Jon and Kate Plus 8, Official Thread-Part 3

[happygirl]

I have to admit......I did kind of tear up (ok I was crying) while we were parking yesterday thinking my DH's sitting here complaining that it's hot and these poor Marines are standing out in the heat all day working thinking it's one of the best jobs they could get considering their other possible assignments. I can't thank them enough or share the gratitude and appreciation I have for all of our armed services members and their amazing families.



Plenty of prayers and pixie dust will be sent your way - feel free to store them up until you're ready to use them!

When you see on the pic of kate before and after there is a green arrow at the top click on it

Agreed! We do cover quite the range!



Welcome! Good luck in getting caught up! We've tended to talk quite a bit the last couple of weeks (after commenting that we wouldn't have anything to talk about until the new season started!).



Ok I'm not the brightest bulb in the package....I couldn't find the pictures you're (and others) referring to. I only saw the three of Kate (the before and after and the two with her body guard) and the 92 other "celebrity" ones (thinking it might be in there). I didn't see another link but I'm sure I missed it!

I can't find them either...

Ok....If you click on the pink arrow to see the next of the "3" pictures with the Kate before and after, for me it brings up another window. If you click through those three pictures and click again (like there would be a fourth picture), it takes you to another set of pictures (I didn't realize this the first time). Does that make sense?

I wonder why the bodyguard is hanging around the house with them? Maybe they are about to leave?

 

[1stluvispooh]

Ok a couple of things bother me.
1) Does the bodyguard look like a bodyguard to you? To me he looks like the guy who owns the security company. I always thought that a bodyguard was suppose to be over 6 feet and have biceps the size of my thighs.
2) Kate seems like she is loving all of the extra attention. What I mean is the picture of her coming out of Target she's all smiles. (now I love Target but I really feel like I smile from ear to ear when leaving) And the tape of her and "The bodyguard "at the airport and she gets to the car and waves at the papperozzi! I mean if you want them to leave you alone don't you ignore them?
3) Why does Kate need a bodyguard? To shield her from 1 of us coming up to her with some unsolicited parenting or marital advice?

As for they look "normal" in their latest pictures. You have to remember that this couple thrived on chaos! They were always screaming at each other. Just think of all the stuff that never got on camera.

Yup, just click the pink arrow and then another window will open up. Then click the pictures a couple of times to start them.

I thought they were VERY interesting, particulary the ones of them at home. Jon had just gotten caught and there he was playing with the dogs in the yard? And Kate was standing right there? And the bodyguard too? I'm really starting to wonder what the heck is going on, if this is really media hype or what. I'm torn what I'd like to believe....on the one hand if it is media hype then J&K would still be together but man oh man is that ridiculous to get ratings. On the other hand, if the media is right then things are horrible between and they are heading for trouble. Either option sucks pretty much!

Also, this quote made me laugh!!!

3) "Why does Kate need a bodyguard? To shield her from 1 of us coming up to her with some unsolicited parenting or marital advice?"

Ya, one of us crazy Moms will run up to her, hold her down and then demand she tell us how to make Monkey Munch or organize the kitchen!!

Another family is going the reality route.

LOS ANGELES, May 11 (UPI) -- The new U.S. reality TV show "Raising Sextuplets" will chronicle a couple's adventures as the first-time parents of sextuplets, WE tv announced.

The six-episode series is to debut June 11, the same day as Jenny and Bryan Masche's children's 2nd birthday.

The premiere will be preceded by a special encore airing of the WE tv original documentary, "OMG! Sextuplets!"

"From tackling differences in parenting styles to figuring out logistics of taking six toddlers out for dinner, 'Raising Sextuplets' is a no-holds-barred look at the realities of life with multiple babies," the network said in a news release.

Oh great, another thread to keep up with! I can barely keep up with this one.

After reading all the hatred people have against her, If I were here I would have a body guard too!

I'd be more worried about the uberfans myself. If you think about it, all the people that need restraining orders or hurt celebs are their #1 fans.

------------------
"Hate" is a very strong word.. Do you really think people "hate" her - or do you think people don't approve of how this whole thing has gone down?

Just because people don't approve of some of the things that she (and Jon) have done, doesn't mean that they "hate" them and would actually try to physically harm them.. Personally, if I were in Kate's shoes and felt there was any kind of "danger" involved, the body guards would be for the kids - not me..

 

[themilesfamily]

Another family is going the reality route....OMG!Sextuplets!...

Hmmm...I wonder how Kate is going to feel about another family infringing on her niche market. Perhaps she'll call them up and scream, "Nobody gets paid but us!!!!!!"

Just kidding.

That picture of Kate and the kids + the bodyguard that's on TMZ. Which guy is the bodyguard? I'm assuming that it's the big (not very attractive) guy in the very back, but I think Kate should go for the silver fox right behind her.

OK, the posters who said she looked unhappy in her other pictures and that it was so "telling" (so sick of this term, by the way), look what happens when she smiles. Darned if they do, darned if they don't.

Harp on her because she doesn't smile when leaving the "grocery store" aka tanning salon. Harp on her because she does smile when leaving Target.

 

[themilesfamily]

If you want to keep all of the supposed paramours straight, check this out. I thought it was really funny -- but just a warning that others may find it tacky. I know it's not nice to joke about someone else's marital problems -- but I thought it was well-written in a comedic kind of way.

I think is the silver headed guy. Who I always see her with

YES! I can respect that.

LOL.. I'm still trying to figure out why a photo of her coming out of Target is so "newsworthy".. I guess I'm not "reading" enough into it..

People are never happy unless they can ripe Kate to shreds. Exmaple people were mad they were getting government assistance and "freebies". So she gets a job doing speaking engagment and interviews then people gripe becauses she not home with the kids 24/7.
