Discussion thread: Kate on 'Katie'
We're hearing Katie Couric actually asked some tough questions, about the book Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled the World, Kate's hired help, and going back to nursing.Check local listings.
1177 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 801 – 1000 of 1177 Newer› Newest»Now other gossip sites are saying that Jon made a copy of Kate's hard drive and gave to Robert. We all know how mad Jon was and maybe Jon & Robert together wanted to get even. Then the "I am Sorry" to Kate from Jon. Then the BOOK comes closer to being released. Hopefully Robert is correct. What ever happens the G8 will lose. The whole thing is so sad.
I need to get happy so I'm going to call my grandsons, ask how their day was in school, and blow them goodnight kisses through the phone. Most of all, I want to tell them how loved and special they are (something I'm afraid Kate's kids do not hear).
Good night all.
Kate - one word. DEGAUSSE.
No Kate, it's not french for "gassy".
Kiwi...can we assume that you are feeling better? Hi.
You are too fake in your interviews and on twitter. Be yourslef all the time.
----------------
Um, no. The fake Kate is better than being herself. Trust me.

One of the best questions to come out of the book, after citing Steve Neild's very impressive resumé, providing protection for presidents and royalty: how do you go from a resumé like that to following Kate Gosselin around carrying her shopping bags?
------------------
Skeeve Pinkerton does not have an impressive cv. He has a very carefully worded cv.
If Jon had any role in creating copies of Kate's computer files, I think it was something he did as his normal role in the family. Here's what makes sense to me. Jon was the IT person and probably made regular backups to disc of the family's computers. All those discs and backup copies were kept in the garage apartment where Jon lived. After the divorce Kate trashed everything he left behind, not realizing that those old backups were there.
As usual, I'm a day late and a dollar short - literally ;) On top of it all, I missed the window of opportunity to get my paws on "The Book". Thank goodness for this blog, though I can't keep up with the threads.
Not that my daughter would ever be invited to Gosselin Manor (she's about ten years too old), the invitation would be declined. I don't know if it's been mentioned, but I would also be concerned about any "journalists" hanging around snapping pics. I realize it's probably not possible because most have changed their phone numbers and Kate cannot contact them. Or else they have restraining orders against her. Seriously, I wouldn't chance my kid's name or identity being associated with Gosselinland. There are rabid Sheeple salivating for any info and of course the Publicity W*ore herself, desperately attempting to look normal.
I agree with you Aggiemom. She consistently talks out of both sides of her botoxed mouth, which is a talent in and of itself!

My friend's niece was actually in a pic with the gosselins. That family lives up in the area and were playing at a playground where the nanny took the kids. Paps were there taking pics.
This was back in late 2010, I think, as she showed me at her Christmas party that year. My friend had the pic on her fridge, it was from the tabloids.
It happens.

They can't see the pool area, nor could they get in the gates, and unless Kate paraded all of the kids around the front of the house, I wouldn't worry about paps.
Would you take your child out of a school if the Gosselins were enrolled there?

Zoe, that makes perfect sense, especially if she was in one of her blind rages. Even if she saw the disks and other stuff, there is no reason to think she thought about ''backup'', in her mind they were still JON'S, so out they went!! I bet you are right on the money!!
Regarding Skeeve protecting the President. No way in he!! is that true. He was never in the secret service. The most I can believe he did was make sure specific streets were blocked for motorcades, etc. Professional body guards are trained to be in the background and not seen. He has ben all over the tabloids since day one.
Maybe the beatings Colin received and Alexis being banished to the basement at the old house formed their behavior that got them expelled from Kindergarten.
OT.....I got my copy of Amy Roloff's cookbook. The recipes are great, simple and delicious. The pictures are professional and make you want to try all the recipes in the book.

Thank you for your post! The more I read Robert's book the sadder I feel! But your comments actually made me laugh! It was so funny!
Thanks again!!
Lets throw tomatoes
According to his bio/experience on the webpage, he never said he protected President Clinton. It's cleverly worded not to say that. It says "close protection PLANNING," which means that he may have assisted with the President's security team in some capacity:
"His experience has included work for the 2000 Olympics, the 2001 Queensland Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM), close protection planning and management for the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), for the Royal Families of Britain, Thailand, and Brunei, U.S. President Clinton, and many other elected heads of state."
good theory about Jon and the back up disc's. Makes perfect sense.
I have a 'techie' hubby - not by training, just an interest. And many friends who are true computer scientists. It is VERY normal protocol to have drives and storage and back ups...we have them. I don't know a thing about them or what the heck is on them. But apparently it is imperative to have them lol.
No way would Jon NOT have done this to important things - Kate's work, family photos, important documents etc.
Computers crash all of the time. Most people do some sort of backing up on a regular basis.
I think people need to remember here (ahem, anger issues) that we are all different. Some of us are retired, some of us are still in college, some of us never went to college.
My point is that everyone's education level, age and station in life is ~different~. Therefore we all have different opinions on things.
Not trying to stir things up, just gently reminding everyone that we are all different due to life experiences, age and even education level. What might be right for you, may not be right for some - Diff'rent Strokes theme song
Reading the book, reading here, looking at twitter, watching Katie Couric's show. I, too, was feeling sad, overwhelmed and pretty damn testy.
Last night I thought I'd light a few more candles and get some peace in my heart. Discovered our "15" group had been hijacked. It's a little better today, but it made me very sad to see the sheep weren't even smart enough to create their own group.
I do plan to keep doing the chapter summaries and have started the next one I just haven't had as much time as I need to finish, hopefully tomorrow I'll post the next one. A lot of big exciting stuff going on in my personal life that leaves less time for blogging. Thank goodness for staff and for 15 MinuteMen who all get along. :)

President Clinton uses Secret Service Agents for protection. But when dignitaries like him travel around they might hire several dozen or more private security people and employ cops too to assist with road closures and help out at big events that are too much for just a few SS people to handle. I'm guessing this is what Steve did. He is one of thousands of Joe Blows who have "protected" Clinton. He probably never even met him.

If you had a job and worked all day you'd be surprised what you wouldn't have time to ponder.
Question for the enabler who thinks we all need psychiatric help:
Why do you hate children?
Children were BEATEN and you think We need help?
They can't see the pool area, nor could they get in the gates, and unless Kate paraded all of the kids around the front of the house, I wouldn't worry about paps.

How did they get this pic?
http://www.realitytvkids.com/2011/06/discussion-thread-6-becomes-7-and.html
Or is that just an official TLC photographer taking pap-ish photos.
Yep, the secret service hires local guys to help with security. Probably what Steve did.
My brother was hired to help guard President Bush several times.
They're roaring down the tarmac at 100 mph, my brother driving the fake presidential limo, a secret service guy in the passenger seat, the high patrol ahead of them.
My brother says to the guy, "Usually when I'm driving *this* fast, the highway patrol is BEHIND me."
Guy never even cracks a smile.
Another time he called in a suspicious person, who turned out to be one of the secret service guys. :-)
My brother gets a kick out of bragging to people that he was on President Bush's security team. Which, I guess, is technically true.
How ridiculous is it that Kate requires a CA? From what I have seen, the good people of PA are some of the most discreet people on the planet.
The only person who violates her children's privacy and sells their pictures and true life stories on a regular basis is Kate.
I don't know if others can speak to this too but it's not normal at all for celebs to require confidentiality agreements just to have some friends around or over.
Have you read the whole Gosselin book Adm?
I couldn't finish the book only got half way. So I hope you do the whole thing.
Just popped back in for a sec, don't know what this is in reference to...but..
level of education, age, race, creed, has nothing to do with being a compassionate, caring, empathetic, decent, caring, giving person.
___
___
It was in reference to carrying a large (shoplifter) purse as opposed to a tiny clutch, and nothing about a person's bag preference reflecting on how compassionate or caring the person is.
I think the CA discussion was a result of the tups birthday party in the park that was going to be filmed. I believe RH wrote about it in The Book. Someone correct me if I'm wrong please.
I don't know if the upcoming twins party requires a CA agreement. Pretty stupid if it does.
CA agreement is redundant isn't it?
Really? Are some of you just looking for an arguement. Sheesh. Was trying to help, not argue. Get off your high horse, please. No where did I say ANYTHING about "being a compassionate, caring, empathetic, decent, caring, giving person.".
I guess I'm wrong for simply taking that for granted. Stupid me.
Thank, All This Is That, for the support.

-------------------
Nope. Not normal for film stars, sports celebs, politicos, royalty. Then again, they do use background checks and, shock of shockers, actually KNOW the people they invite over.

If I offended you in any way I apologize. I did say I had no idea what it was in reference to, it appeared that is was due to some sort of conflict contrived from age, education level, etc.

Far less important, but I want also to say that I'm really happy to hear that our Book Club is continuing.
Thanks for all you're doing for us (for child advocacy), no matter what's going on in your "other life."

I'm not being ''testy'' in the least, when I say that sometimes it is best to leave first thoughts in your mind! Sometimes it's best to just think and not say out loud.
Okay, so I'm thinking we could all use a moment of levity, c/o the Queen o' Clean herself.
First, her CC tweet of the day:
Keep ur home nice and clean w/ this Shark Deluxe Steamer Pocket Mop for just $34.99 from @CouponCabin! http://bit.ly/K8clean
And from the comments thread (which I confirmed for myself):
XXXXX If you read carefully, it says factory refurbished!
So to summarize: Kate is the modern day equivalent of the door-to-door fuller brush salesperson, hawking after-market (i.e. used) products to a handful of die-hard fans.
I wholly support her efforts to bring in a paycheck. I just think this gig speaks volumes as to how far down the road this "reality star" has traveled.
Zoe (#9), you have come up with a very plausible and reasonable explanation for how the disks found their way to the trash. Without any further explanation from anyone involved, it's my best guess as to what happened.
Kate is a pig (#18), thanks for the calming words. It is also important to note that 12 year old children are also different. I would not have any fears about Kate physically abusing any of the child-guests; but it is certainly possible, if not likely, that something will happen causing her temper to flare and her ugly mouth given free reign. I don't have any children of my own, but I do have three nieces and a nephew who are all a bit older than the G8. If two of my nieces had been witness to verbal abuse at age 12 by an adult, they wouldn't be much bothered. However, the other two are much more tender by nature and probably would have been traumatized. As a parent, if you know sending your child to another home might expose them to situations not familiar to them, you have to discern whether they are mature enough to handle it.
I certainly don't want to get preachy here; but would like to share something from a Scott Hahn bible study I have been doing by myself at home. The most recent subject was sin and the separation from God as the consequence. One of his "points" is that when we no longer suffer consequences for our unacceptable behaviour (karma if you prefer that to "consequences"), we should be very worried as that is God's indication he is letting us have our own way.
It almost made me feel sorry for Kate; but I am sure my pity won't last THAT long.
Also, earlier I had asked a question about the lawyers for Kate and TLC. If they are planning to file suit against Robert, can they be busily destroying any evidence Kate/TLC may have that shows them in a poor light or are they bound to maintain any relevant documents (since they have already sent the C&D letters, even though no suits have been filed yet)?
The truth sometimes hurt, Lancaster Parent. Tamara is allowed to say what she feels. Welcome to the internet.
------------------
Sometimes the truth does hurt, but nobody knows what the truth is in this case. Abuse may have been reported...we just don't know because CPS investigations are confidential.

Oh Genevieve, I am so glad you came in here to join in snarking at Lancaster Parent. I can't tell you how much I agree with what you said!! You are SO right! Tamara is 'aloud' to say what she feels. What is WRONG with Lancaster Lady anyway? You are so sweet to welcome Lancaster Parent to the internet! Once again, I want to say again that I am SO in agreeance with you!!
The Piggie Pie poster needs to let it go.
Use your own name and stop the passive-agressive games.
Moving on, how can the sheeple keep blaming Robert? Regardless of how he discovered the information it is true and real.
If Charles Manson tells you 2+2=4, he is correct. It's not about the source, it's about the truth. This is not about Robert, it's about Kate.
My opinion is that some of the sheeple are seeing the light. Their foolish pride won't allow them to admit it, but I believe minds have be changed.
How did MsGoody like the "Mr. Chocolate" name Kate came up with? And will she blame Mr. Kreider for Kate's abortion?
Please tell me whatt is passive-aggressive about "why do you hate children?" Sounds pretty direct to me.
So nice that you were named "Moi," your parents were very original.

By gosh I think you have hit the nail on the head Zoe. That is probably about how it went down. I am sure that Robert H. knew that Jon had been tossed out and he just waited for her to trash what was left of him.
I read about half of the book and had to stop for a while. She is vile. Reading what she has done to her children is very disturbing.
oh, and by the way, Genevieve, since you are on the internet welcoming committee, does that mean you are treating me to a round at the Rumspringa Brewery tomorrow...or do I have to pay?

You're playing off a sheeple name because you feel violated by that person.

Just heard that Kate will be on 'Watch What Happens Live' on October 11th with Morgan Fairchild. Guess I will not be watching the show that night!
Are you sure the full moon isn't until October 29th? I find myself wishing that Kate would go back to her manic twittering so that so that the drive bys will have somewhere else to go.
That being said, I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH EVERYTHING THAT THE DRIVE BYS ARE SAYING AND I'M GLAD THAT THEY'RE HERE TO SCHOOL US!!!!!!!!
Hello I hate kate, too. I think I know where you're coming from. *grin*

I agree that this makes sense. It sure seems plausible.
Parent and Auntie - I'm sending you a virtual runspringa your way. Cheers!
Annonymous...2 I agree in most instances that if a person has an abortion that is a private matter. But not this one. Kate's claim was that she had PCOS and couldn't get pregnant. With PCOS you don't ovulate so therefore you don't get your period. So if she did get pregnant at the age of 17 and have an abortion, she didn't have PCOS. If I recall, when she got pregnant with the tups, she was advised to do a reduction. She refused as it was against her beliefs. Where was that belief when she was 17. According to RH, her father made her get one. Where the hell were her pastor father's beliefs if that was true. So I think in this situation the revelation of the abortion was necessary.
I respectfully disagree with your assessment that Kate could be on TV one day with training. She may think she has the gift of gab but she does not. She can't put together a string of coherent sentences. She was on a reality tv show. So because of that she thinks she can have a talk show. Think again.
You say she is fake in interviews and on twitter. You want her to be real. Did you watch the show! This is the woman who constantly said theirs was the realist of reality shows. She was being real on the show and she is really a bitch. She now says the last few shows where she was a bitch was due to editing. Honey, they can't edit what you don't give them. The RV episode was TLC's FU.
You think she's beautiful and thin but that only gets you so far. A person has to have talent. And she has none of that. As far as professional help. That would take years and a ton of money. Her money which she would refuse to spend. You make no mention in your post of the child abuse. We saw the abuse, verbal, emotional and physical to the kids and her husband. Do you honestly think this women deserves another show on TV? I don't.

*************************************
You're right. I think they know that all of this is true, especially since Kate, her lawyers and TLC haven't denied any of it. They acted the same way when the divorce was coming down. They denied it until the bitterest of ends- they refused to believe it and we were all rotten for even suggesting it. Then, when the divorce show show announced it, they immediately turned on Jon and crucified him.
The abortion is a double edged sword. Even if Mr. Kreider made her get one, the fact that she got pregnant as a teen is one of the biggest bombshells in the book. And I fully agree with everyone who says this is a private and personal matter and they are uneasy that it was included. It is relevant however, because it completely blows the lid off her claims that she always thought she couldn't get pregnant.
The first time I heard that I thought WTF? WHO thinks that? What young, healthy newlywed thinks that way? They don't, unless they've been actively trying for a baby without success for over a year. Kate was pregnant with the help of fertility treatment six months after her marriage.
It finally makes sense. Kate didn't use the Dr. she used for the twins and never gave a good reason. We now know that Dr. wanted to do IVF this 2nd time around and transfer just one embryo- so there would only be just one more.
Kate wanted 6 or 7 more and found a Dr. who bought her story and would agree to more IUI. No Dr. would inseminate a woman with 5-7 ripe follicles. That man probably crapped himself when the woman he inseminated showing 3-4 ripe follicles showed up pregnant with 7 babies. As Preesi said, none of them are twins. There is no other explanation that could be possible other than the one given by Robert, that Kate injected herself with more hormones.
Kate has finally backed herself into a corner and it's about damn time. Sure Kate, go ahead and sue Robert. Go through a long drawn out trial where all your dirty secrets come out. How disappointing for you that if you want to take Robert to court, he is entitled to present his defense. Break the hearts of your 6 fans and their 10 socks by letting it come to light that the entire Multiple Blessings book is a lie and you illegally bought drugs out of the country to makes sure you got your moneymakers. Maybe every single report to CPS comes out too.
Pleeease sue him, he said there's 90% more stuff he didn't include. I'm dying to hear it.
Hi back atcha Dmasy :) Yes, thank you, I am feeling better. So, I guess, it shows? LOL
Rocketman asked that very question today. He said there were two clues, for him, that the cloud was lifting. First - the conversation he overheard (and he says I'M nosy)that I had with the robo-caller "Rachel" from "cardholder services". Most of you know her, the lovely lady who calls from every area code on the planet to let you know this is your last chance to reduce your credit card interest rates. Lives next door too "security" people who want you to know FBI statistics regarding break-ins and a mile southeast of the people who want you to know you've won a free cruise. Normally, I pick up the receiver, press end and that's it for an hour or so. But THIS time I engaged the recorded voice of "Rachel" telling her thanks but we'd already filed for bankruptcy, asked if she'd thought about calling the members of congress, on both sides of the aisle, as I'd heard they could use some help, what with the trillion or so debt they've racked up but she didn't hear it from me, as I'm not one to gossip. I warned her competition was horning in on her, of all things pretending to BE her and I could give her ALL their phone numbers. Then I politely said goodbye. Rocketman said it was a dead giveaway because I usually only cuss and hang up. Thought it was encouraging that I was talking...to anybody/anything.
2nd clue also had to do with phone calls from yet another number neither of us could identify. I picked up the receiver and just held it up until the inevitable hang-up...not even a recording. My MO - keep the incoming calling number tied up with silence. I KNOW. I'm a genius. You're welcome. Don't call me. This time, I pulled up caller ID and redialed the number. Soon I was laughing so hard Rocketman felt he HAD to come ask.
We have an unlisted number. As such, our phone number is blocked on outgoing calls. The phone number I redialed rang and rang and rang. Finally, a recording "answered" advising "We(still have no idea who "we" is/was)are unable to decipher the phone number you are calling from (no shit Sherlock, it's an unlisted number). Remove all blocking tactics (Yes, "tactics" - what am I, them?) and then you will be able to opt out".
So,
A. They call me - a robo call dialing a random set of numbers.
B. I answer but keep silent. Robo call hears no human voice and hangs up.
C. I immediately call them back and THEY refuse MY call because THEY can't figure out MY number(shoe meet other foot).
D. This happens often enough that the advice given is to remove MY blocks so I can opt out. Of what, you say? EXACTLY.
Does that fit the definition of irony? I don't know. I used to know, but that Alanis Morissette song messed that up for me. In any event, I find it funny, or at least today I did. Sue me. My DD is a lawyer - a lit.i.ga.tor. so watch it.
Those two clues together with my having emerged from hiding in the bed under the covers in a dark room led him to believe I might be feeling better. Which made him happy as he said we were out of tissues and I had MORE than used up my allotment. Plus he needed ironing done "when I felt up to it" (I'm thinking he rethought that comment after I chucked the bottle of water on the night stand at him - with the cap off).
One more thing people. A HIPAA question. To the anonymous poster who suggested many/some of us here needed therapy. How exactly is it you know that we aren't already in therapy ? Hmmmm? Whose doctors are talking? If that last sentence doesn't make sense, then perhaps others need therapy...hmmm? hmmm? (help, my mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm key is sticking).
I blame ambien.
Someone unthread said that Kate is going to be on Watch What Happens Live on the 11th (not in my listing BTW). Andy named her Jackhole of the Day once for "inviting people to spend thousands of dollars to go on a cruise with her so she can run around the ship yelling at other peoples kids....Why?"
I would like to see her on that show and I'd like to see her play "plead the 5th". Andy also takes twitter questions (live) and phone calls. He can and does get very personal (all the while wearing that big grin of his). I'd watch.
Kiwi@74...
Please forgive me, but I have no idea what in the heck you are talking about! :-)
It appears that CC is getting rid of Kart. First, they removed her blog, next they will remove her photo from their site and then their links from her twitter feed will disappear. I wonder how many CC employees read the book. Kart can get blotchy and cry over and over on these talk shows, but no one will hire her or use her as a spokesperson. All the makeup in the world can't cover her inner ugliness. Maybe she'll receive an offer to do porn with her spanking spoon, but that's about it. She's too toxic and evil.

After the divorce Kate trashed everything he left behind, not realizing that those old backups were there.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I bet that's it!!!! And old Katie Irene did this to herself in her rages!!! Of course it's all what's she's done to herself but she will NEVER EVER accept responsibility for her role in all of this!
I've never watched Watch What Happens Live, but wouldn't they also have to use the pre-approved questions? And why all of a sudden is she getting on all these shows? What exactly is she promoting...her show? Hahahaha!
WWHL is not that kind of talk show. Most of the questions/conversation is off the cuff.
Genevieve, I am not in the mood for rumspringa either. I had some nice sangria this evening! Want some? I have plum wine too!
And yes, I do hate other peoples children who are nowhere near as attractive or talented or as intelligent or as well mannered as MY children were at that age! I especially hate other peoples sick children, dontcha know that kids with runny noses should be banished to somewhere out of the public eye until their doggone noses stop running!
On a lighter note, Dancin With Them Thar Stars is under tight security as there have been threatening letters to Bristol Palin. Wonder if they checked the letters for Ms Kreider fingerprints? She is still mad the Palin posse actually tried to help the kids have a good time on that Alaska trip.
But Kate doesn't "do" off the cuff...should be interesting.
They get drunk on WWHL. Should be interesting and will be the first KG performance I'm willing to watch.
Andy was on Anderson Cooper today. Nothing mentioned.
No worries Sleepless...neither do I.
I'd sure like to see KATE take a lie detector test....on camera...with the results televised. Maybe Steve, too.
Reasons you would keep wooden cooking spoons in your car:
Whip up a quick batch of cookies on the go

Hmmm...what else?
What kind of program is Watch What Happens? We don't have it on our Bravo here in good old Canada.

To replace a windshield wiper no wait I know you put a paper towel on the end of it and clean the windshield with it?
Mel -- we don't even have to speculate as to why there is a spoon in the van. Kate has a journal entry where she says that one of the twins is having a moody day and she uses the spoon that has been newly added to the van to discipline her. She says that the twin, " happied right up."
Just another story Kate told on herself....
AuntieAnn, I like this one of yours...I can't help it. It makes me smile.
"She pretends it's a microphone and practices speaking into it? She's gonna be a talk show host doncha know."
You guys are great, I've laughed for the first time since THE Book reveal.
Flight of the Kiwi, I'm so glad you're feeling better but I wouldn't have missed that story above (75) for anything. It put a smile on my face.
Can I ask if there is a recipe for Rumspringa? It is rum and spring water or is it called that because it puts a spring in your step???
Thanks so much, I can't wait to hear back. ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That made me go back and read #65 and I don't either.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but Kate Couric had her TV show filmed at her apartment just a few days ago. Before the filming of it at her home, she had several famous people over. Two of those were Jimmy Fallon and Andy Cohen, host of Bravo, "Watch What Happen Live". Well, on Katie's website on that day of filming, under the section of Behind The Scenes is where Andy and others can be seen.
So, is Kate being on Andy's show because Katie was talking to Andy about having her on her TV show the next day. Or maybe all the interest in Kate's book is why Andy decided to invite Kate on his show.
I just hope this book doesn't bring Kate back into the public. She was at her absolute lowest in the public eye right before this book.
That made me go back and read #65 and I don't either.
------------
Okay, maybe I am inebriated. Where did anonymous post#65 go?
Believe me, I'm no fan of Matt Roloff. He's a child exploiter. HOWEVER, he finagled himself a new series. 'Wedding Farm' where he (rather all the paid help, yes, I noticed you are just like Kate, Matt) transforms his land into a wedding venue.
Wonder how much TLC paid for all the contracted help the Roloff's received? Matt's no dummy.
I see 65 as Dmsay talking to swimmer mama about Kate on WWHL...am I missing something.
I blame ambien. Oh, and what's a run spring?
Maggie thanks for the Andy info. It's beginning to make sense to me!
( 1 ) she pays thousands of dollars to lawyers even though she is 100% guilty of child abuse! WHY??
( 2 ). She is delaying the process, buying time, and getting help from TLC and the lazy entertainment media!
( 3) she is trying to change image, I've changed, I'm trying to not be so tough, blah, blah!
( 4 ) changes the conversation from her being a child abuser to failed marriage to dating show!
( 5 ). Maybe already a dating show on Bravo or going to try to get one!
( 6 ) my bet, she already has one! We will see soon enough!
If she gets a T V job it's not God that's helping her!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LOL I don't know but I'm dying to know about Rumspringa cause I have the rum handy. ;)
Andy Cohen is Bravo's Executive Vice President of Development and Talent.
Ut-Oh She's working hard for that dating show.
I could be wrong but I don't think they put up with too much of that diva stuff.They have too many diva's. Can you see her in a Real Housewife show? They'll eat her up and spit her out.
But, as Robert Hoffman expressed in his book, Kate is nothing without those kids. Would a judge allow her to put them on tv against Jon's wishes (assuming those are his wishes)?
Also, Kate hasn't talked very highly of The Real Housewives and they air on Bravo.
This is all getting rather interesting. I do think Andy Cohen would sell his soul (and has, from the sounds of TRHofNJ) for ratings.
Kate got a little lucky yesterday. Obviously Katie C. had not had a chance to read The Book (she said it was reported to be libelous and had been removed from the shelves) so she was just going on scant information someone had given her. I doubt she would have had the time in her busy schedule to sit down and read it herself.
Had she read the book I think the interview would have been much different.
Kate's just hanging on by a thread. Once this book gets out there again she's toast.

Where's Jon - It's a deeply kept secret which we keep in a Hermetically sealed #2 mayonnaise jar on Funk and Wagnall's porch. We'll have to hold a meeting where we will vote on whether or not it can be shared online ;o)
An excerpt from Robert's Book:
“Another thing Kate Gosselin is guilty of is leaving Shoka outside in the cold and rain all night, most times as a ‘punishment’ for his misbehaving, or acting like a dog. He’s left alone in the dark howling to come inside. I’ve heard it and I’ve heard about it. So has Kate. So much so that Shoka wrote another two blogs on this topic – a few months apart because it’s a regular thing with Kate – to let us know that he really, really loves being locked out of the house on a cold, dark, rainy night.”
On Easter Sunday, 2012 – four months after Kate blogged about dogs choking on certain toys and plastic bread wrappers – and with ‘1,400’ stuffed, plastic Easter eggs laying all over her property, Shoka was aloud to run free, eating as many sharp, plastic eggs as he could, while Kate was in the house drinking wine. (She tweeted the photo of the wine telling us what she was doing.) At one point, Shoka was even eating them directly out of the garbage bag used to carry them around the yard by a stranger who layed them out for the kids. His entire head was in the plastic bag eating the plastic Easter eggs. Kate never once set foot outside to check on him. It’s a miracle poor Shoka is still alive."

o_o Please do not open that jar! It (the recipe) could self destruct and be lost forever. I did that once to a jar of moonshine and lost the whole thing!
I have ESP and I'm sure I'll receive the info without online publication if you guys allow it in your meeting. Just let me know cause I do need to concentrate a bit. Now in preparation I am going to search for my rabbit ears.
I will abide by the majority's decision. Thank you so much! ;)
Well, I think that's what happened to the moonshine? To tell you the truth after a few sips I don't rightly remember but next day the jar was empty.
I don't think Bravo would want Kate for a housewive show! I 'm thinking its a dating show! What's up with all of the dating show talk about, 'I don't know I'm very suspicious !
I would hate for her to get a show she is so undeserving!
BTW, people who don't agree with Kate are labeled as Haters, so as of today I'm going to name Kate's fans as Enablers! If the shoe fits they need to wear them!
( Let's throw tomatoes )
I don't think it's PA I think it's just representative of the fact that much of America, after all this time, still thinks of children as chattel for adults to do as they please with them, physically, sexually, financially. It's a sick reality.
All I can say is it seems Bravo thrives on controversy and I think will use Kate in a heartbeat if it means ratings.
Believe me, I'm no fan of Matt Roloff. He's a child exploiter. HOWEVER, he finagled himself a new series. 'Wedding Farm' where he (rather all the paid help, yes, I noticed you are just like Kate, Matt) transforms his land into a wedding venue.
&&&
Interesting. The guy is a good business man there is no denying that. This is what Kate could have done, figured out ways to transition into the next big thing. I do think she tried but she stinks so bad at so many things it never worked.
I have a question? Why would the dog be eating plastic eggs unless they were hungry?
URL, Kate's blog is still up on CC, but her last real blog post was Sept 24, and the latest one isn't even written in the first person. It's just a general announcement about her next two races. I wonder if after these races they'll cut her loose.
"Tuesday, November 21, 2006 I was hard on Joel the last few days… he says ‘no’ way too often and I must work that out of him!"
She is a monster.
&&&
Poor poor precious baby. "No" was probably the only thing he could do or say to try to defend himself against Kate and she tried to even take that away from him.
One day, no WILL mean no when they sue the pants off her for every last red cent she ever spent of theirs.
I'm such a dog lover! I'm allergic to dogs and I have two and they sleep on our bed! Hearing those stories about Shoka makes me so sad! She is such a bitch!
I don't drink but I need a drink! It has to be a lot stronger than a rumspringa!
( Let's throw tomatoes )
Admin, wonder when her contract is up?
I think Matt's more a good CON man than a businessman. He also knows how to kiss butt regarding his producers. Kate never figured that part out. It's 'beneath' her. LOL

Morgan Fairchild & Kate Gosselin
PREMIERE: Thursday October 11, 11 pm
Talking about Shoka and Kate's fake love for him twitter, here is a sentence from the book.
…As we were getting out of the car, a lady’s black dog ran over and licked my leg (we all know how much I love dogs – ha ha.)
Yes, Kate we know you hate dogs and that is why we are concerned for Shoka.
July 26, 2006
Mady was grouchy and received a few spankings with the spanker that newly joined the emergency supply stash in the big blue bus!!!! She eventually happied up!
________________________
So Kate admits in her own words that she put The Spanker in the BBB. And Kate is still spanking the kids at age 51/2. Sad indeed. And Mady received "a few spankings" for being grouchy. BITCH.
I know there's at least one person here who says s/he knows Jon personally. What sort of a relationship they have, I don't know, but I'd like to request that they make a specific effort to contact him ONLY for the purpose of finding out the truth about Shoka, and then let us know. I have a feeling I'm going to get jumped on for asking this, but - oh well.
Okay I'm back for a brief moment because a) I have some insomnia and b) I heard about the Bravo show. It looks to be a late night talk show with lots of former stars and D-List reality show celebs. Not sure what the premise is but this is just a guest spot for Kate not an actual series starring her, again as best I can tell. I'd paste the link but my phone won't let me. Just google Morgan Fairchild Kate Gosselin.
Now off to get some sleep. Night all. :-)
October 27, 2006 Quick entry because I am ‘Lunestad’ for work tomorrow!
I had to look up up Lunestad meant. Lunesta is a sleeping pill that was put on the market in 2004. Interesting Kate took it. I don't blame her but I have never heard of her using any meds.
The Bravo TV show, "Watch What Happens Live", has a lot of "A" stars on it too. For instance, Jimmy Fallon is a frequent guest. Kate and Morgan Fairchild will appear together the whole time on the show. It is a very lighthearted and it has a bartender in the background. All the guests drink on air with Andy. The show plays games and such. It is only a 1/2 hour show.
"I was starving and weak from not eating ALL day… it was not pretty!!!!"
Why wasn't Kate eating ALL day. I wonder what she meant by it was not pretty!!!! She had filmed that day shopping at Giant with the camera crew. Giant donated what Kate bought that day. And she went over budget, of course.
Kiwi #72 - So glad you are feeling better! Rachel calls me all the time, too! Do you ever get the call with the boat horn blaring saying you have won a cruise? That one annoys me more that Rachel because it comes on my cell phone (which is my emergency Batphone for my kiddos to get in touch with me - I don't use it for chatty calls). First it scares me ("oh, no, is something wrong??"), then it pisses me off.
On the possibility of Khate being on WWHL with Andy Cohen - I wonder if Khate has any idea how that show goes? I can't imagine that she would willingly participate, and I can't imagine that Andy Cohen would sign on to pre-approved questions/topics with any guest.

"Collin decided to pour the beans all over the floor while I was inside peeling potatoes, so the girls told me and I sent all the offenders inside. Well Collin didn’t like that I sent him in and when I was out in the garage, I heard three large bangs… I went inside and three highchairs were on the floor literally. I was instantly so SO angry, that I grabbed him and spanked him as hard as I could and thought I may seriously injure him so I sent him to his crib…. I was instantly so SO angry, that I grabbed him and spanked him as hard as I could and thought I may seriously injure him so I sent him to his crib…. And whipped him into it very hard! I for the first time thought I may really lose it and am glad that I just let him in his crib til Jon came home! I have never felt that I may really seriously injure a child but today was that day!"
___
She spanked him as hard as she could and thought she may seriously injure him. She whipped him very hard! She thought she might really lose it. She thought she may have seriously injured him.
Why isn't that written about. People say oh, my parents spanked me--it is no big deal. But this isn't that kind of a spanking at all.
And she wanted Collin to apologize to her after this. Unbelievable...fucking unbelievable. He was two and a half.
This needs to get out to the media. This is not just spanking.
One good thing about Kate being on WWHL with Morgan Fairchild is Morgan Fairchild is about as relevant as Kate is nowadays. When was the last time MF acted in anything. Andy is good friends with Anderson Cooper and Kelly Ripa and we know how Anderson feels about Kate and Kelly hasn't had Kate on her show in two years. But Andy does get A-list stars on his show. Liam Neeson and Ethan Hawke were both on the other night.

#######################
She needs it to ward off fans.
Wow! I took the night off last night because I needed a KK break, and it looks like all heck, if not he**, broke loose! I'm going to hit on a couple of things even if they are old news.
Zoe 9 -- ITA with your assessment of what happened re Robert's discovery of the information. I notice that the tabs keep obsessing about Jon giving Robert "the hard drives", egged on, no doubt by the inestimable Al Walentis (SNARK). Robert didn't say anything about hard drives. He also didn't say he found computers. He says he found discs, files and documents. I can't see KK throwing out computers and hard drives,even if they belonged to Jon. Those are things she might be able to sell to make a few pennies.
Kiwi -- I'm SO glad you're back to your old self. Loved your riff on robo calls. I'm going to try that technique myself next time. Reckon it works on political calls too?
The rumspringa secret must be guarded at all cost! Runspring, OTOH, can be passed along to all who ask. It's but a pale imitation of the real thing. Just like KK is a pale imitation of a human being.
capecodmama -- I agree with most of your post. However -- a woman with PCOS can get pregnant the usual way. A friend of mine has it for real (diagnosed at age 13, when one of the cysts ruptured) and has 3 kids conceived the normal way). Also, a woman who doesn't ovulate usually has a normal period. That's what the pill does. It suppresses ovulation. I agree, however, that KK doesn't have PCOS.
KK's comments about Joel saying "no" too much really made me angry. It's a 2 year old's JOB to say "no". They're learning to set boundaries and haven't learned better ways to communicate it at that point. It's the parent's JOB to teach them better ways to learn, grow and express themselves, not to beat it out of them.
I had a little accident last night. Went to the library to look up some information on one of their databases that can't be accessed from home. Went to sit down on the computer chair, it rolled, and next thing I knew, I was flat on my back on the floor, looking up at a couple of librarians. Aside from wishing the floor would open up and swallow me, and having a VERY sore backside, I'm okay, but talk about the need for some rumpspringa! Good thing my backside is well-padded, though, LOL. It's all sorts of interesting colors today, and I'm sure it'll be pretty colorful for a while. I'm also not moving around very easily, so expect to hear from me quite a bit today. I'm glad I wasn't scheduled to work. No way would I be able to keep up with a bunch of kindergartners! Now, where did I put that donut pillow?
Bwaaahaaahaaa! The ad on my page is for "classic monsters"!! Of course, it has nothing to do with KK. It's a boxed set of the classic horror films, like "Frankenstein" and
"Dracula" and "The Wolfman". but a girl can dream, can't she? ;)
wayward, just wanted to repeat this in case anyone missed it. I totally agree.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
wayward said... 71
You're right. I think they know that all of this is true, especially since Kate, her lawyers and TLC haven't denied any of it. They acted the same way when the divorce was coming down. They denied it until the bitterest of ends- they refused to believe it and we were all rotten for even suggesting it. Then, when the divorce show show announced it, they immediately turned on Jon and crucified him.
The abortion is a double edged sword. Even if Mr. Kreider made her get one, the fact that she got pregnant as a teen is one of the biggest bombshells in the book. And I fully agree with everyone who says this is a private and personal matter and they are uneasy that it was included. It is relevant however, because it completely blows the lid off her claims that she always thought she couldn't get pregnant.
The first time I heard that I thought WTF? WHO thinks that? What young, healthy newlywed thinks that way? They don't, unless they've been actively trying for a baby without success for over a year. Kate was pregnant with the help of fertility treatment six months after her marriage.
It finally makes sense. Kate didn't use the Dr. she used for the twins and never gave a good reason. We now know that Dr. wanted to do IVF this 2nd time around and transfer just one embryo- so there would only be just one more.
Kate wanted 6 or 7 more and found a Dr. who bought her story and would agree to more IUI. No Dr. would inseminate a woman with 5-7 ripe follicles. That man probably crapped himself when the woman he inseminated showing 3-4 ripe follicles showed up pregnant with 7 babies. As Preesi said, none of them are twins. There is no other explanation that could be possible other than the one given by Robert, that Kate injected herself with more hormones.
Kate has finally backed herself into a corner and it's about damn time. Sure Kate, go ahead and sue Robert. Go through a long drawn out trial where all your dirty secrets come out. How disappointing for you that if you want to take Robert to court, he is entitled to present his defense. Break the hearts of your 6 fans and their 10 socks by letting it come to light that the entire Multiple Blessings book is a lie and you illegally bought drugs out of the country to makes sure you got your moneymakers. Maybe every single report to CPS comes out too.
Pleeease sue him, he said there's 90% more stuff he didn't include. I'm dying to hear it.
It is relevant however, because it completely blows the lid off her claims that she always thought she couldn't get pregnant.
The first time I heard that I thought WTF? WHO thinks that?
---------
Good morning to you early birds!
:)
IIRC, Kate said she, as a child, always thought we would have trouble getting pregnant. what CHILD thinks that? I don't think she should have included that thought in the book, due to her getting pregnant as a teenager...that would prove her 'thoughts' untrue.
IIRC too, she had 3 or 4 follicles? then how did those few follicles result in 6 kids, when no twins resulted?
things that make you go, hhhmmm.....
Morgan Fairchild? The queen of plastic surgery? Seldom watch Bravo. Kate's PR is scraping the bottom of the barrel to get her mug out there to show off the "new" Kate. I think they are very concerned about her image from the book.
Yes, most people make backups of what is on their computer so I am sure that Jon would do something like that. I can totally see Kate in a rage throwing out Jon's stuff from the garage apartment including computer cd's. Dumb witch did not realize she was throwing away evidence of her cruelty and arrogance. Jon probably thought all that stuff was long gone to the landfill but did not know he had a guardian angel for him, the kids and Shoka.
So Kate is supposed to appear on "Watch What Happens Live"? This show airs LIVE at 11pm on the east coast.
How is exhaustedish Kate going to be able to stay awake in order to appear on the show?
Since her appearance is scheduled on a Thursday night, is she going to spend that weekend in NYC?
kate is a twit said "Since her appearance is scheduled on a Thursday night, is she going to spend that weekend in NYC?
Isn't she supposed to run in some sort of race in NY that w/e? She probably is going to spend the w/e there. Appearance on a TeeVee show, race, time away from those annoying kids, ignoring her tweeties, SKEEVE time! Of course she won't go home.
readerlady--You're correct. I forgot that she's running the NYC 10K on Saturday. It will definitely be a long weekend stay for her and Skeeve.
You can submit a question or suggestion to the show.
http://www.bravotv.com/watch-what-happens-live/ask-what-happens
This could be good!
not anonymous
nanb
Even tho that show is on at 11pm,I'm sure it's taped earlier in the day. I'm sure she's having a long weekend with Steve. Hope she doesn't pull a so tired card for the twins birthday. Did anyone watch her on Thursday nite?
Interesting corporate connections.
Comcast and GE have joint ownership ofNBCUniversal. There are production companies affiliated with the networks too. Broadcast outlets include NBC, MSNBC, E cable channel, A&E, SyFy, Bravo, Chiller, Cloo, USA, Oxygen, Style, the Weather Channel, Sprout, G4, and the Golf channel, and Telemundo. They also own iVillage and TELEVISION WITHOUT PITY! Check out nbcuni.com for a complete listing.
I remember when Ms Kreider did her horrendous papparazzi dance on Dancin With Them Thar Stars, Jimmy Fallon did the fantastic hilarious parody of it. He later had Ms Kreider on the Emmys opening number, and did give her a shout out on his late night talk show about ”what a good sport she was.” Jimmy and Andy are friends.
Andy Cohen is a shrewd producer. There is a bar on WWHL for an important reason, he wants people with alcohol on board and tongues loosened. He also knows the train wreck factor of things like the Real Housewives. It is also worth noting that WWHL is produced in a relatively small studio with a close knit team. If Ms Kreider disses the production staff, if she dismisses them as being unworthy of her notice, she may be dissing someone who has been Andys right hand from the beginning. He will get her for crap like that.
Ms Kreider is, let's face it, boring. Andy will play up the trainwreck factor to make her interesting a little. Any dating show, if anything ever happens, will definitely be produced as a trainwreck spectacle. And Ms Kreider will not mind because she will have a film crew! And folks,.it will be great for the kiss because she will be away from them more. Win-win!!!!!!!!
Definitely a home party if Kate's buying party supplies and balloons, I would think.Busy with 'work' and 'mommy' stuff.Well, we know what that means, griftng, and 'disciplining'
Hey, 'testy' is a wonderful word! I thought it fit well, harumph! (J/K)
I am feeling bright as I get my car back today, hooray! After almost a month in shop. Insurance still not settled...and I admit I feel nervous to drive it, idk why....
I just read further up and I see that she will be on Oct.11th. Well,I'll try to stay up,but that show is quite lame. Boy,they are really reaching the bottom of the barrel. Especially for their season premiere!!
Sorry to hear about your fall last night, readerlady. Fortunately, you did not hit your head- thank God.
Be well, and be careful.
Take care,
Pink
Formerly Duped, so glad you are getting your car back! Hope everything will be perfect, and you won't have anything to be testy about!
Oh-oh. Make that Pink, not pnk ;o)
On the WWHL website, it says "Sunday-Thursday 11pm*" Then "*live east coast only". So the show is live when it airs on the east coast at 11pm. I've seen the show once or twice, and it can get quite raunchy.
Forgot to give the link to the WWHL website:

Thanks Joy..lol, there's always something though to make one testy!But it's a bright sunny fall day so, so far so good!
readerlady: ouch, sorry about your fall. Be sure your tailbone is ok and maybe sit on a cushion. ;(
Trending on yahoo #2- this is the article..so annoying. "Non-relevant' behavior?" They honed in on her parking and reading 50 Shades...

Reader lady, just catching up backwards and read about your accident! Glad you only injured your pride and your backside.
Flight of Kiwi, enjoyed your telephone technique also. Does Rocket man still have the recliner spaceship? I might need to borrow our again sometime.
Kate's appearing on Watch what happens live?
Not interested in what's going to be a snooze-fest.
What does Kate have to talk about that's interesting? The same old sh*t she always talks about. I think we can all recite what she's going to talk about.
Kate is living a stunted life.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
IIRC when it was getting close to mealtime on the show, Kate's patience would get even shorter, she'd become even more demanding, and she'd meltdown like a toddler. She blamed it on low blood sugar. HA, but if she'd been filming all day and hadn't eaten, I can only imagine how ugly her attitude was!
Formerly Duped--glad to hear you are finally getting your car back. It will probably take a while for the insurance to get settled. When someone plowed into me several years ago, the insurance case was settled until almost 6 months later--but it was settled in my favor!
readerlady--sorry to hear about your fall. Take it easy today. I hope soreness is all you will experience, and that nothing else more major occured.
Readerlady -- so sorry about your accident. Take good care of your bottom. It will be good to have you around for a day!
Readerlady, it has happened to me also, only in front of my husband's squadron when he was in the Navy. I wanted to die!
She will be skanky on any dating show. Not good for those who idolize her as the perfect mom. As long as the kids are left out of it and I think Jon would object to them being filmed in some crapfest show like that, she will further degrade her image. Of course, we are all just speculating that Bravo would have any interest in her. I don't think it's a good idea to give her any attention by submitting questions or emailing. Just let her sink or swim. Bravo is not worth it.
I do not believe anything she tweets. She may still be in NYC for all we know.
Make no mistake: Watch What Happens Live is a big "get" for Kate's PR team. It's a huge hit, especially among women, her key demographic.
A big challenge for Kate, though, is its rapid-fire, audience-interactive format. Viewers tweet, email and post questions/comments to Facebook in real time, and the host (Andy Cohen) puts his guests on the spot with selected questions.
Here's how that works, should you want to interact with Andy beforehand and/or on the night Kate's scheduled to appear.

I'm guessing that Kate's been getting a lot of media coaching of late. We'll see the results when we Watch What Happens live.
iPad users? Are you having trouble posting? I can't seem to enter a name when using the iPad but am fine on the desktop and phone. Anyone have a workaround? I think this started when I upgraded to the new OS.
I wonder if Kate knows that Andy Cohen called her the "Jackhole of the Day" when her cruise was announced.

Anon 156 --- All very true. Andy Cohen is the darling of all those who are into the 'Housewives' shows (and that's a VERY big #) as well as some big name celebs - Kelly Ripa, Anderson Cooper, and is an executive vp of Bravo. Here's his IMDB profile: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0169212/
I've seen the show a few times and he can either love you or skewer you - he's pretty funny and quite sarcastic. He's also into social media so the more anti-Kate info that gets to him, the better. On Twitter he's @BravoAndy.
Formerly Duped, glad to hear you are getting your car back. I also have insurance issues.
Readerlady, sorry to hear about the fall and glad you weren't seriously hurt. I also have a lot of padding in that area. :)
Kiwi, loved your post!
AuntieAnn, I see that you have changed your name to Aunt Anne, as well as the name of our favorite drink. I MUST keep up!
No Jane. My iPad is working fine. No issues with upgrade.

Thanks for replying, appreciate it! Can't imagine what's wrong. I can type a comment but I'm not able to enter my name, even as Anonymous. I'll play around with it over the weekend.
Thanks Twit and JudyK- Judy, hope your car is repaired soon too. We are so dependent on them- in our town there are no buses, so...hope you are managing.
Oh Tweet- just saw your post! So sorry- best of luck. I hope you are ok. Seems a few of us have had accidents lately! Insurance, yes, what a hassle, but gotta have it- I'm not too impressed with mine though.
As long as the Gosselin children as not involved - heck I'm happy as a clam to see Kate make a fool of herself - I think I may stay up to watch - I little late night snicker-fest!!!
Oops, that should be "I love a little late night snicker-fest".
Jane -- my iPad was a new one. I couldn't post either. I went into Google account settings and clicked around. I can't tell you which click was the successful one. But, my name appeared in the "comment as" bar. Good Luck.
I would not hold my breathe about this guy going after Kate. Plenty have said unflattering things but practically kissed her butt when they interviewed her.
I have ipad2. Issue with New iPad?
Tweet-le---so sorry to hear about your car. I hope no one was injured and that you are okay.
Formerly Duped said... 165, thanks much. I'm ok and I'm thankful for that! Yes, seems there have been quite a few accidents going around. Not too impressed with my insurance either. It's been great until I needed it. Good to see you are getting your car back. I'm jealous :).
JudyK So sorry to see you're in the same boat! I've missed many comments lately and I didn't know. UGH! Living in the city sounds good to me right now, someplace where I wouldn't need a car!!!!
Kate said, "Standing in the aisle, picking out the 1 & the 2 candles for Mady and Caras cake. As I reached for them I almost burst in2 tears!"
She chokes up...almost looses it...nearly cried...sat and sobbed...cried out loud...couldn't keep the tears from flowing....etc.
Please understand, I believe there is nothing wrong with the cleansing emotion of crying.
But, Kate uses tears to enhance her personality. Kate is stuck in that immature place where she thinks that crying makes her seem sweet and sympathetic and sensitive. She thinks that crying makes her relatable and huggable. She believe that standing in a store aisle, weeping would make her appealing. That is why she "reports" it to her fans.
She needs to grow up and be a real, strong, accountable woman.
Tweed-De, thank goodness you are OK.
I don't understand Kate's tears/emotion when she says she's been thru a lot. The emotion seemed genuine, but wth is she talking about?
Been thru a lot. Like what?
The two negatives are her own choosing - a divorce and a lot of kids.
Let's see. Other than that what's she been thru?
She has 3 cars that she didn't pay for
She has a mansion on acreage that she didn't pay for
She took a lot of posh trips, with all the kids that she not only didn't pay for, but didn't organize either. All first class.
She took a lot of posh trips with a bodyguard, first class accommodations all the way, that she didn't pay for nor organize
She has a LOT of household help; nanny, cook, laundry, babysitter, lawn boys, house cleaner
She doesn't have to cook if she doesn't want to nor shop for food
During the show craft services provided the food and the cook
She has the power of TLC behind her to clean up all her messes, including legal messes
She has the local police in her back pocket
She parks in the fire lane when no one else is allowed to do that
She never misses on opportunity to publicly trash the kids' dad
She buys the kids' iphones for their birthdays; sounds like a poor struggling mom to me, yep, yep, yep
She has enough free time that she can run races, or pretend she does
She has enough household help that she can be out running for 3-4 hours during the limited time that the kids are home
Public people enable her to continue with her uber mom persona instead of calling her out on her well known, provable, horrible mothering
She has her hair done in NYC, hours away from her home, which she doesn't have to pay for
She limo's to NYC, instead of drives, with a bodyguard in tow
Her designer clothes are donated to her, or comped
TLC organized and put on huge birthday parties for the kids. All she had to do was pick out which cake she wanted.
She has a pool. And pool boy.
Yeah. She's been thru a lot. Poor thing.
Sooo similar to Katie Couric, whose husband DIED at a young age.

Would you take your child out of a school if the Gosselins were enrolled there?
-------------------------------------------------
LOL, no I wouldn't. If I liked the school, I'd stay.
This makes me think about the expulsion refund from the school. Somebody mentioned that Katie Irene didn't ask for it. That makes sense. I tend to think the refund check is more of a severence pro-rated adjustment.
In other words, the enrollment of your child just didn't work out. Here is the portion of your tuition for the period your child won't be enrolled. There are many fine educational facilities that will be sure to benefit your child. Go find one.
I wonder how many people actually re-enroll their kids after expulsion. I'm thinking it doesn't happen that much but when it does the student enrolls elsewhere.
Just another example of no never means no.
(Kate is a Pig)
I think people need to remember here (ahem, anger issues) that we are all different. Some of us are retired, some of us are still in college, some of us never went to college.
My point is that everyone's education level, age and station in life is ~different~. Therefore we all have different opinions on things.
Not trying to stir things up, just gently reminding everyone that we are all different due to life experiences, age and even education level. What might be right for you, may not be right for some - Diff'rent Strokes theme song

I have the iPad 2. I haven't installed the new OS on my iPhone and can post and add my name from there. I think something glitched when I did the upgrade on the iPad and I sure don't want to hang at the Apple store this weekend!!
Kate said, "Standing in the aisle, picking out the 1 & the 2 candles for Mady and Caras cake. As I reached for them I almost burst in2 tears!"

Dmasy, snap out of it, LOLOLOL!!
This is a woman who tweeted she stuffed 1000 easter eggs...(turns out it was hired out)..
her tweeting is all lies, all the time.
I bet she put the party supplies on the helper's grocery list. If Kate bought them herself, there would be a pic!
Maggie mentioned up thread something along the lines of, “ugh, Kate gets more attention, why can’t she go away.” Totally my paraphrasing, but that’s basically the gist of what she and a lot of other commenters are saying.
In a lot of ways, I totally agree. She’s a disgusting human being and the fact that media outlets continue to consider her a draw makes me sick to my stomach. I can understand their stance given her power to polarize any audience, but it’s still nauseating.
However…. Now that all of this new evidence about her abuse has come out, I’d like her to stick around long enough to see her get her ass handed to her through negative attention. If for no other reason than to ensure those kids get the protection they need and she’s forced to get treatment for her bipolar/personality disorder issues. She can’t look beyond her own narcissistic need for attention? Fine. Let’s let Karma take her pathological arrogance and turn it into something positive.
Also, Kiwi – you don’t know me and I hope this doesn't sound creepy, but I just want to give you a huge hug and a glass of wine. The fact that you can find humor during such a difficult time speaks volumes about your strength and character. Without knowing you, I feel confident that this attitude has and will continue to help you keep your head above water. I guess I just want you to know that some random internet person was moved by your words.
Kate is a twit and Dmsay, thank you and yes I'm glad I'm ok. A few more inches and that might not have been the case.
WWHL is a light-hearted (most of the time) look at pop culture. Andy might ask some questions along the lines of Katie Couric but he won't be grilling her, even if personally doesn't like her. He has to have a high professional tolerance for bs to be able to deal with all of the housewives all of the time. It's a quirky kind of show and not exactly up Kate's alley so we'll see how she does. I'm sure she'll find some way to mess it up. I can't believe that after all of the interviews she's done and all of the training that she's had, she still interviews so poorly. The same regurgitated lies and fake emotion. Even when she tries to be pleasant and joking, she's usually the only one laughing. She really does have a bad energy about her.
Thanks for all the concern, y'all. I'm fine. Sore and sitting gingerly, but nothing a couple of tylenol and a rumspringa or two won't take care of.
Tweet-le -- So sorry to hear about your car! I know what you mean. I live in the country too. You can't even get a loaf of bread without having to get behind the wheel. I'm glad you're okay, though. Cars can be replaced. People can't.
Formerly -- Glad you got your car back finally. Did you ever get things taken care of with the insurance company and that idiot other driver?
I meant to comment earlier on Robert's bombshell about KK's abortion. I'm sorry if her father forced her to have it against her wishes. No one should be forced to have one if they don't want it. I'm sort of on the fence about Robert reporting such personal information. I hate that he felt he needed to, but I can also understand why he did. Given KK's disingenuous statements about having a feeling she wouldn't be able to get pregnant, etc., the information is relevant.

Kate got a little lucky yesterday. Obviously Katie C. had not had a chance to read The Book (she said it was reported to be libelous and had been removed from the shelves) so she was just going on scant information someone had given her. I doubt she would have had the time in her busy schedule to sit down and read it herself.
Had she read the book I think the interview would have been much different.
Kate's just hanging on by a thread. Once this book gets out there again she's toast.

Can I ask if there is a recipe for Rumspringa? It is rum and spring water or is it called that because it puts a spring in your step???

-----------------
Do you think she'll get the negative attention? Other than on a few blogs and on her Twitter feed, I'm not seeing major negative attention. And now that The Book isn't available, I'm concerned it will fade from view and from legit media sources. Even here, the one blog that was seriously into discussing it, we've gone back to snarking on her appearance and getting side-tracked on whether we'd permit our child to attend a party in her house. Her reptilian skin is made of Teflon, I swear.
Oops, that should be "I love a little late night snicker-fest".
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I do, too, but actually prefer Junior Mints at night! It's interesting that the word for "laugh at at the expense of someone else" is "snigger," but somehow in urban slang it became "snicker."
"Kiwi #72 - So glad you are feeling better! Rachel calls me all the time, too! Do you ever get the call with the boat horn blaring saying you have won a cruise? That one annoys me more that Rachel because it comes on my cell phone (which is my emergency Batphone for my kiddos to get in touch with me - I don't use it for chatty calls). First it scares me ("oh, no, is something wrong??"), then it pisses me off."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
National Do Not Call Registry. When they call, you report it, and you get a check in the mail, and the amount depends upon how many people get the same call from that company. It works. I tried it!
Jane, in fairness I think we did talk a fair amount about the child abuse here, not sure there is much else we can say about it, although there was also in my opinion way too much concern about how Robert got the harddrives, passwords, whether Jon gave them to him that did distract from the main issue of CHILD ABUSE.....I don't get it, WHAT DOES IT MATTER?
I'm having problems with my iPad ! Can't use my user name only Anonymous, hate it!
Why is this situation a win-win?? Let me see, Kate has/does physically abuse her children, treats her dog horribly( dog abuse?), scams people and companies, etc.
She will continue to do all of the above plus line her pockets with more money and continue to feed her hunger for fame!!
Am I the only one who refuses to reward bad behavior!! Maybe I still have a teacher attitude about that!
I still hope she's not getting a show on Bravo! Andy Cohen is the one who put those housewive shows on!
Reader lady I'm so glad you didn't get seriously hurt! I fell years ago in my classroom and broke several bones and because of that I have severe arthritis!
( Let's throw tomatoes)
I don't think she's reporting anything to her fans. I think her twitter is just what she thinks will make her look good, not anything that's true. Everything she puts out there is a lie.
I think she thinks it makes her look like a good mother to claim/lie that she is crying over all their little milestones. Don't get me wrong many mothers choke up over their kids but she claims to do it all the time. She never seems happy about a birthday. 12 is a great year, a great age, but you would never know it from Kate.
I think it makes her look unstable. Contrast this with birthday blogs from the Pioneer Woman, who is always so excited to see her babies getting one year older. It's a positive thing for her, she doesn't go around boo hooing wishing they were still chubby toddlers.
Thanks Tweet...body shop just called and my car is ready...they are on their way here now to pick me up. It only took 4 days--I'm amazed. Your car was totalled but you are okay? Thank gawd!
They saved me $90, so now I only have to pay $410 for my deductible instead of $500 for something that wasn't even my fault. So irritating.

One of the best questions to come out of the book, after citing Steve Neild's very impressive resumé, providing protection for presidents and royalty: how do you go from a resumé like that to following Kate Gosselin around carrying her shopping bags?

Skeeve Pinkerton does not have an impressive cv. He has a very carefully worded cv.

I am off to the grocery store as my 13 helpers all called in today with something called 'blue flu'.... hmmmm... is that where they puke blue? Glad I am too perfect to catch it.

Yes, we did discuss child abuse and I hope will continue to do so. Kudos to you, Admin, for weathering the storms on this blog! Like someone (I think TLC Stinks) posted last night it's just so damn frustrating. The proof is clear that she harmed her children and it's doubtful she's stopped. While the abuse may now be emotional rather than physical, it's still abuse and she's still getting tv shows and she's still not being called out by major media outlets.
Yeah, I feel testy over this and have felt this way since finishing the book. Cranky and snappish LOL! We read her journals, we read HER WORDS. I'm going to a fantastic craft fair at Lincoln Center in NYC tomorrow and maybe that'll clear my head.
TLC Stinks@154 said I don't think it's a good idea to give her any attention by submitting questions or emailing. Just let her sink or swim. Bravo is not worth it.
I have to disagree. I think the more questions that go in the betterr the chance of one of them being asked. I watch WWHL on a regular basis and enjoy the show. Bravo is the home of the RHO shows so maybe they're actually looking at giving Kate her coveted dating show. In a way I wish someone would so that it too could fail. Who would Kate be able to blame that on?
OK, I just read what I typed about her getting a show and slapped myself. I really just want her to go away. She's an abusive person plain and simple and
doesn't deserve to profit from that. If she's sitting on tons of money, fine. Enjoy it and flit around to all your races, etc. In the end when your kids have left you'll know that all you have left are paid friends and when the money is gone so are they.
Oh yes the horn - the cruise scam ship's horn. DH got THAT call...annoyed him so much he stayed on the line (or pressed whatever number) until a human voice came on the line. He picked up his bugle (he has two, one sitting on his desk...don't ask) and blew an extremely loud, horrible, note nowhere known to man, into the receiver. Oddly, we have never received THAT particular scam call again. I think they moved on to our fax machine...
Oh yes Joy, the 1980's era heirloom faux ultra suede brown Lazy-Boy recliner is very much present and ready on the launch pad. BTW, any tips/hints on getting rocket fuel stench out of ultra-suede? Febreze is failing me here.
Since Kate isn't doing the cooking thing lately (no Menu Mondays, no recent stupid twit pics of what appears to be digested dog food) I thought I'd ask some of the chefs here a question - if one is cutting up a jalapeno pepper and the darn thing squirts into one's eye despite glasses (how does that even happen?) other than the stamp dance around the kitchen, how can one reduce the sensation of cigarette burn directly on the retina? Cold water splash seemed to make it worse. Other than never slicing up a jalapeno again, what should one do? (the eggplant-tofu stir fry actually turned out well. Very tasty. Just couldn't see it_.
I blame ambien. I always blame ambien. I don't HAVE ambien, but I blame it anyway.
Do you think she'll get the negative attention? Other than on a few blogs and on her Twitter feed, I'm not seeing major negative attention.

Don't know if this is any indication of the interest in the story, but
Books & Review, Cole Garner Hill, has written an article on Robert's book...and it's not even officially published yet.
Kate Gosselin: 'Reality Show Didn't Cause Divorce,' Tell All Book, 'How She Fooled the World', Tearing Her Apart

readerlday: gla youare up and ok. Youll be sore for a while :(
Thanks, I did get the car just now and was going to do errands but I got nervous? despite driving, well, for decades, no accidents. I kept thinking I would have another one right away! I'll go out later though.
I have not had resolution from the other insurance co. They claim the other co. had not replied to their queries, and my claim rep has quit! I have a new one and suggested she contact the other co. everyday. She said every other week, although they have 30--60 days to get a decision. I was told by my dealer to go to the Insurance Regulatory Board if no satisfaction. Meanwhile I paid about $4000 of damage ( but was reimbursed) plus my $500 deductible ( not YET reimbursed) As the clock ticks it gets very annoying.I want it settled in my favor plus the deductible.
Certainly agree no one injured in my accident and Tweet-le's and JudyK's is a huge blessing.
Sorry but I'm going to be very busy this weekend so I'm going to comment like crazy today!
Jane, I agree 100% with you. I think that the media has decided to ignore the bad parts of the book or completely ignore it! Everybody reported her runway experience with " the smoking hot Kate Gosselin on the runway" and I also think Kate's enablers come in here to change the conversation ! What if the book disappears and she continues on her happy child abusing ways!! What a great injustice that would be!!!
Kate probably cried because her kids are getting older and that means she's getting older. She probably thinks that if she was 10 years younger she would be hosting ET after Mary Hart retired! After all she's been told " she's smoking hot".
I guess I'm angry that Kate is finally exposed and it just gets swept under the rug!!!
Couldn’t find a link to her e mail, but perhaps she can help determine whether Shoka is ok?
