Kate Gosselin on the radio....

I happened upon Kate Gosselin on the Ryan Seacrest show today (I don't usually listen but that is a whole other story). Lets just say about Kate; I am not a fan. I never watched her show and I could care less about her dramatic divorce. But (always a but) she made a comment today that I had to mention. While talking on the radio today Kate told Ryan that she would give up the fame, money and drama to switch places with her babysitter in a "micro-millisecond". So here is my issue, you have to provide for your family (so you say, is there no money from TLC?) why Dancing with the Stars? You can get a job that is nondescript that still pays. In my mind the fame thing is yours to control. If you do not want it, walk away. I just hate to hear complaints about the paparazzi and the lack of time with the kids when this is all something that she seeks.

I am not a single mom (and have never been) but to hear this woman include herself in this group really bothers me. Kate Gosselin acts as if she has to "work" and be away from her children because she has to support her family. Not only do these children have a father, they also have plenty of money to last a long, long time if the lifestyle is managed responsible. Not everyone is this lucky. I just needed to get this off of my chest.

Fame-seekers drive me bananas. I am unashamedly a celebrity ho but when I think celebrity I think someone who possesses at least a little bit of talent. Not an egotistical mother who uses her children to her advantage and is stretching her 15 minutes further than anyone would ever have imagined.

When will the 15 minutes end?

I was ironing tonight (I know I am a good wife) and had the television on to pass the time. While watching Entertainment Tonight I was outraged (OK maybe not outraged but miffed) by the story that the show was doing on Levi Johnston. The man/boy is trying so hard to be a good father and get more time with his son, so he has the ET cameras follow him around for the 6 hours a week that he has him. In fact, shock of all shocks, he shows ET how he changes his son's diapers and plays with him. Wow that is fascinating (are you detecting my sarcasm at all)! Please let this man/boy go away. Stop putting him on television, please. No doubt he is thankful that he has become a member of the "lucky sperm" club so that he can use his son to become famous. But if we stop catering to the bullshit maybe he will disappear. As I have stated in the past, I am not a Palin fan (never have been). You have to admit that at least she and her daughter have not used the child as a tool for publicity. Ranting finished. Thanks for listening.

Just Go Away

Jon Gosselin on Good Morning America: "I despise Kate"

With he amount of stupid television I watch, you would think that this is a show that I have
watched. Just so you know I have not but this does not make me less sick of Jon and Kate and their constant trying to get back at each other in public. For your children's sake (and everyone elses)...please go away. Let your 15 minutes be done and focus on your family.
