We try our best to stay out of the Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin (and co.) drama, because, let’s face it, there’s something extremely icky about the whole thing. (Two words: Ed Hardy.) But the recent drama has been especially interesting, as it involves the future of their claim to fame, Jon & Kate Plus 8. Earlier this week, TLC — one of our favorite television destinations — announced an all new show roughly 180 lbs lighter, called Kate Plus 8. Realizing his meal ticket may be spontaneously combusting before his bloodshot eyes, Jon is trying desperately to get the show canned, going so far as to involve his lawyers (quelle horreur!). The children, meanwhile, are clearly mentally preparing themselves for years of deep, intrusive therapy.
This particular update, however, was too good to pass up. Now TLC has made their official statement, and it seems to back up what we’ve all known all along: Jon Gosselin is King Douche. The statement reads:
We are aware of Jon Gosselin’s recent statements, and remain deeply disappointed at his continued erratic behavior. He and the family were shooting as recently as last Friday, without incident, and his latest comments are grossly inaccurate, without merit and are clearly opportunistic. Despite Jon Gosselin’s repeated self destructive and unprofessional actions, he remains under an exclusive contract with TLC. Direct filming of the children has been currently suspended, pending further conversations between both parents.
We kinda hope they let the Cake Boss loose on this ass. Cake Boss don’t play, you guys. (Because Cake Neanderthals were born without an ounce of humor in their monkey bodies.)
Also, check out this highly professional sign Jon whipped up for the TLC folks, ordering them to stop filming:
If you misspell “penalty”, does it actually count?
