andPOP - Pop Culture With Substance

When I was ambushed this morning with yet another sickening “Jon and Kate” story, I asked for the first time:  ”Who the hell is taking care of their eight children?” For the past month, these two have been the subject of constant interviews and “celebrity” sightings, but I never see their kids with them.

Yet Kate Gosselin claimed that she did it all for the kids, but it’s clearly not the case. Several testimonies from sources close to the family, including her estranged husband Jon, reported that the show was having a negative affect on the children. The layers of bullshit continue to pile on.

Gosselin’s tortured desperation for attention has shoved her entire family into the wrong spotlight. Along with the Balloon Boy fiasco, they’ve set an example for prostituting their children – and dignity – for the opportunity at fame and wealth.

Jon Gosselin, 32, and girlfriend Hailey Glassman, 22, are taking a break according to E! News.

A source called Glassman, the daughter of the plastic surgeon who did a tummy tuck for Gosselin’s ex-wife, Kate, ”very indifferent and noncommittal. And this isn’t the first time she said she can’t take it anymore.”

Glassman said she put up with a lot of emotional abuse from the Jon and Kate Plus Eight star. “Sometimes he has trouble with the truth, and he will dance and dance around his lies. He’s like Jekyll and Hyde. But I still love him.”

Kate Gosselin of Jon and Kate Plus Eight appeared on Today, fighting back tears as she explained she can no longer pay her bills after her soon-to-be ex-husband, Jon, took $230,000 from their joint bank account, reports TMZ.

“You’ve left your children and their mother unable to pay for the roof over their head,” she said. “It’s unacceptable.”

Jon has claimed the children no longer want to do the reality show, but Kate said there was “wailing and sobbing” when she told them production had been stopped.

Kate’s lawyers are heading to court to demand Jon return the money.
