    What is Jon Gosselin Running From?

    293.gosselin.glassman.071409 185x300 What is Jon Gosselin Running From?

    Jon Gosselin is moving far too fast nowadays. Just this past Tuesday, he was pulled over for driving 78 mph.  This is not legal. As a result, he has been issued a ticket for $165.50. That’s just drops in the bucket compared to all the cash he is getting after leaving his wife and 600 kids, a trajedy that he has effortlessly parlayed into a series of US Magazine cover stories. This just bought him another 3 seconds of relevance.

    Ambulance Called to Gosselin House, Everyone Fine

    Grandma watch out!

    "Grandma watch out!"

    By the way, I think this is the only photo I’ll ever use of Jon Gosselin.  It’s just perfect.  Sorry Jon.

    Mild drama this weekend as an ambulance was called to the Gosselin house out in Pennsylvania.  Did Jon and Kate Gosselin get into a violent screaming match?  No, nothing that explosive.  Jon’s grandmother had a fall and EMTs were brought to the house to take care of her.  Kind of anticlimactic, isn’t it?

    Granny Gosselin was taken to a hospital.  Reports say she’s now fine and resting comfortably.

    Thank God for Twitter, where Jon gave us this update: “Just to clear up any faulty reports: my grandmother did in fact fall in my driveway but she’ll [be] fine.  Thank you for all of the concerned calls.”

    Wait, people were actually calling the house?  Like, total strangers were calling?  Weird.

    The rest of the weekend seemed uneventful for the Gosselins.  Jon spent “Family Day” with the kids and played outside in the pool.

    Jon Gosselin Joins Twitter

    I LOVE TWEETING!

    "I LOVE TWEETING!"

    Jon Gosselin, the happy father of eight, has joined the Twitter revolution.  His username is @jongosselin1 and, since his account is new, he mostly tweets about going to Vegas.  Expect future tweets about his children and nagging ex-wife.  Maybe we’ll get a lot of sadface emoticons if the divorce doesn’t go well.

    His latest tweet: On the plane, can’t wait to see the kids!!! The sugar factory goodies are on the way, they’ll flip when they see it all.”

    We now have literally 24 hour access to the life of Jon Gosselin.  Big fight with Kate?  We’ll hear about it through Twitter.  Leaving the TLC show for greener pastures?  We’ll see his tweet before the news breaks.  This is a win-win for celebrity gossip fans.  Now we never have to be without Jon Gosselin’s pearls of wisdom.

    In other Jon Gosselin news, Radar Online is reporting that Jon’s gal pal Hailey Glassman didn’t accompany Jon on his trip to Vegas.  It’s not a sign of relationship troubles but rather a promise Jon made to take his mother.  Aww.

    Jon Gosselin DOESN’T Want Off The Show?

    Jon Gosselin, happy TV star

    Jon Gosselin, happy TV star

    Jon Gosselin is slamming reports that say he wants off Jon & Kate Plus 8.  The reality TV star says the sources are mis-informed.

    Speaking to People Magazine, Jon said: “I never said that.  A fan asked me, ‘Don’t you sometimes wish you could go back to a 9-to-5 job?’ [And my reply was,] ‘Yeah, because this is 24/7 and 9-to-5ers punch in and punch out and you have no responsibilities.’ “

    “Here,” he continued, “You have to watch what you say so it doesn’t contradict something else.”

    He later went on to explain that, even in his own house, he’s constantly being photographed and watched.  He also said that the kids, though sometimes annoyed at the filming, don’t want it to end yet. 

    Everyone deserves a break now and again but I still really think that Jon is angling to get off the show sooner rather than later.  At the same time, can you blame him? The guy’s life is a circus.  Maybe he can quit by pushing the boundaries of what TLC can take.  He can just waltz into his living room naked or only talk in rhyme for days on end.  Then the fed-up network would get pissed and cancel the show!  Gosh, I’m a genius.

    Kate Major on left

    Bad boy and father of 8 with Kate, has turned the corner for the worse again this week. The infamous Playboy Jon Gosselin, has wrecked his marriage since the success of his TV show “Jon and Kate Plus 8″. Jon has turned into some kind of celebrity. He hangs out with Ed Hardy’s Christian Audigier now, and he has been photographed with girlfriends/women other than his wife Kate.

    There is nothing really attractive about this guy, but he is breaking hearts! What is it about him? Well, after watching this “Inside Edition” interview with his fling Kate Major, it’s plain to see that he either sucked in bed, or he was amazing and she’s just mad that they are over. You decide…

    Watch the tears unfold **here!**

    Here’s a tidbit of what Kate Major says ‘in tears’ about her former fling with Jon Gosselin:

    Do you regret sleeping with Jon Gosselin?
    “Yes, very much so…I slept with him just a few days after we met…he said he was falling in love with me…I’m ashamed…this has publicly ruined my rep…he has embarrased me, hurt me and lied to me.”

    Jon Gosselin Creating New Show

    Jon Gosselin

    Jon Gosselin

    Man, divorce has never been so good!  America’s favorite father, Jon Gosselin, is moving forward with his new reality show titled Divorced Dads Club.  With him in the development process is father of the year candidate Michael Lohan and Lindsay Lohan’s manager.  In fact, TMZ has a shot of all the boys celebrating what seems like a development deal.  Cha-chinge!

    We have no idea what Divorced Dads Club will be about (probably something regarding fathers who are, I don’t know, divorced) but we do know that Jon might not be a big part of it at first.  You see, he’s under contract with TLC and is prohibited from appearing on other shows.  He might be able to get some sort of producer’s credit but that’s likely it for the time being.  This might mean that Jon is looking to get out of Jon & Kate Plus 8, which has been the rumor for some time.

    Divorced Dads Club.  Thank God for reality TV.

    ‘Jon and Kate Plus 8′ Jon Gosselin Gets Hosting Gig for ‘Wet Republic’ in Vegas!

    Christian Audigier

    That dude that’s the Dad of 8 kids and has a TV show called “Jon and Kate Plus 8″, has crossed over to a sort of celebrity status. Jon Gosselin is currently pictured in almost every rag mag that exists! He is often photographed with new women other than his wife Kate, who he has actually filed for divorce with. He even hangs out with Ed Hardy’s Christian Audigier now. How does he do it?

    We, nor anyone else can figure out why or how this guy became sort of famous…

    Jon is doing a good job, because he just got booked for a celebrity hosting gig at Vegas’ “Wet Republic”. Wet Republic is a hip and trendy outdoor, poolside club at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino. The party is going to be on August 29. There you can meet him in person, and all your dreams will then come true!

    Do you think he’ll be babysitting his 8 kids at the party?

    OMGGGGGGG. We’re so there!!! We love the cheezy fun!

    Jon and Kate Return, No One Cares

    Jon & Kate Plus Significant Ratings Drop

    Jon & Kate Plus Significant Ratings Drop

    As if you haven’t heard, Jon & Kate Plus 8 returned to TLC last night after a month’s hiatus. Good news for the network right? Eh, not so much.  While the show is still a cultural touchstone and dominates most tabloid mags, it no longer dominates in the ratings.

    Last night’s back-to-back episodes had about 4 million viewers.  The episode aired before the long break? About 10 million viewers.  Ouch.

    While 4 million viewers isn’t shabby, it certainly isn’t good news to TLC, which was probably counting on several more seasons of the series.  With their personal problems being paramount in their lives, I can imagine that Jon and Kate Gosselin (especially Jon, who has gone on record saying how much he dislikes being filmed) are weighing their options. Meanwhile, TLC might want to invest more attention in The Little Couple.  Have you seen that show, by the way? It’s awesome.

    Britney & Lindsay Together

    BFFs?

    BFF's?

    I think this might be the first sign of the apocalypse.

    Two of Hollywood’s biggest starlets, Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan, were together over the weekend, according to this photo taken by Rolling-blackouts.com.  No information was given regarding exactly where or when the event went down but one can assume that copious amounts of red bull and vodka were consumed.

    Take that Jon Gosselin and Michael Lohan, there’s a new pair of best friends in town!

    Michael Lohan & Jon Gosselin: BFFs?

    Jon Gosselin and Michael Lohan - best friends forever

    What the heck is going on here?

    Just Jared has posted some more pictures of new friends Jon Gosselin and Michael Lohan hanging out together in the Hamptons.  Apparently, Michael is family friends with Jon’s new lady love, Kate Major, and offered the couple residency at his estate.  Looks like they’re getting along famously.  In fact, Lindsay’s dad gave his two cents on the the future of TLC’S stars, saying Jon wants to remain friends with his soon-to-be ex, Kate Gosselin.

    “They had eight kids and he would like to work things out the right way and just be friends,” Michael told People magazine.  As long as Jon doesn’t take any relationship advice from Michael, I think he’ll be fine.

    This might be the weirdest celebrity friendship in history.  I really hope something memorable comes from this pairing, like a television show or ill-fated album.
