Uh-oh, admin! "Oh, yes, she did" has come out of hibernation, posting insider information on the other blog (under a few different names, complete with tags). Get ready for an appearance here! I wonder where she has been, yes I do!
Is this skank-wear? If not, then what the heck is it? They look like 50-year-old nouveau riche, plastic, fake-baked and over-processed Malibu-Barbie women who are desperately either trying to land a man, or hang on to the one they have. Pathetic.
I am so thrilled that each of you care to read my ramblings! &&&&&&&&&&&&& She does know many (most?) of us read them just for shits and giggles right?
Oh gag, came up for air to a) tweet her personal goodbye to George Lopez and b) thank her twiities by number to get that out there. She's just sooo busy - right. Look how much notice George L got, hope she's toast soon, would love to wake up one am and read that, literally, over my morning toast.
I am so thrilled that each of you care to read my ramblings! &&&&&&&&&&&&& She does know many (most?) of us read them just for shits and giggles right?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Each is singular. It should be each of you CARES. Come on, Miss Perfect Speller and Miss Perfect Grammar...get with the program!
I wonder if someone from the network bothered to tell George Lopez his show was canceled or if he had to find it out on the news like my narcissist.
Just as a point of interest, it may or may not be comparable, but his show started out doing about 1 million. When it dropped to just over half a million, they canceled it.
I hope we don't have to wait for Kate's ratings to drop that low before it's gone. It's hard to know sometimes what ratings a network is looking for before it's canceled.
You know I was thinking, don't most celebs tweet more often when they are out on the road doing something? Seems to me that's what sparks a lot of interesting tweets, celebs checking in from various places they are or things they are doing.
I only follow a few celebs, Tony D. is one, and he's always tweeting from the road.
With Kate she goes dead silent when she's on the road. A time when what she is doing actually might be mildly interesting, and she abandons twitter! She is way more likely to twitter when she's doing absolutely nothing at home in bed.
By the way, her tweeting habits are just proof that twitter has absolutely nothing to do with any desire on her part to provide the fans an interesting look into her day-to-day life, but rather, just a way to try to suck more attention toward herself. Twitter is for her, not anybody else. She said herself, she can't live without it.
When has she ever told the truth? I think she'd live without it in a heartbeat. She only needs it now because of the show and to let the sheeple know that she's still relevent. Once the show is gone, she'll wipe out that account so fast that the sheeple's wool will fly across the barnyard.
I wonder why Kate didn't get twitter when she was on Dancing with the Stars. It seem most celebrities get one for the show if they don't already have one. Jennifer Grey wasn't working much, but she got one. Maybe it was because Kate was more popular then, and she was busier. Now she's not so popular, not so busy,and seems desperate to keep the show going.
I see various comments on the Facebook TLC Kate plus 8 page that show interest in what happened to Ashley. I'm afraid TLC's ploy for ratings might work.
Jr. High gossip. That's all this next show's promos are. "OMG - did you hear what happened to Ashley?"
And the people who will tune in are the same people who rubberneck on the freeway. One quick glance at the carnage and then they're back on their merry way, with maybe a "tut-tut. Wasn't that a shame?"
It's like reading the rags while waiting in line at the store. You don't care enough to buy it but your curiosity is piqued enough to check it out before it's your turn at the register.
What I dont get is why the so called-haters know eveything kate?I dont search the web for anything kate.I see the posts on this site and thats about it.I see the 1st picture,,,I dont click on more...even if its here. I really dont give a rats ass to what kate says...or is doing.I dont care about what she wears...I wont look. I really believe the "haters" are adding to her attention.I think there are more "haters" than fans. You have got to let kate go.No hits will make her go away. I dont feel that I am missing anything by posting on anything kate. If we dont answer...and she has n o hits...she willl go away.
Kokomo, Cocktails and Dreams: All I can say is yuck, yuck and yuck. I'm not sure how old the other two women are, but Kate is well on her way to looking just like them. What an aspiration. I noticed that Kate's 'girls' are looking a mite saggy in that strapless number she's wearing. I predict that a new "good bra" is in her future.
Admin said..."I hope we don't have to wait for Kate's ratings to drop that low before it's gone. It's hard to know sometimes what ratings a network is looking for before it's canceled."
I think the shows are going to get more and more dramatic. TLC knows what draws the viewers now and it's not the kids. Kate's meltdowns and rude behavior are what the viewers want to see. She's like a trainwreck. I look for the ratings to rise significantly when the RV trip airs. There's so much buzz about it already. What makes me sick is this is all done at the kids expense. You can just see the sadness and fear in their eyes when Kate goes into one of her meltdowns. That preview was genius and TLC accomplished just what they wanted to. We all fell right into their trap. Kate will stop at nothing to keep herself in the spotlight and the money rolling in.
My theory on the money Kate (the kids) has earned is she is socking it all away for herself not the kids. She is setting herself up so she will never have to worry about money again in her life. The kids savings our secondary and my guess is only the 15% is what is being put aside for them. My thoughts are she is much more concerned about her future than her childrens.
I'll bet that Kate sure misses Meredith on the Today Show. Ann Curry wasn't fawning all over her. I watched a clip last night and when Kate was going on about her best friend going around the country to find her men the only response she got from Ann was a couple of hmmms. When Kate made that statement about Jamie it made me think that their relationship is still in tact. She was definitely pitching a show when she said this. She's so desperate it's painful to watch.
I'm surprised she's on the road at all this month. Didn't she say it takes her a whole month to get ready for back to school? Away from the kids last week, away again this week. My kids go back on Monday, when does school start in PA?
Is this skank-wear? If not, then what the heck is it? They look like 50-year-old nouveau riche, plastic, fake-baked and over-processed Malibu-Barbie women who are desperately either trying to land a man, or hang on to the one they have. Pathetic.
It looks like Kate standing with Kate in 15 years then standing with herself in 25 years. Bleached out, fake boob'ed, leather skinned women. Fitting end for a reality stahhhhhhh.
I was just wondering when Kate was finding time to prepare for school. Didn't she say to a local fan that she couldn't meet her for coffee/lunch etc. because all of August would be spent getting everything ready for school to start. She ditches her fans (the people she claims she needs so desperately) so she can promote herself more. NIIIIICCCE.......
"Warmth Of The Sun said...When has she ever told the truth? I think she'd live without it in a heartbeat.

You are right, she always lies. Normally, I would agree with you, but now, I am thinking that this is such an instant gratification for her. She can come on anytime and some of her uber fans WILL be there, and fawn all over HER. Nothing to do with the kids, SHE gets to hear how wonderful SHE is, what a super mom SHE is, such an inspiration SHE is, on and on and on. I am really beginning to wonder if this will be a permanent thing for her. Or semi-permanent. After the show is canceled she WILL need constant reassurance of how great SHE is! She will need something, she is way too insecure to have nothing.
ADMIN you are right, twitter is not for her fans, it is for HER. Her ego, her insecurity. She was reportedly in West Palm Beach and fans are saying "you are so busy with all those kids, we understand" LOL Sure she is. She tweets MORE when she is WITH those children.
Falling like a brick said...It looks like Kate standing with Kate in 15 years then standing with herself in 25 years. Bleached out, fake boob'ed, leather skinned women. Fitting end for a reality stahhhhhhh.
This is perfect! Exactly what it does look like. West Palm Beach is a haven for leathery skinned cougers. LOL
I have never posted before, but I find this interesting from hollybaby that a 19 year old is smarter than Kate. It sounds like one of Teen Mom‘s tiniest tykes might not be gracing the small screen for much longer. Maci Bookout is worried about 2-year-old Bentley growing up in the spotlight and is thoughtfully planning out his exit from reality TV. Do you think she’s making the right choice? “I don’t want to steal his childhood,” Maci, 19, tells Life & Style magazine. “I don’t know if being on TV in elementary school would be difficult for him. I want him to have a normal life.”
Although it might not be happening soon, Maci’s decision to leave behind her MTV life will be a difficult one, especially considering Bentley LOVES being on camera!
“He actually enjoys it,” Maci admits. “Bentley thinks it’s cool to watch himself on TV and to have the cameras around.”
But still, Maci knows that her $60,000 a season paycheck isn’t worth the risk of ruining her son’s childhood, especially when he is old enough to notice that his mommy and daddy, Ryan Edwards, are constantly fighting.
“I think there’ll come a time when he’ll be like, ‘Mom, we’re not normal! Why does everyone want to take my picture? Why does everyone know my name, but I don’t know them?’” Maci confesses. And although that time will be tough, Maci will decide what to do when Bentley’s concern arises, even if it will change her life.
“Without the show, I would have had to have a full-time job and be in school full-time, and I’d rarely get to spend time with Bentley,” Maci says. “It’s been difficult, but it’s also been a big blessing.”
Do you think Maci is doing the right thing by taking Bentley away from the cameras
Admin, is it possible that the school allows Kate to pull her crap because they don't want to lose 8 tuitions in one fell swoop?
*************************
If eight are withdrawn, there are eight to take their places in "one fell swoop." There is always a waiting list because there is such a low rate of attrition.
Someone asked about when school starts in PA. Public schools and private schools all have different starting times, varying by several weeks.

That photo should be labeled "Kate Gosselin - Me, Myself and I"
Maybe that could be the title and the picture could be the cover for the book she tweeted she's in the process of writing (yeah, sure).
I was just wondering when Kate was finding time to prepare for school. Didn't she say to a local fan that she couldn't meet her for coffee/lunch etc. because all of August would be spent getting everything ready for school to start.
*****************
If I'm not mistaken, a fan asked her to be a guest at a scrapbooking convention or meeting, and Kate said that she was busy the entire month getting the kids ready for school.
I notice that the sheeple in Hershey has been tweeting up a storm, telling Kate she (Kate) sounds depressed and they should hang out together since Jon has the kids this weekend. That one has stalker written all over it.
What is really interesting about this is that this occurred in a county adjacent to the one that is permitting Kate to trash Jon in public. (Isn't their drama being played out in Montgomery County?)
Neva kissed a talk show host before! ==== oh gag. And I never saw anyone kiss her ass more than that creep either. The entire interview with GL was a dud.
BTW I wonder who's looking after the kids while she's off grifting a closet full of skankwear in Florida.
mom2two said...I applaud Maci if she did say this. She is making enough to save or invest to help her out in the future with the boy. I don't know if she is going to school now, but she sure should be, while the money is coming in. Then she can go to work. It would be hard to do both at the same time. So,yes, I think she should take her son off the TV, way before he does go to school. The public is fickle, if they are not on TV, people DO tend to "forget". (Even tho Kate thinks otherwise)
I'm not sure what to think about the school and their roll in the G kid's problems. I don't think they should be whipped with a wet noodle for "letting" the kids miss school to go work in Oz because the courts let them go even though it was Jon's time with them.
If there is one insider-ish meeting I'd like to be in, it would be with the teachers, psychologists, and school admin after they have watched all 7 seasons of the abuse/exploitation and after last years problems. Plus every teacher Mady and Cara had there.
I finally figured out Kate-speak....when Dr. Glassman was giving her the tummy tuck and she asked for the boob job he told her to "get a good bra". After her boob job (which we all know she had) she said she "got a good bra" - this was her little dig at Dr. Glassman.
Kate would fit in with some of the West Palm Beach/Miami crowd as many are "wannabes" as in "I wanna be rich, fameous, thin, tan but most of all young again"!

------------------------
That WAS a vomit inducing show! LOL
I am sure the agency she uses dug up SOMEONE... OR maybe she has already made amends with her family? You know, "get to know the kids" while you babysit for me?
"Mom In Lancaster County said...I notice that the sheeple in Hershey has been tweeting up a storm, telling Kate she (Kate) sounds depressed and they should hang out together since Jon has the kids this weekend. That one has stalker written all over it."
This fan is really spooky to me. She seems so childlike at times. I am not sure, but Kate may have blocked her. She tweeted to Kate a few weeks back that Kate should 'dress better" and she wished she were Kate's stylist. LOLOL NOT a good thing to say to Ms. Know it all.
I HAVE noticed that Kate does not have the 'girls' on display as she did last year. That is GOOD. The way she was dressing was horrible. I hope it stays that way. Very poor example to those girls of hers.
I”ll bet that Kate sure misses Meredith on the Today Show. Ann Curry wasn't fawning all over her. I watched a clip last night and when Kate was going on about her best friend going around the country to find her men the only response she got from Ann was a couple of hmmms.
I was "just curious" so I watched that clip for the first time. The difference between Ann and Kate is SO striking, one a professional, well-educated, well dressed, sophisticated woman, the other...Kate! What an asinine story, Kate sending her friend around the country to collect men she can date. Would that be like a 52-state blitz of interviewing single men at the local Ramada Inns? I can only imagine what was running through Ann's mind. I find it demeaning that someone like Ann Curry had to spend one minute with Kate.
I noticed last night that when Kate finally posted her only tweet, a self-congratulatory, good for me chirp, there was not the usual deluge of replies. Far fewer swooning "tweeties" jumped in. It certainly appears that she’s choosing the late hour to avoid as many tweeters as possible and it’s working well for her. Even her 4 die-hards didn’t stay up for her late night dropping. Kate’s probably calling that a WIN. And today not even an early morning NEWS BULLETIN about how busy she is. Whatever happened to her promise (lie) that she’d always tweet her fans wherever she was? After all we all have seen that her pink phone has been surgically attached to her left hand.
"wryview said...What is really interesting about this is that this occurred in a county adjacent to the one that is permitting Kate to trash Jon in public. (Isn't their drama being played out in Montgomery County?)"
That website didn't even name who they were. The MOTHER told her kids about it and then showed them the site. Which was horrible. The kids would have never known if not for that. The husband did confess it was his site, in court. The damage TO the kids was done by the Mother. This is so different than Kate and Jon. She NAMES him and it is NO secret who she is talking about, on national tv no less. THAT is what gets me. Not sure why the court won't muzzle this idiot. I wonder if Jon has even asked them to shut her up. It can be so harmful to the kids. It really makes me sick.
Starz22: Do you know why the haters know stuff about Kate, cause Kate is transparent and predicable. Kate gives out enough info on herself(she can't remember what she has said, half the time)that a person does not need to follow her or watch her show, read her book, to know who, what, when & where she is doing, or not doing. Like I've said before, you have to read between the lines with Kate, her tweets, interviews, and even her books, to figure out what she is doing or saying. And also cause most of the so call haters have probably know or ran into someone just like her. They are wise to her, just as we here are wise to her. Her devoted sheeple fans, are clueless, cause they are just either like her or are jealous her, cause they wish they can do the stuff she gets away with, cause they did not think of it first. Haters also know more than the fans do about the person they dislike, cause they do not want to be like that person and will try to fix them, even though they know they can't. Like most of us dislike to hate Kate, and that is cause of her attitude towards her children, is what we mostly dislike or hate about her. If Kate went off on her own, I could care less if she got naked and ran up & down Wall Street for a publicity stunt. If her children were even there watching I would be all over her about being Ho, pig, bad mother etc. Granted, she would probably be called that anyway, but what I'm tryin to say, if she did her own stuff, without even a hint of kids, I could careless, I would laugh at what a fool she is, and leave it at that. But Kate always manages to drag the kids in, cause she knows that without them she is NOTHING! Fortunately, the kids are getting in the awkward phrase of life, and are slowly becoming not cute anymore. I'm not saying they are becoming ugly, just awkward and want privacy, that is probably why the 8 made the movie they did about orphans, in an orphanage, it was a message to Kate, cause someone said here that Kate was not very pleased, about their movie. The fact Kate said little about it, on tweeter. Most moms brag about their kids, things they have done, proud of them. Kate is not proud of them, and I think it's cause every time she looks at them Jon is looking back(all 8 look like Jon more than her). Kate even makes herself stand out(over bleached hair, over tanned,does not dress like a mom) as to not look like she is even their mother. If I did not know who Kate was and I saw her with any of those kids, I would think she was a sitter, not their mother.
The MOTHER told her kids about it and then showed them the site. Which was horrible. The kids would have never known if not for that. The husband did confess it was his site, in court. The damage TO the kids was done by the Mother.
_______________________
So it would have been better for the children to find out from their peers and others in the community that their father had this website? Word spreads like wildfire. Since we don't know the particulars on this, it's difficult to make a judgment. Perhaps the mother told the kids so that they didn't hear it from someone else. Just because he didn't name her on the website, the fact is that his photo was there. He was identified. Unless he's a mormon, he only had one wife. It was obvious who he was smearing, and the court recognized that.
I think that Jon is just letting her go on, knowing that she's digging her own hole. Why make a stink about it? Calling attention to it is only going to affect the kids. She'll get tired of it after awhile when she realizes that he's not firing back at her.
Am I missing something here? Do we really know for sure that Khate's in Florida grifting dresses?
It seems that all we know is that some woman on Twitter posted these tweets yesterday:
Ashley Smith ashn02 Ashley Smith Ahh! @kateplusmy8 in West Palm Beach meeting with designers #ElysaSuzanne! 11 Aug (10:13 am)
ashn02 Ashley Smith @usweekly @kateplusmy8 spotted in West Palm Beach meeting with designers #ElysaSuzanne! 11 Aug (10:24 am)

ashn02 Ashley Smith Gorgeous @Kateplusmy8 with designers #ElysaSuzanne! yfrog.com/kkekhnrj 13 hours ago (10:23 pm)

And today's tweet:
ashn02 Ashley Smith just went to #elysasuzanne's website...AMAZING! gorgeous clothes. Pick your own fabric and design. check it out! www.elysasuzanne.com 2 hours ago (Aug 12 9:40 am)
Okay, so WHO is this woman and WHERE did she get her info that Khate was at the store down in Florida?? And, WHERE did she get the photo??
Something just is not adding up here! I checked her Twitter and she's a nursing student in Michigan, engaged to be married next year. I see NO connection to that store in any of her tweets that I looked at.
So, HOW did she hear that Khate was at the store? Notice how she tweeted it and then tweeted US Weekly and E News, like she's pimping for Khate to get press. Then this morning, she tweeted a sort of ad for that store.
So, what's the deal? As of now, I'm not buying it at all. It just doesn't add up. We don't even know if that's a recent photo. When the tups' birthday episode was on, Khate tweeted something about the dress that she wore during the episode. I remember that some of us checked out the store back then. I don't watch the episodes, but I'm wondering if the dress that Khate is wearing in the photo is the same one she wore on that episode and this photo is an old one from back when she got the dress.
Anyway, am I the only one thinking something is up here?
No Regrets said... Falling like a brick said...It looks like Kate standing with Kate in 15 years then standing with herself in 25 years. Bleached out, fake boob'ed, leather skinned women. Fitting end for a reality stahhhhhhh.
This is perfect! Exactly what it does look like. West Palm Beach is a haven for leathery skinned cougers. LOL ____________________________________________
So Katie is muuuuch to busy to pop over to Hershey to meet up with a few fans, preparing the kids for school is just too time consuming. However, she is able to take a *couple days* from the drudgery of school preparation to fly to Miami for free cougar wear. She does have time for that. So I can't decide, is Kate dead quiet on twatter because she actually cares that she lied to the sheeple and didn't want to get caught, or as Admin said, she's getting attention elsewhere and doesn't need their adoration at the moment?
"Haters also know more than the fans do about the person they dislike, cause they do not want to be like that person and will try to fix them, even though they know they can't."
++++++++++++++++++++
Haters have tried to fix Kate? Who, how, and when?
"Kate even makes herself stand out(over bleached hair, over tanned,does not dress like a mom) as to not look like she is even their mother. If I did not know who Kate was and I saw her with any of those kids, I would think she was a sitter, not their mother."
+++++++++++++++++++
I don't agree with this. Kate is who she is because of the children. She wants to be identified with them. They are her meal ticket. She constantly refers to her eight, count 'em, eight kids. You even commented, "But Kate always manages to drag the kids in, cause she knows that without them she is NOTHING!"
She wants to be blond and over-tanned because she thinks that is the "look" that will land her a position in celebrity society and she thinks of herself as a perpetual 20-something in that society. It has nothing to do with the children being of Asian descent.
The clothing Kate is grifting looks like Ed Hardy wear for the Floridian Cougar. ;-)
At least Jon is no longer going through his Anti-Kate midlife crisis. Kate however is in full swing as she tries to 'get a man' - any man - as long as he's tall and looks like Steve and she doesn't have to deal with doing any actual work in finding him (not including purchased body work)
So Katie is muuuuch to busy to pop over to Hershey to meet up with a few fans, preparing the kids for school is just too time consuming.
******************
The Hershey fan is NOT one she would want to meet up with in Hershey or anywhere else! Read some of the tweets - @bigfanofkateg
I think that the scrapbooking convention was in Kansas, or someplace in the Midwest. It is that fan who invited her to attend, but Kate replied that she's too busy with school preparations.
saw Showbig 2nite on HLN & they went ovr list onebyone...Kate WAS NOT on the list! JaneVMitchell said all people...on the list had one thing in common..."all are narcissitic personalities that think only of themselves."
In what freaky upside universe is Jon the narcisist and not Kate. Goes to show you he'll never live down his Ed Hardy phase in the media no matter what else he does. Sheesh.
I'm all for Kate branching out and getting other gigs. It seems to me this is what Kate wants as she seems quite discontented when home in PA. She itches for reasons to leave. I saw the pic of Kate in the dress- doesn't seem too bad to me, but I wonder how she can claim a good bra has enlarged her boobs when clearly, she's not wearing one. Those things look like floatation devices. Kate should have just owned the obvious boob job from the start. She has done nothing but lose weight, eat poorly and exercise like an orthorexic, which does anything but enlarge breasts which are primarily fat. Duh. Can't believe people believe Kate's denial. Not how boobs work, folks.
Nobody likes: Kate looks just as old as those other women. And I would put them in the 50-60 range. Their skin looks over tan, like leather, hair over processed like straw, the clothes are something I see on older women, like around 50-70 range, not 30 something. I'm 52, and I would not be caught dead, much alive in any of those clothes, they are ugly and hideous, the material is ugly, for a scarf, curtain and possibly drapes, table cloth, ok, not a dress. LOLOLOLOL We all know Kate has no taste in clothes. Most of Florida has seniors living there, and they do dress that way. In the Midwest, I do not see that much of that kind of material. Even the young people don't wear ugly dresses like that. That is a Florida thing. Each region has it's dress code(if you like). I do not see women in LA dress that way, or NYC or Midwest. This so-call designer I have never heard of. Probably cause they only cater to the people in Florida mostly and tourist.
"This fan is really spooky to me. She seems so childlike at times. I am not sure, but Kate may have blocked her. She tweeted to Kate a few weeks back that Kate should 'dress better" and she wished she were Kate's stylist. LOLOL NOT a good thing to say to Ms. Know it all."
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
I remember that! However, she was starting a new job and only had one outfit put together!
This is another one who is really spooky. This one conducts workshops for teenage girls, lives very close to Kate, wants to meet for lunch, calls her "friend," frequents the same Starbucks, gets very personal, and appears to be trying her best to "get in with" Kate. Where do these celebrity hanger-on-ers come from all of a sudden?
mkbrownlow The Butterfly Girlz blog: Soul Surfer! http://t.co/v89tNKH(preview) @kateplusmy8 <-- thot Cara/Mady might like the journal entry idea - every friday
mkbrownlow @Kateplusmy8 Hope you work in some STARBUCKS today - say "hi" to the baristas for me! :)
mkbrownlow @Kateplusmy8 REALLY enjoyed the show! You are so fun! We know some of the same people...we should get together over coffee some time! :)
Red sky: Yes, Haters and people who dislike her, would love to fix her so she becomes a proper mom(and disappear), not a skank who uses her kids for her own fame, does crap/nothing and gets media attention. I disagree with you on Kate's appearance, that is part of it, tryin to look Hollywood/California/20ish, but think of this, you have a black wall, are you gonna where black or white, to have a pic taken of you, which stands out? Kate knows the way she looks makes her stand out, in her family. Kate does this for attention, she is not doing this for her kids, which is why most of us originally tune in in the first place was to see how and average family with 8 cute little kids, functions. Not see a mother become a monster diva and treat her husband and kids like crap and props to make her look good. How many times she has said: I do it for my kids, they are the most important thing in my life. NOT! That was all BS. Her children are props, Jon was a prop. I don't want to get in an arguement about this, that is your opinion, and this is mine. What I would like to see is those kids get off TV. That last episode of them Movie makers, had poor ratings, so hopefully, the people who have been tuning in are getting the message, about the kids, and are tuning out. If they do a once a year up-date, that is fine with me. Like a Xmas special.
NLAN,I too wondered if Kate is really in Florida. Not that I care......but I think that outfit in the photo is exactly the outfit that she wore to one of the DWTS parties (instead of going home to the kids). White denim jacket and red printed dress. And she had extensions then and was overtanned then too.
I lived at the beach in Fla. for 25 yrs.until recently. Nobody dresses like that, except an occassional tourist. These type dresses are on the racks at gift shops and are mostly used as cover-ups.
The dresses remind me of Lilly Pulitzer, and to be fair that’s the style in Palm Beach. I have a few dresses from Lilly’s in KOP.
Why these ladies would want Kate to represent their clothing is beyond me. Kate show is on the brink of cancellation, she has ruined every chance she’s had to work on TV in another venue, and I doubt very much she’ll fit in with the Palm Beach social scene.
I’ve always wondered why Kate stayed in PA, especially that part. I get the impression she wants to be like cast of women on RH of (insert city). But she’s not and just makes herself look ridicules. I have family where she lives and being from Philly the culture is worlds apart. Why didn’t choose to live closer to NYC, LA, or even The Main Line when she had the chance.
Kate only has herself to blame for the way she is perceived. She is a negative, controlling, and only cares about her own interests.
Warmth Of The Sun said...So it would have been better for the children to find out from their peers and others in the community that their father had this website? "
Of course it would have not been better for the kids to find out any other way. Not sure where you got that idea from my post. No one knew this site was about them, even according to the mom. He told her about the site. My point was she could have asked the judge to get rid of it, as she did in court. WITHOUT involving the kids. Even the judge reprimanded her for involving the kids, since no one knew it was her she was talking about. He certainly was wrong with the site and the sorry things he said about her.
The damage that can happen to 8 when their parents talk badly about them in private or public can be enormous. It can be done discreetly through the courts. No need for a big stink. I would hate for these kids to hear all these snide remarks she makes or read about them if they haven't already.
I have noticed the last few times, she has not dissed Jon AS badly as she has before. She even for once admitted he pays child support. BUT I wish she wouldn't discuss this AT ALL. It is for sure no one's business whatsoever.
so sick of her said... We all know Kate has no taste in clothes. Most of Florida has seniors living there, and they do dress that way. Even the young people don't wear ugly dresses like that. That is a Florida thing. This so-call designer I have never heard of. Probably cause they only cater to the people in Florida mostly and tourist.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Really? I have lived in South Florida all my life, so let me set the record straight:
While we have more than our fair share of seniors, I can tell you that they do NOT dress that way as a rule. Of course there are some women who might wear these dresses, just as I'm sure there are some in your area who may as well. I take offense to your generalization that all Floridians wear "ugly and hideous" things. Shame on you.
Moose Mania said...Yes! I have seen that other tweeter. LOL Her blog is just filled with LOVE LOVE and more LOVE for Kate. She has asked a few times now to meet with Kate and or the twins to get involved in a teen workshop she has. She seems like she wants to do good things with teens, but all of sudden she IS or wants to be friends with Kate. LOL
Nobody Likes a Narcissist said..I wondered who that lady was that was tweeting about Kate being in West Palm Beach. I couldn't figure it out her connection either. She certainly is advertising for the designer. It is odd.
Nobody also I seem to remember Kate saying that if she mentions a company by name, people think she is getting freebies from them or something like that. If she mentioned the designer, she must be getting something, I would assume. Do you remember her tweeting something like that?
Laurie said..ha the 'good bra' LOL That reminds me of this clip. A friend of mine sent it to me and said "Pre good bra" at the 4:20 mark. AMAZING difference. lol The fans STILL swear she is the 'same'. This was the episode too that she talked so badly about poor little Mady's teeth. Ugh Jon looks miserable.
A bit OT - my blood test came back positive for CD - oh well, not surprised...I'm lucky in that "I" am able read a label (snark). 'Tis OK. ONE thing that at least is manageable :) Yoko didn't even do vocal warm ups.
For the GT Cupcake girls a MUCH better ending would have been for Katie to have actually tried a gluten free cupcake and remarked - wow! these really are delicious! I should learn how to make these!
I think "I" would be a better producer... ;)
My Mom lived in S. Florida the last years of her life. She wore elastic waist short/pants/skirts and cute little blouses and tops. She was always tiny. (5'2" and "ballooned" up to 105 lbs in her 80's from a steady 98 lbs all of her adult life, outside of pregnancy when I think she may have hit 110 LOL) I don't think those "designer" thingees would have EVER appealed to her. I confess I saw a few of the residents in her retirement community dressed in similar clothers though. Kate - if you really are considering, uh, modelling these - really??? Oh MY!
Kate is not trying to get a man she is trying to get a SHOW, any SHOW. A bachelorette type show seems to be what she's after now. Part of the article reads:
Mike Fleiss, creator of The Bachelorette, seems a little less enthusiastic than McPherson at the idea. ”I guess it’s kind of interesting. I haven’t really thought about it. I’ve never spoken with her, and that’s the truth,” Fleiss said ”Seriously, it would sort of have to be a special edition of The Bachelor because I don’t want to jump the shark and do something weird like that. But if she wanted to do her own sort of The Bachelorette kind of thing, that might be cool.”
Note he said he doesn't want to "jump the shark" which is the new TV jargon for this show is so over.
What an asinine story, Kate sending her friend around the country to collect men she can date. Would that be like a 52-state blitz of interviewing single men at the local Ramada Inns? ====
lol. What's worse is she repeated that stupid story twice in the (thankfully) short interview. Her lame excuse for not having a man is that she's "known" and has eight kids and a crazy career? The real problem is her lousy rotten personality. If you send your best friend out on a cross country trek to find a man for you and she comes back empty-handed that's gotta tell you something.

Moose Mania said...Oh my. Please tell me this is NOT the newest trend. That fabric is horrid to me. LOL And it does look like drapery material. ====
Order two of the same material & make matching cushions for the wicker loveseat in the sunroom. :0)
Sort of off topic; I love watching the 'Golden Girls' reruns and I think their wardrobe from that time period was so classy (well, except for those gargantuan shoulder pads, lol). Those women always looked fantastic.
Of course there are some women who might wear these dresses, just as I'm sure there are some in your area who may as well. I take offense to your generalization that all Floridians wear "ugly and hideous" things. Shame on you.
=========================
I don't take offense so much about the generalization that all Floridians wear ugly things, but rather with the assertion that most of Florida has seniors living there! LOL!
My grandparents were of the generation that spent its days on the green benches on Central Ave in St. Pete, but that was many moons ago. Times have changed. All of Florida most definitely is not the last stop on a senior's ride through life! And I've not seen many seniors swaddled in material that was used as curtains in The Golden Girls!

What's really funny is that in her "workshops" she promotes courage, individuality, and self-awareness among girls (ages 7 to 18). At the same time she's buddy-buddy with Kate. She fawns over her and supports her in her exploitation of the kids, never giving them any decision in whether to film, with no thought to the individuality of the eight children.
If you check out the fabric on the designer's website, you'll see that this fabric is still being used. It looks like Waverly draperies. ------------------------------------
Yikes! Now, that pattern is really hideous! Plus, the one shoulder look is doing her no favors.

------------------------------------
I've checked this one out too, and she does look like another delusional sheeple. I see on her blog that her love for Khate goes back far. Yet, she is only new to tweeting Khate. I did see on her blog that she's writing a book, so I have a feeling that she's just tweeting Khate to try to get some more exposure for her blog and her book.
I find it a bit alarming that she supposedly counsels teen girls, especially if she considers Khate an inspiration and role model!

I think it's at 4:28, sideways in the gray vest. Gosh almighty. She looks like a young boy. Pancake flat.
No regrets - you're posting that xxxx said... followed by your own comments without typing what the person said. I read your response to my posts and thought...wait a minute! I didn't say that! :)
Who the f@#k cares about what the clothes look like or if they're old lady clothes. Who cares about the fabric or what ever else we think of her "modeling" this womans apparel. The fact is, she is still getting paid and getting hired to promote products. When is her gravy train coming to an end. Who would buy any thing she endorses? Does this designer think her sales will sky rocket because Kate is wearing something of hers. Doesn't she know that Kates one of the most hated people in America. This is getting laughable at this point.
oh my.. I watched the dentist video, and No Regrets, wow you nailed it...she def got a "good bra" and I agree with your interpretation of Kate speak! Not even those strapless glue under the boobie things can give her that much lift! plus they don't create size, and we have all seen the bra-less pictures...

I remember Khate tweeting something about just because she mentions a name (like Fig Newmans) doesn't mean she's getting paid, she just likes them. I've seen her mention what she was wearing a couple of times, but I think it was in response to sheeple questions about it. From what I have seen, Khate gets lots of freebies and does a TERRIBLE job of paying the designers or stores back. I even saw her tweet a designer name or company once, but she had their Twitter name wrong, so it didn't even link to the right person. Of course, lazy Khate didn't bother to check it first or be more careful in what she was doing. I've seen celebrities mention and thank designers and stores with tweets. Khate just doesn't do it or she gets it wrong. She's not even good at grifting, lol.
Laurie said..ha the 'good bra' LOL That reminds me of this clip. A friend of mine sent it to me and said "Pre good bra" at the 4:20 mark. AMAZING difference. lol The fans STILL swear she is the 'same'. This was the episode too that she talked so badly about poor little Mady's teeth. Ugh Jon looks miserable.
I never watched the show, so I took a quick look at that clip and the next few parts of that episode. Not only was the "good bra" missing, but leave it to Khate to be CHOMPING ON HER GUM as she's talking to the orthodontist! My cousin is an orthodontist and he would find that shocking!
Also, since this is the first time that I've seen these clips, I am really appalled at how she's making fun of Mady's teeth! First of all, my kids would never want cameras to come with them to the dentist. By that age, I'm sure Mady and Cara knew that all their friends would be seeing their orthodontic consultation on tv. I can't imagine any kid being okay with that! Then, add to that having your mother fake fun of the problems with your teeth on national tv! OMG, I really despise this witch! Not an ounce of motherly love, compassion, or instinct in her!
Nobody, the article about the Bachelorette was from June 2010. I've noticed a lot of Gosselin "news" gets recycled. Sometimes it's an article that came out a year ago but gets passed off with a current date.
It's just more evidence of how un-newsworthy she really is.
Same dress designer and same shoes as the current picture - but 1 year ago.
And as for her 'bolt ons'. How can anyone in their right mind not realize she bought her boobs. They are hers (she bought them) and they are real (we see them) but that's where her truth stops and the lies began. She had them surgically implanted. Why can't she just admit it? She can't be embarrassed about it, she flaunts them any time she gets. What a horrible example she is for her kids. She lies, can't ever tell the truth. She could admit she wasn't happy with the size, and wanted to feel more confident about her looks. That would have garnered much more sympathy than the pack of lies she spills out daily. I have a friend that was an 'A' cup all through motherhood and finally when done having kids she had them made to a 'C' cup. No embarrassment. We happy for her. But to LIE about it just reeks.
And speaking of twitter. Her M/O is she tweets when she's home and bored and ignores her sheeple when she's out being fawned all over by real people. She's so freakin' predictable.
Thankyou: No Lovein Philly. I have been to Florida at least a dozen times over the last 10 years, and that is what I saw in south Florida, mostly in the Palm beach area. And I did not say all, I said most seniors, most seniors are not everybody and I said region, which could be community, you live in. IN my community/region, they don't dress that way, I could go north, to wear the rich yuppies live and they dress way different then where I live and that might only be 20 miles away. You know I'm beginning to think that some of these nit-pickers, who probably only come here once in a while(cause your name has never been seen before) or are sheeple in disguise to start trouble or an arguement. Then go back to your sheeples and have a laugh or 2. This is my opinion on what I have seen in Florida, since I've have not seen any clothes like that here. If there is clothes like that here it is usually ends up at rumage sales or end of season sales, cause nobody would buy it. What might be popular in part of the country does not work in other parts. And if those clothes are used as cover-ups, then that is probably what I saw, when I was down there, cause they sure wear them everywhere.
Thanks for the laughs! Kate in the very near future if she keeps up her tan-obsessed habit. I could imagine her doing just that, as she sits by her pool.
Kate's face/skin has aged quite rapidly in the two years we've seen of her at the tanning salon or the beach.
Kokomo, Cocktails, and Dreams said...They look like 50-year-old nouveau riche, plastic, fake-baked and over-processed Malibu-Barbie women who are desperately either trying to land a man, or hang on to the one they have. Pathetic.
So true! Kate and those women are a perfect match. That's Kate in a few years!
And I did not say all, I said most seniors, most seniors are not everybody and I said region, which could be community, you live in.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
So sick...most seniors in Florida do NOT wear dresses/styles like that. Some might, but MOST implies the majority, and one will not find the majority of seniors dressed as ElysaSuzanne look-alikes.
Kokomo, Cocktails, and Dreams said... I am so thrilled that each of you care to read my ramblings! &&&&&&&&&&&&& She does know many (most?) of us read them just for shits and giggles right?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Each is singular. It should be each of you CARES. Come on, Miss Perfect Speller and Miss Perfect Grammar...get with the program! ********************************* You are correct, but Kate Gosselin knows NOTHING about either spelling or grammar despite her protestations and would have no idea whatsoever regarding subject/verb agreement.
Thanks for the link Sienna. I hadn't seen that picture. Yup, she's going Jersey. BTW, I was born and raised "down the shore" but my tan was from the beach and was not orange. I lived there until I married a military man. I watch Jerseylicious religiously every Sunday (it's my guilty pleasure).
I have to weigh in on this "most" seniors in FL issue....my mom and dad retired there and my mom NEVER dressd in those types of outfits nor did any of her friends. My MIL is from the Jacksonville area and none of her family dress like that either. I wouldn't classify the ones I've seen dressed like that as seniors as I said in an earlier post the ones who dress like that are "wannabes".
As I mentioned in my post earlier today, something is up with this woman (sheeple) who posted about the Khate photo in Florida. I'm just NOT buying it at all. I don't know where she got the photo, but I do NOT think it's recent and I think she's playing games with the "Kate haters":
Twtr_is_4_Twits Twtr_is_4_Twits @ashn02 Hi. Do you mind if I ask you where that photo of Kate G. came from? Is it recent or from last year? Thanks! 1 hour ago
Ashley Smith @ashn02 Ashley Smith @Twtr_is_4_Twits why are you asking? Are you part of the "Kate haters"? 38 minutes ago
Twtr_is_4_Twits Twtr_is_4_Twits Twtr_is_4_Twits @ashn02 Just curious.I hadn't seen that photo anywhere else &it hasn't been mentioned anywhere but on your Twitter,thought it was an old pic 10 minutes ago
Laurie said... I have to weigh in on this "most" seniors in FL issue....my mom and dad retired there and my mom NEVER dressd in those types of outfits nor did any of her friends.
-----------------
Have to agree, Laurie. My MIL lives in Del Ray Beach (next to West Palm) and would never wear those dresses. Never! Nor do her friends. I was down there about a month ago and I don't remember seeing anyone wearing cheap, Ed Hardy-like dresses - they really are terrible. Most of the women wear nice shorts, golf or tennis outfits. My MIL is in her early 80's and her crowd is anywhere from 70 and up. I don't know who's buying these dresses but I don't think it's the locals!
You know I'm beginning to think that some of these nit-pickers, who probably only come here once in a while(cause your name has never been seen before) or are sheeple in disguise to start trouble or an arguement.

Not necessarily. I think that when one makes generalizations and state opinions as facts, some toes are going to get tread on, which is what happened here. It may bring about some comments from lurkers who seldom post here, and these may or may not be sheeple. I don't think that they are.

There's a link on this person's Twitter page to a real crime story about a pedophile, who was a family member. Is she the victim? I've noticed that so many of this person's tweets call out others (with no proof) as being pedophiles. The tweets are among the nastiest and most accusatory that I've ever read from a "hater." Does anyone know the "story" here?
So -- is Kate or is Kate not living it up with over-tanned, over-bleached, and over-dressed faux celebrities in South Florida? Has it been confirmed, or is it just another one of those "insider" stories going around, kind of like the one who saw Kate on a plane with the twins when she was somewhere entirely different.
Thank you, E-town. I am in no way a sheeple; I read this board every day in the hopes that this farce called Kate plus 8 has come to an end. I rarely feel the need to post, as most of the regular contributers are for the most part articulate and fair in their views. I'm sure you would have felt compelled to respond had "Florida" been replaced with "E-town".
Here's a photo from April 2010 where Khate is wearing a very similar dress and the same white denim jacket. I looked closely at both dresses and although I think it's the same designer, it's a slightly different fabric:
Oh, sorry. I just realized that the last link I posted had a photo of Khate in the same dress and white denim jacket that was in the photo from the link that Sienna posted earlier today (the "jersified" link). Either way, Khate was sporting a similar look over a year ago. I still don't think yesterday's mysterious tweeted photo is a new photo.
Rarely do I click on links about pictures of Kate because when I look at said pictures of Kate, especially after eating dinner, I want to throw up, but I was curious about what you were all talking about. Um, Kate needs an oil blotter & fast. She could also use a leave in conditioner. Just making an observation. Yeah. And the tanning thing? She has officially gone WAY too far. Orange is not the NOT the new 'natural'. What in bloody hell happened to her? I haven't seen her in a long time, since the Kentucky Derby pics I guess, & stress, anger, constant UV rays, not removing makeup, heavy makeup, LACK of sunlight, vitamin deficiency, alcohol consumption, SO many factors can age someone.
Is it just me, or has Kate aged significantly? In a short amount of time? ~Hippie Chick~
I want all of you to know that the haters and sheeple just did exactly what they set out to do. They take peoples words and take it out of context and then get all of us arguing about it. Well, good, cause it just gave me the excuse to get away from here and all Kate Gosselin. I will not be coming back here anymore, cause of NIT-PICKERS on this site. This is my last message, and I could careless what any of you think, opinion is an opinion not fact. Just as some of you say things and claim it's fact, and that's ok, well you can have each other, count me out. Admin, you can bar me if you like, it's fine with me. I had enough. I found something more interesting to do. If K8 stays or goes, I don't care! Good bye!
My mother owns a home in a gated country club community in FL, where she lives during the winter months. There are multi-millionaires who live there, all very nice, classy folks. None of my mother's friends wear clothes that are like ElysaSuzanne's. IMO Kate dresses like she is on the prowl 24/7. I still can't get over that get-up she had on in the pic when she was pumping gas...you remember the one...white low-cut top, Daisy Dukes and 4-inch peep toe heels. That outfit screamed "prostitute". She looked like a whore on the Las Vegas strip, and she should be ashamed of herself for wearing something like that. I wonder if she will let the twins leave the house wearing something like that when they are teenagers? I'm sure Jon won't. There's something that I've wondered about. What has caused the change in wardrobe since she and Jon divorced? She used to dress very conservatively in dark, muted colors. She claimed that she did not like to shop for clothes, even to the point that Jon picked out her clothes when they went shopping in one episode. Somebody please tell me, what has caused this drastic change? Any opinions or insights? IMO this change sends up red flags indicating a mental health issue.
Nope, Hippie, it's definitely not just you. Kate looks much older than my fresh-faced sister, who is 45! She's only a year older than me, and, not to toot my own horn or anything -- but she could pass for my mother. The factors you mentioned can age a person so very much. I personally think stress, combined with too much tanning, drinking and smoking (again, only my opinion) are what ruined Kate's looks. Despite her nasty personality, I used to think she was outwardly quite pretty.
From mom2two's post of hollybaby article: But still, Maci knows that her $60,000 a season paycheck isn’t worth the risk of ruining her son’s childhood, especially when he is old enough to notice that his mommy and daddy, Ryan Edwards, are constantly fighting.
Are these Teen Moms really getting that much for a reality tv show?! I think it's wrong for a tv network to reward these young moms for getting pregnant at a young age.
I could see how some teens watching this show (and reading that article) could think this is their meal ticket to get rich and famous too, without having to do much except have a baby. They won't think about the long-term consequences of having a baby. It's not a guarantee that they'll make the cast for the show.
It seems these days that many of our younger generation is consumed with getting rich and famous, the quick and easy way, without having to do any real work or show any real talent. This is how reality tv has poorly influenced our teens.
Are these reality moms saving part of their earnings from the show for their child's future? Or, are they spending every nickel and dime to live the celebrity lifestyle they always wanted - plastic surgery, bigger house, better car, etc? I doubt it's the former.
Doesn't this sound familiar: “Without the show, I would have had to have a full-time job and be in school full-time, and I’d rarely get to spend time with Bentley,” Maci says. “It’s been difficult, but it’s also been a big blessing.”

I've been a reader of this blog for quite some time, and I'd like to point out that wide brush you're using to paint us with. I read this blog just about every day but only post occasionally.I'm certainly not a sheeple and, in fact, have never watched the show, ever. I have seen various clips on YouTube and that was enough for me to realize that the Gosselin kids were, and are, being exploited. I don't feel the need to post to this blog regarding how perfect my mothering and family are but those posts are, for the most part, interesting to me. I've sort of rambled on here but my point is that I'm pretty certain that this blog, like many others, has a readership that feels no need to post or that will only post infrequenly, if at all. /end rant

My guess is that there are many of us who read this blog regularly, even daily, even several times a day (!) and appreciate the intelligence of the majority of those who chose to post. Don't assume that those who post rarely are sheeple. I've followed this sad saga from the early days and left sheepledom a very long time ago, years and years. Blogs on this topic come and go - most of those created in the early days - both pro and anti the show - have long gone and it's because of Admin's wise handling of comments that this one draws a more intelligent crowd. And I personally like her snarkiness, too LOL!!

++++++++++++++++++++++
Nobody took anything out of context. Her statement, "We all know Kate has no taste in clothes. Most of Florida has seniors living there, and they do dress that way" wasn't an opinion and didn't require interpretation or or an analysis. It was black and white. Nobody was nit-picking or looking for an argument, simply pointing out that this really isn't the case for most seniors in Florida.
I think that the problem was that many of this person's postings are not written as concisely as they could be. That's okay, but when you're trying to make a point, sentences cannot be so convoluted that it's difficult trying to figure out what is being said.

I'm not so sure what I have been accused of saying, but I didn't complain about nit-picking sheeple and I didn't call anyone a sheeple.
Generalizations are sometimes funny. There are many who think that most people in Lancaster County are Mennonites or Amish and we all wear either soup strainers (prayer caps), bonnets, or bright blue or purple ankle-length dresses with aprons, and those gosh-awful black lace-up school marm shoes (which are actually more attractive than hooker heels!).
Re: Kate "could use an oil blotter" on her forehead. I recall reading that Botox causes this shiny forehead syndrome - was specifically in reference to Nicole Kidman. It does seem that whenever Nicole comes out with a new, stiff, face - she also has a mirror-like shine on her forehead. Have noticed this on Kate many times since she began to mess with her face...
Just one more word about Florida. It depends on what part of Florida as to the way people dress. The people in South Beach for instance would dress differently than say someone from West Palm. The people in Daytona Beach would dress differently from either those. Orlando -- on and on. Or that would be my thought. But yes Kate has several of those dresses. If I am not mistaken she wore one on the last episode that I watched which was school breakfast when she asked the children how they were to eat their lunch and when they responded she thundered "quiet," then go ahead and say it altogether, which they did in perfect unison. The children were trying valiantly to please. Bizarre - last time for me.
"Kate's face/skin has aged quite rapidly in the two years we've seen of her at the tanning salon or the beach."
__________________________
Kate has certainly aged at least 15 years in the last three or four. I'm not so sure that tanning, hair-bleaching and stress does this so rapidly, does it? If not, then what is causing it? I've never seen anyone age like this. Take a look at the photo of her on the right side (fork photo) and compare it to recent ones. Something is very wrong.
I don't know if my post went thru or not- it just disappeared!Sorry, if this posts twice.
Look at the 3 women in those skanky-wear dresses.Kate is in the middle and has no arms! There is a piece of blue material from the lady on the right's dress on the left side ,below waist of the woman to Kate's left. It looks like Kate was just popped in there to me!
I know nothing about photo-shop, so I am most likely wrong...
This is another one who is really spooky. This one conducts workshops for teenage girls, lives very close to Kate, wants to meet for lunch, calls her "friend," frequents the same Starbucks, gets very personal, and appears to be trying her best to "get in with" Kate. Where do these celebrity hanger-on-ers come from all of a sudden?

How do you explain to a seven-year-old that a mom films her kids sitting on potties, puts them on the laundry room floor when they are sick, or makes them lie in their own vomit on a fishing boat?
Or maybe you don't explain it, and you just say, "See what a wonderful mom Kate Gosselin is because she is a single mom taking care of eight kids by herself!"
I just couldn't verify the Kate in Florida story to my satisfaction enough to do a post, and then the person who twittered this started calling someone who asked a reasonable question a hater?
When a random person posts a Kate sighting, usually they don't have a clue there is such a large group of people following the Gosselins on the internet. You can sort of tell when it's a random person not invested in any of it. It's rather odd for just a random person to refer to people as haters. I realize that is a term commonly used in many situations, but it just struck me as odd. And suspicious.
Maybe she was there, and I'm sure we'll get confirmation of it eventually if she was. She is indeed quiet on twitter, which suggests she is not home, and thus, getting attention.
I find it so pathetic that the times when Kate twitters the most is when her kids are with her. Her kids do not fill her up. She always needs to use twitter as a crutch when she is with her kids, to fill the void. Being a celeb and out on the road doing celeb things, not to mention all the filming, fills her up so much she abandons twitter. Sad. Similar to a person who gets off on stealing things, instead of donating things. The kinds of things that seem to fulfill Kate are rather dysfunctional.
I see there is a little bit of a spat today.....hopefully we can just bring it back to a friendly place. I understand these things come and go sometimes and it always works itself out here.
I also find people here to be so intelligent, and interesting as well. It cannot be said enough that the posters here make this blog. Kate and the kids may be the reason we gather, but there's been so much more that has come out of discussions that has really been the driving force of the blog.
I am very proud that this blog has managed to attract and maintain this kind of sophisticated audience. I really don't have to delete very many comments so I don't think it's attributed so much to the moderation.
Speaking about generalizations made me smile. When I've been to Europe people always seem to think Americans wear cowboy hats and boots. I had an awful time explaining to some German friends I met that no that's not what people wear where I live. It was funny, and cute.
Then when I saw a pic of William and Kate in Canada wearing cowboy boots and hats there were all these funny comments about how of course the Europeans think that's what we all wear here!
Hats off to you, Admin, for making this place have a general respectful mood.
I get the feeling that the poster who got upset MAY be hard of hearing. I have a cousin who is deaf and 'types' in a manner that he's just following his thoughts. He's extremely intelligent but you wouldn't know it from his writings.
Maybe we shouldn't be so judgemental with regards to spelling and punctuation. Just a thought. Carry on.

In fairness, a lot of tweeple actually admitted on twitter both before and after that episode they were disappointed in Kate and leaving the flock.
Although the past year has been another frustrating one in the saga of a narcissist who just will not go away, there have been two major episodes in which Kate herself caused a bunch of sheeple to go jump off the cliff.
The foot licking, and the Sarah Palin camping trip.
By the way after the camping trip episode, I started to realize that the only person who will turn the fans off from Kate at this point will be Kate herself.
By the way I've always believed that boards can pretty much self-moderate if you play your cards right. I was on a very active board on TWOP awhile back that hardly ever had any problems with mods. It was proof that a big group of people can keep themselves in check if they want to. Aside from a few trolls, which I don't think really counts, you all take care of yourselves for the most part.
Just a brief follow-up about the discussion earlier about the father with a blog ripping on the mother.
You know in family law court it really is the luck of the draw. You get get a traditional judge who favors mothers and requires you to be an axe murderer before they ever take custody from you. Or you can get a judge like this one, who realizes that a blog like this is DETRIMENTAL to the kids. She called it "child abuse." Amen.
What Kate is doing is exactly the same as that father. He chose to publicly express his anger toward the mother on a public forum called a blog, Kate chose to publicly express her anger toward Jon on a public forum called talk shows and magazines.
It is the same....darn....thing. Had the luck of the draw brought up another judge, Kate could just as easily have lost custody by now.
She is so arrogant about the way custody turned out. She doesn't realize she just GOT LUCKY. She got the right judge who doesn't think that parental alienation is happening here. Heck their judge might not even believe in the concept, it's not an old one.
Thanks, but no need to apologize. It wasn't your fault. I can easily see how, from the way the post was quoted and written, that you would think that I wrote it.
++++++++++++++++++++
Admin, there shouldn't have been a spat today. Someone made a generalized statement and others corrected the misconception, posting what they knew to be true from their own experiences. The original poster left in a huff. It happens. I blame it on the heat. Of course, I blame everything on the heat and these darn long, heavy cotton Amish dresses and wool socks!
The left leg has been photo shopped too far forward, and angled incorrectly. I think she had that leg turned more towards the camera, nd now it's turned more towards the other lady.
The left leg knee and foot aren't angled correctly with each other, nor with the other leg/foot.
Admin said..."but there's been so much more that has come out of discussions that has really been the driving force of the blog." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have been coming here about 3 months. Commenting, and reading what you all say. I can honestly and sincerely say l have learned a lot about myself during these few months. People sharing their stories about lives and childhoods. Reading all this has taught me many things, one of the most important is, l am OK! lol Just because l was often told l was shit, everything l say is shit....is NOT true! I am as normal as anyone here ('cept for the odd shit disturber and sheeple) You have all taught me l am part of this world, and l deserve to be in it. Just like everyone else. You wonderful people have done more for my pschological well being than any therapist l have seen. Thank YOU! for your stories and thanks for the laughs. I really, really like you all very much. Cheers!xo
Eh I don't think it's photoshopped. There is a shadow from Kate's head on the white curtain behind her. You'd have to be awfully darn good at photoshop to do that.
Her hair looks like it does now, actually this might be the real deal. Especially since Kate is so quiet on Twitter. She's up to SOMETHING or other.
It's just odd there's not that much info out there about this other than this.
Look at the left leg...the coloring on it is different than the other lady's legs, and different than Kate's right leg. It appears to be more shiny, and have a flatter color profile, like someone colored it in.
Look how smooth it looks compared to the other legs in the photo.
And the shadowing behind it isn't the same as the shadowing on the lady with the same leg position.
Teresa I'm glad it's been helpful although I do think therapy can be helpful too!
I think when you're observing something that you know in your heart is wrong, to have a bunch of other people say this is wrong to me too, is very reassuring and does indeed make you feel "normal." Also, I think since so many of us have similar experiences with people like Kate, there is a common bond. It helps people to know our "Kates" were the problem, not us.
I have watched this show since the specials and I remember thinking very shortly after that, gosh I don't think this is all that good for the kids but who knows....a short time afterward, I realized I certainly was not alone, and in fact, the numbers have only grown.
It sort of went from a small group of folks saying this kind of looks like this is bad for the kids we're going to keep our eye on it, to the vast majority of people saying this is outrageous child exploitation. It's been very cool to watch.
Kate's tweeting that she's back from yet another trip and was 'working' and only saw the beach from the air. So there you go. I don't know who would spend upwards of $300 on a dress like that because of Kate, but oh well. She's so predictable - she puts out just enough info to get whip her tweeple into a frenzy and then sits back and waits for the adulation. And it never fails. Never do one of them question who was taking care of her children. As for the spat thing, I watched it play out through the day and I think it was just a simple case of misread words. The original post said (I think) that 'most of Florida has seniors' but it somehow got confused to read 'most of Florida is seniors.' I hope so sick of her cools down and comes back. I really enjoy her posts and I know most everyone else does too! Also, did you notice that Kate said she'll miss George Lopez's late nite laughs? I thought she put the kids to bed at 7 and was asleep 5 minutes after that. Isn't that what she said on one of her rounds of talk shows?
There is a piece of blue material from the lady on the right's dress on the left side ,below waist of the woman to Kate's left. It looks like Kate was just popped in there to me!
#########
I think what you are seeing there is the fabric on the mannequin behind Kate (between the woman in the gold glitzy dress and Kate).
I just took another look at that photo. I don't think it's photoshopped either. Kate's balled up fist is behind the shoulder of the woman on the right (most people would have their palm against someone they were hugging). She has confirmed she was somewhere there's a beach. The picture made me laugh. Her boobs look so funny! I figured it out - they look like my travel neck pillow. It has a little snap so you can hang it on your carry on and her boobs look like my pillow when it's snapped together! Haha! PS: I miss Kelly too.....
Sorry all, I should really say everything I want all at once. Perils of middle age. I watched an episode of Say Yes to the Dress tonight and they were promoting K+8 heavily. They showed a lot of the dramatic flare up and then one commercial (apparently airing Monday) about her tweet fest. And she looked AWFUL. Hi-def is not kind to anyone, but her cheeks looked rough and hollow. The makeup made it worse. That hair really drags her features down too. She is quite cute with short hair and not everyone can claim that. And she was stuffed into some satin pink tank top. She looks bad.
That's ok I blame everything on cowboy boots and hats.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
LOL, admin. Tell you what. I'll trade you. I'll take the cowboy boots and hat, and you may have my heavy, long starched Amish dress. Have fun in the outhouse, hoisting up the slip, dress and apron while swatting at more flies than there are bees around a honeypot!
My husband, with whom I do not share my presence here, was just upstairs exercising, and watching tv, which meant some channel surfing. i walked through and I guess he had caught some TLC because he told me that K8 Gosslin was coming back for another season, he sounded so surprised. I said nothing and he added he had caught a promo clip, wanted to know why she looked so horrible. he said she looked like she was heavier and her face, what has she done to her face? From someone who has seen or heard nothing about her in over 2 years.
So the witch flew her broom to Florida to what, discuss promoting a line of ugly cougar clothes? And couldn't figure out a way (read spend her own money) to make a long vacation weekend out of this? Home to a child-free tweeting weekend? Bettting Steve was not protecting her in Florida either. Circling the drain.
An entire trip to Florida and she couldn't tweet SOMETHING interesting about it while she was there? "Saw a dolphin" or SOMETHING??? Does she just not get twitter whatsoever?
I mean a trip is the perfect opportunity to throw your fans a few interesting tweets. Didn't she at least have a few spare moments in the airport?
Now here she is back in her own bed twatting up a storm about absolutely nothing.
Admin. I must say, you do a good job moderating this blog. Some people take things wrong when it's written down, no matter how much you try to explain something on paper. It's just not the same as a conversation.
I have to sit on my hands sometimes to stop myself from responding to some of it! It appears that the regular posters are adult and intelligent enough to accept it for what it is, and move on.
It is hard somedays though to think you can say whatever comes into your head, because a blog is really just a mix of anonymous people, hidden from view behind a computer.
My mother told me to never write anything down that you wouldn't say to someone's face!Works for me..
By the way, I made another mistake on my post about the 3 women in those waverly type dresses in Florida. I meant to say the blue material is on the lady's dress to the right of Kate, not left!Sorry,it's been that kind of day!!!
I thought it was interesting she tweeted that she's reusing backpacks for school. Some nonfan tweeted that it's probably because TLC won't have a back to school episode that will pay for school supplies. We can only hope.
Warm of the sun said: (I think you're responding to me,it's confusing!) I looked at the dress material behind that women, but I thought it didn't look like the exact same material, it probably is though. I didn't see her balled up fist behind that woman and thought she had no arms!
Her legs do look a little wierd, though, I agree with Mel.But, what do I know about photo-shop- nada..
E-town neighbor- you made me LOL!You must be one of the 'more evolved' Amish order who can use electricity!I remember those old out-houses when I was a kid, maybe 5 or 6.My grand-pa had a 3-seater and kept his 'girlie' magazine on a string hanging from the door. I brought it into the house and asked grand-ma what it was!!!!
Have to go and get some more ice for the igloo, damn heat flooded my basement.....
Hi, Theresa. You made me cry when I read your post. I'm so sorry that someone was so unkind to you and made you feel you are not deserving or normal. You deserve to be treated with love and respect like everyone else, and I think you are just fine.
I am happy you found this blog, too. There are a lot of smart, kind and funny people here and I was also happy to find it. I'm not technically 'normal', but there is nothing wrong with therapy; it is very helpful,also!
Hippie chick- yo're right ,Kate has aged a lot in a short time. That hi-def make-up looks horrible in photos sometimes! Kate has bragged about not wearing sun-screen,she has been eating salad-poor diet is very bad for you.
She maybe?smokes, ? drinks, poor sleep patterns, over- exercizing, stress, anxiety,tanning, disease/overall poor health, botox, plastic surgery,mood..Oh,Kate there are so many questions about you!
Happiness does reflect in your face,too.She has her head so far up all these celebs asses, that she has a shitty out-look on life!She has so many things to be happy about and thank-ful for, but she's not.
She may have thought the divorce was a good idea,but it has aged and sressed her a lot,especially if the show ends soon....You just cannot keep abusing your body,your body is still 36 and soon to be forty- things just change!
She has enough to live on if she down-sizes and stops trying to be a star. Her dream isn't at home with those kids, but Hollywood, which is really very sad, for her family.
So sick of her... I find it odd that the people who cant stand her are the ones looking at and posting about her twitter thing.Sorry...I'm not in twitter I really dont know the 1st thing about it.I wont make an account just to mess with her OR to see what she has to say. Again...I could care less.I just dont get why people who claim to "hate" her make accounts to do just that. I dont surf the web looking for anything to do with kate...I really cant stand the child abuser,so I give her NO attention. People go to the fan sites? WHY? Why track this woman down when you cant stomach her?Why talk about her hair or clothes? She is nothing more than a baby making machine.She got what she was after... I really believe Octo mom loves her kids and can give them SO much more than kate will ever offer the kids. Kate will stay on the air as long as YOU watch and comment.The divorce was what? Almost 2 years ago? I still havent watched a show or seen a CLIP...Not on youtube...or reruns....not even here...I will never give this woman any attention....She is NOT worthy!!!Stop giving her attention and she WILL go away. I cant comment on a show cause I havent watched any in SOOO long.I cant stand to hear her voice,let alone watch how she treats the kids.I cant and WONT watch a 20 second clip...I wont look at her twitter..if more did this ...she would be cancled. Wise up people and STOP wasting your time on her.!!
Regarding the photoshopping, as a rule specific body parts, arms, legs, are not individually added. We've all seen pictures of a head added to a different body, but to go to the trouble of finding two different legs and then adding them and getting the correct shadowing etc. just doesn't make sense especially for what looks more like a snapshot taken by a friend, not a professional photo. If that's not Kate and someone added her head to someone elses body, why would they mess with adding different legs?
If you stare at her legs long enough it almost becomes an optical illusion. Her right leg is straight and her left leg is bent at the knee with her foot turned a bit to the left.
"Moose Mania said...No regrets - you're posting that xxxx said... followed by your own comments without typing what the person said. I read your response to my posts and thought...wait a minute! I didn't say that! :)"
TO Moose Etown and anyone else. I apologize. You are so right. I was in a hurry and didn't post the entire convo. I WILL correct it in the future. SORRY LOL
Regarding the TV guide article for the highest paid they also note: "For the complete list of TV's biggest salaries ranging from drama, comedy, late night and reality, pick up this week's issue of TV Guide Magazine, on newsstands Thursday, August 11!"
I would bet she is probably on the complete list. I don't get the TV guide, I would be interested in knowing if she is on it. She lies so much, of course she denied making 250K. I bet it is that much and more with all the freebies.
Kate will stay on the air as long as YOU watch and comment.The divorce was what? Almost 2 years ago? I still havent watched a show or seen a CLIP...Not on youtube...or reruns....not even here...I will never give this woman any attention....She is NOT worthy!!!Stop giving her attention and she WILL go away
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
But you're reading here and posting here, and therefore giving her attention.
Khate popped back on Twitter a little before 11 pm last night and said she had to put away groceries. Then, she came back a half hour later, around 11:35 and did over 60 tweets over the next hour.
She's back on Twitter now, already up to around 30 tweets. Of course, that's after she complained about having so much to do. I saw this coming, I predict she will be tweeting like crazy all weekend since she's home alone and she has to get them excited for Monday's show.
I don't think that dress pic is photoshopped, but I do think something isn't adding up as far as the woman in Michigan who posted it. When Kate came on Twitter last night, she tweeted it again:
ashn02 Ashley Smith @Kateplusmy8 love this pic of you and #ElysaSuzanne! Gorgeous girls! yfrog.com/kf3x2kbj
-------------
I see no connection between her and the store, or the store owners. I just am wondering where she got that photo and how recent or old it is. Something still is not adding up.
Btw, she follows Khate, although I hadn't seen her tweeting Khate until she had that photo to tweet. In checking her Twitter out, I see she's a nursing student, getting married next year, claims to be into exercise and nutrition, tweets about her workouts at the gym a lot, called herself "fat" and is dieting for the wedding, but recently answered someone's tweet by saying she got down to a size 1/2 during marathon training, and is now a size 4 but she wants to be a size 2 for the wedding. (Oh, and she's tweeted photos of her dinner - a salad!)
"I find it odd that the people who cant stand her are the ones looking at and posting about her twitter thing.Sorry...I'm not in twitter I really dont know the 1st thing about it."
______
Similarly, I find it odd that people who can't stand her take the time to post on blogs telling others that THEY find it odd that people post on blogs and should WISE UP and not waste time on her!!
Red sky and Oddities... I do post here b/c I enjoy this blog.I find the people here smart and entertaining.I just didnt run into kate a year ago.I have watched from the 1st special...then the next then to the series. AND yes I find it odd that people who dont like her comment on everyting she does or wears.Again...like I said...If my words sting thats YOUR problem.Its your guilt that keeps you watching...I dont watch and I want the kids to have privacy.I wont and havent watched for years ( the divorce) now.Not on youtube or anything else.What kate does I dont care.When the kids are being forced to work...I care. I dont come here to attack people.I believe all have a right to thier opinion.I just question them from time to time.If you cant stand her WHY give her any attention ? Why comment on her shows? her shirts? her pants? her shorts? where she parks? who she see's? The kids didnt sign up for this.When they are being worked to death...I'm gonna say something! I'm not wasting my time on her...I'm trying to get the kids some privacy!Each to thier own I guess!
350 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 350 of 350 Newer› Newest»Uh-oh, admin! "Oh, yes, she did" has come out of hibernation, posting insider information on the other blog (under a few different names, complete with tags). Get ready for an appearance here!
I wonder where she has been, yes I do!
Is this skank-wear? If not, then what the heck is it? They look like 50-year-old nouveau riche, plastic, fake-baked and over-processed Malibu-Barbie women who are desperately either trying to land a man, or hang on to the one they have. Pathetic.

I am so thrilled that each of you care to read my ramblings!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
She does know many (most?) of us read them just for shits and giggles right?
Oh gag, came up for air to a) tweet her personal goodbye to George Lopez and b) thank her twiities by number to get that out there. She's just sooo busy - right.
Look how much notice George L got, hope she's toast soon, would love to wake up one am and read that, literally, over my morning toast.
I am so thrilled that each of you care to read my ramblings!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
She does know many (most?) of us read them just for shits and giggles right?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Each is singular. It should be each of you CARES. Come on, Miss Perfect Speller and Miss Perfect Grammar...get with the program!
I wonder if someone from the network bothered to tell George Lopez his show was canceled or if he had to find it out on the news like my narcissist.
Just as a point of interest, it may or may not be comparable, but his show started out doing about 1 million. When it dropped to just over half a million, they canceled it.
I hope we don't have to wait for Kate's ratings to drop that low before it's gone. It's hard to know sometimes what ratings a network is looking for before it's canceled.
You know I was thinking, don't most celebs tweet more often when they are out on the road doing something? Seems to me that's what sparks a lot of interesting tweets, celebs checking in from various places they are or things they are doing.
I only follow a few celebs, Tony D. is one, and he's always tweeting from the road.
With Kate she goes dead silent when she's on the road. A time when what she is doing actually might be mildly interesting, and she abandons twitter! She is way more likely to twitter when she's doing absolutely nothing at home in bed.
By the way, her tweeting habits are just proof that twitter has absolutely nothing to do with any desire on her part to provide the fans an interesting look into her day-to-day life, but rather, just a way to try to suck more attention toward herself. Twitter is for her, not anybody else. She said herself, she can't live without it.
She said herself, she can't live without it.
==========
When has she ever told the truth? I think she'd live without it in a heartbeat. She only needs it now because of the show and to let the sheeple know that she's still relevent. Once the show is gone, she'll wipe out that account so fast that the sheeple's wool will fly across the barnyard.
I wonder why Kate didn't get twitter when she was on Dancing with the Stars. It seem most celebrities get one for the show if they don't already have one. Jennifer Grey wasn't working much, but she got one. Maybe it was because Kate was more popular then, and she was busier. Now she's not so popular, not so busy,and seems desperate to keep the show going.
I see various comments on the Facebook TLC Kate plus 8 page that show interest in what happened to Ashley. I'm afraid TLC's ploy for ratings might work.
Jr. High gossip. That's all this next show's promos are. "OMG - did you hear what happened to Ashley?"
And the people who will tune in are the same people who rubberneck on the freeway. One quick
glance at the carnage and then they're back on their merry way, with maybe a "tut-tut. Wasn't that a shame?"
It's like reading the rags while waiting in line at the store. You don't care enough to buy it but your curiosity is piqued enough to check it out before it's your turn at the register.
What I dont get is why the so called-haters know eveything kate?I dont search the web for anything kate.I see the posts on this site and thats about it.I see the 1st picture,,,I dont click on more...even if its here.
I really dont give a rats ass to what kate says...or is doing.I dont care about what she wears...I wont look.
I really believe the "haters" are adding to her attention.I think there are more "haters" than fans.
You have got to let kate go.No hits will make her go away.
I dont feel that I am missing anything by posting on anything kate.
If we dont answer...and she has n o hits...she willl go away.
Kokomo, Cocktails and Dreams:
All I can say is yuck, yuck and yuck. I'm not sure how old the other two women are, but Kate is well on her way to looking just like them. What an aspiration.
I noticed that Kate's 'girls' are looking a mite saggy in that strapless number she's wearing. I predict that a new "good bra" is in her future.
Admin said..."I hope we don't have to wait for Kate's ratings to drop that low before it's gone. It's hard to know sometimes what ratings a network is looking for before it's canceled."
I think the shows are going to get more and more dramatic. TLC knows what draws the viewers now and it's not the kids. Kate's meltdowns and rude behavior are what the viewers want to see. She's like a trainwreck. I look for the ratings to rise significantly when the RV trip airs. There's so much buzz about it already. What makes me sick is this is all done at the kids expense. You can just see the sadness and fear in their eyes when Kate goes into one of her meltdowns. That preview was genius and TLC accomplished just what they wanted to. We all fell right into their trap. Kate will stop at nothing to keep herself in the spotlight and the money rolling in.
My theory on the money Kate (the kids) has earned is she is socking it all away for herself not the kids. She is setting herself up so she will never have to worry about money again in her life. The kids savings our secondary and my guess is only the 15% is what is being put aside for them. My thoughts are she is much more concerned about her future than her childrens.
I'll bet that Kate sure misses Meredith on the Today Show. Ann Curry wasn't fawning all over her. I watched a clip last night and when Kate was going on about her best friend going around the country to find her men the only response she got from Ann was a couple of hmmms. When Kate made that statement about Jamie it made me think that their relationship is still in tact. She was definitely pitching a show when she said this. She's so desperate it's painful to watch.
ncgirl:
I predict that ratings will be up for that episode because of the teasers, plus people love drama and want to see Kate show her ass...again.
Admin, is it possible that the school allows Kate to pull her crap because they don't want to lose 8 tuitions in one fell swoop?
I'm surprised she's on the road at all this month. Didn't she say it takes her a whole month to get ready for back to school? Away from the kids last week, away again this week. My kids go back on Monday, when does school start in PA?

It looks like Kate standing with Kate in 15 years then standing with herself in 25 years. Bleached out, fake boob'ed, leather skinned women. Fitting end for a reality stahhhhhhh.
I was just wondering when Kate was finding time to prepare for school.
Didn't she say to a local fan that she couldn't meet her for coffee/lunch etc. because all of August would be spent getting everything ready for school to start.
She ditches her fans (the people she claims she needs so desperately) so she can promote herself more. NIIIIICCCE.......
"Warmth Of The Sun said...When has she ever told the truth? I think she'd live without it in a heartbeat.

You are right, she always lies. Normally, I would agree with you, but now, I am thinking that this is such an instant gratification for her. She can come on anytime and some of her uber fans WILL be there, and fawn all over HER. Nothing to do with the kids, SHE gets to hear how wonderful SHE is, what a super mom SHE is, such an inspiration SHE is, on and on and on. I am really beginning to wonder if this will be a permanent thing for her. Or semi-permanent. After the show is canceled she WILL need constant reassurance of how great SHE is! She will need something, she is way too insecure to have nothing.
ADMIN you are right, twitter is not for her fans, it is for HER. Her ego, her insecurity. She was reportedly in West Palm Beach and fans are saying "you are so busy with all those kids, we understand" LOL Sure she is. She tweets MORE when she is WITH those children.
Falling like a brick said...It looks like Kate standing with Kate in 15 years then standing with herself in 25 years. Bleached out, fake boob'ed, leather skinned women. Fitting end for a reality stahhhhhhh.
This is perfect! Exactly what it does look like. West Palm Beach is a haven for leathery skinned cougers. LOL
I have never posted before, but I find this interesting from hollybaby that a 19 year old is smarter than Kate.
It sounds like one of Teen Mom‘s tiniest tykes might not be gracing the small screen for much longer. Maci Bookout is worried about 2-year-old Bentley growing up in the spotlight and is thoughtfully planning out his exit from reality TV. Do you think she’s making the right choice?
“I don’t want to steal his childhood,” Maci, 19, tells Life & Style magazine. “I don’t know if being on TV in elementary school would be difficult for him. I want him to have a normal life.”
Although it might not be happening soon, Maci’s decision to leave behind her MTV life will be a difficult one, especially considering Bentley LOVES being on camera!
“He actually enjoys it,” Maci admits. “Bentley thinks it’s cool to watch himself on TV and to have the cameras around.”
But still, Maci knows that her $60,000 a season paycheck isn’t worth the risk of ruining her son’s childhood, especially when he is old enough to notice that his mommy and daddy, Ryan Edwards, are constantly fighting.
“I think there’ll come a time when he’ll be like, ‘Mom, we’re not normal! Why does everyone want to take my picture? Why does everyone know my name, but I don’t know them?’” Maci confesses. And although that time will be tough, Maci will decide what to do when Bentley’s concern arises, even if it will change her life.
“Without the show, I would have had to have a full-time job and be in school full-time, and I’d rarely get to spend time with Bentley,” Maci says. “It’s been difficult, but it’s also been a big blessing.”
Do you think Maci is doing the right thing by taking Bentley away from the cameras
She's such a c word said...
Admin, is it possible that the school allows Kate to pull her crap because they don't want to lose 8 tuitions in one fell swoop?
*************************
If eight are withdrawn, there are eight to take their places in "one fell swoop." There is always a waiting list because there is such a low rate of attrition.
Someone asked about when school starts in PA. Public schools and private schools all have different starting times, varying by several weeks.

That photo should be labeled "Kate Gosselin - Me, Myself and I"
Maybe that could be the title and the picture could be the cover for the book she tweeted she's in the process of writing (yeah, sure).
These sheeple are so funny! Now Kate's supposed to be an employment liason:

Falling like a brick said...
I was just wondering when Kate was finding time to prepare for school.
Didn't she say to a local fan that she couldn't meet her for coffee/lunch etc. because all of August would be spent getting everything ready for school to start.
*****************
If I'm not mistaken, a fan asked her to be a guest at a scrapbooking convention or meeting, and Kate said that she was busy the entire month getting the kids ready for school.
I notice that the sheeple in Hershey has been tweeting up a storm, telling Kate she (Kate) sounds depressed and they should hang out together since Jon has the kids this weekend. That one has stalker written all over it.
The kids go back to school August 25.

oh gag. And I never saw anyone kiss her ass more than that creep either. The entire interview with GL was a dud.
BTW I wonder who's looking after the kids while she's off grifting a closet full of skankwear in Florida.
mom2two said...I applaud Maci if she did say this. She is making enough to save or invest to help her out in the future with the boy. I don't know if she is going to school now, but she sure should be, while the money is coming in. Then she can go to work. It would be hard to do both at the same time. So,yes, I think she should take her son off the TV, way before he does go to school. The public is fickle, if they are not on TV, people DO tend to "forget". (Even tho Kate thinks otherwise)
I'm not sure what to think about the school and their roll in the G kid's problems. I don't think they should be whipped with a wet noodle for "letting" the kids miss school to go work in Oz because the courts let them go even though it was Jon's time with them.
If there is one insider-ish meeting I'd like to be in, it would be with the teachers, psychologists, and school admin after they have watched all 7 seasons of the abuse/exploitation and after last years problems. Plus every teacher Mady and Cara had there.
I wonder if their teachers watch the show?
I finally figured out Kate-speak....when Dr. Glassman was giving her the tummy tuck and she asked for the boob job he told her to "get a good bra". After her boob job (which we all know she had) she said she "got a good bra" - this was her little dig at Dr. Glassman.
Kate would fit in with some of the West Palm Beach/Miami crowd as many are "wannabes" as in "I wanna be rich, fameous, thin, tan but most of all young again"!

So funny!
"Mom In Lancaster County said...I notice that the sheeple in Hershey has been tweeting up a storm, telling Kate she (Kate) sounds depressed and they should hang out together since Jon has the kids this weekend. That one has stalker written all over it."
This fan is really spooky to me. She seems so childlike at times. I am not sure, but Kate may have blocked her. She tweeted to Kate a few weeks back that Kate should 'dress better" and she wished she were Kate's stylist. LOLOL NOT a good thing to say to Ms. Know it all.
I HAVE noticed that Kate does not have the 'girls' on display as she did last year. That is GOOD. The way she was dressing was horrible. I hope it stays that way. Very poor example to those girls of hers.
I”ll bet that Kate sure misses Meredith on the Today Show. Ann Curry wasn't fawning all over her. I watched a clip last night and when Kate was going on about her best friend going around the country to find her men the only response she got from Ann was a couple of hmmms.
I was "just curious" so I watched that clip for the first time. The difference between Ann and Kate is SO striking, one a professional, well-educated, well dressed, sophisticated woman, the other...Kate! What an asinine story, Kate sending her friend around the country to collect men she can date. Would that be like a 52-state blitz of interviewing single men at the local Ramada Inns? I can only imagine what was running through Ann's mind. I find it demeaning that someone like Ann Curry had to spend one minute with Kate.
I noticed last night that when Kate finally posted her only tweet, a self-congratulatory, good for me chirp, there was not the usual deluge of replies. Far fewer swooning "tweeties" jumped in. It certainly appears that she’s choosing the late hour to avoid as many tweeters as possible and it’s working well for her. Even her 4 die-hards didn’t stay up for her late night dropping. Kate’s probably calling that a WIN. And today not even an early morning NEWS BULLETIN about how busy she is. Whatever happened to her promise (lie) that she’d always tweet her fans wherever she was? After all we all have seen that her pink phone has been surgically attached to her left hand.
"wryview said...What is really interesting about this is that this occurred in a county adjacent to the one that is permitting Kate to trash Jon in public. (Isn't their drama being played out in Montgomery County?)"
That website didn't even name who they were. The MOTHER told her kids about it and then showed them the site. Which was horrible. The kids would have never known if not for that. The husband did confess it was his site, in court. The damage TO the kids was done by the Mother. This is so different than Kate and Jon. She NAMES him and it is NO secret who she is talking about, on national tv no less. THAT is what gets me. Not sure why the court won't muzzle this idiot. I wonder if Jon has even asked them to shut her up. It can be so harmful to the kids. It really makes me sick.
Starz22: Do you know why the haters know stuff about Kate, cause Kate is transparent and predicable. Kate gives out enough info on herself(she can't remember what she has said, half the time)that a person does not need to follow her or watch her show, read her book, to know who, what, when & where she is doing, or not doing. Like I've said before, you have to read between the lines with Kate, her tweets, interviews, and even her books, to figure out what she is doing or saying. And also cause most of the so call haters have probably know or ran into someone just like her. They are wise to her, just as we here are wise to her. Her devoted sheeple fans, are clueless, cause they are just either like her or are jealous her, cause they wish they can do the stuff she gets away with, cause they did not think of it first. Haters also know more than the fans do about the person they dislike, cause they do not want to be like that person and will try to fix them, even though they know they can't. Like most of us dislike to hate Kate, and that is cause of her attitude towards her children, is what we mostly dislike or hate about her. If Kate went off on her own, I could care less if she got naked and ran up & down Wall Street for a publicity stunt. If her children were even there watching I would be all over her about being Ho, pig, bad mother etc. Granted, she would probably be called that anyway, but what I'm tryin to say, if she did her own stuff, without even a hint of kids, I could careless, I would laugh at what a fool she is, and leave it at that. But Kate always manages to drag the kids in, cause she knows that without them she is NOTHING! Fortunately, the kids are getting in the awkward phrase of life, and are slowly becoming not cute anymore. I'm not saying they are becoming ugly, just awkward and want privacy, that is probably why the 8 made the movie they did about orphans, in an orphanage, it was a message to Kate, cause someone said here that Kate was not very pleased, about their movie. The fact Kate said little about it, on tweeter. Most moms brag about their kids, things they have done, proud of them. Kate is not proud of them, and I think it's cause every time she looks at them Jon is looking back(all 8 look like Jon more than her). Kate even makes herself stand out(over bleached hair, over tanned,does not dress like a mom) as to not look like she is even their mother. If I did not know who Kate was and I saw her with any of those kids, I would think she was a sitter, not their mother.
The MOTHER told her kids about it and then showed them the site. Which was horrible. The kids would have never known if not for that. The husband did confess it was his site, in court. The damage TO the kids was done by the Mother.
_______________________
So it would have been better for the children to find out from their peers and others in the community that their father had this website? Word spreads like wildfire. Since we don't know the particulars on this, it's difficult to make a judgment. Perhaps the mother told the kids so that they didn't hear it from someone else. Just because he didn't name her on the website, the fact is that his photo was there. He was identified. Unless he's a mormon, he only had one wife. It was obvious who he was smearing, and the court recognized that.
I think that Jon is just letting her go on, knowing that she's digging her own hole. Why make a stink about it? Calling attention to it is only going to affect the kids. She'll get tired of it after awhile when she realizes that he's not firing back at her.
Am I missing something here? Do we really know for sure that Khate's in Florida grifting dresses?
It seems that all we know is that some woman on Twitter posted these tweets yesterday:

------------------------------------------------------
Okay, so WHO is this woman and WHERE did she get her info that Khate was at the store down in Florida?? And, WHERE did she get the photo??
Something just is not adding up here! I checked her Twitter and she's a nursing student in Michigan, engaged to be married next year. I see NO connection to that store in any of her tweets that I looked at.
So, HOW did she hear that Khate was at the store? Notice how she tweeted it and then tweeted US Weekly and E News, like she's pimping for Khate to get press. Then this morning, she tweeted a sort of ad for that store.
So, what's the deal? As of now, I'm not buying it at all. It just doesn't add up. We don't even know if that's a recent photo. When the tups' birthday episode was on, Khate tweeted something about the dress that she wore during the episode. I remember that some of us checked out the store back then. I don't watch the episodes, but I'm wondering if the dress that Khate is wearing in the photo is the same one she wore on that episode and this photo is an old one from back when she got the dress.
Anyway, am I the only one thinking something is up here?
Oops, in my previous post, I tried to make the link she tweeted clickable and messed it up. Here it is:

____________________________________________
Remember Magda from "There's Something About Mary? Kate, sometime in the near future
So Katie is muuuuch to busy to pop over to Hershey to meet up with a few fans, preparing the kids for school is just too time consuming. However, she is able to take a *couple days* from the drudgery of school preparation to fly to Miami for free cougar wear. She does have time for that. So I can't decide, is Kate dead quiet on twatter because she actually cares that she lied to the sheeple and didn't want to get caught, or as Admin said, she's getting attention elsewhere and doesn't need their adoration at the moment?
"Haters also know more than the fans do about the person they dislike, cause they do not want to be like that person and will try to fix them, even though they know they can't."
++++++++++++++++++++
Haters have tried to fix Kate? Who, how, and when?
"Kate even makes herself stand out(over bleached hair, over tanned,does not dress like a mom) as to not look like she is even their mother. If I did not know who Kate was and I saw her with any of those kids, I would think she was a sitter, not their mother."
+++++++++++++++++++
I don't agree with this. Kate is who she is because of the children. She wants to be identified with them. They are her meal ticket. She constantly refers to her eight, count 'em, eight kids. You even commented, "But Kate always manages to drag the kids in, cause she knows that without them she is NOTHING!"
She wants to be blond and over-tanned because she thinks that is the "look" that will land her a position in celebrity society and she thinks of herself as a perpetual 20-something in that society. It has nothing to do with the children being of Asian descent.
The clothing Kate is grifting looks like Ed Hardy wear for the Floridian Cougar. ;-)
At least Jon is no longer going through his Anti-Kate midlife crisis. Kate however is in full swing as she tries to 'get a man' - any man - as long as he's tall and looks like Steve and she doesn't have to deal with doing any actual work in finding him (not including purchased body work)
I can see it now, Kate is going to become spokeswhore for that skanky clothing company. Oh well, at least the kids won't be used, I hope.
So Katie is muuuuch to busy to pop over to Hershey to meet up with a few fans, preparing the kids for school is just too time consuming.
******************
The Hershey fan is NOT one she would want to meet up with in Hershey or anywhere else! Read some of the tweets - @bigfanofkateg
I think that the scrapbooking convention was in Kansas, or someplace in the Midwest. It is that fan who invited her to attend, but Kate replied that she's too busy with school preparations.
From Milo on Twitter:
saw Showbig 2nite on HLN & they went ovr list onebyone...Kate WAS NOT on the list! JaneVMitchell said all people...on the list had one thing in common..."all are narcissitic personalities that think only of themselves."
In what freaky upside universe is Jon the narcisist and not Kate. Goes to show you he'll never live down his Ed Hardy phase in the media no matter what else he does. Sheesh.
I'm all for Kate branching out and getting other gigs.
It seems to me this is what Kate wants as she seems quite discontented when home in PA. She itches for reasons to leave.
I saw the pic of Kate in the dress- doesn't seem too bad to me, but I wonder how she can claim a good bra has enlarged her boobs when clearly, she's not wearing one.
Those things look like floatation devices. Kate should have just owned the obvious boob job from the start. She has done nothing but lose weight, eat poorly and exercise like an orthorexic, which does anything but enlarge breasts which are primarily fat. Duh. Can't believe people believe Kate's denial.
Not how boobs work, folks.
Nobody likes: Kate looks just as old as those other women. And I would put them in the 50-60 range. Their skin looks over tan, like leather, hair over processed like straw, the clothes are something I see on older women, like around 50-70 range, not 30 something. I'm 52, and I would not be caught dead, much alive in any of those clothes, they are ugly and hideous, the material is ugly, for a scarf, curtain and possibly drapes, table cloth, ok, not a dress. LOLOLOLOL We all know Kate has no taste in clothes. Most of Florida has seniors living there, and they do dress that way. In the Midwest, I do not see that much of that kind of material. Even the young people don't wear ugly dresses like that. That is a Florida thing. Each region has it's dress code(if you like). I do not see women in LA dress that way, or NYC or Midwest. This so-call designer I have never heard of. Probably cause they only cater to the people in Florida mostly and tourist.
"This fan is really spooky to me. She seems so childlike at times. I am not sure, but Kate may have blocked her. She tweeted to Kate a few weeks back that Kate should 'dress better" and she wished she were Kate's stylist. LOLOL NOT a good thing to say to Ms. Know it all."
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
I remember that! However, she was starting a new job and only had one outfit put together!
This is another one who is really spooky. This one conducts workshops for teenage girls, lives very close to Kate, wants to meet for lunch, calls her "friend," frequents the same Starbucks, gets very personal, and appears to be trying her best to "get in with" Kate. Where do these celebrity hanger-on-ers come from all of a sudden?

Huh? You're kidding, right?
Red sky: Yes, Haters and people who dislike her, would love to fix her so she becomes a proper mom(and disappear), not a skank who uses her kids for her own fame, does crap/nothing and gets media attention.
I disagree with you on Kate's appearance, that is part of it, tryin to look Hollywood/California/20ish, but think of this, you have a black wall, are you gonna where black or white, to have a pic taken of you, which stands out? Kate knows the way she looks makes her stand out, in her family. Kate does this for attention, she is not doing this for her kids, which is why most of us originally tune in in the first place was to see how and average family with 8 cute little kids, functions. Not see a mother become a monster diva and treat her husband and kids like crap and props to make her look good. How many times she has said: I do it for my kids, they are the most important thing in my life. NOT! That was all BS. Her children are props, Jon was a prop. I don't want to get in an arguement about this, that is your opinion, and this is mine. What I would like to see is those kids get off TV. That last episode of them Movie makers, had poor ratings, so hopefully, the people who have been tuning in are getting the message, about the kids, and are tuning out. If they do a once a year up-date, that is fine with me. Like a Xmas special.
NLAN,I too wondered if Kate is really in Florida. Not that I care......but I think that outfit in the photo is exactly the outfit that she wore to one of the DWTS parties (instead of going home to the kids). White denim jacket and red printed dress. And she had extensions then and was overtanned then too.

If you check out the fabric on the designer's website, you'll see that this fabric is still being used. It looks like Waverly draperies.
I lived at the beach in Fla. for 25 yrs.until recently. Nobody dresses like that, except an occassional tourist. These type dresses are on the racks at gift shops and are mostly used as cover-ups.
The dresses remind me of Lilly Pulitzer, and to be fair that’s the style in Palm Beach. I have a few dresses from Lilly’s in KOP.
Why these ladies would want Kate to represent their clothing is beyond me. Kate show is on the brink of cancellation, she has ruined every chance she’s had to work on TV in another venue, and I doubt very much she’ll fit in with the Palm Beach social scene.
I’ve always wondered why Kate stayed in PA, especially that part. I get the impression she wants to be like cast of women on RH of (insert city). But she’s not and just makes herself look ridicules. I have family where she lives and being from Philly the culture is worlds apart. Why didn’t choose to live closer to NYC, LA, or even The Main Line when she had the chance.
Kate only has herself to blame for the way she is perceived. She is a negative, controlling, and only cares about her own interests.
Warmth Of The Sun said...So it would have been better for the children to find out from their peers and others in the community that their father had this website? "
Of course it would have not been better for the kids to find out any other way. Not sure where you got that idea from my post. No one knew this site was about them, even according to the mom. He told her about the site. My point was she could have asked the judge to get rid of it, as she did in court. WITHOUT involving the kids. Even the judge reprimanded her for involving the kids, since no one knew it was her she was talking about. He certainly was wrong with the site and the sorry things he said about her.
The damage that can happen to 8 when their parents talk badly about them in private or public can be enormous. It can be done discreetly through the courts. No need for a big stink. I would hate for these kids to hear all these snide remarks she makes or read about them if they haven't already.
I have noticed the last few times, she has not dissed Jon AS badly as she has before. She even for once admitted he pays child support. BUT I wish she wouldn't discuss this AT ALL. It is for sure no one's business whatsoever.
Moose Mania said...Oh my. Please tell me this is NOT the newest trend. That fabric is horrid to me. LOL And it does look like drapery material.

Really? I have lived in South Florida all my life, so let me set the record straight:
While we have more than our fair share of seniors, I can tell you that they do NOT dress that way as a rule. Of course there are some women who might wear these dresses, just as I'm sure there are some in your area who may as well. I take offense to your generalization that all Floridians wear "ugly and hideous" things. Shame on you.
Moose Mania said...Yes! I have seen that other tweeter. LOL Her blog is just filled with LOVE LOVE and more LOVE for Kate. She has asked a few times now to meet with Kate and or the twins to get involved in a teen workshop she has. She seems like she wants to do good things with teens, but all of sudden she IS or wants to be friends with Kate. LOL
Nobody Likes a Narcissist said..I wondered who that lady was that was tweeting about Kate being in West Palm Beach. I couldn't figure it out her connection either. She certainly is advertising for the designer. It is odd.
Nobody also I seem to remember Kate saying that if she mentions a company by name, people think she is getting freebies from them or something like that. If she mentioned the designer, she must be getting something, I would assume. Do you remember her tweeting something like that?
Laurie said..ha the 'good bra' LOL That reminds me of this clip. A friend of mine sent it to me and said "Pre good bra" at the 4:20 mark. AMAZING difference. lol The fans STILL swear she is the 'same'. This was the episode too that she talked so badly about poor little Mady's teeth. Ugh Jon looks miserable.

A bit OT - my blood test came back positive for CD - oh well, not surprised...I'm lucky in that "I" am able read a label (snark). 'Tis OK. ONE thing that at least is manageable :) Yoko didn't even do vocal warm ups.
For the GT Cupcake girls a MUCH better ending would have been for Katie to have actually tried a gluten free cupcake and remarked - wow! these really are delicious! I should learn how to make these!
I think "I" would be a better producer... ;)
My Mom lived in S. Florida the last years of her life. She wore elastic waist short/pants/skirts and cute little blouses and tops. She was always tiny. (5'2" and "ballooned" up to 105 lbs in her 80's from a steady 98 lbs all of her adult life, outside of pregnancy when I think she may have hit 110 LOL) I don't think those "designer" thingees would have EVER appealed to her. I confess I saw a few of the residents in her retirement community dressed in similar clothers though. Kate - if you really are considering, uh, modelling these - really??? Oh MY!
Kate is not trying to get a man she is trying to get a SHOW, any SHOW. A bachelorette type show seems to be what she's after now. Part of the article reads:
Mike Fleiss, creator of The Bachelorette, seems a little less enthusiastic than McPherson at the idea. ”I guess it’s kind of interesting. I haven’t really thought about it. I’ve never spoken with her, and that’s the truth,” Fleiss said ”Seriously, it would sort of have to be a special edition of The Bachelor because I don’t want to jump the shark and do something weird like that. But if she wanted to do her own sort of The Bachelorette kind of thing, that might be cool.”
Note he said he doesn't want to "jump the shark" which is the new TV jargon for this show is so over.
Just curious said...
What an asinine story, Kate sending her friend around the country to collect men she can date. Would that be like a 52-state blitz of interviewing single men at the local Ramada Inns?
====
lol. What's worse is she repeated that stupid story twice in the (thankfully) short interview. Her lame excuse for not having a man is that she's "known" and has eight kids and a crazy career? The real problem is her lousy rotten personality. If you send your best friend out on a cross country trek to find a man for you and she comes back empty-handed that's gotta tell you something.

Sort of off topic; I love watching the 'Golden Girls' reruns and I think their wardrobe from that time period was so classy (well, except for those gargantuan shoulder pads, lol). Those women always looked fantastic.
Of course there are some women who might wear these dresses, just as I'm sure there are some in your area who may as well. I take offense to your generalization that all Floridians wear "ugly and hideous" things. Shame on you.
=========================
I don't take offense so much about the generalization that all Floridians wear ugly things, but rather with the assertion that most of Florida has seniors living there! LOL!
My grandparents were of the generation that spent its days on the green benches on Central Ave in St. Pete, but that was many moons ago. Times have changed. All of Florida most definitely is not the last stop on a senior's ride through life! And I've not seen many seniors swaddled in material that was used as curtains in The Golden Girls!

What's really funny is that in her "workshops" she promotes courage, individuality, and self-awareness among girls (ages 7 to 18). At the same time she's buddy-buddy with Kate. She fawns over her and supports her in her exploitation of the kids, never giving them any decision in whether to film, with no thought to the individuality of the eight children.
That tweeter is a strange one indeed.
I'll bet 50 bucks that Kate is cackling with glee over Jon being on that list.

If you check out the fabric on the designer's website, you'll see that this fabric is still being used. It looks like Waverly draperies.

Yikes! Now, that pattern is really hideous! Plus, the one shoulder look is doing her no favors.

Moose Mania said...Yes! I have seen that other tweeter. LOL Her blog is just filled with LOVE LOVE and more LOVE for Kate. She has asked a few times now to meet with Kate and or the twins to get involved in a teen workshop she has. She seems like she wants to do good things with teens, but all of sudden she IS or wants to be friends with Kate. LOL
------------------------------------
I've checked this one out too, and she does look like another delusional sheeple. I see on her blog that her love for Khate goes back far. Yet, she is only new to tweeting Khate. I did see on her blog that she's writing a book, so I have a feeling that she's just tweeting Khate to try to get some more exposure for her blog and her book.
I find it a bit alarming that she supposedly counsels teen girls, especially if she considers Khate an inspiration and role model!

I think it's at 4:28, sideways in the gray vest. Gosh almighty. She looks like a young boy. Pancake flat.

Who the f@#k cares about what the clothes look like or if they're old lady clothes. Who cares about the fabric or what ever else we think of her "modeling" this womans apparel. The fact is, she is still getting paid and getting hired to promote products. When is her gravy train coming to an end. Who would buy any thing she endorses? Does this designer think her sales will sky rocket because Kate is wearing something of hers. Doesn't she know that Kates one of the most hated people in America. This is getting laughable at this point.
oh my.. I watched the dentist video, and No Regrets, wow you nailed it...she def got a "good bra" and I agree with your interpretation of Kate speak! Not even those strapless glue under the boobie things can give her that much lift! plus they don't create size, and we have all seen the bra-less pictures...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6eP807mP8o&feature=related
Check Kate out at the 5:04 mark -- obviously, she had not found the "good bra" at that point, either!
No Regrets said...
Nobody Likes a Narcissist said..I wondered who that lady was that was tweeting about Kate being in West Palm Beach. I couldn't figure it out her connection either. She certainly is advertising for the designer. It is odd.
Nobody also I seem to remember Kate saying that if she mentions a company by name, people think she is getting freebies from them or something like that. If she mentioned the designer, she must be getting something, I would assume. Do you remember her tweeting something like that?
------------------------------------
I'm not sure. I remember Khate tweeting something about just because she mentions a name (like Fig Newmans) doesn't mean she's getting paid, she just likes them. I've seen her mention what she was wearing a couple of times, but I think it was in response to sheeple questions about it.
From what I have seen, Khate gets lots of freebies and does a TERRIBLE job of paying the designers or stores back. I even saw her tweet a designer name or company once, but she had their Twitter name wrong, so it didn't even link to the right person. Of course, lazy Khate didn't bother to check it first or be more careful in what she was doing. I've seen celebrities mention and thank designers and stores with tweets. Khate just doesn't do it or she gets it wrong. She's not even good at grifting, lol.
No Regrets said...
Laurie said..ha the 'good bra' LOL That reminds me of this clip. A friend of mine sent it to me and said "Pre good bra" at the 4:20 mark. AMAZING difference. lol The fans STILL swear she is the 'same'. This was the episode too that she talked so badly about poor little Mady's teeth. Ugh Jon looks miserable.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xfzvr4kU-lk&feature=related
------------------------------------
I never watched the show, so I took a quick look at that clip and the next few parts of that episode. Not only was the "good bra" missing, but leave it to Khate to be CHOMPING ON HER GUM as she's talking to the orthodontist! My cousin is an orthodontist and he would find that shocking!
Also, since this is the first time that I've seen these clips, I am really appalled at how she's making fun of Mady's teeth! First of all, my kids would never want cameras to come with them to the dentist. By that age, I'm sure Mady and Cara knew that all their friends would be seeing their orthodontic consultation on tv. I can't imagine any kid being okay with that! Then, add to that having your mother fake fun of the problems with your teeth on national tv! OMG, I really despise this witch! Not an ounce of motherly love, compassion, or instinct in her!
Nobody, the article about the Bachelorette was from June 2010. I've noticed a lot of Gosselin "news" gets recycled. Sometimes it's an article that came out a year ago but gets passed off with a current date.
It's just more evidence of how un-newsworthy she really is.

Same dress designer and same shoes as the current picture - but 1 year ago.
And as for her 'bolt ons'. How can anyone in their right mind not realize she bought her boobs. They are hers (she bought them) and they are real (we see them) but that's where her truth stops and the lies began. She had them surgically implanted. Why can't she just admit it? She can't be embarrassed about it, she flaunts them any time she gets. What a horrible example she is for her kids. She lies, can't ever tell the truth.
She could admit she wasn't happy with the size, and wanted to feel more confident about her looks. That would have garnered much more sympathy than the pack of lies she spills out daily.
I have a friend that was an 'A' cup all through motherhood and finally when done having kids she had them made to a 'C' cup. No embarrassment. We happy for her.
But to LIE about it just reeks.
And speaking of twitter. Her M/O is she tweets when she's home and bored and ignores her sheeple when she's out being fawned all over by real people. She's so freakin' predictable.
Thankyou: No Lovein Philly. I have been to Florida at least a dozen times over the last 10 years, and that is what I saw in south Florida, mostly in the Palm beach area. And I did not say all, I said most seniors, most seniors are not everybody and I said region, which could be community, you live in. IN my community/region, they don't dress that way, I could go north, to wear the rich yuppies live and they dress way different then where I live and that might only be 20 miles away. You know I'm beginning to think that some of these nit-pickers, who probably only come here once in a while(cause your name has never been seen before) or are sheeple in disguise to start trouble or an arguement. Then go back to your sheeples and have a laugh or 2. This is my opinion on what I have seen in Florida, since I've have not seen any clothes like that here. If there is clothes like that here it is usually ends up at rumage sales or end of season sales, cause nobody would buy it. What might be popular in part of the country does not work in other parts. And if those clothes are used as cover-ups, then that is probably what I saw, when I was down there, cause they sure wear them everywhere.
wayward said...Remember Magda from "There's Something About Mary? Kate, sometime in the near future
Thanks for the laughs! Kate in the very near future if she keeps up her tan-obsessed habit. I could imagine her doing just that, as she sits by her pool.
Kate's face/skin has aged quite rapidly in the two years we've seen of her at the tanning salon or the beach.
Kokomo, Cocktails, and Dreams said...They look like 50-year-old nouveau riche, plastic, fake-baked and over-processed Malibu-Barbie women who are desperately either trying to land a man, or hang on to the one they have. Pathetic.
So true! Kate and those women are a perfect match. That's Kate in a few years!
And I did not say all, I said most seniors, most seniors are not everybody and I said region, which could be community, you live in.

So sick...most seniors in Florida do NOT wear dresses/styles like that. Some might, but MOST implies the majority, and one will not find the majority of seniors dressed as ElysaSuzanne look-alikes.

You are correct, but Kate Gosselin knows NOTHING about either spelling or grammar despite her protestations and would have no idea whatsoever regarding subject/verb agreement.
Thanks for the link Sienna. I hadn't seen that picture. Yup, she's going Jersey. BTW, I was born and raised "down the shore" but my tan was from the beach and was not orange. I lived there until I married a military man. I watch Jerseylicious religiously every Sunday (it's my guilty pleasure).
I have to weigh in on this "most" seniors in FL issue....my mom and dad retired there and my mom NEVER dressd in those types of outfits nor did any of her friends. My MIL is from the Jacksonville area and none of her family dress like that either. I wouldn't classify the ones I've seen dressed like that as seniors as I said in an earlier post the ones who dress like that are "wannabes".
As I mentioned in my post earlier today, something is up with this woman (sheeple) who posted about the Khate photo in Florida. I'm just NOT buying it at all. I don't know where she got the photo, but I do NOT think it's recent and I think she's playing games with the "Kate haters":

-----------------
Have to agree, Laurie. My MIL lives in Del Ray Beach (next to West Palm) and would never wear those dresses. Never! Nor do her friends. I was down there about a month ago and I don't remember seeing anyone wearing cheap, Ed Hardy-like dresses - they really are terrible. Most of the women wear nice shorts, golf or tennis outfits. My MIL is in her early 80's and her crowd is anywhere from 70 and up. I don't know who's buying these dresses but I don't think it's the locals!

Not necessarily. I think that when one makes generalizations and state opinions as facts, some toes are going to get tread on, which is what happened here. It may bring about some comments from lurkers who seldom post here, and these may or may not be sheeple. I don't think that they are.

There's a link on this person's Twitter page to a real crime story about a pedophile, who was a family member. Is she the victim? I've noticed that so many of this person's tweets call out others (with no proof) as being pedophiles. The tweets are among the nastiest and most accusatory that I've ever read from a "hater." Does anyone know the "story" here?
So -- is Kate or is Kate not living it up with over-tanned, over-bleached, and over-dressed faux celebrities in South Florida? Has it been confirmed, or is it just another one of those "insider" stories going around, kind of like the one who saw Kate on a plane with the twins when she was somewhere entirely different.
Thank you, E-town. I am in no way a sheeple; I read this board every day in the hopes that this farce called Kate plus 8 has come to an end. I rarely feel the need to post, as most of the regular contributers are for the most part articulate and fair in their views. I'm sure you would have felt compelled to respond had "Florida" been replaced with "E-town".
Here's a photo from April 2010 where Khate is wearing a very similar dress and the same white denim jacket. I looked closely at both dresses and although I think it's the same designer, it's a slightly different fabric:
http://www.realitytea.com/tag/kate-gosselin-moving-to-la/
Oh, sorry. I just realized that the last link I posted had a photo of Khate in the same dress and white denim jacket that was in the photo from the link that Sienna posted earlier today (the "jersified" link). Either way, Khate was sporting a similar look over a year ago. I still don't think yesterday's mysterious tweeted photo is a new photo.
Rarely do I click on links about pictures of Kate because when I look at said pictures of Kate, especially after eating dinner, I want to throw up, but I was curious about what you were all talking about. Um, Kate needs an oil blotter & fast. She could also use a leave in conditioner. Just making an observation. Yeah. And the tanning thing? She has officially gone WAY too far. Orange is not the NOT the new 'natural'. What in bloody hell happened to her? I haven't seen her in a long time, since the Kentucky Derby pics I guess, & stress, anger, constant UV rays, not removing makeup, heavy makeup, LACK of sunlight, vitamin deficiency, alcohol consumption, SO many factors can age someone.
Is it just me, or has Kate aged significantly? In a short amount of time?
~Hippie Chick~
I want all of you to know that the haters and sheeple just did exactly what they set out to do. They take peoples words and take it out of context and then get all of us arguing about it. Well, good, cause it just gave me the excuse to get away from here and all Kate Gosselin. I will not be coming back here anymore, cause of NIT-PICKERS on this site. This is my last message, and I could careless what any of you think, opinion is an opinion not fact. Just as some of you say things and claim it's fact, and that's ok, well you can have each other, count me out. Admin, you can bar me if you like, it's fine with me. I had enough. I found something more interesting to do. If K8 stays or goes, I don't care! Good bye!
My mother owns a home in a gated country club community in FL, where she lives during the winter months. There are multi-millionaires who live there, all very nice, classy folks. None of my mother's friends wear clothes that are like ElysaSuzanne's.
IMO Kate dresses like she is on the prowl 24/7. I still can't get over that get-up she had on in the pic when she was pumping gas...you remember the one...white low-cut top, Daisy Dukes and 4-inch peep toe heels. That outfit screamed "prostitute". She looked like a whore on the Las Vegas strip, and she should be ashamed of herself for wearing something like that. I wonder if she will let the twins leave the house wearing something like that when they are teenagers? I'm sure Jon won't.
There's something that I've wondered about.
What has caused the change in wardrobe since she and Jon divorced? She used to dress very conservatively in dark, muted colors. She claimed that she did not like to shop for clothes, even to the point that Jon picked out her clothes when they went shopping in one episode. Somebody please tell me, what has caused this drastic change? Any opinions or insights? IMO this change sends up red flags indicating a mental health issue.
Nope, Hippie, it's definitely not just you. Kate looks much older than my fresh-faced sister, who is 45! She's only a year older than me, and, not to toot my own horn or anything -- but she could pass for my mother. The factors you mentioned can age a person so very much. I personally think stress, combined with too much tanning, drinking and smoking (again, only my opinion) are what ruined Kate's looks. Despite her nasty personality, I used to think she was outwardly quite pretty.
From mom2two's post of hollybaby article:
But still, Maci knows that her $60,000 a season paycheck isn’t worth the risk of ruining her son’s childhood, especially when he is old enough to notice that his mommy and daddy, Ryan Edwards, are constantly fighting.
Are these Teen Moms really getting that much for a reality tv show?! I think it's wrong for a tv network to reward these young moms for getting pregnant at a young age.
I could see how some teens watching this show (and reading that article) could think this is their meal ticket to get rich and famous too, without having to do much except have a baby. They won't think about the long-term consequences of having a baby. It's not a guarantee that they'll make the cast for the show.
It seems these days that many of our younger generation is consumed with getting rich and famous, the quick and easy way, without having to do any real work or show any real talent. This is how reality tv has poorly influenced our teens.
Are these reality moms saving part of their earnings from the show for their child's future? Or, are they spending every nickel and dime to live the celebrity lifestyle they always wanted - plastic surgery, bigger house, better car, etc? I doubt it's the former.
Doesn't this sound familiar:
“Without the show, I would have had to have a full-time job and be in school full-time, and I’d rarely get to spend time with Bentley,” Maci says. “It’s been difficult, but it’s also been a big blessing.”

I've been a reader of this blog for quite some time, and I'd like to point out that wide brush you're using to paint us with. I read this blog just about every day but only post occasionally.I'm certainly not a sheeple and, in fact, have never watched the show, ever. I have seen various clips on YouTube and that was enough for me to realize that the Gosselin kids were, and are, being exploited. I don't feel the need to post to this blog regarding how perfect my mothering and family are but those posts are, for the most part, interesting to me. I've sort of rambled on here but my point is that I'm pretty certain that this blog, like many others, has a readership that feels no need to post or that will only post infrequenly, if at all. /end rant

My guess is that there are many of us who read this blog regularly, even daily, even several times a day (!) and appreciate the intelligence of the majority of those who chose to post. Don't assume that those who post rarely are sheeple. I've followed this sad saga from the early days and left sheepledom a very long time ago, years and years. Blogs on this topic come and go - most of those created in the early days - both pro and anti the show - have long gone and it's because of Admin's wise handling of comments that this one draws a more intelligent crowd. And I personally like her snarkiness, too LOL!!

So sick of her said..."I want all of you to know that the haters and sheeple just did exactly what they set out to do. They take peoples words and take it out of context and then get all of us arguing about it."
++++++++++++++++++++++
Nobody took anything out of context. Her statement, "We all know Kate has no taste in clothes. Most of Florida has seniors living there, and they do dress that way" wasn't an opinion and didn't require interpretation or or an analysis. It was black and white. Nobody was nit-picking or looking for an argument, simply pointing out that this really isn't the case for most seniors in Florida.
I think that the problem was that many of this person's postings are not written as concisely as they could be. That's okay, but when you're trying to make a point, sentences cannot be so convoluted that it's difficult trying to figure out what is being said.
FL said, "I rarely feel the need to post, as most of the regular contributers are for the most part articulate and fair in their views. I'm sure you would have felt compelled to respond had "Florida" been replaced with "E-town"."

I'm not so sure what I have been accused of saying, but I didn't complain about nit-picking sheeple and I didn't call anyone a sheeple.
Generalizations are sometimes funny. There are many who think that most people in Lancaster County are Mennonites or Amish and we all wear either soup strainers (prayer caps), bonnets, or bright blue or purple ankle-length dresses with aprons, and those gosh-awful black lace-up school marm shoes (which are actually more attractive than hooker heels!).
I need a drink...
Re: Kate "could use an oil blotter" on her forehead. I recall reading that Botox causes this shiny forehead syndrome - was specifically in reference to Nicole Kidman. It does seem that whenever Nicole comes out with a new, stiff, face - she also has a mirror-like shine on her forehead. Have noticed this on Kate many times since she began to mess with her face...
Just one more word about Florida. It depends on what part of Florida as to the way people dress. The people in South Beach for instance would dress differently than say someone from West Palm. The people in Daytona Beach would dress differently from either those. Orlando -- on and on. Or that would be my thought. But yes Kate has several of those dresses. If I am not mistaken she wore one on the last episode that I watched which was school breakfast when she asked the children how they were to eat their lunch and when they responded she thundered "quiet," then go ahead and say it altogether, which they did in perfect unison. The children were trying valiantly to please. Bizarre - last time for me.
Gosselin Gossip Said....
Would you let us know if Kate Gosselin made the list? If so, what her salary is listed as? Thanks.
************************************
There was a reality tv section for biggest salaries but Kate was not listed this year.
"Kate's face/skin has aged quite rapidly in the two years we've seen of her at the tanning salon or the beach."
__________________________
Kate has certainly aged at least 15 years in the last three or four. I'm not so sure that tanning, hair-bleaching and stress does this so rapidly, does it? If not, then what is causing it? I've never seen anyone age like this. Take a look at the photo of her on the right side (fork photo) and compare it to recent ones. Something is very wrong.
I don't know if my post went thru or not- it just disappeared!Sorry, if this posts twice.
Look at the 3 women in those skanky-wear dresses.Kate is in the middle and has no arms! There is a piece of blue material from the lady on the right's dress on the left side ,below waist of the woman to Kate's left. It looks like Kate was just popped in there to me!
I know nothing about photo-shop, so I am most likely wrong...
This is another one who is really spooky. This one conducts workshops for teenage girls, lives very close to Kate, wants to meet for lunch, calls her "friend," frequents the same Starbucks, gets very personal, and appears to be trying her best to "get in with" Kate. Where do these celebrity hanger-on-ers come from all of a sudden?

@Kateplusmy8 my daughter is 7, & is your family's BIGGEST fan! She calls your show "the kids" and we've NEVER missed an episode!
====
How do you explain to a seven-year-old that a 36-year-old mom of eight goes off to the big city, lets a stranger lick her foot and ends up drunk as a skunk with another woman?
How do you explain to a seven-year-old that a mom films her kids sitting on potties, puts them on the laundry room floor when they are sick, or makes them lie in their own vomit on a fishing boat?
Or maybe you don't explain it, and you just say, "See what a wonderful mom Kate Gosselin is because she is a single mom taking care of eight kids by herself!"
I just couldn't verify the Kate in Florida story to my satisfaction enough to do a post, and then the person who twittered this started calling someone who asked a reasonable question a hater?
When a random person posts a Kate sighting, usually they don't have a clue there is such a large group of people following the Gosselins on the internet. You can sort of tell when it's a random person not invested in any of it. It's rather odd for just a random person to refer to people as haters. I realize that is a term commonly used in many situations, but it just struck me as odd. And suspicious.
Maybe she was there, and I'm sure we'll get confirmation of it eventually if she was. She is indeed quiet on twitter, which suggests she is not home, and thus, getting attention.
I find it so pathetic that the times when Kate twitters the most is when her kids are with her. Her kids do not fill her up. She always needs to use twitter as a crutch when she is with her kids, to fill the void. Being a celeb and out on the road doing celeb things, not to mention all the filming, fills her up so much she abandons twitter. Sad. Similar to a person who gets off on stealing things, instead of donating things. The kinds of things that seem to fulfill Kate are rather dysfunctional.
I see there is a little bit of a spat today.....hopefully we can just bring it back to a friendly place. I understand these things come and go sometimes and it always works itself out here.
I also find people here to be so intelligent, and interesting as well. It cannot be said enough that the posters here make this blog. Kate and the kids may be the reason we gather, but there's been so much more that has come out of discussions that has really been the driving force of the blog.
I am very proud that this blog has managed to attract and maintain this kind of sophisticated audience. I really don't have to delete very many comments so I don't think it's attributed so much to the moderation.
Speaking about generalizations made me smile. When I've been to Europe people always seem to think Americans wear cowboy hats and boots. I had an awful time explaining to some German friends I met that no that's not what people wear where I live. It was funny, and cute.
Then when I saw a pic of William and Kate in Canada wearing cowboy boots and hats there were all these funny comments about how of course the Europeans think that's what we all wear here!
Hats off to you, Admin, for making this place have a general respectful mood.
I get the feeling that the poster who got upset MAY be hard of hearing. I have a cousin who is deaf and 'types' in a manner that he's just following his thoughts. He's extremely intelligent but you wouldn't know it from his writings.
Maybe we shouldn't be so judgemental with regards to spelling and punctuation. Just a thought. Carry on.
*double post* Sorry.
And people in Europe think us Canadians live in igloos! With this heat, I wish.

In fairness, a lot of tweeple actually admitted on twitter both before and after that episode they were disappointed in Kate and leaving the flock.
Although the past year has been another frustrating one in the saga of a narcissist who just will not go away, there have been two major episodes in which Kate herself caused a bunch of sheeple to go jump off the cliff.
The foot licking, and the Sarah Palin camping trip.
By the way after the camping trip episode, I started to realize that the only person who will turn the fans off from Kate at this point will be Kate herself.
By the way I've always believed that boards can pretty much self-moderate if you play your cards right. I was on a very active board on TWOP awhile back that hardly ever had any problems with mods. It was proof that a big group of people can keep themselves in check if they want to. Aside from a few trolls, which I don't think really counts, you all take care of yourselves for the most part.
I'd been thinking that there was somethng weird about that Florida photo.
If you look at it closer, the bottom part of the dress isn't hanging correctly with how the top part is.
And look at her legs...there's something weird there. Like they photo shopped in two left legs, and put a right foot on one of them.
On the other hand, the shadows behind the 3 heads seem to synch up.
It's from below the boobs down that doesn't look right.
Try scanning from the bottom of the photo up. The other ladies seem fine...but Kate's you feel like something's off, but you can't tell what.
I think it's something with the legs.
Just a brief follow-up about the discussion earlier about the father with a blog ripping on the mother.
You know in family law court it really is the luck of the draw. You get get a traditional judge who favors mothers and requires you to be an axe murderer before they ever take custody from you. Or you can get a judge like this one, who realizes that a blog like this is DETRIMENTAL to the kids. She called it "child abuse." Amen.
What Kate is doing is exactly the same as that father. He chose to publicly express his anger toward the mother on a public forum called a blog, Kate chose to publicly express her anger toward Jon on a public forum called talk shows and magazines.
It is the same....darn....thing. Had the luck of the draw brought up another judge, Kate could just as easily have lost custody by now.
She is so arrogant about the way custody turned out. She doesn't realize she just GOT LUCKY. She got the right judge who doesn't think that parental alienation is happening here. Heck their judge might not even believe in the concept, it's not an old one.
My apologies, E-Town.
++++++++++++++++++++
Thanks, but no need to apologize. It wasn't your fault. I can easily see how, from the way the post was quoted and written, that you would think that I wrote it.

Admin, there shouldn't have been a spat today. Someone made a generalized statement and others corrected the misconception, posting what they knew to be true from their own experiences. The original poster left in a huff. It happens. I blame it on the heat. Of course, I blame everything on the heat and these darn long, heavy cotton Amish dresses and wool socks!
That's ok I blame everything on cowboy boots and hats.
I'm cracking up. Look at that photo more closely.
The left leg has been photo shopped too far forward, and angled incorrectly. I think she had that leg turned more towards the camera, nd now it's turned more towards the other lady.
The left leg knee and foot aren't angled correctly with each other, nor with the other leg/foot.
Admin said..."but there's been so much more that has come out of discussions that has really been the driving force of the blog."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have been coming here about 3 months. Commenting, and reading what you all say. I can honestly and sincerely say l have learned a lot about myself during these few months. People sharing their stories about lives and childhoods.
Reading all this has taught me many things, one of the most important is, l am OK! lol Just because l was often told l was shit, everything l say is shit....is NOT true! I am as normal as anyone here ('cept for the odd shit disturber and sheeple) You have all taught me l am part of this world, and l deserve to be in it. Just like everyone else. You wonderful people have done more for my pschological well being than any therapist l have seen. Thank YOU! for your stories and thanks for the laughs. I really, really like you all very much. Cheers!xo
Eh I don't think it's photoshopped. There is a shadow from Kate's head on the white curtain behind her. You'd have to be awfully darn good at photoshop to do that.
Her hair looks like it does now, actually this might be the real deal. Especially since Kate is so quiet on Twitter. She's up to SOMETHING or other.
It's just odd there's not that much info out there about this other than this.
Now I'm obsessed!
Look at the left leg...the coloring on it is different than the other lady's legs, and different than Kate's right leg. It appears to be more shiny, and have a flatter color profile, like someone colored it in.
Look how smooth it looks compared to the other legs in the photo.
And the shadowing behind it isn't the same as the shadowing on the lady with the same leg position.
Teresa I'm glad it's been helpful although I do think therapy can be helpful too!
I think when you're observing something that you know in your heart is wrong, to have a bunch of other people say this is wrong to me too, is very reassuring and does indeed make you feel "normal." Also, I think since so many of us have similar experiences with people like Kate, there is a common bond. It helps people to know our "Kates" were the problem, not us.
I have watched this show since the specials and I remember thinking very shortly after that, gosh I don't think this is all that good for the kids but who knows....a short time afterward, I realized I certainly was not alone, and in fact, the numbers have only grown.
It sort of went from a small group of folks saying this kind of looks like this is bad for the kids we're going to keep our eye on it, to the vast majority of people saying this is outrageous child exploitation. It's been very cool to watch.
Mel there are shadows all over the place, it would have to be a REALLY GOOD PHOTOSHOP.
I don't see it, sorry I have to disagree.
Who really cares, if she was there we'll find out eventually.
Kate's tweeting that she's back from yet another trip and was 'working' and only saw the beach from the air. So there you go. I don't know who would spend upwards of $300 on a dress like that because of Kate, but oh well. She's so predictable - she puts out just enough info to get whip her tweeple into a frenzy and then sits back and waits for the adulation. And it never fails. Never do one of them question who was taking care of her children.
As for the spat thing, I watched it play out through the day and I think it was just a simple case of misread words. The original post said (I think) that 'most of Florida has seniors' but it somehow got confused to read 'most of Florida is seniors.' I hope so sick of her cools down and comes back. I really enjoy her posts and I know most everyone else does too!
Also, did you notice that Kate said she'll miss George Lopez's late nite laughs? I thought she put the kids to bed at 7 and was asleep 5 minutes after that. Isn't that what she said on one of her rounds of talk shows?
There is a piece of blue material from the lady on the right's dress on the left side ,below waist of the woman to Kate's left. It looks like Kate was just popped in there to me!
#########
I think what you are seeing there is the fabric on the mannequin behind Kate (between the woman in the gold glitzy dress and Kate).
I just took another look at that photo. I don't think it's photoshopped either. Kate's balled up fist is behind the shoulder of the woman on the right (most people would have their palm against someone they were hugging). She has confirmed she was somewhere there's a beach. The picture made me laugh. Her boobs look so funny! I figured it out - they look like my travel neck pillow. It has a little snap so you can hang it on your carry on and her boobs look like my pillow when it's snapped together! Haha!
PS: I miss Kelly too.....
Sorry all, I should really say everything I want all at once. Perils of middle age. I watched an episode of Say Yes to the Dress tonight and they were promoting K+8 heavily. They showed a lot of the dramatic flare up and then one commercial (apparently airing Monday) about her tweet fest. And she looked AWFUL. Hi-def is not kind to anyone, but her cheeks looked rough and hollow. The makeup made it worse. That hair really drags her features down too. She is quite cute with short hair and not everyone can claim that. And she was stuffed into some satin pink tank top. She looks bad.
That's ok I blame everything on cowboy boots and hats.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
LOL, admin. Tell you what. I'll trade you. I'll take the cowboy boots and hat, and you may have my heavy, long starched Amish dress. Have fun in the outhouse, hoisting up the slip, dress and apron while swatting at more flies than there are bees around a honeypot!
My husband, with whom I do not share my presence here, was just upstairs exercising, and watching tv, which meant some channel surfing. i walked through and I guess he had caught some TLC because he told me that K8 Gosslin was coming back for another season, he sounded so surprised. I said nothing and he added he had caught a promo clip, wanted to know why she looked so horrible. he said she looked like she was heavier and her face, what has she done to her face? From someone who has seen or heard nothing about her in over 2 years.
So the witch flew her broom to Florida to what, discuss promoting a line of ugly cougar clothes? And couldn't figure out a way (read spend her own money) to make a long vacation weekend out of this? Home to a child-free tweeting weekend? Bettting Steve was not protecting her in Florida either. Circling the drain.
An entire trip to Florida and she couldn't tweet SOMETHING interesting about it while she was there? "Saw a dolphin" or SOMETHING??? Does she just not get twitter whatsoever?
I mean a trip is the perfect opportunity to throw your fans a few interesting tweets. Didn't she at least have a few spare moments in the airport?
Now here she is back in her own bed twatting up a storm about absolutely nothing.
Admin. I must say, you do a good job moderating this blog. Some people take things wrong when it's written down, no matter how much you try to explain something on paper. It's just not the same as a conversation.
I have to sit on my hands sometimes to stop myself from responding to some of it! It appears that the regular posters are adult and intelligent enough to accept it for what it is, and move on.
It is hard somedays though to think you can say whatever comes into your head, because a blog is really just a mix of anonymous people, hidden from view behind a computer.
My mother told me to never write anything down that you wouldn't say to someone's face!Works for me..
By the way, I made another mistake on my post about the 3 women in those waverly type dresses in Florida. I meant to say the blue material is on the lady's dress to the right of Kate, not left!Sorry,it's been that kind of day!!!
I thought it was interesting she tweeted that she's reusing backpacks for school. Some nonfan tweeted that it's probably because TLC won't have a back to school episode that will pay for school supplies. We can only hope.
Warm of the sun said: (I think you're responding to me,it's confusing!) I looked at the dress material behind that women, but I thought it didn't look like the exact same material, it probably is though. I didn't see her balled up fist behind that woman and thought she had no arms!
Her legs do look a little wierd, though, I agree with Mel.But, what do I know about photo-shop- nada..
E-town neighbor- you made me LOL!You must be one of the 'more evolved' Amish order who can use electricity!I remember those old out-houses when I was a kid, maybe 5 or 6.My grand-pa had a 3-seater and kept his 'girlie' magazine on a string hanging from the door. I brought it into the house and asked grand-ma what it was!!!!
Have to go and get some more ice for the igloo, damn heat flooded my basement.....
Hi, Theresa. You made me cry when I read your post. I'm so sorry that someone was so unkind to you and made you feel you are not deserving or normal. You deserve to be treated with love and respect like everyone else, and I think you are just fine.
I am happy you found this blog, too. There are a lot of smart, kind and funny people here and I was also happy to find it. I'm not technically 'normal', but there is nothing wrong with therapy; it is very helpful,also!
I am glad to see you here- welcome!
Hippie chick- yo're right ,Kate has aged a lot in a short time. That hi-def make-up looks horrible in photos sometimes! Kate has bragged about not wearing sun-screen,she has been eating salad-poor diet is very bad for you.
She maybe?smokes, ? drinks, poor sleep patterns, over- exercizing, stress, anxiety,tanning, disease/overall poor health, botox, plastic surgery,mood..Oh,Kate there are so many questions about you!
Happiness does reflect in your face,too.She has her head so far up all these celebs asses, that she has a shitty out-look on life!She has so many things to be happy about and thank-ful for, but she's not.
She may have thought the divorce was a good idea,but it has aged and sressed her a lot,especially if the show ends soon....You just cannot keep abusing your body,your body is still 36 and soon to be forty- things just change!
She has enough to live on if she down-sizes and stops trying to be a star. Her dream isn't at home with those kids, but Hollywood, which is really very sad, for her family.
So sick of her...
I find it odd that the people who cant stand her are the ones looking at and posting about her twitter thing.Sorry...I'm not in twitter I really dont know the 1st thing about it.I wont make an account just to mess with her OR to see what she has to say. Again...I could care less.I just dont get why people who claim to "hate" her make accounts to do just that.
I dont surf the web looking for anything to do with kate...I really cant stand the child abuser,so I give her NO attention.
People go to the fan sites? WHY? Why track this woman down when you cant stomach her?Why talk about her hair or clothes? She is nothing more than a baby making machine.She got what she was after...
I really believe Octo mom loves her kids and can give them SO much more than kate will ever offer the kids.
Kate will stay on the air as long as YOU watch and comment.The divorce was what? Almost 2 years ago? I still havent watched a show or seen a CLIP...Not on youtube...or reruns....not even here...I will never give this woman any attention....She is NOT worthy!!!Stop giving her attention and she WILL go away.
I cant comment on a show cause I havent watched any in SOOO long.I cant stand to hear her voice,let alone watch how she treats the kids.I cant and WONT watch a 20 second clip...I wont look at her twitter..if more did this ...she would be cancled.
Wise up people and STOP wasting your time on her.!!
Regarding the photoshopping, as a rule specific body parts, arms, legs, are not individually added. We've all seen pictures of a head added to a different body, but to go to the trouble of finding two different legs and then adding them and getting the correct shadowing etc. just doesn't make sense especially for what looks more like a snapshot taken by a friend, not a professional photo. If that's not Kate and someone added her head to someone elses body, why would they mess with adding different legs?
If you stare at her legs long enough it almost becomes an optical illusion. Her right leg is straight and her left leg is bent at the knee with her foot turned a bit to the left.
"Moose Mania said...No regrets - you're posting that xxxx said... followed by your own comments without typing what the person said. I read your response to my posts and thought...wait a minute! I didn't say that! :)"
TO Moose Etown and anyone else. I apologize. You are so right. I was in a hurry and didn't post the entire convo. I WILL correct it in the future. SORRY LOL
Regarding the TV guide article for the highest paid they also note: "For the complete list of TV's biggest salaries ranging from drama, comedy, late night and reality, pick up this week's issue of TV Guide Magazine, on newsstands Thursday, August 11!"
I would bet she is probably on the complete list. I don't get the TV guide, I would be interested in knowing if she is on it. She lies so much, of course she denied making 250K. I bet it is that much and more with all the freebies.
Kate will stay on the air as long as YOU watch and comment.The divorce was what? Almost 2 years ago? I still havent watched a show or seen a CLIP...Not on youtube...or reruns....not even here...I will never give this woman any attention....She is NOT worthy!!!Stop giving her attention and she WILL go away
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
But you're reading here and posting here, and therefore giving her attention.
Khate popped back on Twitter a little before 11 pm last night and said she had to put away groceries. Then, she came back a half hour later, around 11:35 and did over 60 tweets over the next hour.
She's back on Twitter now, already up to around 30 tweets. Of course, that's after she complained about having so much to do. I saw this coming, I predict she will be tweeting like crazy all weekend since she's home alone and she has to get them excited for Monday's show.
I don't think that dress pic is photoshopped, but I do think something isn't adding up as far as the woman in Michigan who posted it. When Kate came on Twitter last night, she tweeted it again:
ashn02 Ashley Smith
@Kateplusmy8 love this pic of you and #ElysaSuzanne! Gorgeous girls! yfrog.com/kf3x2kbj
-------------
I see no connection between her and the store, or the store owners. I just am wondering where she got that photo and how recent or old it is. Something still is not adding up.
Btw, she follows Khate, although I hadn't seen her tweeting Khate until she had that photo to tweet. In checking her Twitter out, I see she's a nursing student, getting married next year, claims to be into exercise and nutrition, tweets about her workouts at the gym a lot, called herself "fat" and is dieting for the wedding, but recently answered someone's tweet by saying she got down to a size 1/2 during marathon training, and is now a size 4 but she wants to be a size 2 for the wedding. (Oh, and she's tweeted photos of her dinner - a salad!)
Well, duh, I am just now realizing that there's a new post!
"I find it odd that the people who cant stand her are the ones looking at and posting about her twitter thing.Sorry...I'm not in twitter I really dont know the 1st thing about it."
______
Similarly, I find it odd that people who can't stand her take the time to post on blogs telling others that THEY find it odd that people post on blogs and should WISE UP and not waste time on her!!
Red sky and Oddities...
I do post here b/c I enjoy this blog.I find the people here smart and entertaining.I just didnt run into kate a year ago.I have watched from the 1st special...then the next then to the series.
AND yes I find it odd that people who dont like her comment on everyting she does or wears.Again...like I said...If my words sting thats YOUR problem.Its your guilt that keeps you watching...I dont watch and I want the kids to have privacy.I wont and havent watched for years ( the divorce) now.Not on youtube or anything else.What kate does I dont care.When the kids are being forced to work...I care.
I dont come here to attack people.I believe all have a right to thier opinion.I just question them from time to time.If you cant stand her WHY give her any attention ? Why comment on her shows? her shirts? her pants? her shorts? where she parks? who she see's?
The kids didnt sign up for this.When they are being worked to death...I'm gonna say something!
I'm not wasting my time on her...I'm trying to get the kids some privacy!Each to thier own I guess!

take the time to view these slides. #3 is a corker. Crayola Factory. Kate looks as if she is wearing horns. Good Grief. Thank you E! for the laughs.
That nautical rope w/black background is so 80's/90's. I donated mine years ago. too bad, I could have sent them to Kate.
