Hello Gosselin fans! Its an absolutely beautiful day out and I hope everyone is enjoying this fabulous weekend across the US. Kate & Tony are probably practicing and getting quite nervous about this huge premiere. It's going to be HUGE! The ratings for Dancing With The Stars are supposed to be the highest they have ever been! I hope you come back here and chat on my site about what you think. I will be glued to the computer to post comments for everything going on! Please watch Dancing With The Stars this Monday and click on my icon on the right of my blog to vote for Kate and Tony on line as well as the toll-free number! She needs our votes!Kate & Family Go To Taylor Swifts PA Concert: Examiner.com
The reality TV mom was spotted out on Friday with her dance partner Tony Dovolani
and bodyguard Steve Neild as she prepared to take the kids to a Taylor Swift concert in Philadelphia. Swift is of course one of the most popular young performers in America, and her performance of "You Belong With Me" also earned her a number of awards at the Grammys earlier this year.
While Kate hasn't exactly shared her public thoughts on Swift, Tony was quick to admit to one thing on his Twitter page Friday: "Taylor Swift rocks."
Both Kate and Tony are now in Los Angeles getting set for Monday night's two-hour "Dancing" premiere. Will this recent break away from rehearsals end up hurting them? It will depend, since really much of the performance will teeter on how many votes they manage to pull in from the American public.

Work It, Kate Gosselin: Some Advice from Another Ballroom Dancer Mom
FUNNY KATE MOMENTS: Taylor Swift As Kate on SNL
I can't even tell you how excited I am for DWTS to begin, and how excited I am to see what this year has in store for Kate & the kids!!
ReplyDelete"Kate has known about being on DWTS for more than a year. She wasn't "ready" at the time, even though it was her PR people who pressed DWTS to have her.
ReplyDeleteThat's why she all of a sudden started caring about her appearance, got a boob job, started wearing nothing but heals and sexy clothes to get used to them, started working out like a fiend, started tanning, and is the reason for the weave/extensions in January.
It took her over a year to even be halfway ready for this and it was all planned a long long time ago. Of course, the Jon drama/divorce was a huge monkey wrench thrown in her preparation, but don't believe for one minute she was "asked" to do this anytime recent. Noooooo she knew for a very very long time. She even said it herself, that she's known for a while but couldn't say anything.
This is not uncommon. Most of the stars ( not all ) know many many many months ahead of time that they will be on. Linsay Vonn already knows she will be on next fall. Donny Osmond knew 2 seasons ahead of time when he'd be on.
So, this has been the reason behind the hooker heals, the incesant tanning and exercising, plastic surgeries, and may even be the reason nobody ever knew where she went when Jon had custody ( because she was off somewhere taking secret dance lessons.)
When she starts spouting the crap that she only had 3 weeks to prepare, don't buy it. She's been preparing for over a year. She knew WAY before she gave any hints on Jay Leno's 10@10 that she'd be on this season. It was already a done deal, and is why she was so anxious to get the divorce finalized by the end of 2009."
Fellow zloggers, the above could answer a lot of questions such as why the original episode of J&K+8 Get Rythym never aired and why she wears high heels everywhere - even when they are deemed inappropriate.
However, IMHO, even if the above is true she still needs votes to survive each week and I just don't see the majority of the public buying her credibility as to why she is on the show in the first place since she is NOT a star but someone who exploits her kids.
Folks for the record I won't be watching DWTA; I refuse toadd to the rating numbers. I will count on you guys though to fill me in as to what happens, and if it does appear that she is not a clutz like her 50 sec promo with Tony and it is probably true that she has been taking lessons for the last year, then she is laughing at all of us ... and will continue to do so all the way to the bank.
BTW the other point made on GWOP is that photos were taken of Kate taking 2 tups to a concert when in fact Kate, Steve and Tony left on a red eye to LA. As for the tups it seems they did go to the concert (5 min from the airport) and a nanny who was already there brought them home in a limo.
Regarding what just wondering posted, I would think that Kate did have to know about DWTS for longer than she let on. She would need time to get into shape for it. I don't find it odd though. The only thing I find odd is how she stated it on Leno's show the way she did since she already knew about it.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Taylor Swift concert I don't see why anyone thinks they didn't really go. A redeye flight means a flight very late at night. That would mean they went after the concert. That makes sense to me.
What doesn't make sense to me is that they took only two of the children and two of the youngest and so late at night. I would normally find it really odd that Tony went to the concert with Kate and the girls except for the fact that it seems he took the same flight as Kate. Seems to me they just did it so they could take the plane right after.
I didn't get to comment on Kate on The View. I thought she did a great job when she was being interviewed (aside from her comments about Jon). I don't think she did a very good job as co-host though. In my opinion she spent to much time looking at her card while the people were speaking. It seemed like she wasn't really paying attention sometimes because she was concentrating too much on when it was her time to speak. She didn't speak much either but I imagine it is hard to do when there are so many other hosts trying to get a word in. I personally don't think The View is for Kate. She might need a co-hosting job with only one other host.
I'm going to try to watch DWTS tonight... If my husband doesn't kill me for it.
ReplyDeleteJust wondering - why the heck are you on this blog when you dislike Kate so intensely? By the way, it is spelled "heels" not heals which means to get well.
ReplyDeleteWho cares when Kate got asked to do DWTS? Does it matter? To make that kind of time commitment, work out the logistics, etc You would HAVE to know ahead if time.!!
Kate has worked with a personal fitness trainer for two years now. Why do you assume that any body improvements are plastic surgery only? Please go to Victoria's Secret or other good lingerie store and get fitted with a good bra. An underwire lift will make you look larger and better. Kate has worked hard to improve her physique unlike the couch potato. She doesn't smoke, promotes healthy food, as well as a healthy lifestyle.
Some crones are so jealous that they think only the worst. How very sad. You certainly don't have to like her but for heaven's sake just change the channel and move on. And there is another blog that will let you bash Kate to your heart's content.
Baby Mama,
ReplyDeleteI haven't been around the past few days. Have you seen this one? It's an interview with Tony about Kate.
http://www.tvguide.com/Dancing-Stars/Dancings-Tony-Dovolani-1016489.aspx?rss=things-dancing-stars&partnerid=spi&profileid=dancing#comments
The trip to the Taylor Swift concert was a ruse. They made it look like Kate was being the dutiful Mom and taking her daughters to a concert in Philly when the real truth is this:
ReplyDelete1. Kate, Tony and Steve had to catch a red eye out of Philadelphia International Airport that evening to fly to LA. The concert was less than 5 miles from the airport.
2. The tups were driven back home, alone in the limo that evening, out of site from the paps and escorted by one of the nannies, who was already at the concert, waiting for them to arrive. The other nannie was at home with the rest of the brood that evening.
The concert was a way of getting Kate out of the house on a Friday night, with her kids, in close proximity to the airport, two days ahead of schedule and two days earlier than Kate told the media she would be leaving her kids.
So, the truth is, Kate won't be away from her kids from Sunday till early Tuesday, she'll be away from her kids from Friday till Wednesday. Let's all watch where she shows up next Friday evening.
What do you want to bet that this coming Friday, Kate takes the boys to a 76er's game at Wachovia Center or a Bon Jovi Concert on Wednesday at the same venue, just to sneak out of town.
The twins weren't allowed to go because they would have caused a scene, leaving the venue, without their mother whereas, the two tups would just go along because they didn't know what was really happening."
Schmecky~ Hey we missed you over here. I did not see that article, but I will read it today. I'm excited about today and I put the number up so that everyone has it. How have you been? I think of you as I plan my summer vacation. I feel miserable today, one day its hot and one day its cold and rainy. But on my day off I want to just relax a bit, run a few errands, and get psyched about the show!
ReplyDeleteYou can vote via phone and by the website. You can click on the link on the right. Even my mom swears she will vote! lol
I would also like to say that Just Wondering got this crap from GWOP. Could you laugh at this conspiracy theory? What a joke and NOT true! I leave this crap up because I feel bad Just Wondering makes all this effort to get these lies out there for anyone to believe.
ReplyDeleteFYI: And for the record, I did take moderation off, and I will put it right back on if it gets out of hand. I'm not an idiot as the trolls would like to think, but this is a big day and I din't want people to complain about no open conversation and go to those other crappy sites :) I will be here today to remove anything I dont want.
It is amazing the differences in perspective. I thought Kate showed restraint on The View in referring to Jon. If he isn't paying the court ordered child support he isn't paying it. I think many women would have explicitly said "No the jerk isn't paying it. What a jerkoff schmuck!"
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't put him down in public for his destructive behaviors: the smoking, drinking, clubbing, etc. If he isn't paying the child support, she could have his butt hauled back into court; many ex-spouses do just that! And, rightfully so.
I truly wish somebody who cares about Jon would do an intervention. Maybe Dr. Oz. His lifestyle is a heart attack waiting to happen. He has eight kids and I see him doing very little to see that he is even alive in their lives much longer.
I keep hoping his next "true live" will be a fitness guru who will challenge him to lay off the booze, dump those carcinogous cigarettes once and for all, start eating a healthy lifestyle, and to get fit! Jon is still young and has so much to live for. I really hate to see him continue the smokes and eats until he has a heart attack.
Maybe we could start a campaign of sign holders for outside the fence in PA, and in Utah. Signs that say, "Jon, if you live your kids Quit Smoking." Jon, please eat healthy!" "Have you exercised today?" "Do you know you expose your kids to 2nd & 3rd hand smoking from just being near you?" "If you care about yourself, stop smoking and start exercising!" gosh Jon could get his publicity and just maybe be urged to get healthy.
How about if every Kate badger had to spend that time instead towards urging Jon to get healthy? That way you could spread the caring instead of spewing hatred. I'd love to see Jon get fit and healthy. Wow.
Schmecky - thanks for the link to the tvguide article.
ReplyDeleteLinda,
ReplyDeleteMy issue with Kate referring to Jon is mainly that she wasn't clear about it. Is he not paying child support? Do we know that?
I personally feel she should have just said "I prefer not to comment about Jon" or something to that effect.
She did allude to the fact that Jon wasn't paying so if she's going to go that route then why not just state it that way instead of leaving it open to interpretation. What about not wanting to say anything negative about her children's father? I just think the whole topic should have been dismissed as something she won't discuss. I just feel she always gives a little "passive aggressive comment" about Jon when she shouldn't.
I do wonder if Jon is able to pay his child support. I do wonder if he has an income. I wonder if TLC is still paying him since he is under an exclusive contract. I wonder if he was offered other media jobs and TLC still won't allow it, or if no media outlet will touch him with a ten-foot pole now. What about any other employer? Will he be able to get a job to support his children from anyone? He also seems to be in debt unless that was taken care of in the settlement. So many things we don't know.
I'm not sure if you were serious about the "sign campaign" outside his home but I don't think that would be right because it could upset the children.
I agree though that Jon needs to get his act together big time and he needs to get healthy. I do wonder what he is up to these days. I hope he will be with the children this week, whether we see pics of it or not.
Who knows, maybe he is taking dancing lessons and getting in shape for the next season of DWTS!
Schmecky - I was mostly teasing about the signs. I don't see anything wrong with signs though that say something to the effect of "Please stop smoking. "
ReplyDeleteHey I'd love to see him on DWTS. He'd have to stop the smoking and live fit then. Or he wouldn't even make it across the stage.
Anyone else having a problem with Blogger? I got a double post and now I can't delete one of them. It won't let me sign in either. I may not even be able to post this! Baby Mama, you might want to check with Blogger before DWTS tonight. Maybe it's some of the stuff on your sidebar? I know that can affect it sometimes...
ReplyDelete#1 caregiver,
ReplyDeleteThe "trash can" next to your post only shows up on your own posts so that you can later delete or "trash" any comment you make.
OK Now there is a real problem! My own post got deleted!! WTH? Ok will now go to Blogger and figure out what is going on. I did get e-mails from people that are saying that they cant post..#1Caregiver I am so sorry, please repost!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I thought you were joking but it was hard to tell. lol.
ReplyDeleteBaby Mama, I am planning my next trip to Disney myself! We are planning on 16 nights! I can only book 14 nights online so I hope they allow a 16-night stay. I have to call them but I'm waiting to see if they have any specials for Fall. Right now they only have them listed for the summer.
As for voting for Kate I can't say that I will be voting FOR her, but you never know.... lol. I will say that I do not plan to be voting against her by voting for someone else either.
Personally, I wouldn't have taken the tips to a Taylor Swift concert either by choice. But perhaps it was a wish granted. With all if our kids the younger ones want to mirror the older ones. I've granted "wishes" based on them being earned for behavior, chores, attitude change, etc. Sometimes they weren't the best choices. But in the overall scheme of life I don't think they were harmful. The younger kids see the posters in the older ones' rooms and they want to do those things also. Kate seems pretty levelheaded about their choices for the most part.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there was anything "wrong" with taking the 2 tups to the concert, I just found it odd. But we don't know the why's of it so it's hard to judge. I do wonder though if the older ones are into Taylor Swift why they didn't go. Of course there are a ton of reasons that could make sense, we just don't know them. That's why it's hard to make anything out of it other than stating that it was "odd", in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteWhile I wouldn't say I believe the whole "ruse" of the concert/flight etc I also wouldn't say I don't believe it. I have no idea. I do wonder what it is based on though other than pure conjecture.
Schmecky~ I have a fantastic travel agent named Michelle that plans all my vacations. Shes from MEI Mousefan travel that is affiliated with Walt Disney Word. I highly recommend her. If your interested let me know, she specialized in longer trips, and I just moved my vacation from June to the last week of August to take advantage of the free meal plan. If you don't want ot go then she has codes for 30% the hotel rooms. We always do value resorts, but since Disney changed the dining plan we are now staying at a moderate resort. Im so mad that only moderate and up get the full free dining plan! Anyway we are excited to do other things and plannig a weekend at Universal to see the new Harry Potter theme park. When are you going??
ReplyDeleteOk back to Kate: While I'm not a fan of taking kids so young to a concert, if Taylor hooked them up then why not go! (Just Wondering doesnt realize that Tony himself Tweeted photos from the show) Freebie are for me, and if a star like that sent us tickets or requested us to go meet her backstage I would not miss an opportunity like that. I'm all about loving the freebies!
Those seats were in the nosebleed section. How do you know it was his picture? Why would they be sitting all the way up there if they had comped tickets?
ReplyDeleteTony posted the picture from the Taylor Swift concert. He also told of their flight out at midnight Friday.
ReplyDeleteJust wondering - I'm just wondering how you have such definitive insight into Kate's plans. You seem to state your "facts" with absolute certainty and you have got me curious about your "sources"... You seem to know more about Kate than Kate herself.
ReplyDeleteSchmecky Girl & Baby Mama,
ReplyDeleteTx for your explanation about the trash can. Here I am thinking I was being black balled or something for not agreeing on all things?? I LOL when I read your post! Also, still feel illiterate about this new computer set up. This old dog is still learning something new everyday.
Enough about me, and I too will be watching DWTS tonight. I guess, I now have to figure out how to vote. If the phone lines are busy, busy, what icon do I go to on this site??
Sch. Girl, How do I get to your Blog? I would love to read yours too?
#1Caregiver~ I would never do that to you. No one has to have the same thoughts I do, because apparently I am crazy & living in a Kate Gosselin hovel somewhere with 6 phones for tonight & my Kate Gosselin shirt on! NOT. I was hoping you would see what happens, & if you ever have any questions you contact me directly! I'm missing the people I havent spoken to in a while, and I hope will all this new Gosselin stuff going on I will see some of my oldies! (no age pun intended)
ReplyDeleteAnd here is a good question..Ever since Hailey put a $1,000 hit on Jon, he is no where to be found. Do you think he is really hiding because Hailey's lawyers are trying to serve him? Cause seriously, I need cash, and a few of us on this blog live somewhere near Park City. Anyone who finds him she is dead serious about this money! $200,000 is alot of Cole Haan wedges! lol
Lol @ Baby Mama. I wonder if Jon boy isn't in PA right now as we type. I wonder if Hailey is serious about the money. I wonder if she was smart enough to have him sign paperwork for loans? If not, she's up the creek. If she did, look out Jon.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Kate looks so great tonight! Pam next to her looks like a hot mess! I can't wait to see her dance! odds are 100-1 to win, but I have hope! lol
ReplyDeletehttp://insidetv.aol.com/2010/03/15/dancing-with-the-stars-who-waltzes-away-with-a-win/?icid=main|main|dl2|link3|http%3A%2F%2Finsidetv.aol.com%2F2010%2F03%2F15%2Fdancing-with-the-stars-who-waltzes-away-with-a-win%2F
Hey Baby Mama and Gosselin peeps! I'm growing OLD waiting for Kate...but I'll be voting for her. (shhh. I just voted for Evan too 'cuz he is adorable).
ReplyDeleteI posted the info for Kate on my Facebook.
ReplyDeleteJust Wondering- Are you Jon or one of his many women? Are you one of her so called friends? You sure seem to know alot about Kate. Maybe you should concentrate your hatred efforts on a real cause like domestic violence, child abuse, or any other discusting thing. Your obsessed. Go away!!!! Why does it matter when she left or if she took the kids to the concert, it is none of your or my business when she left. Who cares if she knew 10 years ago she was going to be on DWTS. She can only say what her contract allows her to say. She is not lying she is fufilling a contract.
The Olympic guy did really well. People were only getting crappy scores before him.
ReplyDeleteHolliday~ Miss ya girl! yeah, I'm getting a bit nervous for her. I really hope she nails it or people will have a field day...
I also vote that "just wondering" be sent packing. I know I've been away from posting here for a long time, but I trust this to be a safe place for support of the Gosselin family.
ReplyDeleteHolli Day, I have been away for a long time also. We have just been transfered 800 miles and that is a terrible task. But, I love this site and Baby Mama and I hate ignorant people.
ReplyDeleteShelly~ OMG! I HAVENT SEEN YOU LADIES IN A WHILE! I miss you both,what has been going on with you guys?? Are you biting your nails right now? Pams dress is too shote and Kate's is way too dowdy long. Mom & firends have the phones ready. MONDAYS ARE BACK! Thank goodness
ReplyDeleteHi Shelly. I am about to move from PA to Floria. Not complaining though because winter in the Northeast is worth leaving. Hope you enjoy your new home!
ReplyDeleteKate looks so calm and professional. I don't know how she does it.
WOO HOO! Gosselin fans are B-A-C-K!
ReplyDeleteNicole is the real deal. Can't vote for her though. She's a pro...
ReplyDeleteFlorida (not Floria). Can't even spell the name of the place...
ReplyDeleteBaby Mama, My hubby transferred to Illinois. I had to leave my beautiful warm state of Louisiana. But, I am only 10 minutes from my mom now which makes it so worth it. I am so nervous for Kate, but I have total faith in her. She will be great.
ReplyDeleteHolli Day- Thanks, I do love my new house. The price of living is sure cheaper. Good Luck with your move.
Guys I miss you, this moderation thing was A LOT of work because I deleted a few posts..ones I wanted. Glad to see you both are back and things are going well outside of Gosselin Land! I know what its like to move far far away, I left Jersey to go to New York! lol
ReplyDeleteNicole did great, I love her but I don't think it's fair! 9s???? the first night????
Just voted 10 times for Kate on ABC.com and she didn't even dance yet. 10 is the maximum number allowed per sign-in.
ReplyDeleteFABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePerfect song for Kate. Once she relaxes, she'll be great. Point your toes Kate...we're on your side.
ReplyDeleteTHANK GOD FOR CARRIE! I was pissed when Bruno said she was being passed around like a shopping cart..WTH? Was that a jab at us moms?? I'm freaking out waiting for the score right now...
ReplyDeleteWow. Relax and have fun Kate. What courage to try something like this! I'm proud of you Kate!!!
ReplyDeleteWell the scores were not great but they get to dance again next week. I have done all my votes.
ReplyDeleteI hope she can relax now and just dance. The song was perfect. She is truly a women.
Pam Anderson is gross. I know I'm old, but I wish I could vote for who I want to go. Miss Piggy.
ReplyDeleteI love Kate...but she does need some work.
ReplyDeleteGo Kate! Show those haters next week!
Kate did really well, I thought. Her work is a testament to how important it is to expose your kids to everything possible out there so they become confidant adults. Clearly Kate's folks didn't do that and she knows it so she's putting herself out there as an adult to show them anything is possible. I think it's very commendable.
ReplyDeleteGood night Baby Mama. Thanks for hanging in...
ReplyDeleteWOW Amy, what a great perspective. Everyone disregard what I said and go with Amy :)
ReplyDeleteOk! So I voted with all 3 of my phones! I was glad that I called early. The phone lines were already open before Kate efven danced, so I as able to get in. I was afriad to tell anyone, didn't want to get her in trouble! But the phone lines are busy and I can't get through so thats a good thing.
ReplyDeletePlease use the link on the right to vote via as many e-mail addresses as you wish ;) Just Wondering can suck it..I would like to see her or anyone else even TRY a quarter of what Kate did! Everyone can judge, but I thought she was fantastic! Get over your fear woman! We are behind you!! All the haters can go scratch!
Lets be honest here folks, she didnt do a great job! However, I voted for her 10 times...lmao!
ReplyDeleteK8 Rocks!!
Don't sweat it for a few weeks. TLC will be robocalling for her and it won't matter about your measly votes. They will be racking up thousands and thousands of votes for Kate from every line and computer.
ReplyDeleteNo other contestant has anything to fear from Kate's performance. And as many times as you voted, BM, I voted for the others. It was quite funny seeing the unabashed hatred on her face for the judge's comments.
ReplyDeleteBarbara~ you used to post on this site over a year ago as one of Kates biggest supporters. Now youve become the biggest pain in the ass hater there is. Not quite undetstanding what happened to you, but dont think for a minute I will allow your crap on my site. Your a bitter nasty person with an axe to grind, and I never figured out why. Now fly away before a house falls on you like your sister
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I think it's ludicrous to compare Kate's dancing with Nicole Scherzinger's....It's STUPID for Nicole to be on the show and I don't understand why the judges looked so surprised that she performed so well..she's a PERFORMER.. of course she can dance with style, grace, and perfect facial expressions!!! It's her job to do so!!! She's a singer and a DANCER.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, Kate didn't dance perfectly but I think she just needs to loosen up and shake that hot body of hers lol I wish she had done the cha cha!
Oh...and...For those of you who don't want Kate to win so you're voting for everyone else on the show, GET A LIFE! Don't watch or don't vote for her if you don't want her to do well. I don't want Shannon Doherty to win but I recognize that it would be ridiculous to vote for every other contestant because I don't want her to win...I just..won't vote for her...WHAT A CONCEPT!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't even fathom spending so much time obsessing and talking about someone I hate so much like you all do..it truly worries me.
Hey Jessica! Nice to see you! Yeah, I was sad that they bashed her, only because I knew the blogs would be licking every ounced of it. But 90% of people on line would NEVER be able to do a quarter of what she did on live TV. Yeah she was scared, but she has ZERO dance expierence. And while I really like Nicole, it really is unfair.
ReplyDeleteWhy does everyone think that Kate has her breasts done? Its called a push-up bra people, get over it. She looked like she wanted to cry and I felt so bad for her. I was there biting my fake nails. I was really mad that they made such a fuss over Nicole when they did know she was going to do great. I really hope she gets over her fear and rocks it next week. Please don't forget to vote
How sad to see people who are so very jealous of other people. I wonder if they have to use that special makeup base that covers up the green tint.
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud that Kate can dance for other Moms. What an inspiration to her children in that you can dream big and shoot for the stars!
It's pretty courageous to go out and try to do something that you've never done before and ... to do it publicly.
There will always be jealous crones.
Hold your head up Kate. We're proud of you for having the courage to try. Not to mention that you are at least trying to support your family.
OMG< I am LMAO at your reply to Barbara. God this site is really rockin with the comments.
ReplyDeleteI think Kate has alot of courage in taking on this dance competition. Sure there were better dancers then her but she did it in her own style. You could tell she was sooo nervious and her smile was stiff. She gots guts!
I think her children will be proud of her and Jon will be too, even though he would never admit to it. Kate just has to relax now and go with the flo of the music. Her fans will keep heron the show.
#1caregiver~ I'm tight with my moderation because I like my site (normally) nice & tidy. I'm not here counting comments or trying to make my site appear bigger than it needs to be based on how many people comment..As always its not the quantity but the quality of the posts and the people that come here.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm around with the troll broom & it's a special Gosselin occasion, I don't mind un-moderating to keep the flow going. I know it's fustrating when it takes me 5 hours to get back to my site to post comments, but I was never one to go with the flow like "other" blogs. Barbara once made a nasty comment about a photo of my baby and as far as I'm concerned, crosses all boundaries of me wanting to kick her ass. Like a fungus, she (like other trolls) keeps coming back just to be annoying and make snide comments.
But this was fun! So we will see how this goes....lol I hope to get more people to vote for Kate, well simply because she tried.. And you have to give her props for that!
That's right I was a former fan, BM. And I have seen the light, I see her for what she is, unlike you. I have no ax to grind, just get sick to death of you and your hypocrisy. And your best buds at CM. There is a lot of stuff going on right now with them and I think if even you knew what some of it was you would be shocked. So, that is what is going on with me. I could care less whether you post my comments or not on your 'sacred' site. There are plenty of places to post other than this one. And as for witches..................
ReplyDeleteHere's something positive- the pro Kate boards on ABC! I'm glad all regular DWTS fans out there aren't buying into the lies about her and are supporting the fact that she is a normal woman who became a hounded celebrity and is making the best of it.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is: Kate, don't quit your day job! Oh wait, she doesn't have one... ;)
ReplyDeleteBut seriously, I actually felt bad for her. She seemed so nervous. I think the only one that did worse than Kate was Buzz. I think Kate seriously just can't dance and I'm not sure that she has it in her no matter how determined she is. Some people just can't dance no matter what. There's nothing wrong with that. Kate herself said she can't dance. She also said she wanted to do the show to laugh at herself but I think now that so many people wanted to see her fail she is taking it more seriously. I think she needs to loosen up and just try to enjoy it.
Sorry Baby Mama, but I thought the "pushing around a shopping cart" comment was funny. I did feel bad though when I saw Kate's face. Tony genuinely seemed to feel for her too. I would have liked to see the kids' reactions.
I thought the Pussycat Dolls chick did great but it's really not fair that she has dance experience, in my opinion. I loved Ochocinco and Niecy best I think. Niecy cracks me up. Pamela Anderson did pretty well. The host was funny.
Erin (is that her name?) and the skating dude did really good but too. The soap actor and Shannen Doherty and the Bachelor guy probably need the most improvement and are probably the ones just above Kate and Buzz. I did enjoy Buzz's performance though! He reminds me of my FIL a lot and I found him entertaining even with the pathetic moonwalk. I think I have to learn all their names!
I've never watched DWTS before and I really enjoyed it! Especially since I started watching it late and got to fast forward through all the commercials! I'm looking forward to next week's show! I didn't vote for anyone though. I can't decide!
Barbara was first a hater at GWop. She then switched over to a lover and now a hater again. Flip Flop. Flip Flop. Flip Flop
ReplyDeleteLook BM, If I ever commented about your baby that was out of line. I do remember looking at all the pictures you put up on the sidebar and I seriously had no idea any of them were yours. For instance, there is one on there now something about heiny wipes, and there are some others. I honestly don't remember it being said any of these were your babies. But if there was a photo of your baby up there at any point, which would surprise me that you would do that, and it was that baby I mentioned, then I will apologize right here in front of everyone, because that was wrong. But I still tell you I had no idea any of the children I have ever seen on this blog were your actual children. Take it or leave it, I offer it sincerely because that would be wrong on all levels.
ReplyDeleteI was never a huge supporter of Kate. Yes, I did like her in the very beginning and if you want to know it was after i became involved with a group of rabid fans that made me open my eyes. But I always felt and always said that people have a right to a differing opinion. That's all. And I was ripped a new one for offering something other than pure love for her. I felt sorry for Jon and I still think he got a raw deal. Not because he is innocent and did nothing wrong. But he wasn't nearly as bad as Kate has made him out to be. None of this matters because you don't care what i think anyway. Now I have met the women on the other side of things that were reamed out by the Kate fans. And you know what, they are regular, ordinary, average mothers and wives just like you. The whole difference is who likes Kate and who doesn't and it has been turned very personal. What happened to Moon's son was vicious. Some of these mothers have lost children, are raising their grandchildren, are being kept away from other grandchildren, some have husbands losing jobs, having to relocate, with far less pay. Everyone has hard times. So I found there are 2 sides to the story. And only online would people fight the way we all day over a single personality on TV.
So, here's a deal. I'll stay away from your site, it is after all a Kate fan site and I am not a fan. But you stay out of my life and tell your friends to stay out of it. I have been threatened at my home by one of them and several other things they have done. As I said above, I think you might even be shocked at the level they have gone to. The Police have been called. So, I'm out of here with an apology and I won't come back.
Baby Mama, I guess we are getting a taste of what it is like without moderation on!

I thought Kate was wonderful but then again what I liked was always opposite of what the judges liked. I actually voted for her and I never have done anything like that before. Her dress was beautiful. I agree with those who say it would be nice for Jon to go on there too when he gets in shape.
ReplyDeleteOh the dress... Didn't like it at all. I loved the white fringe dress the professional dancer wore that the host said broke FCC regulations. lol.
ReplyDeleteI do think Kate looked pretty though. My husband used to watch the show with me sometimes when I was a big Kate fan and he never liked her and never found her attractive. His basic opinion of her was "she's not ugly". He thought she looked great tonight too. He didn't even recognize her.
Barbara~ Let me start off by saying to you and everyone else that I am not affiliated with any other sites that totally ripped off this one in order to gain readers. Fans can get crazy, and people that don't love Kate can be one of the nicest people to comment here. I am thrilled that there are new fan sites popping up everywhere, but when they do it to start trouble..IE: trying to get two different views in one place, thats where there are problems.
ReplyDeleteThat being said you DID e-mail me making a nasty comment when my baby daughter was my Avatar calling her ugly. That was beyond trying to hurt someone. You can feel you saw the light all you want, but why feel the need to come back here attacking me personally? I did nothing to you other than call you a nasty troll, which you are.
There are other sites where you could spew your hate all you want and they will soak it up like a sponge. Why feel the need to post when you knew no one would ever see it? (except for today, cause I'm being nice) I have never personally said a word about you on ANY site, other than don't let the door kick you on the way out here. I think that's fair. You go on other sites CONSTANLY commenting about me. Why exactly? Move on, because I already have.
Schmecky~ this is the reason why I delete most of my comments. Crap like this is making my site all dirty again. I need to get my Swiffer out. Can you understand now why I normally don't do this? Hmmm I will have to see if I can keep this non-moderated thing going.
Barb, you are a stalker on many fan sites. You really need to get some help honey you have some big problems.
ReplyDeleteBaby Mama, here's my new motto:
ReplyDeleteNever discuss politics, religion or The Gosselins in mixed company.
And I just told you that the child I saw I did not recognize was your little girl. I have seen many avatars which I was scolded for assuming this persons avatar was their child when it was not and they were upset because they said they would NEVER put their childs photo on the internet. You see, there is no way to know for sure about something when there are a lot of pictures on the sidebar. So if indeed I did pick out your particular daughter and say that was her, then I have apologized. I have no idea what she looks like and happen to think it is a wicked world we live in to have those kids pictures out there. I've seen some bad things happen as a result. I posted here precisely because I knew you were the only one who would read it. There is a lot of history with CM that you are unaware of. A lot. And since you girls were friends, by their words, i posted what I wanted to say beause of things they were telling me that You had said. You see, it went out of control because some mean spirited people wanted to cause trouble. And I admit I got caught up in it just like them. But they were working us against each other. The difference with me is that I didn't make copies of every single thing I ever wrote on CM or anywhere else. Who has the time or energy or space to do something like that. But some do, hoping they can use that info to hurt you at some point if they feel they have been bashed. The way it goes. Well, I have information as well, some that would hurt people, but I will never use it unless I am pushed in a corner by them.
ReplyDeletei did not mean anything about your daughter. I do not believe I have ever seen what she looks like. Children, of any age, should be out of all this mess. It's not their problem.
I thought Kate did good for her first time on the show. I hope she takes the criticism and just uses it to improve herself! I voted for her many times and had my family use their emails to vote too! :)
ReplyDeleteI thought it was really cute after they announced all of the contestants and they were panning across all of them, I saw that Kate mouthed "Hi Kids". Maybe I'm imagining things, but I thought it was cute! :)
I'm looking forward to next week!
Baby Mama, I love your site. I get all of my updated Gosselin news from it! Thanks for that!
As for the haters, this is a fan site and if you don't like what we say, don't come on. I don't go on GWoP anymore because I don't like what they say!
Schmecky I 100% beleive in your new motto. I plan on using it on my site from now on! See it's always a catch 22. You want other thoughts and opinons to make your site more interesting, but in the end, it always brings you down. I happen to like my happy site, and plan to keep those that bring bad energy to a little place called the trash can.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness Kate gets another week to step it up. I know she doesnt want to look like Pam, but I hated her dress too. I wish she wore something that didnt look like a dowdy mother-of-the-bride dress. I loved her hair though, and I'm glad that shes has such a great partner in Tony.
GET OVER THOSE NERVES & PULL IT TOGETHER WOMAN!
Us Magazine still does that before and after. But the photo they show is right after she had six kids! Are you kidding me! It is funny to see the transformation..
I thought she was really good at dancing with the stars... especially for the first night. Nicole shouldn't be there in the first place... she dances for a living.
ReplyDeleteFWIW - I thought Kate did better than Shannon Doherty. Not sure why they got higher scores then Tony and Kate. Maybe it was the dress? Kate's dress didn't do her any favors (IMO) - it not only was too bridesmaid-y - but it covered her up SO much you couldn't appreciate some of the leg lift steps she did.
ReplyDeleteI thought Kate was very nervous, But hey she did do it & that is HUGE ! It takes courage to get out there. If she loosens up she will stay in.
ReplyDelete"Just wondering" poster you sound like a wacko? Why are you so invested in what this family does? I dont get it?
I think she is showing that a Mom can get out & do it. I HATE how DWTS has people that can ALREADY dance on ! It is not fair....
But I guess they need it to look a certain way. I think ALL contestants should be totally inexperienced, it'd be fair that way.
But, I will watch since Kates on. Honestly, if she wasnt on I wouldnt bother w/ the show at all.
I wouldn't count Kate out yet. Check out Dial Idol. They predict the vote totals on American Idol based on busy signal data and are usually pretty accurate for that show.
ReplyDeletehttp://stars.dialidol.com/asp/predictions/predictions.asp
I expect that Kate will go in the middle of the pack given her ability versus some of the others. I would think Nicole, Evan, and Pamela will be the final three. However, if Kate is generating that much fan support, I expect producers of other shows will take notice.
Ok I cast my vote.....GO KATE
ReplyDeleteJust don't understand the haters and the investment of time in something so negative. I don't go to any of the other sites now. Way back when my email addy was different and several of the trolls got it, they were able to locate personal info and it got ugly and scary. I still get comments about me forwarded. And, that's just crazy. (I figured out that I couldn't have the Facebook account and email linked, dropped the facebook acct and changed the email for this blog.) I do know that the FBI site will allow you to contact them if haters get out if line.
ReplyDeleteThat said, I cannot imagine EVER making any negative comment about the appearance of a child...any child! Sorry, but I think that is just sick. Yes, I'll make comments about a child's behavior (tantrums, for example) but even then that's rare. And again, never about looks.
Yes, sometimes I wish the comments posted faster, but I'd much rather wait than have venom spewing out here. I do suggest that people are more comfortable with somewhat similar minds and that GWOP is probably a more appropriate venue for investing in hate. I used to try to ho there and be pro Kate but realized that it was a waste of time and energy. If I don't like a program, I just change the channel.
HLN had interesting comments from Kate this morning. To the negative people, she said, "I do have eight kids to raise and support. I have to work. Yes, I could go back and work as a nurse, but I would not have as much time with my kids."
ReplyDeleteWhile Kate certainly was not the best, I think she did remarkably well, particularly for a newbie dancer. I think she'll become more relaxed. But even if she did not, and got booted right away.,,I'd still say what a marvelous experience it was! She has courage.
You know, I thought she did a good job of smiling with cameras right in her face during the comments. Hmmm, I think both Buzz and Shannon Doherty showed more negative reactions to the comments than did Kate.
I'm glad she chose the waltz first. I can't wait to see what comes next. And finally something to watch again on Monday night.
Hey Baby Mama, I've been a fan of your site since before the name change. I've just never been one to post of boards.To be trueful, I also did not know how, I think with the help of my 11yo (sad I know) I think I've got it figured out. I have written several wonderful posts but keep losing them for some reason. I must say all the crap that is being said and done to Kate and her fans annoys the heck out of me. So much, so I've decided that the more people who speak out opposing this kind of hate campaign against any women, especially a mother the better. It's gone way past what is a normal critic of a t.v. personality, some of these folks are sick and need help. On a happy note I just wanted to let you know what a great job you are doing on your site. I love getting my Gosselin fix here and enjoy the positive posters. I watched DWTS last night for the first time, to cheer for Kate.Hopefully she'll stay for awhile longer especially if she's paid per episode. Wow, is she ever getting into shape, she's looking great. Hope she is having fun, I know I am watching all this unfold and reading about it here. Thanks again, for all you hard work. Power to the mommys..go Kate!
ReplyDeleteO.k. so it say's my comment was published. I've crossed my finger's that it was, it's unfortunate it was not one of the ones from last night. I think they were a little more interesting and I tried to appear witty (although I was hopped up on licorice babies and DP, so no gaurantee that would have been acomplished anyway, just glad to have finally joined the club. See you soon
ReplyDeletemomsby~ Hello! I'm so sorry I didnt say hi before, I was busy putting up the next post. We always love and appreciate new readers. I know exactly how you feel about blogging for the first time. It's a bit overwhelming. We have thousands of views (hits) to the site daily, but many people do not know how or don't want to make the effort to post. They tell me they do read all of the posts though!
ReplyDeleteEither way, I always appreciate those that make the effort to start up to say hi and let you know how they feel..
Thanks again & welcome!
