Kat Von D and Jesse James Engaged Again, L.A. Ink Canceled

TLC pulled an Old Yellar on Kat Von D’s show yesterday. The network announced that ‘L.A. Ink’ had been canceled.

They must have found Jesus or got my memo that I thought TLC stood for Totally Lame C.U.Next Tuesday network, because they also canceled ‘Kate Plus 8.’ A statement issued by their reps stated that they were “proud” of what the series accomplished, but the last episode will air on September 15th.

It Is Now ‘Jon & Kate Plus 8′ Minus Jon

jon-gosselin

Now that Kate has Jon out of her life, its about time to get him off her tv show! It a surprising yet hilarious announcement, Jon Gosselin has been dropped from “Jon and Kate Plus 8.” In other words, the womanizer has been fired from the show that made him a household name. The show will simply be renamed “Kate Plus 8.”

Per People:

“Given Jon’s recent antics, there was no way the show could continue to portray him as a doting Dad, not while all this other crap was going on,” a source close to Jon Gosselin tells PEOPLE.

I guess TLC had enough of Jons’ bed hopping and media whoring! After an initial ratings spike last spring when rumors of marital problems came about, the ratings have since dropped steadily after the show started up again in August. Jon won’t be out completely – it is being said he will still continue to to appear on the show, just on a less than regular basis. The show will now focus on their children and Kates’ role as a single mother. Jon has been rumored to be shopping around a reality show about him being a divorced Dad, while Kate recently taped a pilot for a talk show co-starring Food Network star Paula Deen in addition to filling in for Elizabeth Hasselbeck on “The View” during her maternity leave. Jons made it clear in the media lately that he’s less than interested in continuing with the show. But could he be having a change of heart? Jon is currently trying to ‘slow down’ his life a little bit, going as far as to trying to halt the divorce proceedings for 90 days to ‘regain control over the future of our family.’

Per PopEater:

“I regret my conduct since Kate and I separated … I used poor judgment in publicly socializing with other women so soon. Even though we were heading for a divorce, it appeared that Kate had been suffering from this divorce as much as I had. That’s why I asked my attorney to put the brakes on this divorce so I could try to regain control over the future of our family. So Kate and I could join on a cooperative course that would benefit our family — not destroy it,” Jon tells In Touch Weekly. “…it will enable Kate and me to restore our relationship as cooperative parents and to open up our lines of communication. I hope that she will be as receptive and enthusiastic as I am to do what is best for our family.”

Yeah, right Jon. Since when do you care about being a father, as your actions as of late show otherwise? His divorce halting announcement just so happens to coincide with being dropped from the show. Don’t fall for it Kate. A lesser role on the show means less money for Jon. He is just trying to make nice to get his cut of the deal back. He’s worried about being separated from the money not the family.

Michelle Duggar Pregnant with 19th Child

duggar-family-19th-child

This family reproduces so quick that rabbits must be jealous! Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, who are already parents to 18 children ranging from age 21 down to 8 months and with one grandchild on the way, have announced that they are expecting their 19th baby this spring! Nope, thats not a typo my friends! Maybe Jim Bob should consider changing his name to Mr. Jack Rabbit…?

Per People:

“We are so thrilled,” says Michelle, 42. “We just couldn’t believe it is happening.” Jim Bob, 44, agrees: “This never gets old. We are so grateful for each child. We are looking forward to our first grand baby and our 19th child.”

The Duggar’s oldest son Joshua and his wife Anna are expecting their first baby, a daughter they play to name Mackynzie Renee, next month. The Duggars live debt-free in a house they built themselves with their kids, whose names all begin with the letter J: Joshua, 21; twins Jana and John-David, 19; Jill, 18; Jessa, 16; Jinger, 15; Joseph, 14; Josiah, 13; Joy-Anna, 11; twins Jedidiah and Jeremiah, 10; Jason, 9; James, 8; Justin, 6; Jackson, 5; Johanna, 3; Jennifer, 2, and Jordyn-Grace, 8 months. While it is too early to know whether they are having another boy or girl, they already have a list of names starting with the letter J to choose from. The couple have been happily (obviously!) married now for just over 25 years with their lives being documented on their TLC show “18 Kids And Counting.”

I just can’t seem to wrap my head around having that many kids. I have two myself and I’m ready to start my own personal happy hour by noon! But then again I guess after you have a dozen or so, one more added to the mix won’t be that big of a deal. I bet her uterus is crying right about now, screaming “enough!”

Jon Gosselin Now A Fashion Designer – UPDATE

jon-gosselin-starts-ed-hardy-childrens-clothing-line-1

The Jon & Kate Gosselin saga can be compared to a trainwreck; so bad you try not to watch, yet so horrible you can’t help but to! The latest development in all this Gosselin-hoopla – a deal for Jon to design his own line of children’s clothing with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier. Jon’s new girlfriend Hailey Glassman, the daughter of the doctor who performed a tummy tuck procedure on Kate, will also be taking part in this new endeavor. Jon arranged for Hailey, a burgeoning shoe designer, to get a meeting with the Ed Hardy staff to pitch her ideas.

Per People:

“She’ll have a lot of input with Christian,” Gosselin told PEOPLE of Hailey’s involvement. “And I will, too.”

I really doubt this woman studied any kind of fashion in college… Or even stepped foot on a college campus for that matter! Before Jon and soon-to-be-ex-wife Kate had their eight children, he worked as an IT analyst. But since TLC’sJon & Kate Plus 8” his job has been managing the family and meeting the demands of the show. So just how does this make him ready to be a clothing designer? I guess his popularity has something to do with it.

Per People:

“He’s huge,” says the French designer, who may also collaborate with Gosselin on a specialty motorcycle collection. “Everyone knows this family. And everyone will know our clothes. They’ll be fun, easy clothes for kids.”

Apparently, owning an abundance of Ed Hardy shirts while being known as a cheating dad trying to relive your 20s is qualification enough for a seriously easy gig like this. Audigier first approached Gosselin with the idea after seeing him wear his tattoo-inspired shirts on the show and out in public all the time. The Gosselin’s 8 children will will model his designs in ads for the line… Way to go all Joe Jackson and pimp your children out at an early age, Jon!

Yeah, I know… I’m wearing the same “WTH” look on my face as you all are. I’m sure he’ll be another “flash-in-the-pan” reality star turned designer – think Lauren Conrad… Oh I bet Kate is gonna have a field day with this, especially since her own plans for a clothing line were a huge dud!

UPDATE – A rep for the fashion house has called Jon a liar, lair crotch on fire. The statement issued insists Gosselin is NOT creating a children’s line with Hardy.

Jennifer Lopez Outdone by Jon and Kate Plus 8

Jennifer Lopez and Skeletor….er…Marc Anthony were after their own reality show regime for over a year. Since the birth of their twins, TLC and the Lopez clan have been trying to work a tv show deal. “Jon and Kate Plus 8” trumped her chances for a reality show centering around how the J.Lo machine works. TLC wanted the Max and Emme air time while Mama Jen refused to let them put her kids on tv.

After a several stories of Jon being a slutty and having an affair ran rampant through the net and tabloids, a whopping 9.8 million viewers tuned in on Monday night to see how things were going down. This was reportedly the final nail in the Jennifer Lopez reality show coffin.

Via TMZ:

“TLC sources tell us it’s pretty clear the J.Lo ain’t gonna sell tickets anymore, so they have shelved the show. As one TLC source put it, “It was on life support for awhile, and now we’ve just lost interest.”

Oooo I bet Lopez is still livid. I bet she has a Kate voodoo doll complete with reverse mullet and backs her Bently over it nightly.
