Kate with swap places with Kendra Wilkinson, tonight at 8 EST on ABC. Also this morning, Kate will be a guest on The View.
1256 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 1256 Newer› Newest»I believe I have mentioned I have to wash my hair today. All day.
From the Celebdirtylaundry article, now this is what i call I accurate:
Honestly, I am seriously sick and disgusted by Kate. She seemed to be on the right track, but has somehow gone careening out of control down a raging river of small screen prostitution.
Except for that part about being on the right track, I don't think you can say she was on the right track ever, she was always biding her time until she could exploit the kids again.
From last thread...Tucker's Mom said "down the shore"
Thanks for the laugh. And yup, that's where I'm from! Born and raised about 5 block from the beach.
This trip to NYC at least gives Stevie some more income. It would appear he hasn't exactly been raking it in from her lately. Hope his security business is still going strong. lol
And I agree with Jane's comment in the previous post that Kate more than likely went to NYC yesterday and spent the night. Wouldn't she have had to visit Jason for a touch up before this gig?
Ok, I got an error message when trying to post previously, so here I go again.
I have nothing nice to say about Kendra. To me, she is just one of many d-listers who have jumped on the reality show bandwagon and is exploiting her child. Don't be surprised if Kim Kardashian does the same after her baby's birth. Too bad there are TV exec's (men??) who continue to pay salaries and perks to these nasty women.
"Down a raging river of small screen prostitution"
Well if that doesn't just sum it up perfectly.
Admin, I'm bringing this from the other thread. I hope it's ok.
mbg hacker sells tweets...I googled this because I remembered that the other day, when the hacker fiasco happened, I read an offer from Kates mbg hacker to buy tweets. I googled the above just now and found this article. It was an awe ha moment for me and made so much sense when I read the post about twitter bots. An interesting article. It's more about some loosing money from twitter bot scams but is proof that they take place.
I say that this is true what Twitterbot...14 posted and it explains a lot. whether or not Kate paid for it or someone else is not sure but I believe it totally took place.

Kate is a Twit can you post again with just the important points from the article and not the entire thing? I know it's a newer-ish request that may take some getting used to but please do not post entire articles especially long ones. It's a copyright problem I'm not interested in playing Russian roulette with.
Copying and pasting key points are fine. There are rare times when an entire article is necessary to make the point. Globe Gate was one of the few.
I have nothing nice to say about Kendra.
&&&
I have nothing nice to say about her either I just want to be accurate when I'm not saying nice things. :) I guess the only semi-nice thing I could say is at least she ADMITS she exploits her child. I think that's step one of recovery. 99 more to go.

But she's still exploiting him, isn't she? At least she did back in October. If you keep doing it over and over again, even though you admit it, how is that a step on the road to recovery?
Admin-I understand. I'll just post the parts I bolded in my original post.

Another article at celebritydirtylaundy telling it like it is. Apparently, Sphinx Kat has had a complete turnaround when it comes to Kate.
http://www.celebdirtylaundry.com/2013/kate-gosselin-hates-fans-celebrity-wife-swap-twitter-0226/
A few excerpts:
"But, in truly clueless form, Kate is pushing on, insisting that she won’t listen to her critics! I can understand blocking out haters, but is it so wrong to wonder aloud (or through this blog) whether the fame whore move will be healthy for her kids? Kate shared her new saying on Twitter: “I don’t care what you think about me. I don’t think about you at all.”
"It’s a Coco Chanel quote, but we think Kate is being a little to free with it! The woman has made a fortune by making people care about her—for better or for worse, every day we make the decision whether or not to read her blog, follow her Twitter, read her book, and watch her TV show. As far as her income and ratings go, she should be caring about us—a lot! Honestly, I am seriously sick and disgusted by Kate. She seemed to be on the right track, but has somehow gone careening out of control down a raging river of small screen prostitution."
I say that this is true what Twitterbot...14 posted and it explains a lot. whether or not Kate paid for it or someone else is not sure but I believe it totally took place.
-----------------
I checked Twitter last night, and found that the key word to generate the tweets is "excited." I'd bet my bottom dollar that these are Twitterbots...the wording is so similar, and they all contain "excited," or "so excited." These are from accounts that never showed up there before and most likely never will again, unless more are paid to tweet after the show about how amazing Kate was and that she needs to get her own show.
Kate sent a pic to Twitter of getting her hair/makeup done pre-show. Deanna isn't the one doing her makeup.
I just came home from doing errands, and turned on the t.v. to the Dr. Oz show.
Tonight, I have 2 1/2 hr Aerobics classes (walk aerobics, body sculpting, and boot camp aerobics.
More fun than wasting my time, watching one night of that Wife Swap crap with Monster-Kate.
Entertainment schmentertainment!
I'm not watching the view but I'm following tweets regarding @theviewtv. It's 11:40 and she hasn't made her appearance yet. First was the guy from Modern Family. Guess she won't be getting much airtime.
Watching the View and noticing that Whoopi is not saying a word. Brooke asked her is she had to get Jon's permission and she said that it was a decision made by her and the kids. Same old stuff. Sherri did mention that the kids want her to date again. Really, who besides her 6 fans, believes this garbage??
Ha! Exactly as I expected! Whoopi sat there and said nothing the entire time! Sherri did almost the whole interview and of course asked about dating-as usual. Brooke asked if Jon gave permission and Khate said only "she" and the kids were involved in the decision. Joy kept bringing up how easy it must have been for Khate. In the clip they showed, Kendra's manifesto said she had a nanny and housekeeper but Khate did not admit that "she" had that help. Khate said "she" likes to play all those roles! Also, Khate's manifesto said the kids come down at 6:03 and Kendra commented on how exact that was. The segment was only about 5 minutes and I stopped counting the ums. Khate looked slutty in my opinion and Brooke wasn't sure if she should give Khate a hug- it was very awkward! Khate saying "she" is learning to be more relaxed is bull!
I must really be out of it, but I've only ever heard of three DWTS contestants. Didn't they announce, after Kate's season, that they weren't going to feature the un-knowns, but were going for "big" names? Guess that idea fell apart...
"It’s a Coco Chanel quote, but we think Kate is being a little to free with it! The woman has made a fortune by making people care about her....As far as her income and ratings go, she should be caring about us—a lot! Honestly, I am seriously sick and disgusted by Kate. She seemed to be on the right track, but has somehow gone careening out of control down a raging river of small screen prostitution. Do you think it’s time for Kate to retire to raise her children, or is this forced exploitation what’s really best for her family?
(from the celeb laundry post
There are 2 points made in the article:
1) Kate is on the road to tv prostitution
2) she has a lot of nerve broadcasting the Chanel quote when she makes her living off of consumers of her public activities. At least, that's what I read into it.
Maybe Whoopie will remind Kate about the time Jon had to have the police called because one of Jon's girlfriend's ( the teacher?) was at the house with the kids.
Kate was at it again. Showing her disdain for Jon. When asked by Brooke Shields if she had to get Jon's approval for CWS she said 'No, was a decision that the kids and I made." And she wonders why she is so reviled.
Saw Kate on the View. Still says "umm" a lot. She had on the shortest dress ever. Was almost up to her waist when she sat down. Also very tight, so the girls were like two topedos out front. Lots of "talking" with her french manicured hands. That show tonight will be so scripted. They showed a clip and Kate's talking was so stilted. It was like she was saying memorized lines. It was also laughable because Kendra has a nanny and housekeeper come in daily and Kate says---I don't like that. I like to be the nanny and housekeeper myself. Since when??! Won't be watching tonight. Of course, she ended the View appearance saying her kids loved every minute and she only asked for her kids' approval to be on the show (not Jon's) and the kids said they still liked it better at home when Kate was there and not Kendra. Yeah, right.
Well just as many of us suspected. Jon was not involved in this decision. Sad but at least she exonerated him.
I watched Kate's appearance on the View. Whoopi did not say a word. Brooke did ask her if Jon had to okay the kids being on the show, but Kate glossed over that question(although she shook her head "No") by saying that she felt it was a decision that she and her kids had to make together, because they were the ones involved in the show. She also said the kids gave it a big thumbs up.
In one of the preview clips, while she was reading Kendra's manual, Kate says "I want to be mommy, nanny and housekeeper. I like it like that". So if she likes it so much, why does she complain about it and let everyone know how exhausted she is all the time?
I think Kate was at the View this morning because she tweeted a live tweet from the make-up chair. Good news was the interview was only 5 minutes long. And no, she was not on the panel of judges.
It pisses me off how Kate is pretending she doesn't have any help.I bet she has a part-time assistant (grocery shopping), p/t babysitter, and p/t cleaning lady (maybe she just now dropped the cleaning lady) and probably a p/t laundry person. It is so misleading.
I so wish that the tweet Kate made about how it works out best for her family for her to be at home a week and then gone a week. She tweeted probably about a year or so ago. And as Kate stated in her People interview many years ago that she was gone over 20+ days in May while promoting her book (when Jon was at home). We all know that Kate spends a lot of time away from home. She is misleading the general public to state that she doesn't have a full-time nanny or housekeeper.

First, I wonder who took the picture of Kate? Amazing what makeup can do. Be sure to find those pictures of her without makeup at the tanning salon. Yuck!
Second, today's new Celebrity Dirty Laundry post is bad for our dear ol' Kate. Moms will not approve of a sex starlet with those kids. The publicity will be scathing and The Stir will hear about it, if not already.
And I call BS that she discussed anything with the kids. According to Robert, and I totally believe him, the kids had no idea about the swap. I wonder who the insider was that tipped him off about the show and the kids? It certainly could not have been Deanna. Makes me think there was someone else at the house while all this was filmed. I hope Robert clues us in when his book comes out.
Jon must be mortified his kids were exposed to this show. Yeah, the producers had Kendra looking like a normal mom and Kate looking like the slut, but all someone has to do is Google Kendra and it all comes out just who she is and what she has done. So embarrassing for the kids, particularly Cara and Mady.
She was back to wearing the micro-mini dress. The "mom" look she had on Katie Couric apparently went out the window.
According to her after-show tweets, she's off to do interviews with Extra, Insider, etc.
Enjoy it, Kate! You're still circling the drain.
Oh Noooooo!
Tweet from Kate:
Was so gr8 to see the ladies of The View today!! Now on to do Extra, Inside Edition, Insider ET, Extra, and so on.....
I don't have anything nice to say about Kate, either. Her hair looks like a wig. All the money in the world will not fix ugly on that woman. She is so skinny that her skin is hanging loose. Not pretty. Sad to hear that Jon has no say in how, when, or where the 8 money makers are filmed. Someone at ABC just loves Kate, or the fact that she has tried to dupe the entire world. There is a lot we do not know or understand. Kendra is still more tolerable than Kate, and much younger. Looking forward to Admin's recap of tonight's show. Will certainly not be watching.
Tweets comment on how much plastic surgery she has had. Doesn't look like the same person. She looked slutty in a very short dress.
I do not understand Jon's role in all of this. Was he even consulted? Does he have any rights? I don't get how underage children can make these kinds of decisions. Kate is a liar.
PatK-compared to what the other ladies were wearing, Kate really looked out of place. Thigh-high skirt and low cut neckline isn't really appropriate for a daytime show, IMO.
They also showed clips of Kate by the pool. So I guess they'll show Kate in a bikini tonight.
The show will just have Kate taking it easy and relaxing, while it will show Kendra being busy, busy, busy.
Kate tweeted about all these interviews she's doing. Will she make it home on time to watch the show with her kids as she tweeted she would be doing?
But wait-Brooke mentioned that she had seen the show already--so most likely Kate and the kids have also-so was Kate's tweet a LIE? She'll probably stay over in NYC, and pretend she's watching it, or not tweet at all.
To Ex Nurse (#16): Yes. I forgot about the "Jon's girlfriend thing" when Khate was pi$$ed that the girlfriend was at the house when the kids were there. Hypocrite much, Khate? You have a whore/slut/promiscuous ex-Hugh Hefner girlfriend at the house with the kids. Hey Khate, have LOTS of fun on Extra, ET, the Insider, blah, blah, blah. It is not going to do you ANY good. You are circling the drain fast: GURGLE, GURGLE, GLUG, GLUG...
Sherri did mention that the kids want her to date again. Really, who besides her 6 fans, believes this garbage??
* * * *
Ugh - can't stand Sherri, and she always is first in line to back up the "my ex is a deadbeat" story line.
So...if the decision to do CWS was legitimately made by Kate and the kids, why the need to hide it from Jon?
If all was above board, why the secrecy? Huh, Kate?
In one of the preview clips, while she was reading Kendra's manual, Kate says "I want to be mommy, nanny and housekeeper. I like it like that". So if she likes it so much, why does she complain about it and let everyone know how exhausted she is all the time?
She has to try to maintain an image, HA, and the one she's chosen for now is that of a hands-on mom. Those who don't follow her and believe her BS don't know she has someone clean the house (or did until recently), help the kids with their homework daily, and help with the laundry. She's a fake and a liar.
@31...
It's probably just me, but I don't think that calling someone a whore and a slut speaks well for this blog. I would like to believe that the posters here are above that -- it reminds me of some of the "haters" on Twitter,
I am glad that they asked about Jon. It put that question to rest. And what could he do about it after the fact? Boy she keeps me on my knees asking forgiveness for how I feel about her. Then why do I watch? Temptation. Folks, that's just for me and my own convictions. Not yours. Please don't attack me. Thanks.
Tweet from Kate:

*******************
She's just in all of her glory -- happy, happy, happy, I'm famous mode, isn't she? Look at me! I'm a star!
She admits in her lastest blog:
A month or so ago, I lost my long standing part-time cleaning lady to a full-time office job!...
...This is the first time, since my littles were small, that I've been without someone to clean my house thoroughly each week...
...Following her departure, I made a mental note to get busy looking for a replacement, as soon as time allowed....
A comment on The Stir:
Did you catch in that videoclip she says, "I "OVERSEE" errands, laundry, grocery shopping..." NOT I DO all of the errands, laundry, grocery shopping. That's a roundabout way of saying she has helpers and doesn't do that stuff herself. I wonder if Kendra had access to the helpers or REALLY did it all herself.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
This is the first time I went over to The Stir to read the comments. I gotta say, 95% are negative and the ladies are insulted by Kate's stupid blogs. It's only going to get worse after tonight. I won't be watching, but will read the recap.
Oh my word. I am laughing so hard right now. I just went over to The View's website. Last week was Reality Star Co-Host week. Guess who was NOT invited to share their "gift of gab"!
Winter Wonderland, you are entitled to your opinion; but I think this blog is doing just fine with posters who express themselves a little differently. It's a nice mix as opposed to one extreme or the other.
I don't see any harm being done.
I know it may not be popular as some have strong feelings about Kendra's lifestyle but if I had to choose between leaving my kids with KT or Kendra, I would pick Kendra every time. I would not leave my husband alone with her, either. She has no problem going after someone else's man and befriending the wife the entire time. I didn't get to watch all of that, but what part I did see she looked like an alien, something from another planet. Her eyes are just wasted and that was her best asset. Lying about a nanny, she had one for years plus a string of what then became known as baby sitters, and now a homework person, a laundry "girl," a part-time housekeeper that just left (guess the full time one is still there - a play on words). With that short dress she looked like anything but a single mom with 8 kids doing it all alone. She has those dresses hemmed. No one would make one that short - they get blasted for that on Project Runway. Wanna go home - make a dress that is too short. Even they have their limits. She makes me sick. I read on twitter I think that Whoopi never said a word while she was out there. Whoopi refuses to sell out like the rest of those suck-ups.
Saw Kate on the view she looks nice appearance and all.
She back on the "kids want me to date" horse.
She said the kids were all excited to do the mom swap thing.
And she didn't have to or need to ask Jon permission for the kids to do on the show.
Kate didn't throw Jon under the bus this time maybe she changing"(yeah right).
She's just in all of her glory -- happy, happy, happy, I'm famous mode, isn't she? Look at me! I'm a star!
*********************
That's probably exactly how she's thinking. Telling her fans that's she doing all these interviews is her way of saying "See-they didn't forget me, they want me!"
When in reality, the only reason she is doing these shows is because ABC wants her to, in order to promote the show. It's all arranged by the network, not because these shows are clamoring for Kate to give them interviews. It's called PR, Kate.
Ya know? The fans don't realize that that statement about not thinking about you, it goes both ways. It doesn't say exclusive to non fans.
Khate just wrote an article herself for her mommy column and she said that she has a housekeeper etc. SHE SAID IT HERSELF. So it makes zero sense that her manual was all about her doing it alone lol. It is hilarious to me how clueless she can be. If she has 'people' she doesn't pay them enough to keep her 'story lines' straight.

====
Did it cross her mind that it's not because SHE's there, it's because the cameras aren't there anymore when she's home.
Notice how Kate doesn't allow her kids to be interviewed on tv. You'd think she would because after all, they were the ones that had to put up with another boatload of strangers in their house for a week. I guess she's only willing to exploit them on film. Is she afraid some of them might spontaneously blurt out the truth again the way Mady did on the No-Water-gate interview when she said "I like Daddy better"?
Kate looked red to me or maybe she was over tanned.
Did she look that way to anyone else or is it just me?
The show will just have Kate taking it easy and relaxing, while it will show Kendra being busy, busy, busy.
===============\
And say how she doesn't time to lay by the pool.
Winter Wonderland (#35): *That is what she IS.* If Administrator wants us to cease and desist using these terms, even though I think they are accurate, I for one, will. We are guests on Administrator's blog and I will respect her wishes. But again, *That is what she IS*.
She has those dresses hemmed. No one would make one that short - they get blasted for that on Project Runway. Wanna go home - make a dress that is too short. Even they have their limits.

I used to be a big PR fan, and Michael Kors would always note issues as they related to taste and class. He'd call those uber short dresses "vulgar".
I forget who said "dress like a woman, but still be a lady".
If a designer had taste issues, there was generally little hope for them. You just can't train someone to have that perfect balance of style and avant-garde, without going hoochie coochie.
The only thing Khate like$ about "mothering" is the complete, total and utter control she has over those kids.
I wonder why ABC didn't set Kendra up to promote the show in the same way.

&&&&&&&
Maybe Kendra will be covering the CA based entertainment shows?
D-list coverage and promotion coast to coast.
Pity Party said... 53
I wonder why ABC didn't set Kendra up to promote the show in the same way.
Probably because Kendra is in CA and the shows kate is doing are in NY.
Pity Party-Maybe ABC plans to use Kendra more to promote their new show "Splash" instead. Being that "Splash" starts in 3 weeks, perhaps they felt that should be the priority when using Kendra for promotion.
Also, with Kendra on the west coast and Kate on the east coast, I would think it would be difficult for them to do an interview together.
Kendra did do radio interviews yesterday and is doing some today. Perhaps, she just wasn't available since she is working on "Splash".
Kate, we know, is available anytime, anywhere, even though she has 8, count em, 8 kids.
You know the funny thing is that after tonight Kate will be back to being "mediocre."
I had planned on watching tonight but after seeing K on the View, I realize there is no freaking way I'm wasting an hour of my life to watch her be pampered by Hank Sr.
Thank goodness Hank Jr. Has a nanny. I'm sure this nanny doesn't throw him in his crib by his hair.
I wonder if Kate flirted with Jessie in the green room.
DWTS has Andy Dick? Hope he's sober, the guy is a (funny) lunatic and they film live!
This has to be the funniest tweet from one of Kate's rabid fans. And no, it wasn't Milo or the Milo wannabe.
xxxxx
@taylorswift13 If you get a chance tonight watch your friend Kate Gosselin & Kendra Wilkinson on Celebrity Wife Swap tonight on ABC. ♥♥♥
Winter Wonderland (#35): *That is what she IS.*
********************
That's not my point, though. She may very well be, but who are we to make the judgment call and trash her by calling her a name that denigrates women? It's done on Twitter all the time, and it's really disrespectful and just plain nasty. Personally, I don't like to read it on Twitter and I don't like to see it here. I'm not a prude by any means, and although I never would have left my kids with her, saying "she's a whore" or "she's a slut" just really is disparaging.
I didn't watch the View, but have a couple questions for all the sharp-eyed ladies on this blog.
How did they introduce Katie Irene? Spontaneous applause from the audience or canned? Did she walk out giving that little wave she does? Did the camera ever pan over to Whoopie as Katie Irene was talking? Any shots of the audience as Katie Irene was talking? Facial expressions, body language from Katie Irene, Whoopi, the audience?
Sorry for all the questions:) I'm snowed in in the KC area and working from home. Strange thing though, I did get a call from a PA number this morning, but no one talked when I answered and said hello.
Bonnie Fuller, Hollywood Life, has an article about Kate's alleged plastic surgery. She keeps it up, she'll look like Sally Jessy...
Ugh. She DOES look like she had a facelift, especially along the jaw lines and her eyes are getting that Joan Rivers look. I'm sure that's why she took 6 weeks off from running.
http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/02/26/kate-gosselin-plastic-surgery-pics-facelift-nose-job/
@Susantoyota- First off- my mom was born and raised in KC- love the Plaza and it's so pretty there. Now, to answer your questions to the best of my memory and being interrupted. (It will be online tomorrow too). They did a basic introduction about CWS. I think they showed the clip and then Khate walked out- and to me- "she" seemed a little unsure about "herself" (probably thinking how to greet each host-lol). Some in the audience (and it wasn't rousing) were standing but not all of them (I personally hate when reality people get standing o's- that should be reserved for legends IMO). Khate's dress was short and low cut and I thought the top of "her" was bouncing as "she" clunked in. When Khate got to Brooke, Brooke didn't know if she should hug Khate or not. She kinda gave Khate an awkward look. Sherri did most of the talking- as expected. Whoopi was just on the end and really didn't acknowledge Khate at all! They didn't show the audience and it seemed like the studio was a little quiet while Khate was speaking. I would have loved to have seen the audience cuz you know most of them had looks of disgust! Khate was boring as hell and was trying to convince the audience that "she" had learned something (not buying it) but that was after Brooke said she saw the show and the bottom line was to show what the moms could learn from each other. Sherri asked about the show being called Wife Swap and that Khate was not a wife. Khate said "I know and I was surprised when they asked me" (yeah right). They wanted to change it up a bit. Brooke was the one who asked about Jon and after Khate said he wasn't involved- no one bothered to follow-up with that- probably because no one really cared. This was just a courtesy promotion for the network and I felt like they just wanted Khate out as soon as possible because they really didn't get into a deep conversation and between Sherri, Brook, and Joy and showing the clip- there really wasn't much time. Joy just kept saying how easy it was for Khate and Khate was saying "she" wished Hank could be cloned (as if!). Khate ended it with saying something like they liked Khate's way better (yeah right) Hope this helps!
I have a feeling it's not over for Kate after tonight. Someone filmed her and her kids during their "FUN FUN FUN" family winter break. Kate was way too quiet about it. The sheep were asking questions about where she went, etc. and she did not answer. Unfortunately something else is coming.
Kate is going to revel in any spotligt good or bad for as long as she can because nothing else matters to her. Not her friends, her family's well-being nor what people think of her. She just does not care. It's her world and as long as she can milk some poor loser for her own personal benifit, reality show of any kind she's good.
I have said it before and I still stand by it: the more you try to balance a life you want versus the one you actually have the harder you'll fall. She's on here pedistall and she's happy it won't occur to her that someone will maybe kick it out from under her one day.
I say this from a personal standpoint in my life: if you've got nothing to lose or hide than keep your head up regardless of how other's make you look. Kate? She's one of those if she's got stuff to hide she'll backtrack till the cows come home.
Her wife swap is just a means to an end really. People have pleaded with her to get a real life. But she's just too lazy. This new one time gig is just her pathetic way to stretch what can't be stretched anymore, her "career."
I used to draw parrallels between Kate and my own mother, the only difference is, Kate's mistakes and pushing her kids out there are caught and documented. People can see things. I pitty her kids who have to cope with the things that are unseen. Just because her life is splashed across the web 24/7 doesn't alaways make it correct.
People see Kat for what she is and what they see is what they judge because that's all they can see--what's in front of there screen. Kate's still going to crash and burn and she'll have nobody to pick her up.
That's why friends are important regardless of what type. She doesn't have any. Friends are those who pick you up and look at your regardless what the world says and know you are who you are. Kate? Her friends dropped her long time ago, so ergo all she has is this reality gig to keep stretching.
I don't pity her, I don't like her nor have I ever respected her.

How did they introduce Katie Irene?
++++++++++++
They introduce as reality star mom of 8 kids Kate Gosselin.
Or something lame like that.
She looked orange to me - I'm not a big fan of someone being overly tanned.
I usually watch The View every morning - this was nothing special. Same old, same old when someone is there promoting something.
She looks skinny, but her dress looked cheap in my opinion. It looked like that stretchy lace material.
ALOT of ummms.....
I DO think she threw Jon under the bus. By saying it was her, and the kids' decision, makes it seem like the father is insignificant. This is not a "where do we go for dinner" decision - this DOES affect them in many ways. THEY WERE WORKING! He has every right to decide yea or nay regarding that.
I'm kind of over it/her. If I happen to be up when its on (at 11:07pm in my area - ooooooh, so Prime Time Kate!), I'll probably watch it. If not, I look forward to Admin's recap.
Something weird about the jaw/cheek line. Lower cheeks, along the jaw line, look far thinner.
Outline of the eyes look different, too. More cat eye shape now.
When I saw her today on The View, I immediately thought nose-job. I'm off to read the article at hollywoodlife.
To Winter Wonderland (#59): TOO. BAD. Kendra did it to her$elf. Kendra masterminded her slutty career path. That. Is What. She. Is. She is not Princess Kate (Katherine) of England. If she does not want to be referred to as a slut, or a whore, then maybe she should not do things with her CAREER that are slutty and whore-ish. It. Is. What. It. Is.
I didn't see any difference in those photos of Kate regarding the plastic surgery. Maybe it's just me. lol
Oh yeah, Kate is a whore.
A Fame Whore.
The worst kind.
If you really think about it logically saying you don't care what people think diminishes the positive feedback Kate gets from fans. It makes it meaningless if you just march to your own drum anyway. It makes it trite, like Kate wouldn't care two hoots about what they said if they ever said anything else. She doesn't value their thoughts good or bad.

But at least she had one shining moment again, after a year and a half, to bask in celebrity-ism, be catered to hand and foot and had bragging rights to appearing on all of the entertainment shows. That "fix" will have to last her until her cookbook comes out and she can make the rounds again.

Ugh. She DOES look like she had a facelift, especially along the jaw lines and her eyes are getting that Joan Rivers look. I'm sure that's why she took 6 weeks off from running.

She at least had a unique prettiness before she had all these alterations done. Now she has that generic Hollywood mold appearance. She looks like she rolled off the assembly line at a doll factory with the same face as a thousand others.
wondering why CWS showed the gosselin kids in their bedrooms on the short clip? Thought Kate said "no" to bedroom showing when doing he cancelled show!

''When asked by Brooke Shields if she had to get Jon's approval for CWS she said 'No, was a decision that the kids and I made." And she wonders why she is so reviled.''
~~~~~~~~~
So...she confirmed what I said from the beginning. She forced the children to keep their mouths shut about what they were about to do, especially from Jon. Then, locked behind the gates, it was a done deal with Jon totally unaware what was happening. KK is despicable!
The funny thing is that once again, KK thinks she is saying one thing without the slightest clue what she is revealing. She THINKS she's saying that SHE is the only one with any rights to the kids, when what she has REALLY revealed is that she forced her children to lie and Jon had no idea what she was doing with his children!!

@Kateplusmy8 @ABC Well...just find ur Mr.Right/Mr.Lites Out Man & have another...ur own #LilHank! LOL
Oh, great. Now Milo wants Kate to have another baby. Poor Milo. I bet she's devastated that she can't be the donor. Well, "she" could, if she really is a "he."
And no one followed this up with and don't you think a decision as important as this should have included their father? Sigh.
I did see the View, didn't know she was on, but was surprised how happy she is. Whoopi kissed her and a partial hug. I don't judge by Whoopi and I don't like it when Whoopi snubs anyone and she does that a lot, that is why I don't watch the show. I resented her Kate a bitch when she was on DWTS, no reason for it. She didn't know the women. Whoopi is on a throne, all the movies she made and people kiss her butt, fine, but be decent to people. Joy was. Whoopi's opinion is not unpartial and that is sad for that type of show,
Kate did look good. I don't know about plastic surgery but Joy gets botox injections, so does
Brooke Shield have things done to her face. It is that world that none of us work or live in. I am surprised Kate is on prime time with this show but I think we will see how difficult it is to keep 8 kids on schedule, even with help. Kate strikes me as the final word on every aspect of her children's life. That is something that is good. She makes money on this show and appearing, so what is the hassle about this? Her kids aren't suffering from being on the show. From the excerpts I think it is probably fun for them and it may lead to feeling good about their life and not about gossip, bag gossip about their parents all the time. Hope everyone leaves it alone for once and doesn't put a bad tag on women in general. Say anything you want but don't dare denigrate women. Personally I get tired of hearing the word bitch or no good or a whore, we are talking about 8 children and their mother who is keeping a roof over their heads and it isn't our business what she paid, how she does all of this unless she is stealing or fraudulent use of the money they all earned. Something tells me she is doing a good job when I compare her to Jon Gosselin who can't hold down a job. Yeah she probably won't get another job and we always say that but she always comes back like Spring.

Hi Hannah (comment #76),
I don't think we are denigrating women - just calling it like it is.
And you pretty much denigrated Jon in your last sentence....

Great point Mom!!
Oh she has had some work done this winter, those pictures tell the story. Pretty much lines up with her disappearing act after Xmas and through early January, the no running, etc. I only wonder how she explains this to her children, god the secrets they must be forced to keep under penalty of severeness. And this was done for what, her one day of being seen? She really does think the CWS eppy is going to take her places. Memo to Kate: this was about Kendra, you are being used and tossed, again.

Watching the View and noticing that Whoopi is not saying a word. Brooke asked her is she had to get Jon's permission and she said that it was a decision made by her and the kids.

Yet in one of the clips Mady talks generally about her mom laying down the law and being the one who makes the decisions.

******************************
Wow, judgemental much? Kendra at least knew what she was getting into and was smart enough to do what she did as a career and make a decent living out of it. She did not and has not ever exploited her family or child to get further in the limelight. She has never lied about who she is or what she did. She never has claimed to be a devout Christian and be a hypocrite.
She is still a good person and mother and I would rather see her be with the Gosselin kids and treat them as kids than Kreider who treats them as possessions.
Get off your soapbox and stop being so self-righteous. You think it's any wonder why people are defecting from this blog.
So, according to Kate, Jon had nothing to do with the decision to do CWS. It was hers and the kids decision. I call BS. We all know it was Kate's and only Kate's decision to do this show. The kids were doing it whether they wanted to or not.
Brooke and Joy have not made their careers about being moms. They have never predicated who they are upon their children,nor have they filmed them for years.
Big difference in my book.
Listen, if Kate has the spare coin to do all of these plastic procedures, I say go for it, but two things. Don't complain about how expensive it is to pay for the kids' expenses and for the love of everything holy, stop lying about it!
I just can't respect a liar because it insults my intelligence to hear Kate say that she's de-aging, and that she's wearing a good bra. It defies something as plain as the nose on your face.
What's next? Water isn't wet?
Oh she has had some work done this winter, those pictures tell the story. Pretty much lines up with her disappearing act after Xmas and through early January, the no running, etc.
@@@@@@@@
I didn't watch her on The View. In fact, I really can't stand to watch her at all. Does she still have the turkey neck? That's one area where she really needs help, but somehow she just lets it go. It would seem to me if she's spending so much money on her face, she'd spend some additional money and get that neck taken care of.

''And she didn't have to or need to ask Jon permission for the kids to do on the show.''
~~~~~~
KK saying she didn't discuss doing CWP with Jon, and making the decision herself, does NOT mean that she didn't have to or need Jon's permission. It only means that she did the show without Jon's knowledge. And that she forced Jon's children to keep secrets from their father!
I just can't respect a liar because it insults my intelligence to hear Kate say that she's de-aging, and that she's wearing a good bra
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
She doesn't consider it lying because she IS de-aging...with the help of a plastic surgeon. She IS wearing a good bra, but that's not the reason for the overly-flated girls. She's telling the truth (or so she thinks), but it's truth by omission of facts.
What I can't understand is that she actually thinks people are stupid enough to believe her lies. She looks like a plastic Barbie. Nobody changes that much in eight years if they haven't had surgery. The sheeple believe it, but then again, they'd believe anything, especially if Milo confirms it. She's all-knowing!
Hannah, thank you for your opinion. It's quite different from my own, but I'm glad you felt you could say it here.
For those of you with little kids/who have raised kids or who have an education in child psych, I have to ask, how to 8 year olds process this.
If we are to believe that Kate and Kendra had no idea where they were going, then we're to believe that Kate told the kids the following:
1. I'm leaving to play/be Mommy to other kids for a week
2. I have no idea how far away I'll be
3. I have no idea who is coming to be Mommy here for a week
4. I have never met the new crew that will be filming you all week
Is this how CWS goes down? I mean, think about how scary this would be to 8 year olds, even 12 year olds. It just doesn't sound right and I don't believe for a minute that the kids didn't tell Jon something about it.
I think the kids had to have some concerns and fears, because if they don't, it's not normal.
It's not normal for 8 year olds to just say, "See ya' Mommy. Have fun being other childrens' Mommy for a week!"
Thumbs up!
Agree that Kendra is what she is, not my cup of tea.
However....her claim to fame isn't that she's a "Christian mom".
I'd rather have my kids with Kendra (who hopefully would have enough sense not to talk about her "career" with them) than with Kate who can't stop herself from berating, talking negatively, beating the kids.
Winter Wonderland said... 35
@31...
It's probably just me, but I don't think that calling someone a whore and a slut speaks well for this blog. I would like to believe that the posters here are above that -- it reminds me of some of the "haters" on Twitter,
* * * *
I agree with you WW. I realized long ago that words like "slut" "whore", etc. were designed to humiliate and shame women, most of whom most certainly don't deserve that shaming. Further, the word whore means a woman (or man) who sells sexual favors. While we can quibble over whether Kendra sold herself to Hugh Hefner, the basic truth is that she is not nor has never been an official prostitute. Thus, calling her a whore is inaccurate, not to mention rather coarse.
Obviously, people will use whatever language they wish in describing others. But name-calling is usually an arena of last resort, when one cannot come up with a more rational argument or theory of why a certain person is unlikeable and/or worthy of disrespect.
I am not particularly enamored of Kendra's choice to have a relationship with Hugh Hefner, but there's no law against it, and it seems that they both felt mutually appreciative of each other. He was going to have young girlfriends no matter what, so if an opportunity presented itself to a young Kendra, I can't blame her for taking it. Seems like her life wasn't going too well at that point. As for her desire to stay in the public eye in any way possible - lots of people have that desire. June (Honey Boo Boo's mom) is doing the same thing - anyone here calling her a whore? What about the moms on Dance Moms, or every contestant on Survivor? What about celebs who do DWTS, Splash, Stars on Ice, etc.? They all want to be famous, hope to make big bucks, and yes, they sell themselves to the public.
Anyway, that's my two cents. I can dislike Kendra's actions without calling her trashy names. I would encourage others to try to do the same.

On the last thread, I said that I don't like to use those words but I'm neither the word police nor the thought police, so I won't use those words for women.

I'm thinking of the song Everyday People, and the line ''different strokes for different folks''.
Millicent I agree. I think name calling simplifies the argument when we have an entire arsenal of excellent points we could make against this whole mess. We don't need the name calling, it cheapens the good points we do have and is much easier to discount by the other side. Hit them with the important points and make them counter them. Back them into a corner using logic, reasonableness and intelligence. That is what a good argument is.

They fear Kate's wrath more should they say something to Jon. Also, Ashely was there to comfort them. I bet Kate was angry that L was excited when she thought Kendra was coming to watch the show with them.
My daughter, 6 months pregnant with baby 3, is not exactly doing a wife swap this week, but she is traveling across the country to visit her best friend who recently had baby 2. Daughter's 2 young boys will be watched by their father and fun uncle; I was the backup. This is how you get away, with your children in the care of familiar faces, and oh, no film crews are coming in either. I disliked the premise of wife swap in the uncelebrity first run; this is even yuckier.
We probably should stick to discussions on puppies and rainbows and not talk about whether Kate had plastic surgery or not, or whether Kendra had a less-than-reputable past, etc., etc.
It seems to rile up too many people who otherwise hardly ever post here.

__________________________________________________________________________
I have 2 boys - 6.5 and almost 8. They would NOT process this well at all. They want to know where my husband and I are all the time. They want to know:
Who is going to pick us up from school?
Where will you be waiting?
Who is taking us to swimming/skating/soccer, etc.?
It goes on and on. They like consistency. They wonder and ask why, if I take a different route home from school.
While we are teaching them age appropriate independence, they like to know what is happening next, who will be there, and most importantly, if both their parents will be where they are.
We like to think of ourselves as easy going parents, but I would NEVER leave my kids for a couple of hours, let alone a WEEK, with someone I don't know.
Just because cameras are there, does not mean things are safely monitored. These people are STRANGERS!!
That doctor that Milo tweeted to didn't even include Kate in his original tweet. All he did was tweet a link to the Hollywood Life article about Kate having surgery. He's not even mentioned in the article.
What does Milo do? Search out everything and anything on twitter that might mention Kate?
Earlier Milo tweeted to Kate and Kate responded:
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack
@Kateplusmy8 I guess U know because U looked so fab the dumb #PlasticSurgery rumors R flyin again? #ShootEmDownKate :)
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8
@MiloandJack I know. NO I haven't had a nose job or ANY other surgeries... Makeup well applied is a wonderful thing, right, @KarenDupiche ?
If Kate doesn't care what anyone thinks about her, why bother to even respond? I think the lady doth protest too much.
It's all makeup and a good bra. Yeah, right.
I just love that "circling the drain" line in regards to Kate. So hoping that is true.
Tucker's Mom-IF Kate did explain it to the kids, she most likely told them a little about the swapping, but probably emphasized more that Deanna or Ashley would be staying with them, too. She may have said "Mommy's is going away, but you won't be alone. Remember when Mommy went to NY and Ashley stayed with you? You're going to have lots of fun now, like you did then". Of course, the kids would probably be happy if it was presented to them that way because someone who they knew would be there with them.
Oh my, Kate looks terrible and so changed. Why would she have this done to her face at a fairly young age?? If she keeps it up she will be like that living Barbie Doll woman. Gross. Wonder what the kids think!
As short as Kate's dress was on The View, I do hope she was wearing more than a thong under it.
Hannah, Do you really not see anything wrong with Kate always having to use her kids to make money? People make comments about Jon not holding down a job but Kate's "career" hasn't exactly been a screaming success either. She was fired from Coupon Cabin and her latest blog is all the same dribble. I think what people find the most offensive about Kate aside from exploiting her children is that she is a complete phoney and liar. She has no job, kids gone 9 hours a day and admits to help 15-20 hours per week yet is totally exhausted with her endless chores drinking gallons of coffee to make it through the day then collapses in to bed. It totally ridiculous and insulting to real mothers who work full time and really have to take care of their kids. I find her so disgusting I could never watch her again on TV. All the media she has gotten so far today has been negative

Hi, everyone.
To 31, 35 and 94: Kendra got $$$ MONEY $$$ for having $ex with Hugh Heffner and for nationally televising the show Girl$ Next Door. Sex for $$$ money $$$. SHE IS A WHORE. Khate is a fame whore. Don't blame me. It is THEIR behavior. If they did not behave in such a fa$hion, they would NOT be called WHORE$.
Get off your soapbox and stop being so self-righteous. You think it's any wonder why people are defecting from this blog.
+++++++++++++++++++
What soapbox? Self-righteous? Just because I commented that calling someone a slut or a whore is degrading to women? It's an opinion, and I would think that many women feel the same way.
Name-calling never got anyone anywhere, and it really doesn't speak well of the person making the comment. Defecting from this blog? Why? Because posters have expressed their opinion that name-calling isn't the way to win friends and influence people?
Seems like some people read here, comment just to stir things up, pick apart the tiniest thing, and then have fun on other blogs "reporting" what they have done. Kind of immature, don't you think?
Whoopi spoke volumns by saying nothing at all.
******
Whoopi usually says just about nothing for the couch interviews. She seems to anchor the Hot Topics along, but throws it to the other ladies for chatting up the guests.
Whoopie just sits there and makes wtf faces most of the time!
Regarding that zipper on Kate's dress. That seems to be a new style lately. I was going to purchase a black blouse, then noticed a white zipper in the back and it looks terrible. I don't know who had that idea, but I sure hope it does not last. You can tell Whoopi does not like Kate and Joy kept giving her the hairy eyeball. This has to be a one time shot for her.
My argument is that Kendra recognizes what her Brand is and sells it. Kate doesn't get that an over-worked but oh so supremely superior super mom doesn't get french manicures and tans on a weekly basis. Kate's brand is not selling and a lot of that is that Kate is doing everything she can to sabotage her own brand. Kate is, as you all say, dumb as a box of lima beans. (Ha, thought I'd mix it up a bit.)
Winter Wonderland...I was referring to Deck Chairs/Titanic's comment about Kendra how it was ok to call her a whore, slut, etc. I found their comment very judgemental, self-righteous and called this person on it.
I apologize if it wasn't made clear.
OT a little, but love the last line in this interview. See, it can be done Kate, Michelle/Jim!

Jeesh. Kate was such a pretty lady at one time.
What happened? In the photo (taken at The View), Kate appears severe/harsh & weathered.
And while I'm nitpicking ( ;o) )That blue slip was a poor choice for daytime t.v.- sorry.
It appears that she's trying to sell something else...
I don't judge Kendra's choices and it amazes me that she has made a career. What she does have going for her is she is very funny and knows how to laugh at herself. She also seems to be close to her family and has a lot friends that love her and like being around her. However, I am Jewish and don't go around preaching Christian values asking churches for help like Khate did. It's like Khate got to live out "her" fantasy of a Hollywood life and Kendra got stuck at the Kompound. To me, it's the hypocrisy of all things Khate that make me loathe "her" more and more every day!
Some posts have good discussion points, and I'm thinking "You got it!", until the last two sentences when it becomes apparent that the post wasn't for the purpose of discussion.
I don't care if people post on multiple blogs, but it doesn't seem quite kosher to post on one blog for the purpose of mocking the responses on another blog.

I have a meeting to go to tonight. Then when I get home I will watch my recording of Face Off. Tonight they have to create alien werewolf creatures!
Admin, I know the recap will be funny!
I took a look at eonline to see what everyone was talking about on twitter about her face.
Oh, my. It's very evident in the video that she has had things done and it does not flatter. If you check it out, take a good look at her forehead and watch her eyes and eyebrows - it's actually pretty funny.

"Further, the word whore means a woman (or man) who sells sexual favors. While we can quibble over whether Kendra sold herself to Hugh Hefner, the basic truth is that she is not nor has never been an official prostitute."
Respectfully, to all involved in this discussion and this is just my personal opinion...
Making a tape of yourself having sex with the intent to sell it, and yes, Vivid Entertainment has a "master tape" of Kendra Wilkinson having sex with her boyfriend that she gave a big okey doke for distribution, is the same thing as prostitution.
Just like Paris Hilton's and Kim Kardishian's tapes. Just like countless others. It is still prostitution.
They may not have charged the guy they were having sex with but I'd bet they promised him a share of the profits when they sold it to Vivid.
Though we might be able to make it less ugly than exploiting your children, it's still not pretty.
In the clip I saw, I was happy to see Brooke ask the question about Jon's consent and Elisabeth seemed to lean in and echo Brooke's question when she asked it.
Yes, they dropped it, but now anyone who thinks Jon supported this, or tried to stop it, can let it rest. He was never even given the courtesy of a phone call and a head's up.
But, you know, anyone who doesn't want to film can't stop it at any time, unless of course you get kicked to the curb. Eh, if Charlie Sheen couldn't stop his ex from filming his girls, Jon's got no chance at all.
Unless... the newly enacted laws in PA are violated. Then, he's got a leg to stand on.
Wow-she really had a lot of work done over the winter. She is starting to look plastic and really resembles the Beverly Hills/Orange County housewives. Even a lot of those housewives have gotten the memo that tans, micro minis and french manicures are very 2006.
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8
@MiloandJack I know. NO I haven't had a nose job or ANY other surgeries... Makeup well applied is a wonderful thing, right, @KarenDupiche ?
She may not have had surgery as in using a scalpel, but for sure she's had Botox and fillers and some laser treatments. And that doesn't bother me - if it makes you feel better, look better (well, it failed in Kate's case) and you can afford it, why not. What infuriates me is that she's using the kids' hard-earned money to pay for her upgrades so that she can continue to find tv work so that she can continue to exploit them. It's a vicious circle.
Unless... the newly enacted laws in PA are violated. Then, he's got a leg to stand on.
-----------
Although the law wasn't in effect when filming was done, I wish someone would ask her if they got the appropriate DOL work permits!
Hollywood Life caught up with several of celebrity surgeons, all of whom agree that Gosselin has had at least $10k worth of work done. Dr. Steven Fallek, a New York-based plastic surgeon told the site that Kate has: “Definitely a facelift,” adding that her: “angles look much sharper along her lower face and neck.” Also in agreement were Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Renato Calabria, and Dr. Ed Williams, Group Vice President for Public and Regulatory Affairs for the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
Meanwhile, several other surgeons think that Gosselin may have had neck surgery as well, citing that her neck looks lifted, while others point to surgery on her nose. Whatever she had done, you’d have to be blind to not notice how different she looks from the Kate we used to watch on Jon & Kate Plus 8. Come on Kate, you’re not fooling anyone!
Did anyone else notice the taller dark haired person in the clip that was played on The View of Kate in the limo waving goodbye to the kids? The person had below shoulder length darker hair. She was definitely smaller than Ashley. I have no idea what Deanna looks like. Also, although they were supposed to be gung-ho about this swap and some of the kids were waving, none of them had a smile on their face nor looked anything like they were excited about the week ahead of them.
Re: Whoopie's body language today. She may normally defer to the other ladies on the panel during the couch interviews, but I thought her posture today was interesting. She was leaning back and had her arms crossed in front of her body resting on her lap. IMO, hardly open and welcoming or interested in the guest.
Oh, one other thing and I'll shut up. As usual Kate talked with her hands WAY too much and it was extremely distracting. The large, flashy, rings placed on both middle fingers only accentuated the problem and as if the flapping hands wasn't distraction enough, she's made absolutely no progress on improving her awkward speech patterns. Much of it is PA dialect and natural to her, but there are professionals that could help her lose that and in turn get rid of what she's so often criticized about. It's glaringly apparent she's done no work to improve her interview skills.

"I don't care if people post on multiple blogs, but it doesn't seem quite kosher to post on one blog for the purpose of mocking the responses on another blog."

Which is exactly what the s##t-stirrers do, only when they take it back and mock the posters, they not only blast them, but pepper the comments with F-this, and F-that, take comments out of context and conclude by calling them the F-word. It's their thing...you just have to "consider the source." Didn't Kate claim she "invented" that saying? :)
I just watched the eonline.com clip and couldn't believe the looks she was giving the guy interviewing her in the beginning and then how bitchy she was when she answered him. God she makes me sick!
Did anyone else watch and think the same thing (aside from how obvious it is she had work done on her face)?
I just looked at the eonline site. I didn't run the video, didn't want to. But it sure looks like Kate got botoxed on her forehead and maybe got her cheeks plumped. The lines around her mouth and the creases on her foreheead are gone in that video still. I think her eye shape is just the dramatic eye makeup she loves, and I don't see any difference in her nose or chin - except the aforementioned plumper face. Just my observation.
Hello all. I am somewhat a fan of Kate's. I have to be honest I admire her for a few reasons, many I'm not willing to share at this exact moment. I've been reading here for a while. I am a true believer that there are 3 sides to every story: yours, theirs, and the truth.
That being said, I enjoy reading comments other than truly malicious ones that I believe are from 16 year olds at ROL or on The Stir. I honestly hate it when grown women (mothers, sisters, daughters) act like cray idiots over a woman they've never met. Its one thing to judge someone, it's another to verbally and publicly denounce a mother based on biased footage. I truly believe TLC created the show to air Kate's faults.
Look at half of their programming! Honey Boo Boo, Strange Addictions, Strange Sex, etc. They make tv to help us understand the un-understandable. If that makes sense. I want to praise you all for acting like rational minds conversing on a sensational topic. I will be watching because as in the first CWS promo "Hmm" is very telling. Kate's getting very little good light shed on her and I think she's set herself up for disaster. This very well could be the last time we see these kids on air, and I as a fan, and totally fine with that!
Love, Light & Peace,
Jolee <3
(Please I am a friend I promise! Do not attack me because I liked a tv show.)

I checked Twitter last night, and found that the key word to generate the tweets is "excited." I'd bet my bottom dollar that these are Twitterbots...the wording is so similar, and they all contain "excited," or "so excited."

In the past 15 minutes, Twitterbots have been flocking to Kate's twitter like bees around a honey pot! Question -- who pays for these? Kate or the network, or a PR firm? It's really quite comical. I'd be so embarrassed if I were Kate. It's so obvious!

so excited to see my favorite tv family on #WifeSwap tonight!
Kate looked gorgeous on The View. And as far as the short dress/heels thing I just see it as her trying to look the part she thinks she's playing. She doesn't look like that all the time and we know that, so why judge her for getting to look great for a day.
To GKWay (#121): Why is it judgmental to call Kendra a whore or slut. Her reality TV show is called Kendra on Top (referencing her position when she has intercourse), $he slept with that old bag of bones Heffner with two other women etc. etc. The monikers describe her quite nicely. As an aside, she also is a child exploiter: her child, Hank Jr. is featured on national TV for bucks. $$$$$
Ill be honest it's hard for me to understand how anyone could still be defending Kate after everything.
Millicent said... 97
I agree with you WW. I realized long ago that words like "slut" "whore", etc. were designed to humiliate and shame women, most of whom most certainly don't deserve that shaming.

True, most don't but some do. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck....
GKWay said... 121
Winter Wonderland...I was referring to Deck Chairs/Titanic's comment about Kendra how it was ok to call her a whore, slut, etc. I found their comment very judgemental, self-righteous and called this person on it.
I apologize if it wasn't made clear.

You forgot to mention how you spewed about this on that other blog. It's hard to take someone's
opinion seriously when the end result is that someone was elsewhere dissing the posters here.

"Ill be honest it's hard for me to understand how anyone could still be defending Kate after everything."
Amen! In the end, isn't that the crux of it?
How does this woman still have supporters when it's so obvious she's just in it for herself?
Kate needs to change her talking points. She's still going on about not dating but the kids are asking her to marry to get a male in the house. Who believes this?
My first impression watching the show, is wow is Kate a bimbo now. What an ass. Wearing a tube top in October in front of Kendra's husband, what a pig. I guess Kate's new "best friend and "babysitter" is makeup artist, Deanndra. SICK. What happened to all the previous ones Kate? Boy this is pitiful and I just started watching it five minutes ago. What's with Kate's bimbo hair?
To AuntiAnn (#145): Exactly my point.
Kate is just disgusting in this. She is doing shots in a bar with half naked dancers and a stripper pole - and she just screamed "you suck" on the golf course. Is "bad girl" Kate her next transformation?
She now looks like an older Jillian Michaels...in drag. Whatever she had done, it was not to her benefit. If I saw her on the street, I'd say she was in her mid to upper 40s.

'' What infuriates me is that she's using the kids' hard-earned money to pay for her upgrades so that she can continue to find tv work so that she can continue to exploit them. It's a vicious circle.''
~~~~~~~~
I agree with you, Jane. KK uses the kids money, and then she LIES that she's having work done.
Shots at a bar, half naked dancers? She has no hope of doing anything but turning people off to her even more. Why was that even necessary? So, having one kid means you get to check your Christian values at the door? Got it.
This was the biggest mistake ever.
Admin - you must be wetting your pants in ecstasy that Kate has a show on TV that you can watch and recap. WHEN ARE PEOPLE GOING TO GET THAT THIS IS A KATE FAN BLOG? And that you are in love with Kate??

_____________
Where do the twitterbots go when their work is done? Is there some Bot purgatory or waiting room where they hide out until they are summoned forth again? It's funny, really!
I'm not watching Kate. I can't stand to look at her. I'm watching Renee and Catherine in Chicago -- for the umpteenth time. i never get tired of it. Of course, Richard Geer isn't hard on the eyes!
This could have been a career builder for Kate. But she's coming off as a controlling, rude bitch without an ounce of caring for little Hank. It's all about scheduling and doing everything Kate's way - she's horribly cold. Ad what the hell did she do to her skin? It used to be fresh looking.
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8
@MiloandJack I know. NO I haven't had a nose job or ANY other surgeries
&&&
Well that's a lie right there, we all saw her have a tummy tuck on TV or did she forget that surgery? There are plenty of things that aren't "really" surgery. Even a facelift and botox and chemical peels and other augmentations aren't REALLY surgery, arguably. Doesn't mean she hasn't invested thousands into altering her appearance. Look, just wash your face, moisturize and put on sunscreen. That's all there is to it. The women in my family collecting social security look great, all of them. Because we have fair genes and had to use sunscreen, hats and other covering out of necessity, and it paid off. Not a single one of them looks anything like Kate. I don't understand why Hollywood thinks this kind of thing makes you look good.
LA is very hot in October it's actually often the hottest time of year but no one wears tube tops unless you still think it's 2002. Classy sundresses, low cut tanks, floppy sun hats, yes, welcome to October 2012.

In what world gone horribly wrong would the only choice be to leave our children withe those two?
I like what Admin said about making a point using intelligence and logic instead of name-calling.
I think that the fact that Hank Jr saw a nude picture of his mom on his dad's mirror says all I need know about Kendra and Hank Sr's judgment and boundaries. I don't know whether the mirror was in a locker room or in their home. Doesn't matter to me--inappropriate and crappy parenting, either way.
To Anonymous (#155): Bwaahaa haa you are so funny. We can't $tand Khate on this blog. We do not like her at all. We think she is the lowest form of life because she exploits her Brood of 8, KAPEESH? Administrator is not in love with Khate.

Exactly what I mean. Hit them with the facts. This is a fact. This is so much harder to refute than simple name calling. It's easy to write off someone just saying well that person is a slut by saying well they are just a hater. It's harder to justify a naked picture your son discovers in plain view on your mirror.
Yes I'm in love with Kate. Makes perfect sense. She even employs me to run this blog. And she's one cheap bast&rd.
Kate needs to schedule in time for a personality.

Congratulations! You finally got that published here. Do you need a towel yourself?

Yep. Real classy there.
You know who I am fond of, the people here. This is a fun group. I miss the people who have left and it's nice to see some old faces popping in today, like richsmom! Hey!!
Like I said the other week this reminds me of a funeral catching up with people you haven't seen in awhile. I'm happy to see you, but sorry it's under these circumstances! LOL.
Much of it is PA dialect and natural to her, but there are professionals that could help her lose that and in turn get rid of what she's so often criticized about. It's glaringly apparent she's done no work to improve her interview skills.
---------------------
Unfortunately, it's difficult to lose that dialect. I have it, and I really don't notice it with her because it just sounds "normal" to me. Although I had numerous courses in communications/speech and thought I had left that dialect behind, folks still can tell where I'm from! What she really needs professional help with are the ummms and her total lack of effective communication. She's sadly lacking in how to be a good interviewee. I don't think she's ever taken a communications course, which is surprising because she always said she'd like a job as a television host..
WOW. No shock, but Kate is just a TOTAL asshole on CWS. She keeps saying Hank enables Kendra to do nothing and be lazy, but I think Kate is just straight-up jealous as hell of Kendra's life. That's the life SHE wants.
And how pathetic that Kate had to bring her makeup artist as her "spouse" to the final talk.
Kendra came off as super sweet, warm, loving, and kind.
I lost count of how many times Kate insulted Kendra and Hank's parenting and their lives.
Girlfriend was so jealous her skin was green. And she lied her orange ass off about not having help. She has paid help AND she rides all eight kids like donkeys making them do all the bitch work.
There's chores, which are good for a kid, and there's making them do everything, which is bad and what Kate does.
And someone needs to tell Kate to climb down off that cross, we need the wood.
Yes I'm in love with Kate. Makes perfect sense. She even employs me to run this blog. And she's one cheap bast&rd.
-------------------------
Well, you'll have to fight Milo for her!
Really? I definitely heard a "philly accent" when I lived in PA, it sounded VERY STRONG to me as strong as a Jersey accent (I hear it with KAte and even more with Jon), but it had nothing to do with the ordering of words. I don't see how awkward wording has a thing to do with dialect. I don't know, kinda makes PA people seem stupid and that was not the case I noticed whatsoever.
I think that the fact that Hank Jr saw a nude picture of his mom on his dad's mirror says all I need know about Kendra and Hank Sr's judgment and boundaries.
---------------
Didn't Kendra say in an interview that she showers with Hank Jr? So I guess he's seen them up close and personal.
I find it very telling that while KATE is griping to Kendra about how she's messing up, Kate is tearing up. That is because SHE wants that life.
OMG....
Kate complained how Hank did everything and Kendra didn't nothing...
Um Kate you did the same while married to Jon remember?
Jon did everything and you did nothing.
Oh boy, they are telling Kate she needs to focus more on herself. That's just what she needs to hear.
WOW. No shock, but Kate is just a TOTAL asshole on CWS. She keeps saying Hank enables Kendra to do nothing and be lazy
&&&
How does SHE know? Did she observe their relationship? It's so RUDE. I thought Kate says you shouldn't pass judgments on people, but here she is doing it herself and not just doing it but doing it in the most rude, cutting way possible. The worst thing you can do to a woman is attack either her kids or husband.
Anonymous...155,
Congratulations! You finally got that published here. Do you need a towel yourself?

I figure since it's a "special" day I would let it through. Besides they said it as respectfully as I could have hoped for.
I laughed so hard at the end, when it said Kate is trying to learn how to relax guilt-free.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! !! Oh my. She's already quite good at that
What was crystal clear from this show, and what we all knew, is that those 8 kids do all the work around the house. They aren't doing typical kid chores, they're working. And Kate treats them like little slaves. Yes, kids need schedules and boundaries but where's their life? It's all about keeping order.
Also, my heart breaks for all those kids but particularly Mady and Cara who are clearly going through puberty. This can't have been easy for them...and I suspect they'll be teased in school.
Interesting to see that when Kate arrived home, the kids didn't jump for joy. They did look genuinely sad when Kendra left.
Why is this country so hung-up on the human body naked? In Europe its no big deal and all this "he saw a picture her naked" is ridiculous."

*****
Yes and yes. Nothing wrong with it, but were people having problems understanding what Kate was saying?
It's been a while since I've mentioned it, but Kate's (more than Jon's, but it's there) shibboleth so to speak is her long "I" sound, as in "like" and "right". It's very Philly and even NJ.
I agree, it's obvious, we're ALL in love with Kate.
Now go away.
----------------------------
I have a cardboard cut-out of her in my bedroom...I say goodnight to her every night, after I sing, "Close to You" and cover her with a cashmere blanket. She deserves to have the very best, don't you know?
Of course, with the new plastic surgery, I might have to make a few alterations to her face. I hope I don't screw it up...
I also found it telling that when Kendra was trying to be as "hard" and mean as Kate is, it had her in tears.
It's not about being naked. It's about a sexual pose. Even in Europe kids are not exposed to sexual things until they are old enough. In no first world country am I aware of three year olds being exposed to sexual things in a manner that is appropriate.
Even if you can argue it's not harmful, it's a societal norm and I question people who are so hellbent on defying societal norms, makes you wonder what other laws and rules they are willing to break. If she likes it so much she can move lol.

I think it all depends on what type of nude picture it was. American society is truly prudish if all nudity is 'bad', my goodness. You know there are nudists, who live quite happily, w/their children. Nothing crappy about it. The human body is nothing to be ashamed of. It's how it's being displayed, or used, that defines that.

WOW...Kate looked terrible in the 'couples' sit down exchange.
Big Whoop - there is a Big difference between a nude photo and an erotic nude photo. I think we all can figure out what the one of Kendra was.

Last time I checked, this wasn't Europe.
Oh my! They are having the meeting after the swap. kate is soooo jealous of Kendra having the Life of Riley!!! She threw Kendra under the bus, train and plane and basically told Kendra I do all that you did with 8 and you do nothing with 1! I thought Hank WAS GOING TO BLOW. He held back. She told Hankjr that she was going to take care of him and he told her you are not taking care of me! Way to go hank Jr!!! Did you see kate's demon face she had when Kendra told her that she wanted to go see the playhouse and she said yes, and they ran, and it was like freedom and kate was kinda smiling, but gave Kendra a demon stinky face look. kate is a cruel, demeaning stah wannbe! She is sooooo jealous of Kendra she couldn't stand it! Thought Ashley was there! She may have been but wasn't shown. That Deanna is just a joke. Deanna is an enabler of kate. Those kids work like mules, the boys looked disassociated. They look like they are so zombie and are just going through the motions. kate couldn't stand it that Hankjr went to preschool. Well kate, that is how they learn social skills and develop normally. She went over the line about her telling Kendra that she needed to do this and that. Kendra should of told her You work your children like mules! They are children! Not slaves! This would of been catastrophic for kate. Also, did you see the picture they used of Jon talking to the press and they BLURRED OUT HIS FACE! How dare her have that done! Of course she did! I hope Jon has some recourse about the show. Cant he sue ABC for using his kids without his permission? He does have joint custody!
Kate needs to take more time for herself? WTF??? If that witch takes more time all to herself the kids won't recognize her when she does come home. All she has ever done is try to get away from her kids.
ANother thought. If it was "no big deal" then Kendra wouldn't have mentioned it. She would have thought nothing of him seeing it. She would put naked photos all around the house. Instead she kept it in a somewhat private spot on a bedroom mirror.
Clearly she knew it was something he shouldn't see and clearly she framed the story as he got into something he shouldn't have.
Kate was also standing awkwardly during her view appearance.
She was standing like she does when she takes photos.
Some thoughts:
What RH said is true. Those kids looked very confused when Kendra showed up.
Cara looks very very sad.
The kids are very rude.
Kate had some nerve talking about Hank Jr using a fork when her kids used bibs for so long.
Completely ironic that Kate said Hank pulls more than his fair share.
Deanna is a brainwashed dingbat.
Sounds horrible. We have a date to watch The Master tonight so the recap may not happen until later in the week.
I'm not sure KAte realizes she insults many mothers who only have one kid or two making it seem like NO ONE works or really understands her unless you have eight kids. Downright insulting.
Kate has a very short memory. She went on and on about Hank doing everything for Kendra, but doesn't she remember when she used to sit her lazy ass in that plastic throne and bark orders at Jon. Big difference here is that Hank seems to do all he does for his wife out of pure love and not because of being so berated that he does things just to shut her up. Kate may not have a good memory about that but a lot of people who watched Jon&Kate sure do.
