, Jon Gosselin, is indeed on the rocks due to none other than 23 year old Deanna Hummel. Jon has been linked to Hummel recently in the tabloids as having an affair, something the two adamantly deny. But the proof is indeed in the pudding, so to speak. Jon and Deanna were first photographed leaving a bar together in the wee hours of the morning. Since then, Deanna’s brother (and roommate) has come forward saying he has not only seen the couple together, but also (shudder) heard them together. As well, video has surfaced of Jon allegedly leaving the young school teacher’s house early in the morning.
For the past week, Kate has done a whirlwind tour of the talk show circuit, appearing on Larry King, the Today Show and Rachael Ray, as well as conducting several magazine interviews. During all of them she has remained steadfast in saying the family is as strong as ever. Her interview today with People Magazine revealed a different story, as she tells the mag: “I don’t know that we’re in the same place anymore, that we want the same thing. I’ve been struggling with the question of ‘Who is this person?’ (Deanna) for a while. I remember where I was the first time I heard her name. It’s one of those things where you can try to make it go away, but there’s blaring, red flashing lights.”

Star Magazine is reporting that Jon Gosselin may not have been the first to cheat! A source tells Star that Kate Gosselin was getting a little too close with her personal trainer, causing Jon to go astray (he has been linked recently to 23 year old school teacher, Deanna Hummel). As well, the source goes on to say Kate may be involved with her personal bodyguard who accompanies her on her book tour stops.
Was Kate the first to cheat, or is this simply a fabricated story to sell more magazines? It is Star, afterall….
“You can’t believe everything you hear”, Kate Gosselin tells Larry King on his program May 7, 2009 when asked about rumors of husband Jon Gosselin’s affair. Jon was recently photographed leaving Legend’s Lounge with 23 year old school teacher, Deanna Hummel. The pair have both made statements reiterating they are just friends, however since that time Deanna’s brother Jason has come out saying Jon spends nights at their house, and a video was released by Us Weekly showing Jon leaving their residence in the early morning.
Larry goes on to ask Kate whether or not her children are aware of the rumors. Kate replies that they go to a private school where people aren’t interested in that type of thing, so the children at this point are unaware (thankfully!)
“We are a family who did not set out to live the celebrity lifestyle….I am not a celebrity, I am a mom and a wife. I feel that Jon is having difficult times realizing that you can’t go to the grocery store without people whipping out their cell phones, calling everyone they know and taking pictures of it. He is dealing very poorly with it.”
When asked by Larry whether she regretted doing the show, Jon & Kate Plus 8, she explained the family and children have had good experiences, and that they have learned to “survive anything”.
Check out the interview in its entirety on here, on CNN.com.
Kate Gosselin appears on the Today Show May 7 and deals with allegations that husband Jon Gosselin is having an affair with 23 year old teacher, Deanna Hummel.
Meredith asks Kate whether or not being on the show is worth the tabloid attention, and Kate replies, “People are being paid to talk”.
Some hard questions are asked, and answered!
She also talks about her new books, and explains she doesn’t care if they sell, they were written so that her children know how she feels about them. Aww!
Kate Gosselin has been traveling often as of late to promote her books, Multiple Blessings and the brand new Eight Little Faces. Kate has graced the stage alone, delighting audience members with stories of her pregnancies, the birth of the Sextuplets and challenges that face both her and husband Jon Gosselin on a daily basis raising two sets of multiples (the couple also have 8 yr old twin girls).
While Kate has been traveling alone to various speaking engagements, Jon has been noticeably absent and during one of her recent trips he was photographed leaving a bar with a female friend in the wee hours of the morning, sparking a barrage of rumors that he has been cheating. So, it was a nice surprise when Jon sat alongside his wife in support on May 2 while she spoke at the Southern Women’s Show in their home state of Pennsylvania. Kate even cracked a joke that she was happy not to have to sit next to an empty chair.
Their mutual appearance comes on the heals of the infamous US Weekly cover story detailing his night on the town at Legend’s Lounge, and I imagine it must have taken a great deal of courage for Jon to appear publicly. Kudos to Jon for stepping it up and not making Kate face the paparazzi and their questions of infidelity on her own.
For a full review of the event, check out PennLive.com.
This is a follow up book to her very popular first book, Multiple Blessings, which was released in October of 2008, and chronicles the pregnancy and birth of the Gosselin sextuplets, as well as the emotional and challenging first two years of their lives. Multiple Blessings was so popular it was featured on the New York Times bestseller list.
The recent release of her new book has Kate Gosselin travelling often for sold-out speaking engagements around the US. These frequent trips have been the centre of discussion and internet rumors as of late, as husband Jon Gosselin has been seen and photographed several times partying late at night with mysterious women and college co-eds. I guess when the Kate’s away, the mouse will play!
