Jon and Kate Plus 8, Official Thread-Part 4

On that we can agree.. They love those kids - and although they don't always make the best decisions - all of which have been hashed out here - I can't imagine them ever, ever sending them "away".. Good grief - they would need a hundred body guards - especially if there are people out there who truly "hate" them!

I literally laughed out loud

The only thing I can't think of is maybe since the little ones will be in Kindergarten. Is maybe the will do a more of a "grown" show featuring what they do seperatly

There is no way this is true. As I was reading it I just kept seeing the desperate housewives. They say everything they do is for their kids and this would not be for their kids. I think someone is just messing with everyone.

--------------------------

What a cruel thing to do.. Can you imagine if this crap somehow came to Mady & Cara's attention?? This whole thing is spiraling out of control.. What is it going to take for Jon & Kate to realize that they no longer have any control over what is out there for their children to see - or hear from others??

this is the interview I was talking about pages and pages ago.

the lady that say she hopes it's all true .. I seriously to her, but the ladies that used to work with her that say that the behavior is very Kate, but they feel sad for her? I found myself very interested in what they had to say, they seem very believable to me.

That article is the dumbest thing ever!! There is no way Jon and Kate would agree to sending their kids away and least of all Switzerland!

And having a "mysterious" stranger move in next door to see if it will tempt Kate???
Maybe Jon and Kate's street address will be Wysteria Lane.

Don't forget that tonight at 9 pm on Etv they are having the Jon and Kate-twisted fate. I am sure it will be everything we already know. I mean, nothing gets past us here!

Do we really think that Jon's mother not only kept her ex-husband's last name even after she remarried, but that a Korean/Hawaiian woman would be named Pamela? That made me chuckle.

The last name no, I don't think she would keep that, but she could have the first name Pamela. There are a lot of Karean women who were born with different names, but once here changed them. I know this because I know a few of them and they told me that.

Actually, I'm pretty sure her name is Pamela. I think it was in an interview I read w/Jon. I'll try to look for it, but I'm not sure I can find it. I think his Dad's name was Thomas.

Okay, I just tried to do a websearch and all that is coming up is the current article. I really don't feel like looking through thousands of pages.

It just seems weird she would go by her Ex hubby last name when she was remarried

I don't think her last name is Gosselin, but I remember reading her first name was Pam. Who knows, I've read so much recently it is all jumbling together.

Child actors and other young performers are protected by Pennsylvania labor law, but it's not clear whether the law applies to reality TV. Investigators will have to decide whether the Gosselins' house in southeastern Pennsylvania is essentially a TV set where producers direct much of the action -- in which case the law may apply -- or a home where the kids aren't really working but are simply living their lives, albeit in front of the cameras

I thought the part of the above quote was interesting, "whether the Goosselins' house in southeastern Pennsylvania is essentially a TV set where producers direct much of the action"
I don't have anything to add to the discussion right now I just thought that was an interesting way to think about the situation. I had wondered if the house was a write off for taxes because of its intrinsic value to creating the show.

Everything I have found so far says her name is Pamela gosselin

 

[3prettyprincesses]

Holy cow! I just read that article Madge posted about the kids going to boarding school. It can't be true. Yet, it would solve their investigation by the PA child labor dept. That's just weird. I read the whole thing and kept expecting them to say something sarcastic so I would know it was a joke. I can't imagine Jon signing on to do a show with ONLY Kate! Wow, that sure wouldn't be pretty..."Jon can you please breath a little quieter"..."Kate can we hurry this up please Deanna is waiting at Legends for me!" Sooo not a good idea!

 

[TotalSnowWhite]

I'm a Polynesian girl named Jessica. Some of my family has very ethnic names, but there is also a Christopher, Janet, Michelle, etc.

OK, I actually caught up on all my other threads during my mini-breaks today, so that is all I got out of the last couple pages of the thread.

We're spending the next two days at the country house (aka miles from civilization with no internet or tv), so if anything huge happens I'll be out of the loop. Michelle, text me if I miss any breaking news. Real news.

 

[bigmerle1966]

Alright, you all need to stop posting right this minute! I come in to 10 more pages since I last posted and I will 20 behind then!

 

[happygirl]

I'm watching ET and they are saying Jon and Kate and TLC are being investigated by PA Labor board to make sure no child labor laws were broke

 

[Quacktatty]

okay fine I'll give you all the Pamela part as I can't find anything to dispute it but I still think keeping the Gosselin name makes the whole thing sound vey fishy.

They could have used the last name Gosselin so that people would know who it was and catch your attention
