Kate's Worst Moments of 2014

It's that time of year again! Here is our annual list of Kate's worst moments. This year will be our fifth recap! Previous lists can be found here: 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013.

10. Take it like a man. Er, child. Kate picks a fight with a teenager.


This year Kate's managed to be a little more restrained than she used to be on Twitter, often because she wasn't on it for long stretches of time while TLC and NBC were stroking her ego. But she just couldn't help herself when a teen called her out for trying to film the teen's friend who was hurt. The teen said Kate had to be yelled at before she and her cameras would just go away. You could literally picture Kate clenching her fists as she hashtagged #hewillnotbeonTV (lol!!) and fired off this exchange: 

ɑɑʟıʏɑʜ ʜєʀв @Aaliyah_Herb Oct 19
Let me just say, @Kateplusmy8 is disgusting, she filmed my friend breaking his ankle at skyzone and wants to put it in her show9

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 Oct 19
@Aaliyah_Herb Not true.Hoping he is ok!Please tell him I'm thinking of him&wish him well.A nurse was needed.I was just there2help!Take care!

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 Oct 19
@MiloandJack @Aaliyah_Herb yeah, she was wrong! Just did what I hope another nurse mom would hav done4my child #HeWillNotBeOnTv #GetWell

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8 Oct 19
@MiloandJack No1 else w medical backround came 4ward
I live my real life&4get cameras often.She's just upset 4her friend& directing it @ me!

ɑɑʟıʏɑʜ ʜєʀв @Aaliyah_Herb Oct 19
@Kateplusmy8 yes m'am that's why 2 of your daughters went to the bathroom saying that he was their best friend

ɑɑʟıʏɑʜ ʜєʀв @Aaliyah_Herb Oct 19
@Kateplusmy8 and that's also why your producers were video taping ever second of his pain until you got yelled at to go away

ɑɑʟıʏɑʜ ʜєʀв @Aaliyah_Herb Oct 19
@Kateplusmy8 m'am I respect my elders, so I'm gonna keep my tongue tied but let's get one thing straight everything you said is bs

Baw-haha. 

9. Cheater! Kate and Steve caught in the act.



Kate and Steve were finally caught "cheating" this year. In more ways than one. First Steve was spotted tagging along with Kate everywhere on the set of Celebrity Apprentice. There were rumblings from insiders at the show that this was really weird and that nobody else had their assistant/bodyguard/best friend along. Most die-hard Apprentice fans consider such a thing unfair and
"cheating." Then months later, fellow contestant Kenya Moore went on record and said Steve and Kate indeed shared a hotel room during filming, confirming rumors from April that they were "definitely" acting like a couple and not trying to hide it. It was obvious Steve's presence made some of the other contestants resentful, prompting at least one to spill the beans. Bonehead move, Kate.


8. That's one botoxed Trojan Horse. Kate's own former employer The Stir calls her out for her bad parenting.



When Kate said she bought the twins iphones so she could take them away, she probably expected the usual accolades and ego stroking. The public's reaction was anything but though. A blogger at Kate's former employer, The Stir, called the stunt a "twisted trick":

"Kids test their parents' limits, and we need to set up boundaries and stick to them. It's GOOD to see Kate disciplining her kids without resorting to violence ('memba the wooden spoon incident?). That said, it seems a little odd to specifically buy something nice for your child with the intention of using it to punish them. For lack of a better word, it seems ... untrustworthy? It sounds like a Trojan Horse of parenting ... here kid, here's a gift, now I can use it to destroy you. Now, to be clear, that doesn't mean you shouldn't put limits on the use of gadgets because they are, after all, a privilege. But we are supposed to buy presents for our kids out of the goodness of our hearts, not with an ulterior motive! That's part of showing love and respect for our kids. And we all know respect is a two-way street."

The Stir really nailed this one. Kate does not respect her kids, from their privacy to their gifts. Yet she wants respect in return. Relationships don't work that way, and this is a major factor in why the kids have turned on her this year.

7. The Grinch who spoiled the children's Christmas. Kate lets the kids open presents early.




Most kids hate waiting for Christmas morning, but too bad, it's every celebrating child's birthright. Kate took the lazy way out this year however and gave in to their spoiled demands, tweeting that she was letting them open at least some of their presents early. In fact, one family gift a day. For good measure, she threw in a couple ignorant remarks about Judaism too. A policy of appeasement doesn't work in international relations and won't work for kids either

6. Not-a-contest. Kate's not-a-random act of kindness contest is one big mess.



Kate announced last December she was holding a random act of kindness contest with the winners to get copies of her book. There was so much about this little stunt that was snarkalicious, from most of the premeditated acts not being true random acts in the first place, to the obvious low turnout of entries, to Kate dragging her feet for over two months to choose the winners. Not to mention how complicated state laws are when it comes to such contests. And, we all wondered, how do you "judge" an act of kindness? Is saving a neglected baby kitten better or worse than giving your sandwich to the homeless?

Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 11 Jan
Can you believe I am STILL reading the stack of #BeKindGetSigned (copy of #LoveIsInTheMix ) submissions? (Us: Yes.) Your kindness is making us smile! 

I guess Kate figured out how to judge them somehow, because finally at the end of February, the "winners" were announced. Incidentally, the announcement was the last time she posted on her blog in 2014. Heh.

5. Reboot: TLC and Kate bring the show back.



You have to hand it to TFW, very few cancelled shows ever get a chance to come back again. But this year was a good one for her. TLC not only aired an update special that they promised way back when, but are also bringing Kate Plus 8 back in 2015. Much of Kate's summer she was MIA from Twitter, filming in Massachusetts and Maine. The fifth worst moment is shared with TLC, for resurrecting something that didn't die fast enough in the first place, and in all the preview clips, making the kids look spoiled and unruly. And what's more, they are exaggerating a small handful of episodes and calling it a "season," which is misleading. They also promised an air date of December, only to see that pushed out to January of next year. Shame on them for all of the above.

4. John Don't. Kate buys the kids a John Deere Gator.



The dumbest gift you can get a kid is an unsafe one. The second dumbest is a gift only meant to help them with choring. Kate's birthday gift to the sextuplets for their big tenth birthday was both. The John Deere Gator was one of her worst gifts yet, and the children were spotted both driving and riding in the back, a big no-no. John Deere warns in their own safety manual their gators should never be operated by children under 16. And Pennsylvania law forbids children from driving the vehicles anywhere but their parents' property without a training certificate. Kate tweeted that Mady drove it on their neighbor's property. More than 100 children in Pennsylvania have died on this or similar vehicles in the past 30 years in Pennsylvania. I would have preferred a Jonas brother.

3. Garage sale karma



There's nothing wrong with a garage sale, except when you're filming it, exploiting your kids, and selling your ex-'s stuff (or other stuff you got for free in the first place). Kate accomplished all three at the early morning sale this fall. Kate donated the proceeds to an animal shelter, but as per her usual, barely promoted that aspect of it. The best karma of all however was when Jon showed up, bought back his own video game (lol!), hung out with the kids for awhile (effectively sheltering many of them from being filmed), and then left with all eight of them.

2. Pitch your tent. Kate insults children with special needs, and their parents.

This one was a very close second to first because it was just that offensive and frankly, cruel. We all wondered what charity Kate would pick for Celebrity Apprentice. Surprisingly, it wasn't the obvious choices of the Red Cross, the March of Dimes, or a children's hospital. Rather it was a lovely little charity she has had no discernible contact with or interest in since May 2012, Camp Barnabas, a camp for children with special needs. We couldn't find a shred of evidence Kate has ever even been to this camp, let alone supported it for more than one night at a publicity event. When asked to speak about her charity, the only thing Kate could come up with to highlight is that this camp gives parents a nice break from their burdens. For good measure, she also said that special needs kids won't go to college and will have to be parented forever. That's simply not true, Kate. It was such a demoralizing blow to families who are working so hard toward productive and independent adult lives for their children. Get educated, Kate. Your unbelievable ignorance is both unforgivable and hurtful.


It's been another wonderful year here on the blog. Thanks to all of you for making it possible! And now here is the top worst moment:

1. Mommie Dearest: The twins choke on the Today show.





In 2014, the worst moment of the year happened only two weeks into January and hasn't been one-upped since. In an obvious effort to build and revamp the Gosselin brand for the teen years, Kate paraded the twins on a small media tour in NYC. First stop was the Today show, only it didn't quite go as Kate planned.  Watch it here.

Cara wouldn't speak, Mady clamped up a lot too, and when asked about Jon, Mady refused to throw him under the bus. 
Jon's response was heartbreaking: "I just feel horrible for my twins. You would only know as a parent. I wish I could've rescued them."

On the bright side, the outrage from other entertainment and social media was pretty universal, with Kate put on blast from the likes of Access Hollywood and Extra, along with numerous outraged drivebys on Twitter. It has even made at least one "year end" list of most outlandish moments of 2014, over at Gawker. It was a defining moment in which the general public finally saw the damage the exploitation has done. That same damage we've been warning about for almost ten years now.


And finally our annual Best Moment of the year. This year we're handing out just one award, although we're giving out a number of honorable mentions. One to Candace Cameron and Lori Loughlin who, for the first time we've ever heard, talked publicly about some of the negative aspects of growing up on T.V. Lots of child stars have spoken out and it's great when they do. This time was especially important though, because the sentiment from Full House is mostly positive from everyone but the very youngest cast members, and almost everyone on the show continues to be successful. It's important to note that even good, positive film sets that produce well-adjusted adults can still cause damage to child stars in the long run. Another honorable mention goes to Beth Carson for finally breaking her silence and confirming our speculations, and for calling Kate out for the greedy liar that she is. The only response Kate could come up with to Beth's bombshell interview was a pathetic little "no." Oh, but yes, Kate. And finally a honorable mention goes to Rep. Tom Murt, who is still not satisfied with child labor laws and is vowing to do even more, including mandatory background checks for all of production and an independent advocate on set. He even has Jon aboard now, too. 

The Best Moment award this year goes to the ladies of The Talk. Daytime T.V. for women can sometimes be a mind-numbing black hole of idiocy.


These women have proven this year that daytime T.V. doesn't have to be that. Women are just as smart and capable as men of producing good T.V., and The Talk did a lot last year to prove just that. What they have to say about current events is intelligent, logical, and worth listening to. The View and their squawking chickens this show is not. As for Kate putting her children back on T.V. this year, they had this to say:

Sara Gilbert: "Any time you're putting kids on T.V.--I was a kid on T.V. and I wanted to be there--but if you're putting eight kids on T.V. from the time they are tiny you don't know which ones want to be there and which ones don't. ... I chose it. They didn't get a chance to choose it."

Sharon Osborne: "It's our industry. We know what we're going to get, you know what you're not going to get. So therefore, it's a whole different thing."

So congrats Marie, Sara (both former child stars), Sharon (mother to former child stars), Aisha, and Julie.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, Admin! That's a terrific list complete with good graphics. What a hoot if it wasn't so sad. When its put all together like that, Kate looks dumber, lazier, and more conniving and fortune-seeking than ever.

It's been a great year here on The Veranda.Thanks to all. Great work, Admin et al

AuntieAnn said...

Great list once again, Admin. She might have toned down her twitter activity, but she's still an ass with or without it. I agree, the Camp Barnabas offensive blunder and the twins vow of silence were indeed the worst moments.

(I think stealing the kids thunder at gaga ball might deserve an dishonorable mention.)

Why this broad is still around is beyond me, but if it weren't for her I wouldn't know you guys which would be a bummer. Thanks for keeping this blog alive and thriving and that goes for your staff as well.

Wishing good health and happiness in the New Year to all here on the veranda and now on to Celebrity Apprentice where I'm sure Kate will start off the list of gaffes for 2015 with a bang.

Rhymes with Witch said...

A very well chosen list, Admin. It's a shame she gives you so much to work with though.

FYI said...

Admin-great list as always. I had forgotten about the discussion the ladies of The Talk had about Kate. You thanked Marie Osmond, but left out what she had to say, so I'll post it here:

Marie: "as a parent you have to look at your children's needs individually. I saw the Today Show. Those girls didn't want to be on TV. They shouldn't be on TV and that should be her responsibility as a mother".

That was one of the best statements ever made about Kate. She never looks at her children's needs individuals. She doesn't even think of them as individuals, but will always lump them together as her 8, count em, 8 kids.

Marie summed it all up in just a few short sentences.

I saw that tweet. So Kate can now say that "God made her do it" instead of "the Devil made me do it"!

Seems like there are more and more fans showing up on Kate's twitter using God as an excuse for Kate's exploitation of her children. Yet Kate never mentions going to church or God, unless you count when she tweeted the pics of the kids opening their Christmas presents.

How ironic that when showing the world the abundance of stuff the kids got, she used the hashtag #JesusIsTheReasonForTheSeason.

Kate's "god" is celebrity & money. So in that sense, "god" did make her do it.

I don't know who this "frazzled mom" is on Twitter. Is she a new sheep? Regardless, what a bozo. She still thinks that God told Kate to put the kids on television and she tweeted Kate and asked her if she knows Blankinship! lol! I'm sure TFW will jump right in there with a resounding, "Never heard of him."

Great list, admin. Good reading, and spot on. Thanks.

FYI said...

Reading the convo on Kate's TL between the non-fans, and the tweeter talking about God and Kate. Somehow the convo turned into a discussion about Bill Blankenship. The God tweeter then tweeted this to Kate:

Maggie Revels
‏@frazzledmom02 @Kateplusmy8 do u know this Bill Blankenship that was arrested years ago? Apparently he edited ur show

Waiting for Milo to jump into this convo. You know she'll show up sooner or later defending her queen.




FlimsyFlamsy said...

A hearty thank you Admin for this list! Your hard work is certainly
appreciated. And Alberta Girl (from the previous thread), thanks
for sharing your story.

About The Donald complimenting TFW, I agree that he was just
being diplomatic. I think some of us forget that to a large portion
of America, Kate Gosselin is just that chick with the porcupine
haircut and all those kids, who got divorced. So for him to
just slam her outright might make him sound like a tool.
But by saying something positive first (as hollow as it rung,
as he has no freaking clue what kind of mother she is),
it made him seem like he was trying to be a good sport
about it, and actually makes his criticism more believable.

I'm going to predict one of my favorite moments of 2015:
when Donald Trump looks TFW in the eye and says,
"You're fired!"

RonnieandMaggie said...

Thanks for the list admin. I think as time goes on TFW's laissez faire method of child-rearing will be talked about more and a subject of any future interviews with her. As we are seeing many people are becoming aware that she is just plain and simple lazy and it has nothing to do with having 8 kids. A think an honorable mention should also go to TWF's sister Kendra for speaking about the family estrangement and how TFW changed and banishes anyone who questions her.

And that Miss Tweeter is the problem. They can't be like "normal kids" because of their mother, and you're okay with that? Did God also tell Kate that he doesn't want her kids to be "normal kids"?

Unbelievable what some people will use as an excuse for Kate exploiting her kids.

Barb, I don't think that's going to get you any replies from Kate. You might want to think about your strategy and go back to tweeting cute animal pics.

cs said...

Let us not forget.

"Rabid Beasts"

After taking all eight kids to pick out party decorations, Kate compared her famous brood to wild animals. “I’m exhausted and fighting off eight rabid beasts at time," Kate said, adding, "And yes, I just called my children rabid beasts and I think that every parent, if they were being honest, would call their child a rabid beast every once and awhile."

Oh, my, I just read that Gia Giudice (Teresa's 13-year-old daughter) is filming a pilot for her own reality show. Apparently she is a singer and has her own girls' group. I bet TFW is ready to explode. Gia isn't even a multiple! Of course, it won't occur to TFW that Gia is interesting because she has a talent that was nurtured by her parents. TFW thinks sharing a womb with someone trumps talent.

I don't know too much about twitter...never had an account, but is there really some kind of alarm that goes off on your phone when set to a particular account? So if Gladys is taking a shower, something will beep on her phone to let her know that her darling is near?

I guess Milo expects her to be tweeting and a twattering during the airing of BOTH shows. Kate only said that she will "live tweet" during her show.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Maybe Milo thinks these shows are going to be taped live.

The only thing Kate will have to do is go to the finale, but that's probably not going to be until March. She may scrounge up a few promotions in January where she won't promote anything, but I doubt it's going to be the big glamorous NYC/LA media tours of yesteryear. That ship has sailed.

terri said...

Brandi Glanville did an interview about being on CA and was asked how it was working with the others. She says she usually gets along with most people unless they are crazy or lazy. When asked who some of those people were she said "working with Kate Gosselin was very challenging". She also said Vivica Fox and Leeza Gibbons were great to work with. Why am I not surprised that out of all the woman Kate is the one she singled out as "challenging" to work with.

Great to see some familiar names -- Orange Crusher, White Organza -- and hope to see more of them when the recaps of CA start appearing. Miss you ladies!

I hope everyone has a safe and happy New Years Eve and I pray that 2015 is the year that TFMJG disappears from public view (though I won't hold my breath).

Regarding the Gardner Quads family, do you believe it's possible they haven't posted pictures of the quads because they are selling the first pictures to a publication? I mean they had time to do video updates but snapping four pictures is too hard and time consuming? Even if they aren't selling, I still think they're(pathetically) trying to build up interest by delaying the pics, because many people seem to be dying(beats me why) to see these babies.What do you think?

Teri what interview did Brandi Glanville say it was challenging to work with Kate? I am curious because I hope that millions heard her say that. And I hope that Brandi lets it be known on CA that Kate is a pain in the ass.;

Article about Twitter jail. She's lying as usual.

"Twitter jail" is online slang describing the time out that Twitter enforces on users who have posted to the site too many times over a given hourly or daily time period. When you've exceeded Twitter's posting limits, your account is temporarily disabled, prohibiting you from posting publicly. However, while you're not allowed to tweet during this time, you'll still be allowed to access your Twitter page and read tweets from users that you follow.

TWEET LIMITS
You'll be temporarily blocked from posting on Twitter if you tweet more than 100 times per hour or more than 1,000 times per day. These numbers also include retweets. While this may seem like an immense number of tweets, the limits can often be exceeded whenever there's breaking national news, as users constantly update stories as they develop. You might also find yourself blocked if you're hosting a Twitter chat and exceed the maximum number of tweets.

JAIL TIME
If you've been sent to "Twitter jail," don't worry – it's not a permanent thing. There's not a process you have to complete before you can start tweeting again, you just need to wait it out. Twitter doesn't publish a specific timeframe for restoring posting privileges, other than suggesting that users wait "a few hours" after receiving an error message informing them that they've hit the limit. After you've "served your time," you'll be permitted to tweet again, just as you had before.

DIRECT MESSAGES
Aside from sending too many tweets over an hourly or daily span, you can also be blocked for sending too many direct messages. DMs are different from tweets in that you're communicating privately, and not on a Twitter page with a fellow user. If you send more than 250 direct messages in a day, you won't be allowed to send any more for the rest of the day.

Admin- Thank you for the wonderful recap of TFW's pathetic moments! And thanks to all of the wonderful posters here!

Consolidating posts today, as I have a lot to do, BUT Orange Crusher- nice to hear from you (taking a break is often needed with TFW); PJ for the "Burning Bush" comment; " The Fan" - for advising that GOD wanted TFW to continue to do the show- LOL; Gladyce- The enigma who just can't stop !? - LOL; etc... too many to mention.
"Laugher is good medicine," so thanks to ALL of the great posters - too many to mention and to Admin for this site!!

Wishing all of the great posters on this site a happy healthy New Year!! We all have opinions and although the TFW fans may not like some/most our posts, we simply state our opinion here, as we do not agree with their opinions. Hope the G8 get what they truly deserve and NEED in their new year (not holding my breath).

NICE! I also noticed in this clip that they didn't have a one-on-one interview with TFW but seemed to have one with every other competitor. Guess it's hard to fill air time with Ums and Honestlys....

Amazing. I thought everyone who meets her loves her. Not so much, I guess. I hope she gets more and more of this kind of exposure. Let people see what we've known for years. This stint on CA is NOT going to help her.

BTW, loved the Moses comment, Sleepless. My mind automatically went to the parting of the Red Sea, but I can't make that kind of a comment on this blog. Ha!

getofftwitter said...

Oh, PLEASE KATE! We all know you went off on a mini vacation or had a plastic up keep done. That's why Jon had the kids. Your getting ready for a media tour(that is if anyone will have you on their talk show). So, far none listed.

I saw the commercial, I would be ashamed of my kids and for the way they are put out there. But, Kate has no shame, didn't everyone know, this is the only way Kate can make money & take care of her kids. So, I guess, people who have 8 or more kids are doing it wrong, according to Kate. The jobs they have are no good, their houses are mediocre, and substandard or what Kate called her old neighborhood the Ghetto, the local schools which are very close to Kates house, and have very high rating according to Zillow, are substandard, but Kate sends them 36 miles away. Wow, Kate you really can't stand your kids. Kate you are full of BS.

LOL. "Kate is Lazy" !!!!! and she got 2 seconds in that clip!!

It makes me sad, too. This is not going to turn our well for Gia, especially with parents who are such poor role models. The Giudices will market the crap out of every one of their children to maintain their celeb lifestyle, just wait and see.

Wowser said...

Does anyone think it's strange that TFW has not mentioned ANYTHING about CA, her experience on it or anticipation and excitement that it's about to air??? It makes me wonder if she's embarrassed by how she appears on it and therefore is not promoting it because she does not want the negative perception of her to affect viewer numbers for her 5 shows on TLC.....just trying to wrap my brain around her conniving, money grubbing, manipulative thought processes.

She rarely promotes anything, and I've never been able to figure this out. It can't be that she's embarrassed because there are plenty of things she has done she obviously feels no shame about. My best theory on this one is that either she is just so dumb she doesn't realize a little promotion on a celeb's part could make a huge difference, or she somehow feels "above" doing PR for these things. I mean this woman will literally go on a national talk show the day something big is airing and never even mention it until the host brings it up at quick at the end. It's amazing.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

What a huge coincidence she went to Twitter jail just when Jon had the kids all week. Wow, what luck.

Tucker's Mom said...

OMG, it's pathological of Kate to think that her tweeties will believe that she's been in "twitter jail" when she doesn't tweet.
I mean, she has to know what that actually is, and that her tweeting doesn't quality, yet she continues bald-faced lies!
She's a 6-year old!

Here's a new clip from CA where they discuss Kate's laziness.


&&&

This is everything I hoped for and more. This is the one reality show I really wanted to see her do because I think it is the best one out there to really strip someone down to who they really are.

There are no more excuses now for the sheeple. This other celebs are just as rich and famous or more than her. No reason to be jealous. These other celebs actually know her. No excuses that you don't really "know" her. And they are saying the....same....thing....we ....are.

She loves fame more than anything. Check. She's a lazy tool. Check.

What's next?

FYI said...

Hmm-wonder if Kate watched the clip. She retweeted the following platitude.

Kate Gosselin retweeted

Life Tools @LifeTools
· 10h 10 hours ago
Sometimes people try to expose what's wrong with you, because they can't handle what's right about you.

So she says she hasn't tweeted because she was in "Twitter Jail" and how she missed everyone. Yet she only makes that one tweet, retweets a platitude and doesn't tweet anything else.

If she "missed" everyone, she sure didn't show it but sticking around.

As far as PR for her shows, she's got Milo for that.

And you've got to love how somehow the specials first morphed into a season, and now apparently one tweetie thinks there's a Christmas special.

Iris ‏@_Soto_83 · 10h10 hours ago

FlimsyFlamsy said...

Wait -- I've got it! I know how TFW's throngs of supporters (read:
Gladys) will refute that "lazy" comment. Not just the obvious
"they're just jellus" one -- that's old hat. They'll say she's TIRED!
EXHAUSTED! FRAZZLED! Plus, she spent every moment of
every challenge WORRIED about how her 8 sweet babies were
doing with their Mommy away! Those other trifling contestants
should've been glad she was able to get herself dressed every
morning! But since she had to provide food her children's
mouths, she had to tear herself away from hearth and home
to earn a living.

So to recap -- TFW is not lazy. And until you've walked a mile in
her shoes, how DARE you comment otherwise.

AuntieAnn said...

"Lazy" heehee. Pinch me someone.

I'm buying popcorn in bulk.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

It's epic good luck Brandi is on this season. If anyone is going to call her out for exactly who she is it will be her.

Kate pretty much freaked out at the lazy comment which to me just suggests guilt and defensiveness. If you weren't lazy you'd just laugh it off, okay Brandi if you say so.

And wait isn't Brandi a mother too who left her babies behind? It can't be that Brandi doesn't understand or appreciate the pressures of motherhood.

Vanessa said...

Kudos again Admin, great list!

As far as the new show, she's just reinforced that she cares not one iota about her kids. Let's go back to the glory days, when they were at their peak in popularity--there were some vile disgusting comments about her kids, namely M. She's a grown ass woman, she should be able to take the "haters", but she couldn't--in comes BV for HER. Now let's just make an honest observation (can't remember who posted about our observations being the "truth", good one) You have a bunch of snotty, ill mannered, obnoxious disrespectful kids, we SAW what we saw, it's proof. NO fault of their own, but it is what it is. She is perfectly willing to allow the "haters" along with the educated pundits, bloggers, posters here and elsewhere to put in print, on the internet, until the end of time!! THEIR comments, be they vile or not. She has absolutely NO CONCERN OR INTEREST in their emotional well being, in the, of their LIVES. She is giving true bullies access to her children. Access to their behavior, feelings, dysfunction, quirks. She KNOWS it will be bad. She KNOWS what is going to happen. For every one positive comment, there will be a dozen awful ones. She DISGUSTS ME!

Mel said...

You'll be temporarily blocked from posting on Twitter if you tweet more than 100 times per hour or more than 1,000 times per day. These numbers also include retweets. While this may seem like an immense number of tweets,

Uh...has she met those parameters, anyway?? Has she tweeted 100/hour, or 1000/day? Ever?

While this may seem like an immense number of tweets,

Uh, yeah. Especially when you're home alone, without any help whatsoever, with your *eight* kids. Whom you are desperately trying to avoid having to interact with....

I love Brandi calling TFW out as being lazy AND it's all on film so TFW's fans will cry that it was edited to show her on the few times she wasn't running around like a chicken with her head cut off. Hey, at least TFW knows that lazy is an adjective. I did spit my coffee out when she said that lazy was not an adjective that was ever used about her. LOL, seems to me that's one of the most used adjectives when speaking of her.

The unbelievable thing is this is her "second chance at the ring", her redemption tour to show she's not difficult as has been portrayed. You'd think she'd have given 150% effor to do so...or did she and that's how actually lazy and difficult she really is?

Kate's a narcissist. Quite simply, she never sees herself in a negative light, so of course she's not lazy. Of course she's a good mother..blah, blah, blah. She is oblivious to the real world.

Turtle (AKA Amy2) said...

Just popping in to comment on CA.

I saw the CA clip with Kate on one side and four ladies on the other with Kate explaining her point of view (rather loudly) and the ladies not buying it. It dawned on me that she's filling the Omarosa spot. You know, the person who knows all and doesn't do a thing. Yet she is always arguing and getting her facts wrong (on purpose?). IMO, Kate is the female villian in CA. Or the person who brings drama to table.

I watched a show with quads a few years back- the identical Mathias quads, Anna, Mary Claire, Emily and Grace

They had a short-lived Discovery show and had all the trips and loot and TV appearances. Now though they seem to be teens dressing differently and are back into a normal life. Their parents seemed overwhelmed but pleasant, swept away on the quad current. I think luckily their feet have come back to ground- I hope, anyhow.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

I like Brandi too. She has her faults, she's too crass at times. And she is obviously a bit insecure. but she lets her kids be normal, she seems like she has a supportive family, and some of her closest friends are real good eggs. And she's a dog lover, she was absolutely crushed when her dog ran away. You would think her own child was missing.

Tucker's Mom said...

Kate saying that LAZY doesn't apply to her just shows her total lack of awareness. She defines lazy.
Whatever she does do, whatever energy she exerts is directly proportional to her bitching about it.

I couldn't believe my ears when she complained to her kids that she dragged her ass out of her bedroom to feed them when she broke her pinky toe.
The woman managed a media tour across 2 countries with that war wound, but she bitches about walking to the kitchen to cook?

She is lazy and thinks making lists and spouting orders and pointing those ugly, way-too-long-French tips around is actually DOING something.

Let's ask Beth Carson how lazy Kate is. From what I've gathered, Kate spend her time "book writing" sprawled out on a hotel bed and ordering room service (which I'm absolutely sure Beth and Bob paid for).

PatK said...

Let's list the most likely tweets Kate will send during the CA run:

1. "That challenge was SUPER FUN!!!"
2. "I've never had so much SUPER FUN in my life!!!"
3. "All the gals were SUPER FUN to work with!!!"
4. "The guys were AMAZING AND SUPER FUN to work with!!!"
5. "I made some life long AMAZING SUPER FUN FRIENDS!!!"

Anyone else....? lol

Tucker's Mom said...

I'm really looking forward to the CA recaps! So far, we have Brandi calling Kate out as lazy (and maybe she was called a drama queen) and Donald Trump saying that she's way too in love with the life of celebrity.

Before Jon, she had her boyfriends and her boyfriends' mothers waiting on her and before that her brother said he did her chores for her at home. No wonder her father kicked her out of the house.

After she was married, if it wasn't Jon, it was the hired help courtesy of TLC. Now she's got the kids doing all the work along with the nanny.

Lazy hardly describes the sluggard. She's lazier than lazy.

Vanessa said...

In his immaturity, the narcissist sees the other and the world as the container for his feelings and the parts of him that he is not able to tolerate, just like the small child uses the mother as a container for his unease and upset. The narcissist repairs himself from inevitable run-ins with reality through a process of filtering, a process of removing solid facts – dissociation - or tweaking solid facts to favor the preferred conclusion - distortion. Through splitting he bans part of his experience to the unconscious realm of the mind, so that he does not have to deal with it. Through belief in entirely biased convictions of his magnificent qualities, his brilliant vision or his extraordinarily perfection, he stays "on top" and away from depression. Only the show and the magnificent mask are real.
Consequently, the narcissist firmly believes in the reality of his distortions and the truth of his lies, and that is exactly what makes him so certain and convincing in his fraud. His gift of certainty is mesmerizing, yet hides a Pandora's box of frailty and to keep the box tightly closed, he is willing to resort to stone-walling and war-tactics, while she is twisting words until they suit her purpose and both will blatantly lie, with no qualms and without a bad conscience. Both will sacrifice anyone for the sake of the perfect image, just like the addict will sacrifice anyone in the way of getting his fix. The narcissist is fully prepared to give up on human morals and human integrity for the comfort of the masquerade.

She truly does believe she is not lazy.

Vanessa said...

Confronting the narcissist with truth, honesty, reality or boundaries, never mind criticizing or defeating him, is perceived as an "attack" and a threat to his existence. Narcissus will react with intense defensive aggression. She will complain, play the martyr or cry foul.
**************************************************

JMO said...

Well if you are a selfish narcissist who has no social skills and relies on hired help (TFM) for constant approval, you probably won't do very well. Think Dancing with the Stars and CWS. Problem is CA is much more interactive, competitive, and there is no where for TFW to hide all of her flaws, which is part of the show, having flaws thrown out there. Buckle up Buttercup. You got what you wanted.

Vanessa said...

Be it in marriage, family, dynasty or nation, living with the narcissist will inevitably bring about Christina's predicament: the narcissist's priority is the survival of self. The other and the world are beholden to his idealizing or demonizing eye, his game is one-upmanship. He will argue, contest everything and ride roughshod over everyone. He is simply not able or willing to connect or cooperate or engage in give and take.

Formerly Duped said...

Kate was always so lazy and exhausted-ish.I think she knew one shouldn't be, so put that hard-done by attitude on, 'no one knows how to help me' etc.Jon did everything apart from helpers and then she had hired workers when TLC was done.And then the Chore Chart.Even the kids have her number now. It was so funny when one of the boys said on the birthday special that Mommy goes back to bed after they go to school!

The big problem Kate has is that she is playing this game with other narcissists. They know every trick in the book. Her usual tricks and scams aren't going to work. And since it's a competition in which they have a direct hand in the outcome (completely unlike DWTS in which the audience voted), they have no reason to just turn the other cheek and be nice, and every reason to call her out. This is a sophisticated group when it comes to the world of celebrity who is not going to fall for it. They won't buy her tricks because they KNOW the same tricks. It's like a magician trying to play to a room full of other magicians. It ain't gonna work. Haha, karma. As dance Moms would say, save your tears for your pillow.

decadence?

Lazy hardly describes the sluggard. She's lazier than lazy.

Slothful? Is that a "worser" term? (Kate-speak, of course).

====

With no offense to sloths, right? I think they're kind of lovable. Anyway, yes it's worser. She has Tom Sawyer syndrome - talk other people into doing your work for you and even pay you for it.

Oh and the list of chores she had for her nanny Judy was insulting.

This is from a list Kate made and RH found and wrote about in his book:

Shoes/jackets swim stuff cleaned up
Trash if full - emptied and extra cardboard & trash to garage
C&M lunches packed - healthy stuff
Basement cleanup!
Night/TVs & movies turned off
Each room/bathroom checked & straightened & throw away clutter
Garage/toys/bike cleaned up
Turn every light off as you leave rooms
Empty reload & run & empty dishwasher
Help kids make beds (teach, show & hep them)
Teach table manners (chew with mouth closed, eat neatly, sitting properly)
Sweep kitchen & DR clean bibs, HC & table
Empty & clean coffee pot
Empty packages & discard wrappings



What a douche. I'm surprised she didn't have her out on the roof cleaning the gutters. And while Jon or the nanny or the kids were slaving away at home she was out screwing around with monkey man. I can't wait to hear her CA team members complain about HIM too.

For what it's worth Jon did INDEED have all of his children over Christmas. He had them all day Christmas Eve and dropped them home to have a quick Christmas morning at Kate's. He did not have to do this, but the kids did want to be at home on Christmas morning. He picked them all up at 10:00 am and took them to his mom's for a big Christmas breakfast. He and the kids stayed with her overnight and he took 3 of the 8 skiing/snowboarding. They all hit the sledding hill one day, went to a movie and cooked a big meal with his mom and brother. There are other details that I will keep private, but some of the kids are struggling.

The jobs they have are no good, their houses are mediocre, and substandard or what Kate called her old neighborhood the Ghetto, the local schools which are very close to Kates house, and have very high rating according to Zillow, are substandard, but Kate sends them 36 miles away. Wow, Kate you really can't stand your kids

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It was her current neighborhood that she referred to as ghetto, not their previous community in E-town, from what I am remembering. They were living in Lancaster County, not far from their school when she enrolled the twins there. Rather than take the twins out of school when they moved, the younger ones also were put into the same school.

Guess Katie's number was up almost from the beginning. There was no way, in a room of polished narcisissts, she was going to shine. No people skills whatsoever. I look forward to the recaps of CA and her 'specials' 'cuz no way I can subject myself to any of that.

And yes, redbirdsings, I do follow your saga of name change. Hope 2015 is far less dramatic for you.

Since there were no airport or beach sightings, my guess TFW was holed up having just a few minor tweakings done to her lovely face. A little prick here, a little tug there, new extensions, talons, etc. Though I also doubt there will be much clamoring for her on the talk show circuit. Whoever said she came in to be Omarosa, spot on. And that is ni compliment.

Thanks for saving me a chair on the verandah.

----------------------------------
Well, it makes sense that she would have someone else teach this because, as we've seen, she doesn't have the first clue about table manners. Since we've never seen her perform any of these other menial tasks, I'm assuming she doesn't know how to do those, either.

Tucker's Mom said...

I watched the press Q+A with the CA cast and Kate needs to stop waving her hands around. She looks ridiculous.
Kate goes on to say that she's just such a natural with business, like she's some freaking mogul. "It's like dancing with the checkbook". Yeah, it's just like that, except it's not.
She then uses her kids to get attention, and disses them in the same breathe. "It's great to film with people who don't need snacks and potty breaks".
F8ck you, Kate. Those little paychecks made you who your are and without them, you'd be nothing.

Realitytvkids.com ~ Administrator said...

Wow. Even if she was joking, good grief she sounds so cold! I thought the kids were just playing. If they are just playing their real lives, what's the problem with having a snack and potty break? That's real life. I think she thinks these glib remarks are funny but they just sound psycho.

I guess she's not familiar with New York state labor laws, which REQUIRE snackbreaks for adults too:

Employees who: Work a shift of more than six hours starting before 11 AM AND Continue until 2 PM
MUST Have an uninterrupted lunch period of AT LEAST Half an hour between 11 AM and 2 PM.

fade2black, that's what I thought too when I read it. She's gauche. A regular boor. She eats with her elbows on the table, talks with her mouth full, chomps gum like a cow chews her cud, picks food off other people's plates, but is fanatical about manners? I don't think so.

We didn't see her bed made either when they were in the old house. She was usually in it.

At 10 and 14, these kids are too old to need a snack break made by Mommy.
Pee breaks, too. Everyone needs them. It's like Kate has to treat them like 4-year olds who need to be reminded to go to the bathroom.

I missed that. Did she say they were with her for the entire holiday? I thought it was believed that Jon had them Christmas Eve Day and part of Christmas Eve and then returned them home later that night so they could wake up at their own house on Christmas morning. What did she fake? They were in their pajamas, reading the story, and then I assume they went to bed. It was clearly dark outside, so it wasn't something done during the day or faked.

I wondered if she eats like that when she's out with celebrity friends...you know, at functions with people who really do have table manners, formal dinners,l and whatever, or if she's just shovels in the food at home without even caring that her elbows are on the table and she's slouched over her plate like a pig at a trough.

Smoochie said...

I have relatives that are 'not lazy' like Kate. They spend so much time organizing, making lists, walking / driving back & forth, making multiple trips when one would do, telling others what to do and the like. Wasting time and making things 10x more difficult than they need to be is what they're best at.

I have one who is lucky enough to stay home, doesn't need to worry about money , is under 50 and in good health. "OMG I was run ragged today, totally wiped out ... I went there, then home, then there, then home, then there, then home, had to call the utility company, was on hold for 15 minutes, it's so annoying" ... ummm how about you start with the place furthest away and work your way home and make your call. Hell, if you're that strapped for time, call them from your cell phone on the drive! If you think you had a long day, try working 8 hours, with an hour drive time each way, then having to run the errands, call the utility company and make dinner when you finally get home.

I shouldn't forget the exaggeration either. She honestly thinks running 3 errands is a full, busy day and she's exhausted at the end of it, usually in bed between 9-10 pm. She has a cleaning lady 1x a week and her hubby cooks dinner, due to his hours he's normally home by 3pm and he's a better cook. Long forgotten are the days she used to work full-time and then do all that stuff. I just roll my eyes!

I'm guessing TFW guilt-tripped them about being alone Christmas morning and/or said if you are not home, no presents. My daughter's NPD step mom pulls this stuff. She was horrible to my kid so my kid bought her brother a birthday present and had it sent. She was told the brother would not get it until she was there to give it to him. The brother didn't know she had even sent it utnil she got a chance to talk to him on the phone.

I totally respect Jon's silence, but it is heart warming to read these things once in a while.
We KNOW they have no warmth, or spontaneity, real fun, family when they're with Kate.
There was something about this Christmas that seemed "off" to me....I can't put my finger on it. Sad, somehow.

I'm worried about the boys, too. And the girl tup that hits and spits.

I hope they're doing ok in school.

Thanks again for the update. It sounds like Jon filled their visits with fun and family, while Kate holed herself up in the kitchen and did diddly squat with them, without cameras around.

No, she didn't say it, she implied it. Notice she posted with the pic of Mady reading on Dec 24,' Good night to all and to all a Good Night'- NOT Merry Christmas to all...but it was that 'traditional' book, dark outside so you would think it was Xmas Eve...then her favorite 'snaps of Xmas Day" show the kids by day in the same jammies. So you would assume they were with her ( maybe after being with Jon) Xmas Eve and into Xmas Day taking snaps in jammies...we know Jon had them Xmas Eve, but it would seem according to Kate's Twitter he brought them home by nightfall. This poster says the kids were with Jon straight through Xmas Eve day and night, and stopped by Kate's briefly at 10 AM Xmas Day. Then on the Grandmas, and winter fun.
Kate is wily about how she posts things, like Good Night to all, the jammies etc. At least that's how I saw it.

Formerly Duped said...

Ha, I assumed the kids wanted to stop by Kate's to pick up their loot! Maybe they were bribed to.10 AM then leaving fro breakfast- not much time for all those cozy snaps to be taken. How did Kate get them to stay dressed in their jammies?

Formerly Duped said...

Wait...I see- they DID sleep at Kate's I guess then Jon picked them up at 10 AM. I read that as he picked them up FROM Kate's at 10 AM..ignore me, I'm a dildo, lol! Sure was nice of Jon.

Too funny.

Happy New Year to all!

CA is going to be interesting. It doesn't look like TFW is going to be able to snow the other contestants. She is the master of "If I say it, then it is so". All she has to do is say something, no matter how implausible, and the sheeple jump right on board. The kids can't really fight back, so she is used to being taken at face value (dismissing any naysayers as "haters"). But the rest of the CA cast is not going to take her at face value. Looks like they are going to call her on her laziness and lack of work ethic, and they won't back down when she protests. This is new territory for her. She's not the boss. She's not the star. She can't dismiss the other contestants as "jealous" or "haters". She'll play the pity card (boo-boo, I'm a single mom with 8 kids doing it all on my own), but when it comes to cutthroat competition, excuses don't cut it. Suck it up, buttercup, and bust your butt or get the hell out. I still won't watch, but I"ll definitely read the recaps!

EXAMINE the picture posted Xmas Eve (story telling) with the pictures posted Xmas morning. One of the tip girls has on a DIFFERENT PJ TOP, a magenta tank. In the Xmas Eve picture, she's wearing a long sleeved top.

Also, just because Kate posts a picture on a certain day does not mean it was taken on that day, right? I certainly believe they were dropped off at Kate's Xmas morning to open presents. I think the story telling picture was taken on another night but posted by her on Xmas Eve.

FlimsyFlamsy said...

"It's great to film with people who don't need snacks and potty breaks".
Well, let's see...M said she was thirsty before one interview, and
you opened a bottle of water and drank some yourself and didn't
delay the interview to give her any. The show must go on. And
C was writhing in pain on your lap when he was constipated, and
you shunted him to his dad while you continued the super-urgent
task of thumbing through a catalogue of beds. The show must
go on. So your track record for stopping filming based on your children's needs isn't stellar.

"It's great to film with people who don't need snacks and potty breaks".

What parent of young toddlers doesn't relate to that comment?

And that's what she's counting on.

She intentionally phrases things as if the kids were 2 or 3 yrs old. She wants to be seen as the poor, poor, overworked, put upon mom, who selflessly does it all, all for her children. {Sob}

She's counting on whoever's listening to not realize that the kids are 8 and 10 years old. They no longer need an adult to supervise snacks and potty breaks.

Although at her house things are so regimented, maybe the kids do only get potty breaks at assigned times. Or when she says they can.

Yup, I think we could tell from Kate's standing around doing absolutely nothing at Pie Face that she was just coasting, letting everyone else do the heavy lifting.
So far, no one has anything positive to say.
Trump said she's a good mother-bs. How would he know? Because she's always bringing them up? That's not mothering.
Trump has her number, though- she's in love with the fame and money. Loves it way more than her kids.

It's telling that Brandi, who can easily be "the bitch" on CA, made good friends with 2 other female cast mates.
People like Leeza and well, most of the cast, know what hard work is and have paid their dues.

Kate Gosselin met Donald Trump backstage at Madison Square Garden, and "did the unthinkable" says Star. After posing for a picture, Kate ruffled The Donald's hair. "Donald politely pushed her hand away while his wife, Melania, scolded Kate," says a source. "Kate apologised and skulked off." He shouldn't have minded.

The reality of her life was never good enough for her. She thinks she's living some other life where she dates millionaires like she's actually a real celeb. She's predictable and shallow.

It kind of would explain the twitter silence, filming and finally got a boyfriend

(((

His linked in says he's in Boston...figures she would land a millionaire. She probably went to the millionaire matchmaker.

She's probably put it out there to anyone and everyone she encounters what she's looking for. She's not looking for Joe Nobody. She has specific requirements and she's not going to settle until somebody checks all the shallow boxes. My narcissist only dates millionaires too. Of course none of these guys are really right for her or capable of taking on her disaster of a mess. All these relationships lasted 6 months or less, which is about how long it takes the average man to realize what he just stepped into and run for the hills. I think she's on her third or fourth millionaire these days.

And Kate's not want for money, so maybe he's helping which would explain why the cash just keeps flowing and she's acted so worry free lately.

IF she is dating him, I bet that's where she is, jetting off to be with him while the kids are with Jon. Maybe by twitter jail she means some kind of weird handcuff thing with him like 50 Shades.

One paragraph in this article doesn't jibe.

"These two have been pretty tight since at least October, when there were sightings of them in New York City, where she had been shooting the upcoming season of Celebrity Apprentice."

CA was filmed last March, so how were there sightings of them in NYC in October? Plus October was when she was filming her new shows at home.

Boston eh? Dating since October eh? Sounds like she might have met him on the trip.

It certainly does all add up.
