And she made the point perfectly. "NOT ONE PERSON" in a crowd of "thousands of fans...armed w/cell phones/cameras" bothered to take a picture of Kate or the twins, with or without Steve. Done, over, finished.
Thank you "Fired Up 4 Kate" for pointing this out so clearly to her. Maybe coming from you, her true friend, she'll finally get that it's over.

Never underestimate the stupidity of Gladys Kravitz. She shoots herself in the foot every single time. She tries so hard to convince Kate and her fans that Kate is still relevant and loved world-wide, but all she ends up doing is showing that the opposite is true. You'd think by now that she would have learned.
CNN said it is possible it was a bomb, but details coming out are still pretty sketchy. Apparently there was a large percentage of chinese nationals aboard. It's on CTV right now.
Guest what was on: CWS with Kate & 8, on Lifetime. I watched part of it, Kate is so full of sh1t. She stinks to high heaven. Couples should raise kids and share responsibilities equally, yeah Kate just like you did when you were married to Jon. Jon worked 8 + hours and came home and took care of kids, even though Kate had Nannies during the day to take care of kids. Yeah, that was equal responsibility. LOLOLOL
Kate is silent, cause she is probably meeting with the Irwins. Either the Irwins are at the house or Kate & 8 are in NYC. Pics soon to follow.
One report said possible terrorism, probably just guessing at this point. CNN is not covering it, they changed their programming, so no continuous news after 9 p.m., but Canadian CTV will be reporting, as their were 2 Canadians on it.
CS said... 159 localyocul said... 121 Kate is a twit said... 112 BTW - what was everyone else's first concert? -----------
The Beatles-Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, August 1964.
****
Well everyone sit down. Noone can top that!
localyocul. I was there too! I was also blessed to have been able to attend The Ed Sullivan Show at CBS when the Beatles made their first appearance, Feb,1964. My father was a New York City Police Officer at the time, he was on duty during both appearances and was able to get us in. What memories! I lived in Forest Hills and graduated from Forest Hills High School. Did you ever shop at Ronnies?
)))
Man I'm jealous. I was a big Beatles fan back in the 80s when I was in High School. They were and always will be the best
OK, Elvis and Janis Joplin are right up there with the Beatles. And speaking of the Doors, one of my friends dressed up as Jim Morrison for Hero Day in High School in the 80s. The nuns were not impressed.
Missing plane is found off the coast of Vietnam, picked up a signal, going now to try to find them, it is now a pretty sure bet that it exploded in the air above Vietnam. Families have been called to gather for the news.

I was confused because tweets said the plane signal was found. Guess it was the black box..why isn't the whole plane made with the black box material I've always wondered.

First real concert: Deep Purple, 1973. It was an outdoor concert and prior to that show, it had rained buckets for days and days. We were quite literally thigh high in mud by the end of the night. It was also the first time I smo-... never mind.
Prior to that, my dad used to take me to Young People's Concerts with the city orchestra. My dad smoked Pall-Malls during those years. Little ashtrays in the arms of the seats, even.

I KNOW!! I KNOW!!! (Waving hands wildly!) Kate was FILMING! Yeah, that's the ticket! She was filming her dating show. You remember; the one she 'signed on for' and it was all a done deal and coming soon to a small screen near you annnnyyyyyy day now! Yep, filmin' that thar Datin' Show that Katie Irene got all 'signed on for', so betcha by golly wow there'd a bin some derned hand holdin'! No pics coz all them thar teeny bopper fans signed CA's!
Talking to your teenagers with your hands in a public auditorium? Isnt that called 'hitting'? And might be looked down on by normal folks in public? I had 2 teens and a toddler and it's true, however - my teens never heard from me again coz I had a todder in one hand. So sad.
Localyocul, do all black boxes survive explosions?? No one has determined for sure if it was an explosion, they are saying it could not be anything else. I guess by morning we should know the correct information. Hubs said it's time to get me out of the house, so we may be going to walmart. I will be getting the sewingless glue! Admin., I finally am eating one of your favorites-avocados! I use half of one in my daily protein shakes, with a spoonful of coconut oil for good measure. Of course all of the dogs love them too! They are not as bad as I thought, I even whipped some into my omelets.
Long time poster- long time no post. (OG Kristine)
I adore the person, who asked if anyone ever saw Buddy Holly and the Crickets in concert. My mother grew up with 10 kids on a large farm in Minneapolis. She saved every penny to see her idol, Buddy on her 16th birthday and traveled to the event in Iowa with her high school pals, on that tragic day. She had no idea what news she would wake up to hear the next morning after she came home. ----------------------------------------------------------- February 3rd, 1959: Within minutes of takeoff from the Mason City, IA Airport, at around 1:00 AM CST, the chartered Beech-Craft Bonanza airplane No. N3794N containing Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper crashes into the Iowa countryside, killing all three in addition to pilot Roger Peterson...
That was it. My mother's 16th birthday-- and very first concert. We are true Beatles/Elvis fans, so I can appreciate the Tennis venue story.
My first concert was here in L.A. It was Adam and the Ants, doing their Viva Le' Rock tour at the Greek Theatre. I was in the 6th grade and took a best friend and little sis and another BFFs brother, to pretend he was our personal Purse Boy. I've seen so many shows, and Nirvana Nevermind was incredible at the Forum. Depeche Mode about 100 times- sometimes a half dozen times a year.
**Waving to Shmecky**... Depeche Mode is still the BEST live concert, yet not my first.
nothing else is on TV right now, kids and hubby are all in bed while I finish up laundry. Watching bits of Khate's CW and she is a royal Bitch. I wish Hank had told her off. She needed to be slapped. I think she is just "jellus" that Kendra has a man that loves her and a lifestyle that Khate only dreams of having.
Sorry, posted as my twitter name again, don't want to be thought of as a drive-by or whatever! So many of you have seen some pretty awesome concerts, you are so very lucky! I think geography matters, as where I grew up, there were rarely any big name groups. April Wine was in 1976, I was just about allowed to go, but then they cancelled. Even Perry Como would have been okay with me, I still have an old Christmas music cassette of his! Goodnight all, have a great weekend, we are expecting temps above 0 all weekend, as long as the weather man is right.
1971 - Lexington, KY. Some famous band played. My first date on campus, freshman year. My date was as forgettable as the band. I think it was "Blood, Sweat and Tears". My date kept hollering "SPINNING WHEEL" while the warm up performer was on. Everything about that night was awful.
Everything but the warm up guy. Bill Withers. He was pretty good. A whole lot better than the featured band, I can tell you that. Too bad he got shouted off the stage by my date and others to make room for the Spinning Wheel guys.
I got a personal, in- the -car concert from Harry Chapin. I went with a friend to pick him up at an airport (no limo for him, an old, dented compact car was perfectly fine) and Harry played and sang for us between the bits of conversation. It was remarkable.
Localyocul, I guess your question was rhetorical. If not, you can't make the whole plane out of black box material because it would never fly. Way too heavy. They almost always get the black box back unless the water is too deep. There are also 2 black boxes, one for data and one for voice. The hope is at least one will be located and analyzed. However I do not remember if they got them back after 9/11 but that was a prolonged fire. In an explosion in the air the pieces come apart and it is less likely there is a prolonged fire for every element of the plane.
I do not mean to be ghoulish. It sounds like a terrible disaster and does not appear hopeful. It could be accidental or intentional. If it is intentional, this specific plane probably meant nothing. Often terrorists want to show they can do something, anything.
My first concert was Whitney Houston in Hershey when I was about 20. My parents would not take me to concerts and had no idea about popular music. I had little idea about popular music since I couldn't listen to any radio except one station until I was about 16. It was a serious disadvantage in junior high. But I wouldn't have wanted my mother with me at a concert anyway so I guess it worked out.
First concert was The Mothers of Invention with Frank Zappa. However I'm not sure it qualifies as a concert as it was in a coffee house called the New Penelope back in 1966. Large band, big sound, small venue in Montreal.
Best concerts were Bob Dylan and the Rolling Thunder Revue in 1975, Paul Simon's Graceland tour and Janis Joplin in 1970 all at the Montreal Forum.

Seriously? Oh, my gosh. Really? She actually saw Buddy at the Surf Ballroom during the Winter Dance Party tour? How special is that! If time travel were possible, I'd go back to that night to see that show with Buddy, Richie and the Big Bopper. I'd warn them not to get on the plane -- would hog-tie them down if I had to. It would be fascinating to see how the course of rock and roll would have evolved had that plane crash not happened.
I've never been to Clear Lake, Iowa, but it's on my bucket list to visit the venue on an anniversary of that last concert. Buddy was before my time, but what I would give to have been able to see one of his shows!
Speaking of plane crashes, news sources are still not confirming the fate of the Malaysia plane. No explosion is being reported, only that it's possible that it went down in the South China Sea.
Jennifer Hinebaugh @jennangel5 5h @Kateplusmy8 My 2 year old daughter pooped on the potty for the 1st time ever & I took a pic of it & instantly thought of you. Fondly. :)
Why? Going to include the picture in your Christmas newsletter?
After that, my first official concert was Yes at the Spectrum in Philly. ****** That's where my first concert was, too! Sitting up there in the nose bleeds, you got to see a concert and get high at the same time ;-) Yup, people not only were allowed to smoke indoors back then, but they were smoking everything.

I heard on the news that they said a American couple was on the Malaysia plane and a baby. They didn't make it clear if the baby was theirs or not. Lord, please be with them.
I remember when Pan Am 103 exploded over Ireland. They showed all the flowers at the crash site. There was some flowers there that had a card remembering a young girl that he sat next to on the plane. It said on the card that he was so sorry. The man had gotten off the plane to catch a different plane to go to London. The card was signed Love, Charles.
I have thought about that card all these years. When I hear about a plane crashing, I think about that card.

Yeah I was being sarcastic. The whole thing is such a damn shame.
@Kateplusmy8 Every mom knows they need both hands free to tell their teenagers not to run off. Hand holding story is ridiculous.
-----------------------------
Kate and Steve couldn't have been holding hands because she needed her hands to talk to the twins? Was this from a sheeple or a non-fan who was snarking and being sarcastic? No sheep could be that dumb, could they? Then again, there was one recently asking if Kate used a pattern for the bird hat, so I guess they really could be this stupid.
Someone should keep a list of the dumbest things sheeple say. They're always good for a laugh.
I'm still laughing that people thought I was serious about the black box. C'mon! You people of cool concerts...you must know it was a George Carlin quote! LMAO

They absolutley can be that dumb. Yes it was a sheep.
I've seen husbands and wives hold hands lots of times while out with their children. I guess they don't care if their teenagers run off? Once again, the lengths these people will go to defend TFW boggles the mind. And once you declare ROL as reputable, don't go cherry-picking what you do and don't believe about their stories.

-----------------------------
Kate and Steve couldn't have been holding hands because she needed her hands to talk to the twins? ******* There's some serious logic for you. Not. Well, actually, my mom communicated with me- actually, and I to her- using Jazz Hands. When needed, we used Naval flag signals.
Kate is not some big star that most people would recognize, so I agree with the poster that with the fan base at the concert, Kate and Steve just looked like any other couple. It just so happened someone who used to watch the show recognized the girls first and then Kate with her big mouth bitching at the girls gave herself away. I asked how come this person did not mention Steve and I guess someone tweeted her and described him. It must not been on this person's radar that Steve and Kate holding hands is a big deal after all her denials ( and I've never heard Steve deny anything).
I,too, remember years ago the rumor about Gina and Steve divorcing, but I don't think it was true. I don't even know if they are US citizens. And, the house is still in both their names as far as I can tell. Hell, I think he has not been faithful, but some wives put up with that crap or simply believe the husbands' denials. The guy is certainly considered by Kate more than an employee and part of the family (Uncle Steve). I mean, calling him Uncle Steve is a HUGH tipoff. It's a way to have the kids accept his participation in the family and frequent visits.
I am certain all will be revealed in the future. When a guy, who is not the husband, has a say so in how big a woman's fake breasts should be, it's more than a business relationship. Kate obviously wants to please him.
The only reason the whole relationship is fascinating to me has been her denials and Jon's intuition while he was married to Kate. There is an incredibly strong incentive to keep an inappropriate relationship under wraps because it would blow up her image. And Steve probably has no intention of marrying Kate even if his marriage to Gina is a sham. As long as a wife turns a blind eye, why not get a little on the side. It goes on all the time.
Just because Kate was a cold fish to a Jon does not mean she is like that with all men. If anything, she may have been promiscuous as a young woman.
According to the ROL article, Johnny Weir is also being considered for Celebrity Apprentice. Can you just imagine Johnny and Kate being on the same team? We all know how Johnny feels about Kate.
I've never really watched CA, but if Johnny and Kate were both on, that would definitely be "must see TV"!
Tucker's Mom said... 55 Kate is rumored as a possible Celebrity Apprentice contestant: http://radaronline.com/exclusives/2014/03/kate-gosselin-to-celebrity-apprentice/
&&&&&&&&
This probably explains her teasing tweet the other day about her being busy with phone calls. Whatever it takes to get her toothy mug on tv, kids or no kids. But wait...don't they donate their money to a charity or something (I've never watched the show)?
Kate put that "out there" Im betting...I'll believe it when I see it!! Shes trying to create a buzz so someone will take notice. Not holding my breath with this nonsense. This is her usual MO...
I am a CA fan and watch every year and I would love to see TFW on it. From what various "celebrities" have said its one of the hardest things that they've done. You actually have to work and get something accomplished AND the money you earn goes to charity. She'd have to do it on her own, no kids, no purse boy. She would be eaten alive in the boardroom. Doesn't this rumor surface every year and nothing ever comes of it? I tend to thing that TFW's camp puts it out there hoping that someone in The Donald's camp will pick up on it and give her a call. Every year I still hope it's true though. Is she so narcissistic that she actually thinks she'd do we'll on the show? No work ethic, no creativity, no rich friends to tap in to for donations.....yes, I want to see her on the show.
I doubt if its true....Its her "people " trying to make her look relavent...If it was her sheep would just say "Kates supporting her kids"...thats a no brainer...no spin needed.
If she was going to be on the show...they would just announce it Not this "shes being eyed"...crap..reminds of the dating show fiasco. Her bags were practically packed. This is soooo planted, its ridiculous. Im exhausted from all her "maybe" shows. Now the bots will go crazy and nothing will come of it. What a surprise!!
These first concerts are bringing back so many great memories! My first was the 1964 Dick Clark Caravan of Stars (yes, I am *that* old!), with an all-star lineup including Gene Pitney (sigh), The Dixie Cups, The Shirelles, The Supremes & Jan and Dean (double sigh). I dreamed of seeing the Beatles, but would have been in fangirl heaven if I had been there for fidosmommy's private Harry Chapin concert.
If Kate gets on CA- great, just don't put a camera crew in the house ever again. We've always said "more power to Kate" if she wants to be a reality tv D-list staple. I can really see Jon doing CA, too. I hope he gets all of the kids while Kate's filming.
Just a heads up that there is a rumor that I, FlimsyFlamsy, am going to be on Celebrity Apprentice. I am also rumored to be on Dancing With The Stars, Survivor, and Top Chef. By the way, I'm starting that rumor myself. Jump in with your own rumors about yourselves if you like. Travoltafying is sooo last week!
LOL, Kate on Celeb Apprentice? They'd have to reserve an extra seat at the table for Steve since he can't go anywhere w/o him. I can see it now, TFW whispering w/him before speaking, sending him out to do tasks while she masterminds her next step, hiding in closets when she doesn't feel like appearing while he explains - yeah, she'd be a great choice.
I guess it all depends on how desperately Donald needs someone to exploit/ridicule for show controversy whether she'll be offered a spot and then how desperate she is for money that she'd put herself into a position to be made a fool of. HA, Exploitation... it would be so fitting for Donald to do that to her! LOL Karma - her bite stings!

I thought Milo knew everything there was to know about Kate? Does she really think that Kate will "confirm" the rumor, just because she asked her to?
Funny, Milo asks Kate for confirmation about CA, but never asked Kate if she and Jon talked on the phone while he was filming CT.
As far as I remember, CA doesn't announce it's cast list until they actually start filming. So we won't have confirmation until at least next month, as most articles state that CA will start filming in the Spring.

Hang on to that pic there, Jennifer. Kate might hold another contest.
That 2014 CA cast list is not the official list but what was tweeted in January, so legitimately Kate can start the rumor that she is being considered (after her agent called that Kate is available no doubt, LOL). Of course she has to get her name out there because Jon snagged a show. I doubt she would get on considering The Donald is well aware she offers nothing but more of the same. Back in a January she was not even being considered but I wonder if somebody dropped out and Kate has applied for the spot. That makes sense to me. Anyone know the date of their normal official announcement?
Sounds like Kate was ducking away from the tweeter trying to get a photo. The account sounds totally believable and the tweeter had witnesses. I don't see any reason for this person to lie about the hand holding. Wow! So close to photographic proof!
By sheep logic, since there is no pic of TFW holding hands with SN, it never happened. By that logic, she was never even at the concert since there are no pics of her. Yet TFW tweeted about it. I wonder how many of them have even a high school diploma.
I don't see CA ever happening for Kate. I'm sure The Donald would love another Omorosa like angle- the problem is the money. Kate has been Kate's charity since 2004. I'm sure she wants a DWTS salary. There's just no way she would do the show and give any money she generates to an actual charity. And ITA with Carole, how will she be able to go out in public and interact with other contestants with Steve attached to her hip? She's too much drama, too much baggage, too much trouble. Not worth the aggravation.

Does this mean there is still a chance she could be picked? I thought at one time she said she had been approached. Maybe she declined. I mean how many times does she want to hear "Kate, you're FIRED"?
LILY MACKEN @macken_lily 40m Dying laughing at aaden right now " I dont get my cupcake?? AWHHH"@Kateplusmy8
Laughing? Dying laughing? When a child doesn't get to eat a cupcake? What kind of sadistic morons are these people? This episode, along with Gumgate, just broke my heart.
I highly doubt TFMJG will be on CA. She's too lazy, too unmotivated, too stupid, too selfish, too insular. But if by some chance she should be, Admin would have a field day doing the recaps!
Auntie Ann -- If you have both hands free, you can double the bird!
I guess since Gladys didn't get an answer from Kate about smoking, she wasn't going to ask about the hand holding rumor, or CA. If she and Kate are as close as two snugglebugs, she'd know about CA and she'd never, in a million years, be able to keep it a secret. Milo would have given hints (in code) on Twitter. She didn't even know that Kate was a concert. Milo is really slipping up on the job.
Sunset Blvd said... 84 How dare you think that Kate was holding hands with Steve? She needs her hands free to snap her fingers and clap at the twins. _____
She also need on free hand to hold the pink Iphone just in case the Donald calls or any producer calls.
I hope Kate gets CA. And hope she lasts long enough to become project manager. Now that will be great tv. Watching her try & talk her way thru the boardroom when she has NO rich connections to call in. It would be epic!
In the end, CA is all about Celebrity connections & how much money you can convince them to donate in your name/honor. Money & connections do the talking on CA, nothing else does. I wanna watch her call in her "connections". does she have Bravo Andy on speed dial? no? does she know a T. Boone Pickens like Trace Adkins did? no? does she have all the folks from her show "network" to call on for donations? no?
I wonder if Kate won't get picked for CA because she really has no celebrity pull when it comes to raising money. Who is she going to ask for donations? The thousands of church-going Christians she fleeced for years?
The celebs on CA generally have enough good will built up so that they can call on wealthy friend and colleagues to pony up some serious cash.
Kate will also get a good deal of shite from cast mates if she's got Steve tagging along everywhere they go. I can't see allowing him around- she'd have an unfair advantage.
Aaden crying for his BIRTHDAY cupcake is such good entertainment!!!!!!! I can imagine that sheep is shoveling buttered popcorn down her greasy maw and wiping her bloated fingers on her Clay Aiken t-shirt, and she guffaws at the boob tube.
ITA I'd love to see Kate on CA. The woman can fake very little and she's extremely lazy. Radar Online is saying Johnny Wier may be on too. Now THAT would be worth watching! He'll rip Kate a new one and he's very smart too. She's dumb as a box of rocks.
I don't see CA ever happening for Kate. I'm sure The Donald would love another Omorosa like angle- the problem is the money. Kate has been Kate's charity since 2004. I'm sure she wants a DWTS salary.

And ITA with Carole, how will she be able to go out in public and interact with other contestants with Steve attached to her hip? She's too much drama, too much baggage, too much trouble. Not worth the aggravation. ***** One of the big aspects of being on CA is the ability to draw in big donors. A lot of the challenges involve calling up friends and contacts who have deep pockets and soliciting donations from them for your team. Who could Kate tap? She has no friends, and her only acquaintances would be her make-up person Deanna, and her twitter fans such as Milo. None of them have any significant money to donate.
However, I would love to see Kate on CA and am keeping my fingers crossed that it happens. It would be quite interesting to watch and see if she could make it past the first episode. Her boobyguard would not be allowed to attend with her and she'd have to interact with the other contestants (or not - imagine the unlimited opportunities for social awkwardness!).
However, there are so many other celebrities and recent Olympic sports stars out there to choose from, that I doubt Kate would even be considered. She's yesterday's news.
The only reason the whole relationship is fascinating to me has been her denials and Jon's intuition while he was married to Kate. There is an incredibly strong incentive to keep an inappropriate relationship under wraps because it would blow up her image. And Steve probably has no intention of marrying Kate even if his marriage to Gina is a sham. As long as a wife turns a blind eye, why not get a little on the side. It goes on all the time. ******************** I find it interesting also that some people will tear Jon down for dating what they consider a lot of women, or going out to bars and having some drinks and chatting up women, but don't seem bothered by Kate's relationship with Steve.
Jon is single. The women he has dated were all single at that time. Yet Kate began this twisted relationship with Steve while still married to Jon. While she is now divorced, Steve is still married. But somehow, that relationship gets ignored.
As I said, it's just interesting that dating while single gets much criticism, while Kate and her married "body guard" seem to get excused away.
However, there are so many other celebrities and recent Olympic sports stars out there to choose from, that I doubt Kate would even be considered. She's yesterday's news. ***** So true. The pool of D-list celebs has multiplied exponentially since say the birth of The Real World. They were a rare breed and really were much closer to a celeb than these dime-a-dozen TLC has beens.
My first concert experience was seeing Pablo Cruise at the local fairgrounds. I had to leave early because I had a curfew that my mom strictly enforced, and I felt very uncool! Still, it was fun while it lasted. Don't know how widely known Pablo Cruise were - they only had one album as far as I know and might have been a California band only.
I'm sitting here thinking we could put together a coffee table book, chronicling vignettes of our first real concert experiences! ________________________
Ha! TM, your suggestion reminded me of how I got to go to The Grass Roots concert. I was in 7th grade at a Catholic school when a new, young priest was assigned to the parish. All the school kids thought he was very cool. He drove a Volkswagen Beetle, so he decided to hold a contest to see who could cram more people into his car - the 7th grade boys or girls. The winning team would get a prize.
Well, the boys just all jumped in willy, nilly - arms and legs flying. They managed to get in about 20 guys. We girls, on the other hand, planned out how everyone would sit or lie down, and we were able to fit 32 people in! So we won the contest and Father Tom took us to the mini-concert and Phillies game. I remember there was also a hot-pants contest before the game, and one of my classmates was a runner up.
Wow. I haven't thought of that story in more than 40 years! I love this blog.

It seems we have these conversations every season before the CA cast is announced.
I used to think I didn't care if she got on TV if it was without the kids. Since the stunt she pulled with the twins I hope she is blackballed from any kind of TV.

First concert,Elvis around 1955 with my mom and my older sis. Before we left I could not find my cat so all I wanted to do is get home and see my kitty. As soon as we got home and I went into the closet to put my shoes away, there was my baby all cuddled up in a nice cozy bed he made himself on top of a basket of clothes. My sis hated that cat so I still think she was the last one in the closet, lol. She will die laughing when I tell her I posted that here.
Other concerts, Kenny Rogers, Kool and the Gang and Capt and Tannell at Endymion Extravaganza (a Mardi Gras parade that rolls before Fat Tues and a huge event in New Orleans Superdome). KC and the Sunshine in the Dome. New Orleans. My favorite was Celine Dion in Vegas 2006, what a show she put on. Tickets ran over $200 but worth every penny. Went with nurse friends and when we went back in 2008 (we try to do Vegas every 2 years, we all worked together before Katrina and try to keep the Vegas thing as a mini reunion), Elton had replaced Celine but we didn't have advanced purchased tickets, bummer.
Does anyone have a Bucket Concert List? I want to see ABBA Museum in Sweden, anyone been there?
The Beatles played in 1964 at City Park Stadium in New Orleans, I was in 10th grade and had a car but no money for tickets, so my friends and I went and sat in driveway by my aunts house and listened from there. Worked for us.
Grandee asked, "Does anyone have a Bucket Concert List?"
----------------------
I had one, but it's too late. I always wanted to see John Denver in concert, but it never happened. If you have an entertainer on your bucket list, and the opportunity is there, don't put it off. You just never know...
I wonder if Kate won't get picked for CA because she really has no celebrity pull when it comes to raising money. Who is she going to ask for donations? The thousands of church-going Christians she fleeced for years?
====
Actually CA would really put her grifting skills to the test. It IS something - okay the only thing - she's good at.
I used to think I didn't care if she got on TV if it was without the kids. Since the stunt she pulled with the twins I hope she is blackballed from any kind of TV.
********
I'm with you on that one. I wouldn't watch her on any show, with or without the kids. I just can't stand to listen to her, or see her, especially after that stunt with the twins.
Father Tom took us to the mini-concert and Phillies game. I remember there was also a hot-pants contest before the game, and one of my classmates was a runner up.
Wow. I haven't thought of that story in more than 40 years! I love this blog. ****** I have had SO many memories come up through this blog. I love your story. I don't think we ever had a priest that cool in Catholic school. A bunch of crabby nuns, sure...
Typical Kate. She has to put it out there she's being eyed for CA EVERY season. Not a chance. And I do not want her mug on TV ever again.
This just a stunt to get her fans to write in their support to have her in the show, nothing more .
Millicent, the difference between Jon and Kate is Jon is open about his relationships but Kate and Steve have a lot to lose if they are caught. Nobody is glossing over anything. They just haven't been caught but the hand holding was sloppy. Who knows? There may very well be a tabloid hot on their tail as we speak.
A lot of people have affairs so the only reason I can come up with for keeping it so secret is that what is left of her fans will desert her as a home wrecker. She will be seen for what she is: a liar. Dating a married man is taboo. And who knows what facts come out about her being involved with Steve while married to Jon. It's a nasty can of worms.
I don't think we ever had a priest that cool in Catholic school. A bunch of crabby nuns, sure... _____________________
Oh, Travis Meems! We had plenty of crabby nuns as well! My personal faves were the ones who liked to rap kids on the knuckles with a ruler. And kids who misbehaved had the distinct pleasure of staying after school to clap the erasers. They would get in even more trouble when they "clapped" them outside against the brick walls and left chalk marks all over the brick. Ah, good times!
The reason I don't want her on TV is that it will confirm in her mind she is still relevant, and therefore will continue to scheme ways to involve the kids.
Well, the boys just all jumped in willy, nilly - arms and legs flying. They managed to get in about 20 guys. We girls, on the other hand, planned out how everyone would sit or lie down, and we were able to fit 32 people in! So we won the contest and Father Tom took us to the mini-concert and Phillies game

You just made me recall when we went to Festival Express. We had been sitting in the middle of a football field 12 hours a day for 2 days baking, roasting, and finally burning in the hot sun, listening to all these great bands. When it was over we had picked up a couple of people needing a ride back to our town (hippie days were a blast). So nine of us piled into our friends tiny little 1969 Renault, our noses and foreheads smeared with Noxema for the three-hour drive home in the middle of the night, wriggling around, burnt, greasy, smelly and happier than pigs in a manure pile talking about the concert all the way home.
What a sight we must have been. At least the smell of the Noxema overpowered our BO. We had great times back then. I'd do it all over again.
Call Me Crazy -- Clapping erasers was a privilege at my elementary school, not a punishment. We always competed to see who would be chosen to clap erasers each week. It got us out of the classroom for a little while. Unfortunately, I was barred from eraser clapping. I have asthma and the chalk dust made me wheeze.
I could care less how many damn kids she has to support. If she was really worried about supporting them ...she would GO TO WORK. Instead of sewing puppets and shopping all day..such bullshit. She just wants a big payday for doing nothing. She would get paid for existing if she could. So don't give the public this sob story about having to support 8 kids because as of right now, shes not doing anything of the kind. Shes playing "housewife"....GET A JOB YOU LAZY CRAZY ASS..
TLC stinks: my thoughts exactly, that Kate put this out there, like the other hand holding story. I notice every year. What can she be an apprentice of? She is not good at anything and she does not finish anything or on time. And she is not authentic. She does know how to be a bitch & and a-hole, I'll give her that. She does live in her own little lala land.
Shes playing "housewife"....GET A JOB YOU LAZY CRAZY ASS.. March 8, 2014 at 1:43 PM ***** The funny thing, it always seems to be the women who give Kate a pass, "she's got 8 kids to support!!" and they excuse her using her kids for money. It's disgusting. All these women care about is Kate staying on tv, not the devastating possible side effects, which can be life long, btw, that the children will suffer. It's really sickening. They just gloss over these kids' lives being made public, being invaded and being born for the sake of entertainment.
Regarding the concert, wouldn't she have had that talk with the girls on the looong drive to the venue? We stay together, it's going to be crowded, we'll get mobbed, blah, blah, blah. With two adults there, one for each teen, what's the need for all the screeching? It's not like she brought all eight of them.
I seem to remember that TFW actually tried to muss The Donald's hair when she met him at some event. She thought she was being cute but I don't think The Donald or his wife were too pleased. TFW would only last through the first boardroom if the woman's team won. Those women can be pretty nasty. I doubt that she'd be allowed to have Steve around for any of the tasks because the show just doesn't work that way. If the stars could have a lackey around to do the work some of them would have done a much better job. She would be the type to quit citing a "family emergency" (she has 8 kids dontchaknow) if it got too hard and The Donald hates those that quit.
First concert: The Osmonds, Dec 1971 at The Forum in LA at the height of their popularity. So much screaming I couldn't hear for what seemed like days (of course I was one of them screaming, at age 13, lol). They made an album of the concert. Crazy about Donny Osmond and thought it was so cool we shared the same birthday, he only 1 year older. Even more exciting for me was getting to meet him in July 1973 at his family's apt complex in Provo, Utah.
Other concerts: The Carpenters in Anaheim, Jan 1973; several Neil Diamond concerts over the years and my crush for the last 9 years, Michael Bublè!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Unfortunately, at the time we didn't know that those days would end and we really didn't appreciate how much we'd want them back. If only we could have looked into the future and would have seen how truly great those times really were. We might have appreciated every minute of those Noxema, sunburned days.
Fleetwood Mac tour coming up soon. I think they talked Christine McVee into it. My goodness she will be 71 in July! Had a chance to see Stevie Nicks at Oak Mt. Theater but I hated leaving my kids and my ex had to work, so no bodyguard, purse boy there! I gave the tickets to my brother and his girlfriend, they had just got engaged and it was a wedding present. 20 years ago and the tickets were 125 for a pair.
Oh, I almost forgot! Paul Potts, of BGT in 2008, you can see him sing Nessa Dorma on youtube, his audition. Semi's he sings Time to Say Goodbye. Finals he sings Nessa Dorma and it is even better and I couldn't believe it could of been better! He is incredible! He is going to be in Atlanta in May. What I would give to be able to go. Just need a chair, ticket and an ambulance ride and some cash to buy something to eat!
That tweet from the girl who thought it was hilarious about Aaden crying about not getting his cupcake. Wow. I would love to slap the fire out of her right now and kate to boot. How horrible to make fun of a child like that and kate to punish them like that. I would never had done nothing like that.
B___Pants, your right about AuntieAnn giving kate the ol` one, two Zorro sign! One for TCDFWDAMMWC and one for USAMMDACDMOE!
TCDFWDAMMWC: The Crazy Divorced Former Wife Dating A Married Man With Children
USAMMDACDMOE: Uncle Steve A Married Man Dating A Crazy Divorced Mother Of Eight
I would love to see kate on CA to see her in her finest meltdowns ever! The kids would get a long deserved break from the warden and Jon could have them every day. About a day or two before she came back they would just about be blossoming more and happy and content and then here comes the plague. Back to square one.
I don't think these kids respect her or what she asks of them at all, this is but yet another example of them just not listening to her.
I am glad that they wouldn't say whatever it is she wanted them to say on the Today show, but if you think about it, it's just more disrespect for her. I think she asked them to say certain things on the Today show, and they wouldn't do it. Cara clearly went in there intending not to speak at all. It's defiance. In that case, it was a righteous defiance, but defiance is defiance and is a form of disrespect. Of course, she may deserve every bit of it. This is just a testament that authoritative parenting doesn't work. When kids get old enough to realize they don't have to listen to you and they're too big for you to beat up anymore, they may do exactly this, tell her go screw herself we'll do what we want. Without that respect there is no reason for a child their age to bother with her wishes for them.
That I am going to be the new reporter for the audience of DWTS this year. Had to have a bachelor's in Communications and Television (from a real college, kate) and graduate from the Arthur Murray Dance School in the past 2 years. Stiff competition. We were all given a letter to come to the ABC studios for the cattle call interviews and we heard about a woman who was at the security gate with a older man with white hair screaming to get in for the cattle call! Many witnesses heard her scream, Don't you know who I am? Ask Tom B. Ask L. Ask Carrie Ann! Um huh, ah, Don't you know who I am? I can crush you with a lawsuit by speed dialing my high priced lawyers!!!
Obviously, kate didn't get the cattle call letter, just like the not a letter from Playboy offering her to pose in Playboy! hahaha So funny when HH issued a statement that he did not offer her to pose for PB! I think he was mortified! hahaha
My first concert was Dino, Desi and Billy. I can't remember the exact date, but it was in Atlantic City. I had a huge crush on Dean Martin's son Dino. My parents took me and a friend. We were lucky to get very close to the stage. Although my parents stayed in the back because of all the screaming. They may have had one hit song and they didn't last long, but I thought Dino was so good looking it didn't matter. Dean Martin Jr. (Dino) was married to Dorothy Hamill and then Olivia Hussy (Romeo and Juliet was a good movie in the day). He died so young in an unfortunate military death, helicopter or plane crash. Desi was Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz's son. That was my first concert, the second was the Partridge Family. I have pictures sitting with some of them. I think they performed at my state fair. Unfortunately, these groups were not the Beatles, or the Doors, etc. Oh well, what can I say. I have attended some big name concerts after these.
NJ Gal mentioned Bruce Springsteen. I also saw him at the Stone Pony before he was famous and got to meet him. He also performed at my college before he became famous. My oldest son and his girlfriend met him at a bar in Belmar in 2012 and they said he was so nice, gave out autographs, free drinks, but he wouldn't allow anyone to take photos of him. There was some type of dedication to him in the town and that's why he was there.

*******
Me too Sandylove! In 1971. Except I was 10 and it wasn't LA. I was soooooo excited to see them. Huge Donny Osmond fan way back when :). Thanks for the memories!
I've been thinking about concerts I've been to, and there are quite a few! Some really stick in my memory: Janis Joplin in Hawaii in 1970. My favorite woman singer of all time! She was one of a kind Texas girl. On the front page of the paper, there she was...running her mouth about people trying to get her to pose in front of the plane she'd flown in on, and she wasn't as stupid as they thought...no free advertising the airline for her!! That woman can sing! I was heartbroken when she died.
Chuck Berry in Hawaii, I think it was also 1970...He was the opening act for someone I can't for the life of me remember..some guy alone w/acoustic guitar. When Chuck's set was over, people kept screaming for Chuck. He did another song, then the 'main attraction' took the stage, with people still stomping and yelling for Chuck, ignoring the man trying to sing. When the loud speaker said that ''Chuck Berry has left the building'' so did the audience!!
Ike and Tina Turner also in Hawaii in the early 70s, I think 1971...She was fantastic! She never left the stage and never stopped moving.
Van Morrison in Austin at The Armadillo World Headquarters in the 70s. I was about 7 feet from him and never took my eyes off him. My friends kept poking me and telling me to ''Take a breath!''
There are SO many: Ray Charles, The Temptations, Bob Seger, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Delbert McClintion, Bonnie Raitt, Jimmy Reed, BB King, Sly and the Family Stone, Willie Nelson, The Eagles, Buddy Guy. I took my girls to Three Dog Night in San Antonio (they were 10 and 8), and a friend took them to see The Osmonds in Hawaii, and also to see Elvis there (I refused to see 'fat Elvis') I'm sure as I hit publish, I will remember more!
Fired Up 4 Kate @MiloandJack 19m @Kateplusmy8 Alrighty there Miss Kate...you said "officially spring break"...did you mean "twitter break" too? :)
Ever think, Milo, that she might be taking a twitter break from pestering, annoying fans? I wonder how many times a day Milo DMs or e-mails Kate, wondering where she is and what she is up to.

)))))))))))))
Dino, Desi and Billy had approximately 20 singles and five or six albums. Billy is Billy HInsche, a heck of a nice guy, who was a session musician with the Beach Boys, and later toured with them. His sister, Annie, was married to Carl Wilson, one of the three Wilson (Beach Boys) brothers. Not long ago, one of his projects was putting together a documentary on Dennis Wilson, late Beach Boys drummer. He's still very much involved in the entertainment industry.
Cristina Rich @Sienna_Star 6m @Kateplusmy8 Talking about days flying by 2 months from Today the little kids will be 10 yrs old!!! I can't believe double digits!
Loving the flashbacks on first concerts. My first was at the Ohio State Fair, Dolly Parton! We were there that day and my parents loved her so we went! Was a USAF brat and we were stationed at Rickenbacker AFB.
My first choice concert was Supertramp at Exhibition Stadium in Toronto too. Saw someone else mentioned Exhibition Stadium and wondered if they ever went to any of the Police Picnics there? We went one year when James Brown was performing LOL it was, ummm, different that day, it was just an odd combo!
Many hated Exhibition Stadium, but I loved it for concerts; Supertramp, Styx, U2, Police, Bryan Adams, Bon Jovi, Elton John, ahhhh my teenage and young adult years!
One of the best concerts I have seen in recent years has been Paul Anka's show. If you get a chance, you don't want to miss that one. He's really *that* good.
I'm glad we got to Glen Campbell's Goodbye Tour last year. He struggled some, but managed to get through the show without too much difficulty...his children were there helping him out on stage. Daughter Ashley is quite talented on the banjo.
Upstater & Sandylove: That Osmond show from 1971, parts of it are on youtube. Donny singing Sweet & innocent, Yo-yo. Have you guys seen it? They also have some from a Japanese tour that was prior to the US tour, in 1971, it's audio only, but there is some from the Ohio state fair from 72or 73, this is just before Donny's voice changed, I think it was the last time he sang sweet & innocent. Just look up Sweet & Innocent: Donny Osmonds live on Youtube.
Fidosmommy, Harry Chapin! Damn I'm jellus. Every single time I hear one of his or Jim Croce's songs I tear up. Just get the kleenex out cause I'm done for.
Okay, I was seriously late to the concert scene. I'm just glad that I didn't wait so long as to need a walker. Adele, Riviera, Chicago, May 24, 2011. Amazing, truly that's the only way I can describe her live performances. It was close to my hubby's bday and he wanted to treat me. He'd never heard of her and could not believe her vocal talent. Though when she stopped singing and was just talking, I had to play interpreter ;) I love me some Adele.
I haven't even looked closely at the crash. I just can't especially when I've got a transatlantic coming up. I think I heard three fake passports were used and I don't know how in this day and age that can happen but god bless those poor souls.
n the end, CA is all about Celebrity connections & how much money you can convince them to donate in your name/honor. Money & connections do the talking on CA, nothing else does. I wanna watch her call in her "connections". does she have Bravo Andy on speed dial? no? does she know a T. Boone Pickens like Trace Adkins did? no? does she have all the folks from her show "network" to call on for donations? no? ****** For this reason alone, she would never make the final cut to become a contestant. She has no celeb connections, nor big money connections, and the producers would not bother with Kate - she's slim pickins'
Also, if she did dare to touch The Donald's hair - she'd never make the cut for that reason alone. Not sure if that story is true or not.
Of course, she may deserve every bit of it. This is just a testament that authoritative parenting doesn't work. When kids get old enough to realize they don't have to listen to you and they're too big for you to beat up anymore, they may do exactly this, tell her go screw herself we'll do what we want. Without that respect there is no reason for a child their age to bother with her wishes for them.
====
She might have started out with good intentions but when the money really started to come in and she got all the attention and so-called perks that come with fame, the sanctity of family got pushed further down the line. She had no respect for any of them, husband, children, parents or anyone.
I think Mady and Cara were very aware of it too early in the game. It was really apparent when Kate was having a meltdown at the Crayola factory. Cara said she wished it was just the four of them again. It was so sad. She knew what was going down, if not consciously, then just by all the big changes in her life. She's old enough now to figure it all out, as is Mady.
Unfortunately, at the time we didn't know that those days would end and we really didn't appreciate how much we'd want them back. If only we could have looked into the future and would have seen how truly great those times really were. We might have appreciated every minute of those Noxema, sunburned days.

Yes indeed, youth is fleeting. We took it for granted. I think every generation owns its own amber moments frozen in time. I remember my parents reflecting on their younger days and always talking about the good ol' days, even if I rolled my eyes and thought no way those were good times, but they were for them.
So nine of us piled into our friends tiny little 1969 Renault, our noses and foreheads smeared with Noxema for the three-hour drive home in the middle of the night, wriggling around, burnt, greasy, smelly and happier than pigs in a manure pile talking about the concert all the way home. __________________________
Auntie, what a wonderful memory! And you are right. When you're young, squishing 9 smelly people into a tiny car for a 3-hour ride is nothing but joyful. We didn't worry about pesky details like health and comfort and safety back then because we were invincible! I can't imagine doing many things like that at my age now. It would be misery! As I get older and more worn out, I just want to be as comfortable as possible!

Rhythm, I think the reason our younger days were so, so great is because we were so blissfully unaware that those times would end. We didn't have a care in the world. We lived in the moment and enjoyed our experiences without worrying about consequences! I would love to feel that way again for just a moment. Oh how youth is wasted on the young!!

Bitchy Pants - I hear you about kids liking to clap erasers when it got them out of class. It wasn't nearly so fun for anyone who was forced to stay after school to do it when they would rather have been out playing with their friends! Not that I would know anything about that, of course! :)
Yes, the story is true. I remember seeing TFW put her hand in The Donald's hair, and I remember his wife's shocked expression afterwards. I don't remember if I saw it in a video or a series of photos, but I saw it.
Wow, so many awesome concerts everyone has been to, such fun reading everyone's stories, over the next couple of days I am going to go back and write down every performer that has been seen, it will be an interesting, and long list! Grandee4, so glad to be part of a family! Wonder who the 3rd Morphay is here. Congrats on little nephew Milo, Mel, a precious little bundle to cuddle! I would love to watch tfw squirm on CA, it would be such great snark material, possibly more so than DWTS, would love to see her with her stink-eye in every conversation. I went to read over at Celebitchy, every single picture of her has the stink-eye, she does it so well. And there was a clip shown on one of the entertainment news shows, when she met Donald and Melania, and she did so reach out to tousle his hair! The both of the Trumps gave her a look that she should not have invaded their personal space, it was priceless, especially Mrs. Trump`s look! If all of these dumb sheeple continue asking for her to write a book about the way she runs her household, what the hell would they do if there was no tfw, just curl up and die when they could not figure it out on their own. If they want the 8 on t.v., see no problem with it, then why aren't they trying to put THEIR kids on t.v., and posters of their kids faces everywhere, so all pedophiles can view them.(ugh, lost my question mark!) If it is okay for the gosselin kids, why don't they do it with their own kids. Pay for ads in their local papers, put their kids faces in there! It makes me sick that they think these kids NEED to be on a t.v. screen, why! And laughing about Aaden and the cupcake, how does tfw feel to hear someone laughing about her son`s crying. I just can't figure those people out. They just seem to get stupider every day. Admin., I am proud to say that when my daughter did interviews, and had speeches to give, she did every single word herself, her dad and I never, ever told her what to say, and she also wrote her own speeches. Even though she was only 7 and 8, she knew what SHE wanted to say, with her thoughts and feelings, I would sit beside her, and not once did I ever need to tell her to `Say it, it`s your chance, spit it out!` Because her words came from her heart when she spoke, it was her deal, not mine, I was there to be her parent and provide safety and support. Shoot, guess I should have hired a bodyguard! Sorry, but I get very passionate about things pertaining to children. The only reason I brag about my daughter is because she is no longer living, I would never say things like this if she was still alive. And milo, you dipshit, why do you keep tweeting, it was you who said that you communicate with her thru other ways, not just twitter. You are a liar, just like your school girl-ISH crush! Done now:)
Oops, 1 more thing. Localyocal, the reason I never replied when you asked why they did not make the entire airplane from the black box material was because I figured you knew what you were talking about, and I was not knowledgeable about it like I thought you were, thought you were an engineer or something, way smarter than me, I was impressed!!
Me too Sandylove! In 1971. Except I was 10 and it wasn't LA. I was soooooo excited to see them. Huge Donny Osmond fan way back when :). Thanks for the memories! **************************************************************************** You're welcome! =) Glad to know I'm not the only Donny fan on here.
Getofftwitter: Yes, I knew there were videos on Youtube from the concert as I happen to watch them about 2 weeks ago, lol, so funny you mention them! An interesting tidbit, I read Donny's autobiography in 1999 and he talked about that concert, stating they were all sick, especially him and they were forced to use the album tracks, though to me, I wouldn't have ever noticed that!
I know this is off topic but, my husband and I drove by Katie's house Saturday morning for the first time. My husband had an interview in MD, so we went north and drove by. It is secluded and huge. You can barely see up the driveway, but you can see the side of the house. There are signs all over saying do not stop, no waiting, no pictures, etc, so my husband followed the law and would barely slow down. She is very close to a police station, I would say 5 minutes. The road is extremely narrow and winding and the next driveway after hers on the opposite side of the road has signs all over saying do not turn around in my driveway, so I assume alot of people have done that. I recognized the side view of the house immediately. No sign of anyone there. I was hoping to see someone coming or going, but like I said my husband would barely slow down. I did get some pictures though.
Yeah, Tfw is being eyed for CA alright...with the big ole stink eye. As in, ni way in hell lady.
I cannot imagine watching the cupcake episode and laughing. That's something my DIL would do. That's when I stopped watching. It broke my heart to see that episode. How mean. And to get your jollies from being so mean. Doing it because you can.
Talk about making memories. Not the kind I want to make.
Sleepless In Seattle said... 143 Kate has some really weird fans. Another foot fetish guy has shown up. What is it about Kate's feet that makes these guys slobber and drool?
As we've heard consistently from TFW's ardent sheeple...SIZE Does MATTER.
Realitytvkids.com (Administrator) said... 128 This is just a testament that authoritative parenting doesn't work --------------------------- Actually, authoritative parenting is recommended. It's authoritarian parenting that is bad news. If you read about the four major parenting styles: authoritative, authoritarian, permissive and uninvolved, it's clear Kate practices authoritarian.
More interesting is some of the issues caused by authoritarian parenting are the exact things Jon said the kids struggle with on Oprah. I know Jon stated that he felt being on TV gave the kids those issues, but based on articles on authoritarian parenting, Kate's parenting style is at least as much at fault if not much, much more.
I went back & looked at past CA winners, they are HUGE names with $$ connections, not all are loved by all but defiantly have the 'friends in high places' connection:
**Piers Morgan - Not loved by all but loved by liberal Hollywood and DC, he took Larry King's place for goodness sake!
**Joan Rivers - Again, not loved by all but have tons of her own money and has the connections. Even when shot down by Johnny Carson, built herself into a multi-million dollar brand and has obvious staying power.
**Bret Michaels - Handsome, charming, smart, knows how to sell himself and knows what the pulse of America is all wanting (was great at advertising). Everyone loves him, heck, even my 76 year old mom loves him.
**John Rich - Although maybe not a household name, if you know anything about the music industry, you know John Rich. VERY smart and very well connected.
**Arsenio Hall - I can't really speak of him b/c I didn't watch this season but I know he's been in show business a long time and has rebuilt himself after a fall.
**Trace Adkins - This man amazed me both times he was on. SO smart, has an awesome 'poker' face but you could tell his heart was so in it for his charity and has the Nashville $$ connection.
That being said, if KG got CA, I'd watch because it would be good TV but I'm not sure how long she'd last b/c she has no fundraising experience. Other than a local yard-sale, showing up at the Zumba fundraiser (and accepting freebies) and whatever TLC paid her to do (which is NOT charity).
On the other hand, she is a beggar in real life, lol. But free bella bars & toilet paper isn't going to cut it in Donald's boardroom, so she wouldn't last too long! But the kids won't be involved so if it's a way for her to make some money and a fool out of herself, I'm game.

Localyocal, the reason I never replied when you asked why they did not make the entire airplane from the black box material was because I figured you knew what you were talking about, and I was not knowledgeable about it like I thought you were, thought you were an engineer or something, way smarter than me, I was impressed!! ((((
Oh thank you. No, not an engineer. My freshman year roommate was an engineer major and could run math circles around me. She struggled with her English classes which I aced. Funny how different brains work. I did graduate wit ha 3.8 though. #Humblebrag
funny bunny @mbosser1 1h @Kateplusmy8 Kate I love your show , why did u stop ?
Don't you just love these sheeple? Let's see...Kate "stopped" because she was just tired of the whole "fame" thing. She wanted to be out of the limelight, back to being a "normal" mom, wanting her kids to have privacy and enjoy their childhood. She violated her contract with TLC because she wanted to put her children first, and even though the ratings were at an all-time high, she just pulled the plug on filming.

Do they give Uggs sandals on CA as one of the perks? If so, she's there.
Why do I have the feeling that it's almost about time for TFW to take a much-deserved (oy) trip, as a reward for surviving the snowy PA winter? And that trip won't include 8 little faces? Remember, this is a mother who admitted that what "works best" for her family is that she's with them one week, and away the next.

We see these comments over and over. Are there really this many people out there that ignorant about how T.V. works? The talent, and I use that term loosely, has absolutely nothing, whatsoever, to do with whether a show goes on the air, goes off the air, or how long it stays on the air. Sometimes the talent is not even TOLD a show is on or off the air. Kate is not a TLC executive, she is just another one of their long list of "talent" that they can throw on or off T.V. whenever they darn please.
Do they not understand the concept of "the powers that be" who control such things?
This is a very old tweet from Kate, I forgot what she was replying to, but it kind of speaks to her delusion. From everything we've seen she is incredibly lazy and Jon confirmed she is STILL relying on a nanny, which is ridiculous at this age and with her not working. But yet she thinks the following:
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 @IamSuz I'm totally capable of managing my own time&I'm betting I do more 4 my kids in a day then u do 4 urs in a week. Thanks4advice tho!
Not to mention, what happened to moms sticking together? Cutting down another mother and claiming you do more in a day for your kids than they do in a week is hardly supportive. In fact it's downright nasty.
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 @IamSuz I'm totally capable of managing my own time&I'm betting I do more 4 my kids in a day then u do 4 urs in a week. Thanks4advice tho!
That's a horrible comment. How would Kate possibly know how much that person does for her children in a week? What if the mother has a child or children with special needs, or if she home schools her children?
Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 @IamSuz I'm totally capable of managing my own time&I'm betting I do more 4 my kids in a day then u do 4 urs in a week. Thanks4advice tho! &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
IIRC, she wrote an entire blog post about how moms should support each other. I guess what she really meant is that moms were supposed to support HER.
She has a lot of nerve to make that snarky and condecending comment when in fact, nothing could be further from the truth. She has hired housecleaners and nannies, in addition to the mile long list of chores the kids are responsible for doing. The nannies are responsible for doing the bulk of the grocery shopping. Most mothers work full time jobs, grocery shop, cook and clean, run children to activities and practices and attend the activities and games. Kate sits on her butt all day, twitting and surely working the phones trying to get back on tv.
Thanks PrairieMary and TLC Stinks for confirming that Kate did indeed touch Donald Trump's hair.
"there was a clip shown on one of the entertainment news shows, when she met Donald and Melania, and she did so reach out to tousle his hair! The both of the Trumps gave her a look that she should not have invaded their personal space, it was priceless, especially Mrs. Trump`s look!"
It's not the "haters" who are preventing Kate from getting tv work - it's Kate herself. There is no way she'd even be considered for CA. Trump, like an elephant, will never forget that she dared to touch The Hair! I have a feeling that whoever is the current Mrs. Trump doesn't even get to touch The Hair.
If TFW appears on the next Celebrity Apprentice, they are surely picking the bottom of the barrel for contestants. Their ratings have been down and I predict TFW will not last very long. I wonder what her charity will be? She's not dedicated to anything that doesn't involve money coming her way. She'll probably make up her own charity that will primarily go to her if she's cast on the show. It is curious that Radar just had the story yesterday of her holding hands with Steve and now she may be participating as a contestant on CA. I'll believe this when I see it.
Hershey Med Center, NICU, of course. It would be a perfect excuse for her to bring up the past and further exploit the kids. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
That's a horrible comment. How would Kate possibly know how much that person does for her children in a week? What if the mother has a child or children with special needs, or if she home schools her children?
+++++++++++++++
That's been one of Kate's problems all along. She can't see the "what if," and just blurts out whatever she feels like saying at the moment. I don't know if it's because there's something in her brain that's not wired correctly, if it's because she's so immature emotionally (and intellectually challenged) or if she just doesn't care what she says and figures "you started it, and I'm giving it right back to you."
If I recall, that Kate time managment comment was a retort to someone who had either given her unasked for advice or called her out on Twitter. She simply cannot ignore that kind of thing. Classic responses include the juvenile "have a nice day ". I also find her an unlikely choice for CA given her lack of contacts, her lack of $$$ and the fact she doesn't work for any charity that does not have her name on it. Add in the fact that she is completely inarticulate without a script, and the knowledge that she comes with diva demands, whatever would they do with her.
Jennifer Hinebaugh @jennangel5 5h @Kateplusmy8 My 2 year old daughter pooped on the potty for the 1st time ever & I took a pic of it & instantly thought of you. Fondly. :)

I never saw any photo or video clip of Kate actually touching Trump's hair. I remember it was reported that she had done so, but I never saw any visual proof that it happened. I remember seeing a photo of Kate posing with Trump and his wife, Melania, after a Lady Gaga concert in 2010.
If such a photo or video exists of her actually touching his hair, I would appreciate it if someone could provide a link to it. I would love to see the look on his face.
Ah Noxzema just the name brings the smell back. However we never used it on a sunburn because it would make you peel and we could always tell who the weekend Bennies were by the amount of Noxzema slathered on their shoulders. It's an evening boardwalk smell that I'll never forget (along with popcorn, pizza, hot dogs and my absolute favorite pork roll!
Smoochie said..... My first choice concert was Supertramp at Exhibition Stadium in Toronto too. Saw someone else mentioned Exhibition Stadium and wondered if they ever went to any of the Police Picnics there? We went one year when James Brown was performing LOL it was, ummm, different that day, it was just an odd combo! ------------------------ I never went to any of the Police picnics at Exhibition Stadium (wasn't really into them) but lots of my friends did. I really liked going to concerts at the Ex. It was so much fun going to the CNE all day and then hitting a concert at night. I think it was the atmoshphere. You could see the ferris wheels and roller coasters still going while the concert was on. It was nothing but fun.
That's where I saw the majority of my concerts growing up and into my 20's. I saw Duran Duran, Pink Floyd, Eagles, Van Morrison, Elton John, Billy Joel, David Bowie, Wham, Pointer Sisters, Eagles, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Kim Mitchell (Max Webster), David Lee Roth, Santana, Steve Miller Band, ELO, Chicago. There were a bunch of 'smaller' bands as well. Wow-once I start thinking about it, it seems like all I did was go to concerts. Back then though concerts were nowhere near the prices they are today. You could actually go a concert, buy a black T-shirt and still afford the Go train ride home.
The last concert I saw a couple of years ago was my idol David Cassidy. As smarmy as it was, I loved every minute of it. Silly sidenote-The family that now resides in my old house in Toronto are called the Partridges.

Thanks4advice tho! ~~~~~~~~~~ I believe that in TCFW's mind, she multiplies everything she does times eight. For example, when she drives the kids to the bus stop, in her mind it is not one drive, but eight drives! No wonder she is so exhausted-ish!! !!!!!!
When TCFW floats the rumor that she is being considered for CA, it never occurs to her that when it does NOT happen she will be seen as once again failing to get herself on TV. Once again, she has exposed herself as the lying liar who lies. As has been said on this blog over and over for years, she can blame everyone else till the cows come home, but she and she alone is responsible for her failures. TCFW is just flat stuck on stupid.
OT: Posting this video to celebrate a milestone (and a win over St. Bonaventure). When a community comes together, it is a beautiful thing. I am back in Virginia to see my daffodils bloom and because the weather folks promise no more snow here. Everyone else from further north, send postcards from Key West!
Hang on to that pic there, Jennifer. Kate might hold another contest. _________________________________________________

LOL!! What would the winner receive this time? Kate could make copies of the photos she took of her kids' first poops, enlarge them, and have each child sign his/her own picture. #poops4pics
I'm still gobsmacked that someone tweeted TFW yesterday, laughing about the cupcake episode. That was a real little boy -- not Bobby Brady, or Urkel, or one of the Little Rascals. What in the world is wrong with these people? That hilarious line the fan tweeted...I only watched the episode once, but I can still remember the inflection. It was, like, are you kidding me? It's my birthday, and I don't get my cupcake? He was incredulous, as was I when I watched it. Surely it was a threat, and TFW would realize how cruel she was being. Of course, on the couch interview, she claimed the boys didn't even remember to ask about their cupcakes the next day. Now why don't I believe her?
Over In TFW's County - Is there any other brand besides Taylor's?! I've got some in my fridge right now and a pork roll & cheese is sounding like a fine Sunday night supper.
xxxxx @xxxxx 5h @Kateplusmy8 My 2 year old daughter pooped on the potty for the 1st time ever & I took a pic of it & instantly thought of you. Fondly. :) ----------- I tend to instantly think of Kate too when I see poop.
I am worried that rumour on ROL is true about Kate being on CA. Maybe if his ratings are down, he is considering bringing her on. It would be such negative publicity but people do seem to like watching the trainwreck, Kate Gosselin. It doesn't matter if she doesn't have a charity, she could figure one out pretty quick. She would see this as rebuilding her image to one of benevolence now. Giving back, instead of taking. Rich friends to donate to her charity? There is Deanna, Jason, Ted, Jamie, Steve, Terri, Bindi, Defective Detective (always makes me laugh, that name...) Sweetbren, AustinMartin, Paige, Footsniffer, who did I miss. Oh Gladys. Yup. I smell a new TV gig on the horizon.
Paper Plates - 99% of those friends that you mentioned are far from rich and TFW would not be able to raise any kind of significant money. Wy would the rumor worry you? I think you're giving her more credit than she deserves. Wy would she be a ratings boos over two years after her show was cancelled. When she was on DWTS she still had TLC backing her. What/who does she have now? There are only a small group of people that still follow what's going on with her...the twitter fans, the twitter non-fans and us. The twitter bots can't watch TV they can only retweet what they've been programmed to retweet and they're out in force today retweeting TFW's tweet about hating losing an hour in the morning. Whether she's on or not I'll watch the show because it's a not so secret vice of mine. It would just make it sweeter to have her on bad see her get bitched out by everyone. After seeing some of the reports coming out of DWTS I really don't think she'd be able to function at all in the CA environment. You have to face it, it's everyone for himself on CA. Lisa Lampanalli said it was one of the most stressful things that she's ever done and that you work 20 hours a day six days a week. So TFW on CA? Bring it on.
Paper Plates Forever! Yay! said... 186 I hear you! Ratings, etc. but I am thinking this is NOT going to happen. Probably her PR person putting out interest, in light of someone cancelled.(See Twitter right now.)
I have always had mixed feeling on Kate appearing alone without the kids because I think she is one of the most phoniest, inappropriate people and continues to use her kids non-stop on twitter/blogs,kids), but after putting her teens on TV, and wanting them to recite her "material," , it is fairly clear, she is a clearly a has been.
I honestly do not think she will get a spot on CA, after her antics with DWTS. On the other hand, she may be ratings bonanza, because she is "out of her element." has no charities (always about Kate needing something), now that TLC is no longer on board.
My guess is she will use Red Cross to try to get on the show, but to my knowledge, she never committed a penny to that or any organization. She put her freebee kids close in a consignment shop, time and again.
As such, have no idea how she would ever "raise funds" for charity, as she has continued to make herself the one "in need of funds." It is all about Kate keeping her mug out there, no matter what.
I don't think CA is for Kate...Just found out celebritys only get 16,000 for the first three weeks. I don't think it would be worth it to her unless shes pretty desperate. After taxes maybe shes good for another month of living expenses. I was shocked how little they get. possibly that's why she never said yes to doing it. She wants to make a killing you know. But she will get more exposure....like she needs it...but really not a big money maker....beggars cant be chosers
Taylor's. Oh, to be there right now for Boardwalk Fries, Mancos pizza and Johnson's caramel popcorn. _______________________
Absolutely Taylor Pork Roll! And a day on the boardwalk would not be complete without a Kohr's frozen custard (chocolate for me), a molasses or peanut butter paddle, and some salt water taffy!
A little late to the party but my first concert was in the summer of 1981 at the Yale Bowl, New Haven, CT, with my boyfriend (now husband) and one of his childhood buddies, to see the Eagles and a bunch of other groups. However, neither myself nor my husband, can remember any of the other groups.
I can't see TCFW on CA at this time. Maybe back in '09 when she had the support of TLC, the general public and had friends like the ladies at The View, The Today Show and People magazine. I would've thought if Donald Trump wanted TCFW, the Donald would've made the request back then. Can't see it happening now. I'm hoping she's been blacklisted because of her actions with the twins and The Today Show interview.
Completely OT but I'm going to teach myself how to quilt and I need advice from anyone out there. I figured since this blog topic has been mostly Kate being on CA (never gonna happen), first concerts that we attended, poop in the potty, Kate's bodyguard/boyfriend and penis size (I just threw that one in) I thought I would ask for some guidance. I know you're out there. HELP!
NJGal51 said... 188 Ok, maybe worried was the wrong word to use. I am disgusted thinking about this wanker getting on TV again. She is relentless and no doubt cooking up something.....there will always be Kate updates until the day she dies. That was a joke BTW saying that her 'friends' would come up with the cash. LOL.
Lalalalala said... 194 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am not a quilter but adore quilts! I admire your ambition. In my area the rec center offers a group ( no instruction) where people who quilt have a space and the tools (?) to do so and offer each other advice and help beginners. Maybe there is something like that in your area? Or a Quilters Association lol? I just was reading about this last night in the local flyer and thought it was a good idea. Not much help, but good luck!
IF TFW does appear on Celebrity Apprentice, it wouldn't surprise me if she first sets up a foundation in her name which foundatin would then "support" the charity of her choice (i.e. St. Jude's, Red Cross or whatever). The foundation would be her's to "administer" for remuneration of course.
Paper Plates - I realize that you were being sarcastic about TFW's monied friends, but I thought I'd point out to the fans that read here that she doesn't have any....monied friends that is that would step up to the plate with $10K checks!
Funnier 'n fiction: A group of strangers knocked on my door just now. A friendly-looking bunch, with big smiles & armloads of snack items and beer.
"Is Stephanie here?" a gentleman asked, when I opened the door. Um, no.
Apparently Stephanie lives much closer to me than the rest of you. That, or she moved out of her old neighborhood & gave my contact information as her forwarding address. :)
576 sediments (sic) from readers:
«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 576 Newer› Newest»And she made the point perfectly. "NOT ONE PERSON" in a crowd of "thousands of fans...armed w/cell phones/cameras" bothered to take a picture of Kate or the twins, with or without Steve. Done, over, finished.
Thank you "Fired Up 4 Kate" for pointing this out so clearly to her. Maybe coming from you, her true friend, she'll finally get that it's over.
--------------
Never underestimate the stupidity of Gladys Kravitz. She shoots herself in the foot every single time. She tries so hard to convince Kate and her fans that Kate is still relevant and loved world-wide, but all she ends up doing is showing that the opposite is true. You'd think by now that she would have learned.

We're not reporting that yet. Terrorism?
Guest what was on: CWS with Kate & 8, on Lifetime. I watched part of it, Kate is so full of sh1t. She stinks to high heaven. Couples should raise kids and share responsibilities equally, yeah Kate just like you did when you were married to Jon. Jon worked 8 + hours and came home and took care of kids, even though Kate had Nannies during the day to take care of kids. Yeah, that was equal responsibility. LOLOLOL
Kate is silent, cause she is probably meeting with the Irwins. Either the Irwins are at the house or Kate & 8 are in NYC. Pics soon to follow.
"They are just having sex!"

The Beatles-Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, August 1964.

Well everyone sit down. Noone can top that!
localyocul. I was there too! I was also blessed to have been able to attend The Ed Sullivan Show at CBS when the Beatles made their first appearance, Feb,1964.
My father was a New York City Police Officer at the time, he was on duty during both appearances and was able to get us in. What memories!
I lived in Forest Hills and graduated from Forest Hills High School. Did you ever shop at Ronnies?

Man I'm jealous. I was a big Beatles fan back in the 80s when I was in High School. They were and always will be the best
OK, Elvis and Janis Joplin are right up there with the Beatles. And speaking of the Doors, one of my friends dressed up as Jim Morrison for Hero Day in High School in the 80s. The nuns were not impressed.

First real concert: Deep Purple, 1973. It was an outdoor concert and prior to that show, it had rained buckets for days and days. We were quite literally thigh high in mud by the end of the night. It was also the first time I smo-... never mind.
Prior to that, my dad used to take me to Young People's Concerts with the city orchestra. My dad smoked Pall-Malls during those years. Little ashtrays in the arms of the seats, even.

Talking to your teenagers with your hands in a public auditorium? Isnt that called 'hitting'? And might be looked down on by normal folks in public? I had 2 teens and a toddler and it's true, however - my teens never heard from me again coz I had a todder in one hand. So sad.

First concert 1972, saw Chicago at the Hampton VA Coliseum.

It would only take one hand, actually one digit of one hand, for me to talk to Kate over a noisy crowd.
Long time poster- long time no post. (OG Kristine)
I adore the person, who asked if anyone ever saw Buddy Holly and the Crickets in concert. My mother grew up with 10 kids on a large farm in Minneapolis. She saved every penny to see her idol, Buddy on her 16th birthday and traveled to the event in Iowa with her high school pals, on that tragic day. She had no idea what news she would wake up to hear the next morning after she came home.
-----------------------------------------------------------
February 3rd, 1959: Within minutes of takeoff from the Mason City, IA Airport, at around 1:00 AM CST, the chartered Beech-Craft Bonanza airplane No. N3794N containing Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper crashes into the Iowa countryside, killing all three in addition to pilot Roger Peterson...
That was it. My mother's 16th birthday-- and very first concert. We are true Beatles/Elvis fans, so I can appreciate the Tennis venue story.
My first concert was here in L.A. It was Adam and the Ants, doing their Viva Le' Rock tour at the Greek Theatre. I was in the 6th grade and took a best friend and little sis and another BFFs brother, to pretend he was our personal Purse Boy. I've seen so many shows, and Nirvana Nevermind was incredible at the Forum. Depeche Mode about 100 times- sometimes a half dozen times a year.
**Waving to Shmecky**... Depeche Mode is still the BEST live concert, yet not my first.
nothing else is on TV right now, kids and hubby are all in bed while I finish up laundry. Watching bits of Khate's CW and she is a royal Bitch. I wish Hank had told her off. She needed to be slapped. I think she is just "jellus" that Kendra has a man that loves her and a lifestyle that Khate only dreams of having.

Sorry, posted as my twitter name again, don't want to be thought of as a drive-by or whatever!
So many of you have seen some pretty awesome concerts, you are so very lucky! I think geography matters, as where I grew up, there were rarely any big name groups. April Wine was in 1976, I was just about allowed to go, but then they cancelled. Even Perry Como would have been okay with me, I still have an old Christmas music cassette of his!
Goodnight all, have a great weekend, we are expecting temps above 0 all weekend, as long as the weather man is right.
1971 - Lexington, KY. Some famous band played. My first date on campus, freshman year. My date was as forgettable as the band. I think it was "Blood, Sweat and Tears". My date kept hollering "SPINNING WHEEL" while the warm up performer was on. Everything about that night was awful.
Everything but the warm up guy. Bill Withers. He was pretty good. A whole lot better than the featured band, I can tell you that. Too bad he got shouted off the stage by my date and others to make room for the Spinning Wheel guys.
I got a personal, in- the -car concert from Harry Chapin. I went with a friend to pick him up at an airport (no limo for him, an old, dented compact car was perfectly fine) and Harry played and sang for us between the bits of conversation. It was remarkable.
Localyocul, I guess your question was rhetorical. If not, you can't make the whole plane out of black box material because it would never fly. Way too heavy. They almost always get the black box back unless the water is too deep. There are also 2 black boxes, one for data and one for voice. The hope is at least one will be located and analyzed. However I do not remember if they got them back after 9/11 but that was a prolonged fire. In an explosion in the air the pieces come apart and it is less likely there is a prolonged fire for every element of the plane.
I do not mean to be ghoulish. It sounds like a terrible disaster and does not appear hopeful. It could be accidental or intentional. If it is intentional, this specific plane probably meant nothing. Often terrorists want to show they can do something, anything.
My first concert was Whitney Houston in Hershey when I was about 20. My parents would not take me to concerts and had no idea about popular music. I had little idea about popular music since I couldn't listen to any radio except one station until I was about 16. It was a serious disadvantage in junior high. But I wouldn't have wanted my mother with me at a concert anyway so I guess it worked out.
First concert was The Mothers of Invention with Frank Zappa. However I'm not sure it qualifies as a concert as it was in a coffee house called the New Penelope back in 1966. Large band, big sound, small venue in Montreal.
Best concerts were Bob Dylan and the Rolling Thunder Revue in 1975, Paul Simon's Graceland tour and Janis Joplin in 1970 all at the Montreal Forum.
First concert-Donovan in Boston in the early 1970s. Sweet memory.

Boston!
At 14- went with friends. I would have died of embarrassment if my Mom was there, let alone made a scene!
I adore the person, who asked if anyone ever saw Buddy Holly and the Crickets in concert. My mother grew up with 10 kids on a large farm in Minneapolis. She saved every penny to see her idol, Buddy on her 16th birthday and traveled to the event in Iowa with her high school pals, on that tragic day. She had no idea what news she would wake up to hear the next morning after she came home.
***********
Seriously? Oh, my gosh. Really? She actually saw Buddy at the Surf Ballroom during the Winter Dance Party tour? How special is that! If time travel were possible, I'd go back to that night to see that show with Buddy, Richie and the Big Bopper. I'd warn them not to get on the plane -- would hog-tie them down if I had to. It would be fascinating to see how the course of rock and roll would have evolved had that plane crash not happened.
I've never been to Clear Lake, Iowa, but it's on my bucket list to visit the venue on an anniversary of that last concert. Buddy was before my time, but what I would give to have been able to see one of his shows!
Speaking of plane crashes, news sources are still not confirming the fate of the Malaysia plane. No explosion is being reported, only that it's possible that it went down in the South China Sea.

LOL!! Does the word "bird" enter into this, and I don't mean Zorro?
I heard on the news that they said a American couple was on the Malaysia plane and a baby. They didn't make it clear if the baby was theirs or not. Lord, please be with them.
I remember when Pan Am 103 exploded over Ireland. They showed all the flowers at the crash site. There was some flowers there that had a card remembering a young girl that he sat next to on the plane. It said on the card that he was so sorry. The man had gotten off the plane to catch a different plane to go to London. The card was signed Love, Charles.
I have thought about that card all these years. When I hear about a plane crashing, I think about that card.
Wow, I knew I loved you guys, but I didn't know just how collectively COOL we all are!

@Kateplusmy8 Every mom knows they need both hands free to tell their teenagers not to run off. Hand holding story is ridiculous.

Kate and Steve couldn't have been holding hands because she needed her hands to talk to the twins? Was this from a sheeple or a non-fan who was snarking and being sarcastic? No sheep could be that dumb, could they? Then again, there was one recently asking if Kate used a pattern for the bird hat, so I guess they really could be this stupid.
Someone should keep a list of the dumbest things sheeple say. They're always good for a laugh.
I'm still laughing that people thought I was serious about the black box. C'mon! You people of cool concerts...you must know it was a George Carlin quote! LMAO

I've seen husbands and wives hold hands lots of times while out with their children. I guess they don't care if their teenagers run off? Once again, the lengths these people will go to defend TFW boggles the mind. And once you declare ROL as reputable, don't go cherry-picking what you do and don't believe about their stories.

There's some serious logic for you. Not.
Well, actually, my mom communicated with me- actually, and I to her- using Jazz Hands.
When needed, we used Naval flag signals.
Kate is rumored as a possible Celebrity Apprentice contestant:
http://radaronline.com/exclusives/2014/03/kate-gosselin-to-celebrity-apprentice/
It wouldn't surprise me in the least- let's see how the sheep spin her being away from her kids for a month. I hope Jon gets them the whole time.
Kate is not some big star that most people would recognize, so I agree with the poster that with the fan base at the concert, Kate and Steve just looked like any other couple. It just so happened someone who used to watch the show recognized the girls first and then Kate with her big mouth bitching at the girls gave herself away. I asked how come this person did not mention Steve and I guess someone tweeted her and described him. It must not been on this person's radar that Steve and Kate holding hands is a big deal after all her denials ( and I've never heard Steve deny anything).
I,too, remember years ago the rumor about Gina and Steve divorcing, but I don't think it was true. I don't even know if they are US citizens. And, the house is still in both their names as far as I can tell. Hell, I think he has not been faithful, but some wives put up with that crap or simply believe the husbands' denials. The guy is certainly considered by Kate more than an employee and part of the family (Uncle Steve). I mean, calling him Uncle Steve is a HUGH tipoff. It's a way to have the kids accept his participation in the family and frequent visits.
I am certain all will be revealed in the future. When a guy, who is not the husband, has a say so in how big a woman's fake breasts should be, it's more than a business relationship. Kate obviously wants to please him.
The only reason the whole relationship is fascinating to me has been her denials and Jon's intuition while he was married to Kate. There is an incredibly strong incentive to keep an inappropriate relationship under wraps because it would blow up her image. And Steve probably has no intention of marrying Kate even if his marriage to Gina is a sham. As long as a wife turns a blind eye, why not get a little on the side. It goes on all the time.
Just because Kate was a cold fish to a Jon does not mean she is like that with all men. If anything, she may have been promiscuous as a young woman.

According to the ROL article, Johnny Weir is also being considered for Celebrity Apprentice. Can you just imagine Johnny and Kate being on the same team? We all know how Johnny feels about Kate.
I've never really watched CA, but if Johnny and Kate were both on, that would definitely be "must see TV"!
When TFW is tweeting, she's using both her hands. And her head is down. But surely she never does that when she's with her kids, does she?

This probably explains her teasing tweet the other day about her being busy with phone calls. Whatever it takes to get her toothy mug on tv, kids or no kids. But wait...don't they donate their money to a charity or something (I've never watched the show)?
This should make for some great snarking.
Kate put that "out there" Im betting...I'll believe it when I see it!! Shes trying to create a buzz so someone will take notice. Not holding my breath with this nonsense. This is her usual MO...
I am a CA fan and watch every year and I would love to see TFW on it. From what various "celebrities" have said its one of the hardest things that they've done. You actually have to work and get something accomplished AND the money you earn goes to charity. She'd have to do it on her own, no kids, no purse boy. She would be eaten alive in the boardroom. Doesn't this rumor surface every year and nothing ever comes of it? I tend to thing that TFW's camp puts it out there hoping that someone in The Donald's camp will pick up on it and give her a call. Every year I still hope it's true though. Is she so narcissistic that she actually thinks she'd do we'll on the show? No work ethic, no creativity, no rich friends to tap in to for donations.....yes, I want to see her on the show.
I doubt if its true....Its her "people " trying to make her look relavent...If it was her sheep would just say "Kates supporting her kids"...thats a no brainer...no spin needed.

If she was going to be on the show...they would just announce it Not this "shes being eyed"...crap..reminds of the dating show fiasco. Her bags were practically packed. This is soooo planted, its ridiculous. Im exhausted from all her "maybe" shows. Now the bots will go crazy and nothing will come of it. What a surprise!!

These first concerts are bringing back so many great memories! My first was the 1964 Dick Clark Caravan of Stars (yes, I am *that* old!), with an all-star lineup including Gene Pitney (sigh), The Dixie Cups, The Shirelles, The Supremes & Jan and Dean (double sigh). I dreamed of seeing the Beatles, but would have been in fangirl heaven if I had been there for fidosmommy's private Harry Chapin concert.
Aww too bad. The one show I would like to see her on is CA. She'd be torn to shreds. We might even have seen Gordon Ramsay call her a donkey. Darn.

Nice quote from the article:
Kate’s fame may have faded fast but her sense of entitlement isn’t going anywhere.
If Kate gets on CA- great, just don't put a camera crew in the house ever again. We've always said "more power to Kate" if she wants to be a reality tv D-list staple.
I can really see Jon doing CA, too.
I hope he gets all of the kids while Kate's filming.
Dutch Tulip: I love your last line about TFW! Agree, totally.
Just a heads up that there is a rumor that I, FlimsyFlamsy, am going to be on Celebrity Apprentice. I am also rumored to be on Dancing With The Stars, Survivor, and Top Chef. By the way, I'm starting that rumor myself. Jump in with your own rumors about yourselves if you like. Travoltafying is sooo last week!
LOL, Kate on Celeb Apprentice? They'd have to reserve an extra seat at the table for Steve since he can't go anywhere w/o him. I can see it now, TFW whispering w/him before speaking, sending him out to do tasks while she masterminds her next step, hiding in closets when she doesn't feel like appearing while he explains - yeah, she'd be a great choice.
I guess it all depends on how desperately Donald needs someone to exploit/ridicule for show controversy whether she'll be offered a spot and then how desperate she is for money that she'd put herself into a position to be made a fool of. HA, Exploitation... it would be so fitting for Donald to do that to her! LOL Karma - her bite stings!

I thought Milo knew everything there was to know about Kate? Does she really think that Kate will "confirm" the rumor, just because she asked her to?
Funny, Milo asks Kate for confirmation about CA, but never asked Kate if she and Jon talked on the phone while he was filming CT.
As far as I remember, CA doesn't announce it's cast list until they actually start filming. So we won't have confirmation until at least next month, as most articles state that CA will start filming in the Spring.

Hang on to that pic there, Jennifer. Kate might hold another contest.
That 2014 CA cast list is not the official list but what was tweeted in January, so legitimately Kate can start the rumor that she is being considered (after her agent called that Kate is available no doubt, LOL). Of course she has to get her name out there because Jon snagged a show. I doubt she would get on considering The Donald is well aware she offers nothing but more of the same. Back in a January she was not even being considered but I wonder if somebody dropped out and Kate has applied for the spot. That makes sense to me. Anyone know the date of their normal official announcement?
More great concert memories coming in!
Well, another big swing and a miss for Kate on CA.
The sheep just aren't bleating loud enough!
Sounds like Kate was ducking away from the tweeter trying to get a photo. The account sounds totally believable and the tweeter had witnesses. I don't see any reason for this person to lie about the hand holding. Wow! So close to photographic proof!
By sheep logic, since there is no pic of TFW holding hands with SN, it never happened. By that logic, she was never even at the concert since there are no pics of her. Yet TFW tweeted about it. I wonder how many of them have even a high school diploma.
I don't see CA ever happening for Kate. I'm sure The Donald would love another Omorosa like angle- the problem is the money. Kate has been Kate's charity since 2004. I'm sure she wants a DWTS salary. There's just no way she would do the show and give any money she generates to an actual charity. And ITA with Carole, how will she be able to go out in public and interact with other contestants with Steve attached to her hip? She's too much drama, too much baggage, too much trouble. Not worth the aggravation.

Does this mean there is still a chance she could be picked? I thought at one time she said she had been approached. Maybe she declined. I mean how many times does she want to hear "Kate, you're FIRED"?
How dare you think that Kate was holding hands with Steve? She needs her hands free to snap her fingers and clap at the twins.

I highly doubt TFMJG will be on CA. She's too lazy, too unmotivated, too stupid, too selfish, too insular. But if by some chance she should be, Admin would have a field day doing the recaps!
Auntie Ann -- If you have both hands free, you can double the bird!
I guess since Gladys didn't get an answer from Kate about smoking, she wasn't going to ask about the hand holding rumor, or CA. If she and Kate are as close as two snugglebugs, she'd know about CA and she'd never, in a million years, be able to keep it a secret. Milo would have given hints (in code) on Twitter. She didn't even know that Kate was a concert. Milo is really slipping up on the job.

I hope Kate gets CA. And hope she lasts long enough to become project manager. Now that will be great tv. Watching her try & talk her way thru the boardroom when she has NO rich connections to call in. It would be epic!
In the end, CA is all about Celebrity connections & how much money you can convince them to donate in your name/honor. Money & connections do the talking on CA, nothing else does. I wanna watch her call in her "connections". does she have Bravo Andy on speed dial? no? does she know a T. Boone Pickens like Trace Adkins did? no? does she have all the folks from her show "network" to call on for donations? no?
EPIC tv!
I wonder if Kate won't get picked for CA because she really has no celebrity pull when it comes to raising money.
Who is she going to ask for donations? The thousands of church-going Christians she fleeced for years?
The celebs on CA generally have enough good will built up so that they can call on wealthy friend and colleagues to pony up some serious cash.
Kate will also get a good deal of shite from cast mates if she's got Steve tagging along everywhere they go.
I can't see allowing him around- she'd have an unfair advantage.
Aaden crying for his BIRTHDAY cupcake is such good entertainment!!!!!!!
I can imagine that sheep is shoveling buttered popcorn down her greasy maw and wiping her bloated fingers on her Clay Aiken t-shirt, and she guffaws at the boob tube.

ITA I'd love to see Kate on CA. The woman can fake very little and she's extremely lazy. Radar Online is saying Johnny Wier may be on too. Now THAT would be worth watching! He'll rip Kate a new one and he's very smart too. She's dumb as a box of rocks.

One of the big aspects of being on CA is the ability to draw in big donors. A lot of the challenges involve calling up friends and contacts who have deep pockets and soliciting donations from them for your team. Who could Kate tap? She has no friends, and her only acquaintances would be her make-up person Deanna, and her twitter fans such as Milo. None of them have any significant money to donate.
However, I would love to see Kate on CA and am keeping my fingers crossed that it happens. It would be quite interesting to watch and see if she could make it past the first episode. Her boobyguard would not be allowed to attend with her and she'd have to interact with the other contestants (or not - imagine the unlimited opportunities for social awkwardness!).
However, there are so many other celebrities and recent Olympic sports stars out there to choose from, that I doubt Kate would even be considered. She's yesterday's news.
There's talk regarding the downed 777 from China that 2 of the passengers had stolen passports.
This is getting frightening.
The only reason the whole relationship is fascinating to me has been her denials and Jon's intuition while he was married to Kate. There is an incredibly strong incentive to keep an inappropriate relationship under wraps because it would blow up her image. And Steve probably has no intention of marrying Kate even if his marriage to Gina is a sham. As long as a wife turns a blind eye, why not get a little on the side. It goes on all the time.
********************
I find it interesting also that some people will tear Jon down for dating what they consider a lot of women, or going out to bars and having some drinks and chatting up women, but don't seem bothered by Kate's relationship with Steve.
Jon is single. The women he has dated were all single at that time. Yet Kate began this twisted relationship with Steve while still married to Jon. While she is now divorced, Steve is still married. But somehow, that relationship gets ignored.
As I said, it's just interesting that dating while single gets much criticism, while Kate and her married "body guard" seem to get excused away.
However, there are so many other celebrities and recent Olympic sports stars out there to choose from, that I doubt Kate would even be considered. She's yesterday's news.

So true. The pool of D-list celebs has multiplied exponentially since say the birth of The Real World. They were a rare breed and really were much closer to a celeb than these dime-a-dozen TLC has beens.
My first concert experience was seeing Pablo Cruise at the local fairgrounds. I had to leave early because I had a curfew that my mom strictly enforced, and I felt very uncool! Still, it was fun while it lasted. Don't know how widely known Pablo Cruise were - they only had one album as far as I know and might have been a California band only.

Ha! TM, your suggestion reminded me of how I got to go to The Grass Roots concert. I was in 7th grade at a Catholic school when a new, young priest was assigned to the parish. All the school kids thought he was very cool. He drove a Volkswagen Beetle, so he decided to hold a contest to see who could cram more people into his car - the 7th grade boys or girls. The winning team would get a prize.
Well, the boys just all jumped in willy, nilly - arms and legs flying. They managed to get in about 20 guys. We girls, on the other hand, planned out how everyone would sit or lie down, and we were able to fit 32 people in! So we won the contest and Father Tom took us to the mini-concert and Phillies game. I remember there was also a hot-pants contest before the game, and one of my classmates was a runner up.
Wow. I haven't thought of that story in more than 40 years! I love this blog.

It seems we have these conversations every season before the CA cast is announced.

Now that will be great tv. Watching her try & talk her way thru the boardroom when she has NO rich connections to call in. It would be epic!

Talk? As in communicate? Um, um. um, in all honesty, um, uh, honestly, um, um...
Of course, since she wouldn't be holding hands with Purse Boy, she'd have two hands to flap around. She could communicate that way.
Flimsy Flamsy, I have started a rumor that I will be on Amazing Race! Can't wait to get Philiminated! Rumor had it that my Amazing Race partner will be George Clooney! It's a rumor I started so it must be true!
Mel, congrats on the new nephew, try not to think of that other person with the same name.
Prairie, my Trav name is Charlotte Morphay, I think someone else posted the same.
First concert,Elvis around 1955 with my mom and my older sis. Before we left I could not find my cat so all I wanted to do is get home and see my kitty. As soon as we got home and I went into the closet to put my shoes away, there was my baby all cuddled up in a nice cozy bed he made himself on top of a basket of clothes. My sis hated that cat so I still think she was the last one in the closet, lol. She will die laughing when I tell her I posted that here.
Other concerts, Kenny Rogers, Kool and the Gang and Capt and Tannell at Endymion Extravaganza (a Mardi Gras parade that rolls before Fat Tues and a huge event in New Orleans Superdome).
KC and the Sunshine in the Dome. New Orleans.
My favorite was Celine Dion in Vegas 2006, what a show she put on. Tickets ran over $200 but worth every penny. Went with nurse friends and when we went back in 2008 (we try to do Vegas every 2 years, we all worked together before Katrina and try to keep the Vegas thing as a mini reunion), Elton had replaced Celine but we didn't have advanced purchased tickets, bummer.
Does anyone have a Bucket Concert List?
I want to see ABBA Museum in Sweden, anyone been there?
The Beatles played in 1964 at City Park Stadium in New Orleans, I was in 10th grade and had a car but no money for tickets, so my friends and I went and sat in driveway by my aunts house and listened from there. Worked for us.
Grandee asked, "Does anyone have a Bucket Concert List?"
----------------------
I had one, but it's too late. I always wanted to see John Denver in concert, but it never happened. If you have an entertainer on your bucket list, and the opportunity is there, don't put it off. You just never know...
concerts: Madonna, Celine Dion, Neil Diamond. :)

Father Tom took us to the mini-concert and Phillies game. I remember there was also a hot-pants contest before the game, and one of my classmates was a runner up.
Wow. I haven't thought of that story in more than 40 years! I love this blog.
******
I have had SO many memories come up through this blog.
I love your story.
I don't think we ever had a priest that cool in Catholic school. A bunch of crabby nuns, sure...
Typical Kate. She has to put it out there she's being eyed for CA EVERY season. Not a chance. And I do not want her mug on TV ever again.
This just a stunt to get her fans to write in their support to have her in the show, nothing more .
Millicent, the difference between Jon and Kate is Jon is open about his relationships but Kate and Steve have a lot to lose if they are caught. Nobody is glossing over anything. They just haven't been caught but the hand holding was sloppy. Who knows? There may very well be a tabloid hot on their tail as we speak.
A lot of people have affairs so the only reason I can come up with for keeping it so secret is that what is left of her fans will desert her as a home wrecker. She will be seen for what she is: a liar. Dating a married man is taboo. And who knows what facts come out about her being involved with Steve while married to Jon. It's a nasty can of worms.

Oh, Travis Meems! We had plenty of crabby nuns as well! My personal faves were the ones who liked to rap kids on the knuckles with a ruler. And kids who misbehaved had the distinct pleasure of staying after school to clap the erasers. They would get in even more trouble when they "clapped" them outside against the brick walls and left chalk marks all over the brick. Ah, good times!
The reason I don't want her on TV is that it will confirm in her mind she is still relevant, and therefore will continue to scheme ways to involve the kids.

Well, the boys just all jumped in willy, nilly - arms and legs flying. They managed to get in about 20 guys. We girls, on the other hand, planned out how everyone would sit or lie down, and we were able to fit 32 people in! So we won the contest and Father Tom took us to the mini-concert and Phillies game

You just made me recall when we went to Festival Express. We had been sitting in the middle of a football field 12 hours a day for 2 days baking, roasting, and finally burning in the hot sun, listening to all these great bands. When it was over we had picked up a couple of people needing a ride back to our town (hippie days were a blast). So nine of us piled into our friends tiny little 1969 Renault, our noses and foreheads smeared with Noxema for the three-hour drive home in the middle of the night, wriggling around, burnt, greasy, smelly and happier than pigs in a manure pile talking about the concert all the way home.
What a sight we must have been. At least the smell of the Noxema overpowered our BO. We had great times back then. I'd do it all over again.
When Kate and Steve come out, Kate will insist that nothing happened until he and Gina separated.
Then she'll pitch a new show.
Call Me Crazy -- Clapping erasers was a privilege at my elementary school, not a punishment. We always competed to see who would be chosen to clap erasers each week. It got us out of the classroom for a little while. Unfortunately, I was barred from eraser clapping. I have asthma and the chalk dust made me wheeze.
I could care less how many damn kids she has to support. If she was really worried about supporting them ...she would GO TO WORK. Instead of sewing puppets and shopping all day..such bullshit. She just wants a big payday for doing nothing. She would get paid for existing if she could. So don't give the public this sob story about having to support 8 kids because as of right now, shes not doing anything of the kind. Shes playing "housewife"....GET A JOB YOU LAZY CRAZY ASS..
TLC stinks: my thoughts exactly, that Kate put this out there, like the other hand holding story. I notice every year. What can she be an apprentice of? She is not good at anything and she does not finish anything or on time. And she is not authentic. She does know how to be a bitch & and a-hole, I'll give her that. She does live in her own little lala land.
Shes playing "housewife"....GET A JOB YOU LAZY CRAZY ASS..

The funny thing, it always seems to be the women who give Kate a pass, "she's got 8 kids to support!!" and they excuse her using her kids for money.
It's disgusting. All these women care about is Kate staying on tv, not the devastating possible side effects, which can be life long, btw, that the children will suffer.
It's really sickening.
They just gloss over these kids' lives being made public, being invaded and being born for the sake of entertainment.
If this comes to pass, I'd love to see Wendy Williams on her team.
Regarding the concert, wouldn't she have had that talk with the girls on the looong drive to the venue? We stay together, it's going to be crowded, we'll get mobbed, blah, blah, blah. With two adults there, one for each teen, what's the need for all the screeching? It's not like she brought all eight of them.
I seem to remember that TFW actually tried to muss The Donald's hair when she met him at some event. She thought she was being cute but I don't think The Donald or his wife were too pleased. TFW would only last through the first boardroom if the woman's team won. Those women can be pretty nasty. I doubt that she'd be allowed to have Steve around for any of the tasks because the show just doesn't work that way. If the stars could have a lackey around to do the work some of them would have done a much better job. She would be the type to quit citing a "family emergency" (she has 8 kids dontchaknow) if it got too hard and The Donald hates those that quit.
First concert: The Osmonds, Dec 1971 at The Forum in LA at the height of their popularity. So much screaming I couldn't hear for what seemed like days (of course I was one of them screaming, at age 13, lol). They made an album of the concert. Crazy about Donny Osmond and thought it was so cool we shared the same birthday, he only 1 year older. Even more exciting for me was getting to meet him in July 1973 at his family's apt complex in Provo, Utah.
Other concerts: The Carpenters in Anaheim, Jan 1973; several Neil Diamond concerts over the years and my crush for the last 9 years, Michael Bublè!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Unfortunately, at the time we didn't know that those days would end and we really didn't appreciate how much we'd want them back. If only we could have looked into the future and would have seen how truly great those times really were. We might have appreciated every minute of those Noxema, sunburned days.
CBList:
Fleetwood Mac tour coming up soon. I think they talked Christine McVee into it. My goodness she will be 71 in July! Had a chance to see Stevie Nicks at Oak Mt. Theater but I hated leaving my kids and my ex had to work, so no bodyguard, purse boy there! I gave the tickets to my brother and his girlfriend, they had just got engaged and it was a wedding present. 20 years ago and the tickets were 125 for a pair.
Oh, I almost forgot! Paul Potts, of BGT in 2008, you can see him sing Nessa Dorma on youtube, his audition. Semi's he sings Time to Say Goodbye. Finals he sings Nessa Dorma and it is even better and I couldn't believe it could of been better! He is incredible! He is going to be in Atlanta in May. What I would give to be able to go. Just need a chair, ticket and an ambulance ride and some cash to buy something to eat!
That tweet from the girl who thought it was hilarious about Aaden crying about not getting his cupcake. Wow. I would love to slap the fire out of her right now and kate to boot. How horrible to make fun of a child like that and kate to punish them like that. I would never had done nothing like that.
B___Pants, your right about AuntieAnn giving kate the ol` one, two Zorro sign! One for TCDFWDAMMWC and one for USAMMDACDMOE!
TCDFWDAMMWC: The Crazy Divorced Former Wife Dating A Married Man With Children
USAMMDACDMOE: Uncle Steve A Married Man Dating A Crazy Divorced Mother Of Eight
I would love to see kate on CA to see her in her finest meltdowns ever! The kids would get a long deserved break from the warden and Jon could have them every day. About a day or two before she came back they would just about be blossoming more and happy and content and then here comes the plague. Back to square one.
I don't think these kids respect her or what she asks of them at all, this is but yet another example of them just not listening to her.
I am glad that they wouldn't say whatever it is she wanted them to say on the Today show, but if you think about it, it's just more disrespect for her. I think she asked them to say certain things on the Today show, and they wouldn't do it. Cara clearly went in there intending not to speak at all. It's defiance. In that case, it was a righteous defiance, but defiance is defiance and is a form of disrespect. Of course, she may deserve every bit of it. This is just a testament that authoritative parenting doesn't work. When kids get old enough to realize they don't have to listen to you and they're too big for you to beat up anymore, they may do exactly this, tell her go screw herself we'll do what we want. Without that respect there is no reason for a child their age to bother with her wishes for them.

@Kateplusmy8 Keep your head up
=================
As opposed to keeping her head down to look for Milo, who is somewhere in Kate's rear end along with the stick?
Rumor about me.
That I am going to be the new reporter for the audience of DWTS this year. Had to have a bachelor's in Communications and Television (from a real college, kate) and graduate from the Arthur Murray Dance School in the past 2 years. Stiff competition. We were all given a letter to come to the ABC studios for the cattle call interviews and we heard about a woman who was at the security gate with a older man with white hair screaming to get in for the cattle call! Many witnesses heard her scream, Don't you know who I am? Ask Tom B. Ask L. Ask Carrie Ann! Um huh, ah, Don't you know who I am? I can crush you with a lawsuit by speed dialing my high priced lawyers!!!
Obviously, kate didn't get the cattle call letter, just like the not a letter from Playboy offering her to pose in Playboy! hahaha So funny when HH issued a statement that he did not offer her to pose for PB! I think he was mortified! hahaha
P.S., Don't forget to Spring Forward tonight!
Ugh- we have puppy class orientation tomorrow morning at 9am... great....
My first concert was Dino, Desi and Billy. I can't remember the exact date, but it was in Atlantic City. I had a huge crush on Dean Martin's son Dino. My parents took me and a friend. We were lucky to get very close to the stage. Although my parents stayed in the back because of all the screaming. They may have had one hit song and they didn't last long, but I thought Dino was so good looking it didn't matter. Dean Martin Jr. (Dino) was married to Dorothy Hamill and then Olivia Hussy (Romeo and Juliet was a good movie in the day). He died so young in an unfortunate military death, helicopter or plane crash. Desi was Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz's son. That was my first concert, the second was the Partridge Family. I have pictures sitting with some of them. I think they performed at my state fair. Unfortunately, these groups were not the Beatles, or the Doors, etc. Oh well, what can I say. I have attended some big name concerts after these.
NJ Gal mentioned Bruce Springsteen. I also saw him at the Stone Pony before he was famous and got to meet him. He also performed at my college before he became famous. My oldest son and his girlfriend met him at a bar in Belmar in 2012 and they said he was so nice, gave out autographs, free drinks, but he wouldn't allow anyone to take photos of him. There was some type of dedication to him in the town and that's why he was there.
I don't think these kids respect her or what she asks of them at all, this is but yet another example of them just not listening to her.

I have thought this ever since RV breakdown when they visit yellow stone-(my mom said it actually) that M&C have no respect for Kate.
How can they she treats them with no respect at all so why should they give it.

Me too Sandylove! In 1971. Except I was 10 and it wasn't LA. I was soooooo excited to see them. Huge Donny Osmond fan way back when :). Thanks for the memories!

-------------------------------------------------------
And there it is.
In a nutshell.
I've been thinking about concerts I've been to, and there are quite a few! Some really stick in my memory:
Janis Joplin in Hawaii in 1970. My favorite woman singer of all time! She was one of a kind Texas girl. On the front page of the paper, there she was...running her mouth about people trying to get her to pose in front of the plane she'd flown in on, and she wasn't as stupid as they thought...no free advertising the airline for her!! That woman can sing! I was heartbroken when she died.
Chuck Berry in Hawaii, I think it was also 1970...He was the opening act for someone I can't for the life of me remember..some guy alone w/acoustic guitar. When Chuck's set was over, people kept screaming for Chuck. He did another song, then the 'main attraction' took the stage, with people still stomping and yelling for Chuck, ignoring the man trying to sing. When the loud speaker said that ''Chuck Berry has left the building'' so did the audience!!
Ike and Tina Turner also in Hawaii in the early 70s, I think 1971...She was fantastic! She never left the stage and never stopped moving.
Van Morrison in Austin at The Armadillo World Headquarters in the 70s. I was about 7 feet from him and never took my eyes off him. My friends kept poking me and telling me to ''Take a breath!''
There are SO many: Ray Charles, The Temptations, Bob Seger, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Delbert McClintion, Bonnie Raitt, Jimmy Reed, BB King, Sly and the Family Stone, Willie Nelson, The Eagles, Buddy Guy. I took my girls to Three Dog Night in San Antonio (they were 10 and 8), and a friend took them to see The Osmonds in Hawaii, and also to see Elvis there (I refused to see 'fat Elvis') I'm sure as I hit publish, I will remember more!

@Kateplusmy8 Alrighty there Miss Kate...you said "officially spring break"...did you mean "twitter break" too? :)
Ever think, Milo, that she might be taking a twitter break from pestering, annoying fans? I wonder how many times a day Milo DMs or e-mails Kate, wondering where she is and what she is up to.
"My first concert was Dino, Desi and Billy. I can't remember the exact date, but it was in Atlantic City. I had a huge crush on Dean Martin's son Dino. My parents took me and a friend.

)))))))))))))
Dino, Desi and Billy had approximately 20 singles and five or six albums. Billy is Billy HInsche, a heck of a nice guy, who was a session musician with the Beach Boys, and later toured with them. His sister, Annie, was married to Carl Wilson, one of the three Wilson (Beach Boys) brothers. Not long ago, one of his projects was putting together a documentary on Dennis Wilson, late Beach Boys drummer. He's still very much involved in the entertainment industry.
You're right -- Dino was a charmer! :-)

@Kateplusmy8 Talking about days flying by 2 months from Today the little kids will be 10 yrs old!!! I can't believe double digits!
Is today March 10? :-)
Loving the flashbacks on first concerts. My first was at the Ohio State Fair, Dolly Parton! We were there that day and my parents loved her so we went! Was a USAF brat and we were stationed at Rickenbacker AFB.
My first choice concert was Supertramp at Exhibition Stadium in Toronto too. Saw someone else mentioned Exhibition Stadium and wondered if they ever went to any of the Police Picnics there? We went one year when James Brown was performing LOL it was, ummm, different that day, it was just an odd combo!
Many hated Exhibition Stadium, but I loved it for concerts; Supertramp, Styx, U2, Police, Bryan Adams, Bon Jovi, Elton John, ahhhh my teenage and young adult years!
One of the best concerts I have seen in recent years has been Paul Anka's show. If you get a chance, you don't want to miss that one. He's really *that* good.
I'm glad we got to Glen Campbell's Goodbye Tour last year. He struggled some, but managed to get through the show without too much difficulty...his children were there helping him out on stage. Daughter Ashley is quite talented on the banjo.
Upstater & Sandylove: That Osmond show from 1971, parts of it are on youtube. Donny singing Sweet & innocent, Yo-yo. Have you guys seen it? They also have some from a Japanese tour that was prior to the US tour, in 1971, it's audio only, but there is some from the Ohio state fair from 72or 73, this is just before Donny's voice changed, I think it was the last time he sang sweet & innocent. Just look up Sweet & Innocent: Donny Osmonds live on Youtube.
Kate has some really weird fans. Another foot fetish guy has shown up. What is it about Kate's feet that makes these guys slobber and drool?
Fidosmommy, Harry Chapin! Damn I'm jellus. Every single time I hear one of his or Jim Croce's songs I tear up. Just get the kleenex out cause I'm done for.
Okay, I was seriously late to the concert scene. I'm just glad that I didn't wait so long as to need a walker. Adele, Riviera, Chicago, May 24, 2011. Amazing, truly that's the only way I can describe her live performances. It was close to my hubby's bday and he wanted to treat me. He'd never heard of her and could not believe her vocal talent. Though when she stopped singing and was just talking, I had to play interpreter ;) I love me some Adele.
I haven't even looked closely at the crash. I just can't especially when I've got a transatlantic coming up. I think I heard three fake passports were used and I don't know how in this day and age that can happen but god bless those poor souls.
n the end, CA is all about Celebrity connections & how much money you can convince them to donate in your name/honor. Money & connections do the talking on CA, nothing else does. I wanna watch her call in her "connections". does she have Bravo Andy on speed dial? no? does she know a T. Boone Pickens like Trace Adkins did? no? does she have all the folks from her show "network" to call on for donations? no?
******
For this reason alone, she would never make the final cut to become a contestant. She has no celeb connections, nor big money connections, and the producers would not bother with Kate - she's slim pickins'
Also, if she did dare to touch The Donald's hair - she'd never make the cut for that reason alone. Not sure if that story is true or not.

====
She might have started out with good intentions but when the money really started to come in and she got all the attention and so-called perks that come with fame, the sanctity of family got pushed further down the line. She had no respect for any of them, husband, children, parents or anyone.
I think Mady and Cara were very aware of it too early in the game. It was really apparent when Kate was having a meltdown at the Crayola factory. Cara said she wished it was just the four of them again. It was so sad. She knew what was going down, if not consciously, then just by all the big changes in her life. She's old enough now to figure it all out, as is Mady.
Like Chef said...Kate's got it coming.

Yes indeed, youth is fleeting. We took it for granted. I think every generation owns its own amber moments frozen in time. I remember my parents reflecting on their younger days and always talking about the good ol' days, even if I rolled my eyes and thought no way those were good times, but they were for them.
Good grief. I'm getting all 'sedimental' now.
Do they even make Noxema anymore?
So nine of us piled into our friends tiny little 1969 Renault, our noses and foreheads smeared with Noxema for the three-hour drive home in the middle of the night, wriggling around, burnt, greasy, smelly and happier than pigs in a manure pile talking about the concert all the way home.
__________________________
Auntie, what a wonderful memory! And you are right. When you're young, squishing 9 smelly people into a tiny car for a 3-hour ride is nothing but joyful. We didn't worry about pesky details like health and comfort and safety back then because we were invincible! I can't imagine doing many things like that at my age now. It would be misery! As I get older and more worn out, I just want to be as comfortable as possible!

_____________________________
Rhythm, I think the reason our younger days were so, so great is because we were so blissfully unaware that those times would end. We didn't have a care in the world. We lived in the moment and enjoyed our experiences without worrying about consequences! I would love to feel that way again for just a moment. Oh how youth is wasted on the young!!

Bitchy Pants - I hear you about kids liking to clap erasers when it got them out of class. It wasn't nearly so fun for anyone who was forced to stay after school to do it when they would rather have been out playing with their friends! Not that I would know anything about that, of course! :)
Yes, the story is true. I remember seeing TFW put her hand in The Donald's hair, and I remember his wife's shocked expression afterwards. I don't remember if I saw it in a video or a series of photos, but I saw it.
Wow, so many awesome concerts everyone has been to, such fun reading everyone's stories, over the next couple of days I am going to go back and write down every performer that has been seen, it will be an interesting, and long list!
Grandee4, so glad to be part of a family! Wonder who the 3rd Morphay is here.
Congrats on little nephew Milo, Mel, a precious little bundle to cuddle!
I would love to watch tfw squirm on CA, it would be such great snark material, possibly more so than DWTS, would love to see her with her stink-eye in every conversation. I went to read over at Celebitchy, every single picture of her has the stink-eye, she does it so well. And there was a clip shown on one of the entertainment news shows, when she met Donald and Melania, and she did so reach out to tousle his hair! The both of the Trumps gave her a look that she should not have invaded their personal space, it was priceless, especially Mrs. Trump`s look!
If all of these dumb sheeple continue asking for her to write a book about the way she runs her household, what the hell would they do if there was no tfw, just curl up and die when they could not figure it out on their own.
If they want the 8 on t.v., see no problem with it, then why aren't they trying to put THEIR kids on t.v., and posters of their kids faces everywhere, so all pedophiles can view them.(ugh, lost my question mark!) If it is okay for the gosselin kids, why don't they do it with their own kids. Pay for ads in their local papers, put their kids faces in there! It makes me sick that they think these kids NEED to be on a t.v. screen, why! And laughing about Aaden and the cupcake, how does tfw feel to hear someone laughing about her son`s crying. I just can't figure those people out. They just seem to get stupider every day.
Admin., I am proud to say that when my daughter did interviews, and had speeches to give, she did every single word herself, her dad and I never, ever told her what to say, and she also wrote her own speeches. Even though she was only 7 and 8, she knew what SHE wanted to say, with her thoughts and feelings, I would sit beside her, and not once did I ever need to tell her to `Say it, it`s your chance, spit it out!` Because her words came from her heart when she spoke, it was her deal, not mine, I was there to be her parent and provide safety and support. Shoot, guess I should have hired a bodyguard! Sorry, but I get very passionate about things pertaining to children. The only reason I brag about my daughter is because she is no longer living, I would never say things like this if she was still alive.
And milo, you dipshit, why do you keep tweeting, it was you who said that you communicate with her thru other ways, not just twitter. You are a liar, just like your school girl-ISH crush!
Done now:)
Oops, 1 more thing. Localyocal, the reason I never replied when you asked why they did not make the entire airplane from the black box material was because I figured you knew what you were talking about, and I was not knowledgeable about it like I thought you were, thought you were an engineer or something, way smarter than me, I was impressed!!
Upstater:
Me too Sandylove! In 1971. Except I was 10 and it wasn't LA. I was soooooo excited to see them. Huge Donny Osmond fan way back when :). Thanks for the memories!
****************************************************************************
You're welcome! =) Glad to know I'm not the only Donny fan on here.
Getofftwitter: Yes, I knew there were videos on Youtube from the concert as I happen to watch them about 2 weeks ago, lol, so funny you mention them! An interesting tidbit, I read Donny's autobiography in 1999 and he talked about that concert, stating they were all sick, especially him and they were forced to use the album tracks, though to me, I wouldn't have ever noticed that!
Auntie -- I googled Noxzema. Yep, they still make it. Re-vamped and more modern packaging. I swear I could smell it!
I know this is off topic but, my husband and I drove by Katie's house Saturday morning for the first time. My husband had an interview in MD, so we went north and drove by. It is secluded and huge. You can barely see up the driveway, but you can see the side of the house. There are signs all over saying do not stop, no waiting, no pictures, etc, so my husband followed the law and would barely slow down. She is very close to a police station, I would say 5 minutes. The road is extremely narrow and winding and the next driveway after hers on the opposite side of the road has signs all over saying do not turn around in my driveway, so I assume alot of people have done that. I recognized the side view of the house immediately. No sign of anyone there. I was hoping to see someone coming or going, but like I said my husband would barely slow down. I did get some pictures though.
Yeah, Tfw is being eyed for CA alright...with the big ole stink eye. As in, ni way in hell lady.
I cannot imagine watching the cupcake episode and laughing. That's something my DIL would do. That's when I stopped watching. It broke my heart to see that episode. How mean. And to get your jollies from being so mean. Doing it because you can.
Talk about making memories. Not the kind I want to make.

This is just a testament that authoritative parenting doesn't work
---------------------------
Actually, authoritative parenting is recommended. It's authoritarian parenting that is bad news. If you read about the four major parenting styles: authoritative, authoritarian, permissive and uninvolved, it's clear Kate practices authoritarian.
More interesting is some of the issues caused by authoritarian parenting are the exact things Jon said the kids struggle with on Oprah. I know Jon stated that he felt being on TV gave the kids those issues, but based on articles on authoritarian parenting, Kate's parenting style is at least as much at fault if not much, much more.
I went back & looked at past CA winners, they are HUGE names with $$ connections, not all are loved by all but defiantly have the 'friends in high places' connection:
**Piers Morgan - Not loved by all but loved by liberal Hollywood and DC, he took Larry King's place for goodness sake!
**Joan Rivers - Again, not loved by all but have tons of her own money and has the connections. Even when shot down by Johnny Carson, built herself into a multi-million dollar brand and has obvious staying power.
**Bret Michaels - Handsome, charming, smart, knows how to sell himself and knows what the pulse of America is all wanting (was great at advertising). Everyone loves him, heck, even my 76 year old mom loves him.
**John Rich - Although maybe not a household name, if you know anything about the music industry, you know John Rich. VERY smart and very well connected.
**Arsenio Hall - I can't really speak of him b/c I didn't watch this season but I know he's been in show business a long time and has rebuilt himself after a fall.
**Trace Adkins - This man amazed me both times he was on. SO smart, has an awesome 'poker' face but you could tell his heart was so in it for his charity and has the Nashville $$ connection.
That being said, if KG got CA, I'd watch because it would be good TV but I'm not sure how long she'd last b/c she has no fundraising experience. Other than a local yard-sale, showing up at the Zumba fundraiser (and accepting freebies) and whatever TLC paid her to do (which is NOT charity).
On the other hand, she is a beggar in real life, lol. But free bella bars & toilet paper isn't going to cut it in Donald's boardroom, so she wouldn't last too long! But the kids won't be involved so if it's a way for her to make some money and a fool out of herself, I'm game.
Yes indeed, she did touch Donald's hair, and NOBODY touches or makes fun of his hair. I saw a photo. She's toast.

Oops, 1 more thing. Localyocal, the reason I never replied when you asked why they did not make the entire airplane from the black box material was because I figured you knew what you were talking about, and I was not knowledgeable about it like I thought you were, thought you were an engineer or something, way smarter than me, I was impressed!!
((((
Oh thank you. No, not an engineer. My freshman year roommate was an engineer major and could run math circles around me. She struggled with her English classes which I aced. Funny how different brains work. I did graduate wit ha 3.8 though. #Humblebrag
Actually, authoritative parenting is recommended. It's authoritarian parenting that is bad news.

That was a typo, I meant authoritarian.
She's clearly authoritarian, never authoritative.

@Kateplusmy8 Kate I love your show , why did u stop ?
Don't you just love these sheeple? Let's see...Kate "stopped" because she was just tired of the whole "fame" thing. She wanted to be out of the limelight, back to being a "normal" mom, wanting her kids to have privacy and enjoy their childhood. She violated her contract with TLC because she wanted to put her children first, and even though the ratings were at an all-time high, she just pulled the plug on filming.
Kris, 158: That being said, if KG got CA, I'd watch because it would be good TV but I'm not sure how long she'd last b/c she has no fundraising experience. Other than a local yard-sale, showing up at the Zumba fundraiser (and accepting freebies) and whatever TLC paid her to do (which is NOT charity).
&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Do they give Uggs sandals on CA as one of the perks? If so, she's there.
Berks (156): As we've heard consistently from TFW's ardent sheeple...SIZE Does MATTER.
&&&&&&&&
Flintstone big toes are a turn-on? Who knew?
Why do I have the feeling that it's almost about time for TFW to take a much-deserved (oy) trip, as a reward for surviving the snowy PA winter? And that trip won't include 8 little faces? Remember, this is a mother who admitted that what "works best" for her family is that she's with them one week, and away the next.

We see these comments over and over. Are there really this many people out there that ignorant about how T.V. works? The talent, and I use that term loosely, has absolutely nothing, whatsoever, to do with whether a show goes on the air, goes off the air, or how long it stays on the air. Sometimes the talent is not even TOLD a show is on or off the air. Kate is not a TLC executive, she is just another one of their long list of "talent" that they can throw on or off T.V. whenever they darn please.
Do they not understand the concept of "the powers that be" who control such things?
This is a very old tweet from Kate, I forgot what she was replying to, but it kind of speaks to her delusion. From everything we've seen she is incredibly lazy and Jon confirmed she is STILL relying on a nanny, which is ridiculous at this age and with her not working. But yet she thinks the following:

Not to mention, what happened to moms sticking together? Cutting down another mother and claiming you do more in a day for your kids than they do in a week is hardly supportive. In fact it's downright nasty.

IIRC, she wrote an entire blog post about how moms should support each other. I guess what she really meant is that moms were supposed to support HER.
She has a lot of nerve to make that snarky and condecending comment when in fact, nothing could be further from the truth. She has hired housecleaners and nannies, in addition to the mile long list of chores the kids are responsible for doing. The nannies are responsible for doing the bulk of the grocery shopping. Most mothers work full time jobs, grocery shop, cook and clean, run children to activities and practices and attend the activities and games. Kate sits on her butt all day, twitting and surely working the phones trying to get back on tv.
Thanks PrairieMary and TLC Stinks for confirming that Kate did indeed touch Donald Trump's hair.
"there was a clip shown on one of the entertainment news shows, when she met Donald and Melania, and she did so reach out to tousle his hair! The both of the Trumps gave her a look that she should not have invaded their personal space, it was priceless, especially Mrs. Trump`s look!"
It's not the "haters" who are preventing Kate from getting tv work - it's Kate herself. There is no way she'd even be considered for CA. Trump, like an elephant, will never forget that she dared to touch The Hair! I have a feeling that whoever is the current Mrs. Trump doesn't even get to touch The Hair.
If TFW appears on the next Celebrity Apprentice, they are surely picking the bottom of the barrel for contestants. Their ratings have been down and I predict TFW will not last very long. I wonder what her charity will be? She's not dedicated to anything that doesn't involve money coming her way. She'll probably make up her own charity that will primarily go to her if she's cast on the show. It is curious that Radar just had the story yesterday of her holding hands with Steve and now she may be participating as a contestant on CA. I'll believe this when I see it.
I wonder what her charity will be?
Hershey Med Center, NICU, of course. It would be a perfect excuse for her to bring up the past and further exploit the kids. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
That's a horrible comment. How would Kate possibly know how much that person does for her children in a week? What if the mother has a child or children with special needs, or if she home schools her children?
+++++++++++++++
That's been one of Kate's problems all along. She can't see the "what if," and just blurts out whatever she feels like saying at the moment. I don't know if it's because there's something in her brain that's not wired correctly, if it's because she's so immature emotionally (and intellectually challenged) or if she just doesn't care what she says and figures "you started it, and I'm giving it right back to you."
Maybe it's all of the above.
If I recall, that Kate time managment comment was a retort to someone who had either given her unasked for advice or called her out on Twitter. She simply cannot ignore that kind of thing. Classic responses include the juvenile "have a nice day ". I also find her an unlikely choice for CA given her lack of contacts, her lack of $$$ and the fact she doesn't work for any charity that does not have her name on it. Add in the fact that she is completely inarticulate without a script, and the knowledge that she comes with diva demands, whatever would they do with her.

I never saw any photo or video clip of Kate actually touching Trump's hair. I remember it was reported that she had done so, but I never saw any visual proof that it happened. I remember seeing a photo of Kate posing with Trump and his wife, Melania, after a Lady Gaga concert in 2010.
If such a photo or video exists of her actually touching his hair, I would appreciate it if someone could provide a link to it. I would love to see the look on his face.
Ah Noxzema just the name brings the smell back. However we never used it on a sunburn because it would make you peel and we could always tell who the weekend Bennies were by the amount of Noxzema slathered on their shoulders.

My first choice concert was Supertramp at Exhibition Stadium in Toronto too. Saw someone else mentioned Exhibition Stadium and wondered if they ever went to any of the Police Picnics there? We went one year when James Brown was performing LOL it was, ummm, different that day, it was just an odd combo!
------------------------
I never went to any of the Police picnics at Exhibition Stadium (wasn't really into them) but lots of my friends did. I really liked going to concerts at the Ex. It was so much fun going to the CNE all day and then hitting a concert at night. I think it was the atmoshphere. You could see the ferris wheels and roller coasters still going while the concert was on. It was nothing but fun.
That's where I saw the majority of my concerts growing up and into my 20's. I saw Duran Duran, Pink Floyd, Eagles, Van Morrison, Elton John, Billy Joel, David Bowie, Wham, Pointer Sisters, Eagles, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Kim Mitchell (Max Webster), David Lee Roth, Santana, Steve Miller Band, ELO, Chicago. There were a bunch of 'smaller' bands as well. Wow-once I start thinking about it, it seems like all I did was go to concerts. Back then though concerts were nowhere near the prices they are today. You could actually go a concert, buy a black T-shirt and still afford the Go train ride home.
The last concert I saw a couple of years ago was my idol David Cassidy. As smarmy as it was, I loved every minute of it. Silly sidenote-The family that now resides in my old house in Toronto are called the Partridges.

I believe that in TCFW's mind, she multiplies everything she does times eight. For example, when she drives the kids to the bus stop, in her mind it is not one drive, but eight drives! No wonder she is so exhausted-ish!! !!!!!!
When TCFW floats the rumor that she is being considered for CA, it never occurs to her that when it does NOT happen she will be seen as once again failing to get herself on TV. Once again, she has exposed herself as the lying liar who lies. As has been said on this blog over and over for years, she can blame everyone else till the cows come home, but she and she alone is responsible for her failures. TCFW is just flat stuck on stupid.

LOL!! What would the winner receive this time? Kate could make copies of the photos she took of her kids' first poops, enlarge them, and have each child sign his/her own picture. #poops4pics
I'm still gobsmacked that someone tweeted TFW yesterday, laughing about the cupcake episode. That was a real little boy -- not Bobby Brady, or Urkel, or one of the Little Rascals. What in the world is wrong with these people? That hilarious line the fan tweeted...I only watched the episode once, but I can still remember the inflection. It was, like, are you kidding me? It's my birthday, and I don't get my cupcake? He was incredulous, as was I when I watched it. Surely it was a threat, and TFW would realize how cruel she was being. Of
course, on the couch interview, she claimed the boys didn't even remember to ask about their cupcakes the next day. Now why don't I believe her?
Over In TFW's County - Is there any other brand besides Taylor's?! I've got some in my fridge right now and a pork roll & cheese is sounding like a fine Sunday night supper.

I tend to instantly think of Kate too when I see poop.
I am worried that rumour on ROL is true about Kate being on CA. Maybe if his ratings are down, he is considering bringing her on. It would be such negative publicity but people do seem to like watching the trainwreck, Kate Gosselin. It doesn't matter if she doesn't have a charity, she could figure one out pretty quick. She would see this as rebuilding her image to one of benevolence now. Giving back, instead of taking. Rich friends to donate to her charity? There is Deanna, Jason, Ted, Jamie, Steve, Terri, Bindi, Defective Detective (always makes me laugh, that name...) Sweetbren, AustinMartin, Paige, Footsniffer, who did I miss. Oh Gladys. Yup. I smell a new TV gig on the horizon.
Paper Plates - 99% of those friends that you mentioned are far from rich and TFW would not be able to raise any kind of significant money. Wy would the rumor worry you? I think you're giving her more credit than she deserves. Wy would she be a ratings boos over two years after her show was cancelled. When she was on DWTS she still had TLC backing her. What/who does she have now? There are only a small group of people that still follow what's going on with her...the twitter fans, the twitter non-fans and us. The twitter bots can't watch TV they can only retweet what they've been programmed to retweet and they're out in force today retweeting TFW's tweet about hating losing an hour in the morning. Whether she's on or not I'll watch the show because it's a not so secret vice of mine. It would just make it sweeter to have her on bad see her get bitched out by everyone. After seeing some of the reports coming out of DWTS I really don't think she'd be able to function at all in the CA environment. You have to face it, it's everyone for himself on CA. Lisa Lampanalli said it was one of the most stressful things that she's ever done and that you work 20 hours a day six days a week. So TFW on CA? Bring it on.
Paper Plates Forever! Yay! said... 186
I hear you! Ratings, etc. but I am thinking this is NOT going to happen. Probably her PR person putting out interest, in light of someone cancelled.(See Twitter right now.)
I have always had mixed feeling on Kate appearing alone without the kids because I think she is one of the most phoniest, inappropriate people and continues to use her kids non-stop on twitter/blogs,kids), but after putting her teens on TV, and wanting them to recite her "material," , it is fairly clear, she is a clearly a has been.
I honestly do not think she will get a spot on CA, after her antics with DWTS. On the other hand, she may be ratings bonanza, because she is "out of her element." has no charities (always about Kate needing something), now that TLC is no longer on board.
My guess is she will use Red Cross to try to get on the show, but to my knowledge, she never committed a penny to that or any organization. She put her freebee kids close in a consignment shop, time and again.
As such, have no idea how she would ever "raise funds" for charity, as she has continued to make herself the one "in need of funds." It is all about Kate keeping her mug out there, no matter what.
I don't think CA is for Kate...Just found out celebritys only get 16,000 for the first three weeks. I don't think it would be worth it to her unless shes pretty desperate. After taxes maybe shes good for another month of living expenses. I was shocked how little they get. possibly that's why she never said yes to doing it. She wants to make a killing you know. But she will get more exposure....like she needs it...but really not a big money maker....beggars cant be chosers

A little late to the party but my first concert was in the summer of 1981 at the Yale Bowl, New Haven, CT, with my boyfriend (now husband) and one of his childhood buddies, to see the Eagles and a bunch of other groups. However, neither myself nor my husband, can remember any of the other groups.
I can't see TCFW on CA at this time. Maybe back in '09 when she had the support of TLC, the general public and had friends like the ladies at The View, The Today Show and People magazine. I would've thought if Donald Trump wanted TCFW, the Donald would've made the request back then. Can't see it happening now. I'm hoping she's been blacklisted because of her actions with the twins and The Today Show interview.
Why did my iPad auto correct "why to wy" twice? Damn you auto correct, wy isn't even a word!
Completely OT but I'm going to teach myself how to quilt and I need advice from anyone out there. I figured since this blog topic has been mostly Kate being on CA (never gonna happen), first concerts that we attended, poop in the potty, Kate's bodyguard/boyfriend and penis size (I just threw that one in) I thought I would ask for some guidance. I know you're out there. HELP!

Ok, maybe worried was the wrong word to use. I am disgusted thinking about this wanker getting on TV again.

I am not a quilter but adore quilts! I admire your ambition. In my area the rec center offers a group ( no instruction) where people who quilt have a space and the tools (?) to do so and offer each other advice and help beginners. Maybe there is something like that in your area? Or a Quilters Association lol? I just was reading about this last night in the local flyer and thought it was a good idea. Not much help, but good luck!
IF TFW does appear on Celebrity Apprentice, it wouldn't surprise me if she first sets up a foundation in her name which foundatin would then "support" the charity of her choice (i.e. St. Jude's, Red Cross or whatever). The foundation would be her's to "administer" for remuneration of course.

Apparently Stephanie lives much closer to me than the rest of you. That, or she moved out of her old neighborhood & gave my contact information as her forwarding address. :)
