Kate Gosselin Is A Hit on The View WATCH HERE!, Kate's Airbrushed Abs? Botox NO, Jon's Hideous Tattoo

Kate Gosselin: 'Boobs, no! Tummy tuck, yes!' Extra TV.Com

Jon and Kate Gosselin Reality TV mom Kate Gosselin joins the women of "The View" in an episode to air on Friday, and things got a little heated when they discussed her rumored plastic surgery procedures. Getty Images Gosselin is used to defending herself in the media, but was uncomfortable discussing the work she's had done. "I had a tummy tuck... we all know that," she told the women. Joy Behar was persistent on finding out about her chest size and if she's tried Botox. "How bout your boobs? Those are yours?" asked Joy. 

"Why is it so fascinating?" Kate answered. "I did say no... I got a good bra." Adding, "Botox, absolutely not! Boobs, no! Tummy tuck, yes." Clearing up more rumors, the mom of eight once again said she has no plans to become the next "Bachelorette." "I'm not the next 'Bachelorette'... Now I am a bachelorette, but I'm not the next 'Bachelorette'." The former "Dancing with the Stars" contestant said that having a man in her life is "not on my calendar anymore." Check out Friday's "The View" on ABC to see Kate's entire interview.

'Jon and Kate Plus 8': Kate Gosselin does not have 'airbrushed' abs: Examiner via US Weekly.com


First, she had to face allegations of breast implants -- then, the topic of the day became botox injections. When will it all end for former "Jon and Kate Plus 8" star Kate Gosselin? The reality TV is now facing a speculation (via a new Us Magazine piece) that she may have "airbrushed" abs. However, an expert by the name of Dana Enochson suggests the truth -- it was really all just part of a good tan: "When I look at Kate's pics from the previous year and then compare them to these, you can see she is taking advantage of a good tan to make her abs and arms look much more defined! Why waste that hard work at the gym without emphasizing it with a tan?

"It doesn't look like she's had her stomach specialty airbrushed to draw in ab-muscle definition, but a spray tan will make your abs look 10 times better." Kate Gosselin probably doesn't have a whole lot of time to spend worrying about this mess -- after all, she does have eight kids (and an upcoming TLC special) to worry about. Are people being too hard on Kate Gosselin right now? Let me know your thoughts with a comment and stay tuned for more of the latest "Jon and Kate" news.

Jon Gosselin's Dragon Tattoo Was His Girlfriend's Idea: Radar.com

Jon Gosselin’s already infamous dragon tattoo was the idea of his new girlfriend Ellen Ross, the tattoo artist who created it. And not only is the back-covering work of art certain to last for life, but he thinks their relationship might also go the distance. Todd ‘Sharkbait’ Williams -- who went to high school with Ross in Pennsylvania and now works at Never Say Die Tattoo Parlor in Harrisburg, PA -- revealed that he became convinced that Jon and Ellen's relationship is for real when Ross recently introduced him to the former reality TV star dad and asked him to sketch the giant dragon for his back. “I have known Ellen for several years,” Williams told RadarOnline.com. “Ellen is a really good person and they really like one another – she is not the type of girl who would go out with him because he is famous. “She genuinely likes the guy and he seems to really like her too.”

Ellen talked to both Gosselin and Williams about them pairing up for Jon’s elaborate artwork, so he wasn’t surprised when the dad-of-eight came in with a Japanese style dragon design. After some tweaking and bouncing around of ideas, they came up with the final image that will be forever imprinted on Jon’s back. Gosselin saw the dragon as a sign of new beginning in his life, and he chose it after “doing a lot of soul searching,”“It was done over two sessions of around six and seven hours each. Jon had a very good threshold for pain,” Williams revealed.“Despite what people may think of him, I found him to be a really friendly guy. He was always talking about his kids and where he has traveled to around the world - he was a very good client.” Williams, 24, admits he was nervous about the final results of the tattoo because the intricate artistic details. Fortunately, Jon and his girlfriend were “really pleased” with the final results, which Williams promised him will remain unique. He added: “Jon’s design is a ‘one-off’ there will not be anyone else walking around with it on their body."

  1. Hello everyone! tomorrow I am taping The View since I will not be home. As soon as I get ahold of the footage, this fan site will be the first to have it!

    Allison thank you for telling me about Kate's top I want at Victoria's Secret. If you have a link could you send it to me? The only one I found is a dress which looks very similar which I love as well. You can see it here:

  2. It's getting rather ridiculous that Kate should have to be grilled on such things. She has 8 wonderful kids, she has one new show that's already premiered and another in the tubes, she was on DTWS, and, instead, she gets hassled on other's obsessions with her body.

    I hate to break it to the creator of Jon's tattoo, but I doubt that there will be a lot of clamor by others to get that tattoo.

    ReplyDelete
  3. I'm amazed with the boob speculation. Again, who cares? Geez, it's her body and she's worked hard to get fit.
    Jon's tattoo is truly ugly! Yuck! Waste of money. But it's his body too.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Kate spent two days getting her hair extensions.
    Jon spent two days getting his tattoo.
    I think she got a better deal.

  5. I'm so sorry to say this, but what idiot over at US Magazine was so desparate for a Kate story that they would "claim" that she airbrushed her abs? That is the stupidest thing I ever heard. It's almost as bad as the trolls on the other sites that are "running" with the story. lol

    It's amazing the low people will stoop to get a story.

    ReplyDelete
  6. I can't wait to see her on The View today!! I hope Whoopi just isn't even there altogether. She sucks. I wonder how many rumors she believes as true bc she doesn't research her stories she will bring up today. She is ridiculous. I think Kate has gotten to be so pretty over the past year or so, and she deserves it. All that upkeep takes time! lol But I'm looking forward to what she'll be wearing today- would you have ever thought after seeing the very first ever Jon & Kate + 8 special way back when, that we would think of her as pretty & fashionable someday???

    ReplyDelete
  7. I know what you mean Sarah but I thought the Kate from those days was soo pretty. It was a different kind of pretty, but occasionally I still miss it. I was a little surprised that Kate got so serious on the fashion track, but then again when Kate takes something on watch out she gives it her all. I just love the message it sends her kids

  8. Remember Steve's wife with a VS bag on Mothers Day? Could be that the top was the gift.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I am so excited about The View! I have 30 mins til the show and I hope Whoopi and Joy aren't annoying!!

    ReplyDelete
  10. She was a pretty typical mother with infant(s) and toddler(s). She was lucky if she got a chance to shower & wash her hair & if the sweats and t-shirts didn't have baby substances all over them and she definitely hadn't lost all of the baby weight. She also didn't look as if she was out in the sun all that much.

    However,If you look at photos taken of her even after she had the twins, she might not have been fashionable but she wasn't a frump and she was blonde & very pretty.

    I think she's rediscovered that person & achieved a lot more than the pre-6 Kate would have ever dreamed in looking great.

    ReplyDelete
  11. PeggyP, your last comment was right on. I had 3 kids fairly close together and for a long time I lived in sweats, flannel pants & baggy t-shirts. The first time I got fixed up to go to a formal dinner my husband couldn’t keep his hands off of me! Who knew he was tired of the frumpy mommy look? Ha ha. If this is Kate’s time to indulge and feel good about herself I totally get that.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Dee~ What a great observation! If Steve's wife gave that to her for Mothers Day, then she needs to be my new best friend stat because I live that top so much u just may get the beach dress they still have on sale!

    Will be getting soon to watch The View on tape. Can't wait! Will have it up on this site soon I promise!

  13. Kates hair looks blondier i loveeee itt And jon tattoo is nice but kinda big lol thanks 4 the new post

    ReplyDelete
  14. Between my internet being down and going out of town, I have been so out of the loop with the Gosselin's! Finally getting to catch up....
    I'm a little shocked at Jon's new tattoo. Not so much the fact that he got one, but just the pure size of it! Looks like it covers most of his back from the picture! Regardless of what I think- If he's happy with it, great.
    As for Kate's rumored botox, boob job, brushed abs.. whatever it may be. I agree with most here- who really cares?! If she did then good for her, and if not, I think she is beautiful anyway!
    I didn't get to see Kate on the View, but I guessing she did well. ;) I know she liked it a lot the other time she did it.
    I hope everyone has a great Independence Day! Happy 4th!

  15. She rocked it on the View...and she looked soooo beautiful...I loved her hair :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. Kate was awesome today. She seems soo much less angry and more confident than she used to be. I like that she left Jon completely out of it.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Your Welcome Baby mama!! Unfortunately I don't have a link :( I have been searching their website everyday since I saw it in their magazine and no luck. I think I'm going to call Victoria's Secret tomorrow and ask them why it's not online and if it's still available. I will let you know the verdict! :)

    ReplyDelete
  18. Whoopie was her usual rude self (plus she was wearing an insanely ugly frumpy outfit). Sherry was definitely the nicest to Kate. Kate's getting better at getting a word in edgewise and doing it graciously, but I think that the regulars could be a whole lot nicer to guest hosts.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I put up a little clip of Kate from today is on the site for you to see. It was to me the most important clip, because she basically gives Joy the look of death and answers all the questions the haters want to know. She handeled it soo much better than I ever would. I would have once again gotten all Wolverine on them. lol

    I mean really, Elizabeth saying "ohh lets go through them one by one" was class at it's finest..(insert snark here). The entire episode will be up soon!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Someone should be in charge of dressing Whoopie. I think that Stacey & Clinton would take one look at that outfit & decide that this was the one person who was beyond their ability to reform. You'd think they could do her hair so that that one lock didn't keep swinging down over her nose. I

    found it ironic that Whoopie, who scowls most of the time, was lecturing Kate about Kate needing to smile more now that she was making a career in show business. Also, what was the point of switching, without any real transition from Kate's interrogation to a discussion on whether you should tell your spouse if you cheat.

    I thought Kate was gracious and learning how to get a word in edgewise without. Sherry was the only one who was nice, not just to Kate but to her fellow regulars. Without Barbara or, formerly, Meredith, the regulars are a pretty joyless bunch.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I meant to say Kate is learning to get a word in edgewise on The View without resorting to the rudeness that the regulars do.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Adults choose how to dress themselves, and how to style their hair. They don't have to answer to anyone. (If it's true for Kate, logic dictates it's also true for Whoopie Goldberg.) I've always liked Whoopie because she makes no apologies for who she is and doesn't cater.

    When you don't LIKE someone, you use anything you can find to demean them. It's human nature I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  23. It was an ugly outfit. I'd have said that if it had been Kate wearing it. Yes, adults choose how to dress & do their hair. Whoopi made a spectacularly bad choice and then lectured Kate on how to present herself in public.

    ReplyDelete
  24. CraftyMomof3--Have a wondeful vacation in my home state of Wisconsin.

    Kate's looking great! She did fine on the View and it was so good to see her again.
    It certainly doesn't matter if she has had Botox. As for the boob job--I saw a photo of her lifting one of the girls at a playground and I have no doubt that she has implants--and good for her. Until I saw the View yesterday, I didn't know it wasn't common knowledge just like her tummy tuck, and why keep it a secret? The proof (just my opinion) is how she looks consistently good with and without a bra--in all types of attire. From my own experience after losing 50 lbs, yes--you certainly can get a good bra but it doesn't work for going braless. The bottom line is--it's her body, her business, her money and her life. She is taking good care of herself and doing the best she can. She's an inspiration to me.

  25. Robin~ You took the words out of my mouth and said it better than I ever could! People will really look for anything they can to demean someone simply because of who they are. I just think it's sad and stems from some insecuity within themselves.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Baby Mama & Robin-There's a statement popularly attributed to Sigmund Freud (who probably didn't say it), "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." I think it's an ugly outfit because I would think it was an ugly outfit no matter who was wearing it and what I thought of the person, and I would think that Whoopi is unacceptably rude to many guests even if she regularly made the 10 best dressed list. I've seen photographs of her when she does dress becomingly. I don't mean turning into a fashion victim wearing what is on the runway no matter how it looks on her. I mean flattering clothing that is age-appropriate and fits her personality and build well. She can look great.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Whoopie can dress any way she wants but I don't like many of attitudes and the way she treats some people. I guess if people can call Kate out on the way she talks to some people, I can call Whoopie out for the same thing.

    How juvenile some people are. First, they made up stories about Steve being Kate's lover, now they are making up stories about Kate and Jamie. It is so junior high.

  28. The fireworks have started! A day early and it's great. I get to put the kids to sleep and enjoy it with my family..Its so great to be with people you haven't spent time with in a while. Cause I don't cook! ;)

    I hope everyone is having a great July 4th weekend! xoxoxox

  29. Factoid from me: I am old enough to me Kate's mother. (I have 3 kids - 37, 34, 31). I had my under-eye lids done and a breast reduction. (Best thing I ever did). I am not a celebrity nor am I rich. I'd do more but I'm relatively content with my age...

    I recorded The View but haven't seen it yet. Will most likely see it here thanks to BabyMama.

    Drove to Washington DC from NJ today with our visiting British friends. Great day. On the way home we saw fireworks from Delaware, Philly, and all up the Jersey side of I-95. It's almost embarrassing with the British visitors to see all the celebrations, but they'll see more tomorrow when we take them to a ball game!

  30. HolliDay~ Let me know if you can watch it. It's the entire program so it may take a bit to load.

    UGH I swear Jon Tweeting to everyone that would listen about him and hisfamily at the game tonight made me puke. Not that it wasn't wonderful that he went with his kids, but that he HAD to take his GF. Ellen is his new undercover nanny. lol

  33. Happy 4th of July everyone! Sorry to hear about the weather. It's of course it's going to be hot & muggy today. So I am enjoying the current beautiful breezes before later today! I hope everyone has a wonderful amazing day! I will post as soon as I see anything about what Kate & the kids did today :)

  37. Par, spot on with your observation. The latest attack on Kate is so high school! Along with the bullying, I'm convinced their mental development never progressed beyond high school. It's sad for them. I guess one just has to pity them.

  38. Aww what is it about JW that she continues to fly where she knows she isn't wanted on a day when people are enjoying their lives?? lol Aww we must pray for those that can't even keep it together on a National Holiday..

    HAPPY JULY 4TH! We made it back to NYC to watch thje amazing fireworks..Please watch on NBC! XOXOXOXOXOX

    WELCOME BACK LINDA WE MISSED YOU! XOXOXOX

    ReplyDelete
  39. It's a great day! I tried to think of something positive about the fly lady that keeps flirting where she isn't wanted. Maybe we could take up a collection to pay for a visit for her for professional help. Or, if it's that she cannot afford her medications, I know the kind and caring folks here would be glad to contribute towards keeping her stocked with the meds she needs. Not being snarky, really! The woman needs help. No sane person would spend so much time tracking a person she doesn't care about. Just doesn't make sense.

  40. Our street looks deserted. After the block party last night, I think everybody rolled out to vacation spots at the lake, the beach, or the mountains. Hope all you US folks had a great Fourth weekend!!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Does anybody know where Kate planted the trees? Hopefully it's to screen the driveway near the garage. Nobody should have to put up with paps on their own property. I realize that they can climb the trees near the fence. Maybe all rhe lower limbs could be cut off?

  42. OT to Baby Mama & other scrapbookers - robynstamps at YouTube has sone fantastic videos on scrapping and cricutmachine.com is having a sale & they often have neat things in their $5 bargain bin.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Linda "Original--Yes it sure is a small world.

    It rained on and off all day but cleared up in the evening for the fireworks.

    About a month ago I got a Cricut and am just learning how to use it. I used to be a Creative Memories consultant and have enough supplies to keep me busy for a lifetime. Thanks for the YouTube and bargain bin tips!!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Good afternoon everyone~ Linda I can't even function with my Cricut unless I watch Robyn. I always go to her website mypinkstamper.com whenever I get the chance, she makes everything seem so easy! The things she has made on her site are amazing!

    Corrina welcome back! If I hadn't done this site I would have definetly created a Scrapbooking blog. It's what I love to do. But alot of it is ver expensive and time consuming. You really have to get motivated which is why I actually PAY to go to Church once a month to scrap with the ladies. Very fun. I love Creative Memories, but they have some stiff competition nowadays!

    Kate and I are right on track with getting the kids into the pools today. What pisses me off is that Radar Online is contantly putting their headlines as "Kate Shows off Bikini body". First of all she was grabbing a ball to throw back into the pool and they took 20 shots from a tree. She's not showing off anything, they are prying into her private property. She wasn't even in the front of her house. The trolls with mouth off as usual and it just needs to be clarified that she can walk wherever she wants on her own property. She's not "looking" for those idiots to snap a photo of her. I'm just so glad she ordered those trees. Chances are we may see a few people falling out of them in the Fall...

    FYI: Kate looks amazing in her bikini..looking good is truly the best revenge!

  45. I was just thinking of Kate and her privacy issues, when I went out to the shed. I would love a privacy fence around the back yard, we have chain link because I have a pajama habit. If I am staying home all day and cleaning or something, I am more likely than not in my pajamas, and I don't want the neighbors judging me as lazy because I like to clean in something loose and comfy. It just made me think of what Kate has to put up with on a massive scale.

    ReplyDelete
  46. WOW! Kate looks hot...good for her!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Baby Mama--The scrapbooking possibilities are just endless now--and I miss having the ladies here for classes. I've heard they get to use the teacher's Cricut -- they didn't even have those when I was in the business.

    Kate sure is looking great!! I don't know much about her yard, but it's amazing how she can't seem to be anywhere out of camera range.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Corrina~ Sorry to stay off topic, but whaty is the teacher's Cricut? Is that the smaller version I have seen around? My cousin spent all that money, and now with kids she is just too busy to Scrapbook with me anymore. She makes those Photo Books on Kodak.com. I have to say thaey are beautiful and even come hardbound. But too me nothing beats making a page by hand..

    But lets face it, does anyone know or care now adays how much work and through goes into a handmade card? lol

    my2girls~ yup Kate looks amazing. Makes me want to not have dessert tonight! lol. I love how people attack how she looks when people only wish they could rock a bikini like that. I have goals now, and I hope to achieve them by the end of the Summer. That was my motivation..lol

    Tashapork~ I was in New Jersey today and all the developments are wide open in the back. Everybody can see your business and that drives me nuts. It looks odd though that the only home with a large pool is all fanced in. Still no privacy though, I can't imagine Kate living there!

  49. I can hardly wait for the next episode. I think it's going to be so funny. Chasing chickens is hard but funny work.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I enjoy the scrapping if it is a group. I think I get as much out of the laughter of the group as I do the projects. I've thought in terms of video and DVDs for so long that it's fun to go back to just "stills." my problem is that my kids want to play with my stuff. When the young twins were in the 2nd grade their teachers were into scrapping so each child did a memory book for the year. The spelling in the journaling is a riot. What treasures.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Linda I wish there were more groups around me that did that kind of thing, but sadly there isnt. People would rather go somewhere else then swap houses each week like we used to. And yeah the kids get all in my stuff, so I can only do it late at night, then I'm on ther computer before bed and lose all my mojo. Thats why I need the women as like a support group! I truly enjoy more getting on the computer with my cheese and crackers at night before bed.

    I also can't wait for the new episode, I really wish it was next week. If this is the second episode and Jon mentioned there are only 5, then I guess they truly are doing only 1 per month. I wish there were more! Without that show, I haven't really been watching TLC. I'm kinda over Cake Boss, it lost my intrest. What else is good on there anymore??

    ReplyDelete
  52. I've never gotten into the Cake Boss. Too much yelling. My heart belongs to Duff & Co at Charm City Bakery in Baltimore who do The Ace of Cakes on the Food Network. Now THOSE people not only make amazing cakes but have a great time doing it. My one niece met Duff once and she said he's as nice & friendly in person as he comes across on TV.

  54. Baby Mama--The teacher's Cricut is the regular Cricut--just owned by the teacher of the class. I recently scanned all of my husband's old family pictures and made a book on Snapfish for his sister who we only just found out about!---(that's a whole other story) That was the quickest way to get all of those memories to her and to be able to make copies for her children.

    Linda--Oh yes-the group support is so much fun and we all learned from each other too. Some people had so much stuff that they used a rolling suitcase to bring it to class. Sometimes we had a weekend "scrap" and they could leave all their projects here after class Friday nite and we continued Saturday. How nice to have those memory books your twins made in 2nd grade.

    Is the new episode July 11th? I sure miss the
    Monday night shows--I really looked forward to those. I just realized now they are airing reruns on Discovery Channel in the evenings.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Baby Mama - It was neat that you posted the photo of the watermelon snacks that the kids and I did for a block party. It wasn't an original idea but something the kids and I saw on TV and thought "we can do that." It was just slices of watermelon cut with a star cookie cutter and skewered. We saved the end for the base. On TV they also skewed blueberries and pineapple strips. We weren't able to do that but I think it turned out fine with just the watermelon.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Linda thank you for letting me post your snacks on such a hot miserable working day. Then I leave to stop at a few shops and THEY didn't have or had problems with the AC too. I came home miserable with a headache from the whole "hot/cold" thing. LOL

    Jon has been really pissing me off lately, and I wasn't even married to him! So I was wondering what everybody thought of this new article from Zapit.com about Jon trying to change his image:

    Jon Gosselin gets a life coach, writes an autobiography: July 6, 2010 2:34 PM ET

    The Dish Rag's worst fears have been confirmed. Jon Gosselin has a life coach.

    And according to Radaronline, she's helping him write his autobiography entitled, "A Slice Of Life: Jon Gosselin's Story." Good luck beating Kate Gosselin's three books, two of which debuted on the New York Times list at No. 5.

    Life coach Sylvia Lafair, who's written a book called "Don't Take It to Work" and espouses a self-improvement philosphy called OUT (Observe, Understand, Transform), says Gosselin's book will be "about having eight kids all at once when he was under the age of 30."

    Oh, we smell a "poor Jon" coming on.

    "It includes some of the lessons that Jon has been learning with helpful hints on how he is working to reframe his relationship with his family including his two brothers and his mother," Lafair adds, including some discussion about how his father's death affected him.

    Lafair -- who has been working with Gosselin for a year -- says the former reality TV star is making progress. She says he now has a more thoughtful way of asking questions and is becoming a more effective father. She explains, "Watching him is like a vaccination that's taking effect."

    Does the vaccine protect him from being infected by fame again? Will you buy Jon Gosselin's autobiography? We have to ask.

  62. I have news for Jon. Kate was also under the age of 30 when she became the mother of 8 kids all once. The way Jon keeps hammering away at his age when the kids were born, he conveys very strongly that he sees the kids (and Kate, who very much wanted childrent) as robbing him of his youth. Nice message to send to your kids, huh?!? I've never seen any indication from Kate that she regrets having children.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Thanks Linda, the girl blogs more than I do now! Still enjoying your photo ;)

    PeggyP~ I think my problem lies with the fact that hes gone through quite a few women this year. I don't understand his need to shove this one in our faces and permanently tattoo her name on his body that she approved of. I'm also disgusted that she would be giving interviews and talking to people as if she is a celebrity herself. I respect only a small few of Jon's many GF's for not pimping his name out there while trying to score their 15 min. Once they broke up of course. It really is a disturbing message to give to the kids that Daddy is bringing so many of their "nannies" around only to lose them months later.

  64. OK There is a problem with Blogger today. People are not getting posts through. I don't know why. I'm sorry I posted my comments 5 times (for those that subscribe to e-mail alerts) but even I didn't think they went through! So sorry and please try posting again! xoxox

  65. Shoot. I wanted to answer Philip. IMO Kate GOT a personality lift when she got rid of the boob named Jon. Now she smiles, laughs, worked to exercise and diet her way to a fabulous body. Looking fab is the greatest revenge.
    Feel free to delete Baby Mama.

  66. Baby Mama and Sarah(?): Last year Kate had a GORGEOUS white crocheted cover-up on in North Carolina. It was on one of the Us Weekly covers. I discovered I think through Garb Finder that it was from Victoria's Secret, an outside brand being sold there. Like you with the top, I had to have it! Well I could not find it online on the VS site at all though I found other items from that brand. I tried other sites as well no luck.

    At the time, I was working in the Chelsea part of Manhattan so at lunchtime one day I went into the VS store at 18th and 5th. Low and behold, what did I find? The swim cover-up! Probably won't be as easy to find the top in a store but VS does also have outlet stores and the merchandise there is fairly recent from what I've seen. Also, if you see other items you like just because the website doesn't have it doesn't mean a store doesn't. If you live in a suburb of a major city, I also find that sometimes it's easier to find stuff in the stores in the city. I must have that tank from Ann Taylor Loft that Kate also has in multiple colors from last year--I went around last year to different locations in Manhattan and got different colors on sale. Kate's gonna make me go broke LOL.

    As for The View, I really think Kate needs a different show. I'd like to see her try Regis and or something with only one other co-host. I agree with the other person that said she'd probably do better with Kelly LOL than Regis.

  67. I keep wanting to give Jon another benefit of the doubt. But I swear his actions get dumber by the month! How could he have planned the dragon for a year, Ellen thought of it but he didn't know her until a few months ago, and he got the life coach therapist over a year ago. Somebody buy the guy a daytime so he can keep his story of the week straight. And to honor his mother? I thought Korean traditionalists feel that mostly it's criminals that get tattoos. Did this change? Or did he change his ethnicity again? Or religion? He's one big confused guy!!!

  70. I will read Jon's book from the library or thrift store because I am nosy, but I will take it with a grain of salt because Jon's version of truth changes regularly. My concern about his book is whether or not it would be appropriate for his kids to see because they will, maybe not now, but they will and I hope he is very cognizant of that fact.
