Source: Kate Gosselin Has Blown Through Millions

By Rob Shuter Posted Nov 17th 2010 04:20PM

Kate Gosselin made a small fortune from her reality show and 'Dancing With The Stars,' but insiders tell me most of that money is now gone, leaving Kate worried about her financial future.

"Kate lives like she is a movie star," a friend tells me. "She flies first class and stays at the most expensive hotels and spends money on herself like it's going out of fashion. Remember, this is a woman who once spent $7,000 on a haircut!"

And while Kate keeps living the lifestyle she's become accustomed to, all the lucrative deals she's been trying to put together to earn the cash she needs to keep her in the lap of luxury have all fallen through.

"Kate was hoping to get paid to endorse a bunch of products," a friend tells me. "She thought she would earn millions by advertising baby carriages, food and cloths, but no one wanted her. The poor thing even thought she would get a deal with Cover Girl after being on 'Dancing With The Stars,' instead they went with Beyonce."

And with eight mouths to feed -- not to mention the new expense of having a home tutor for two of the kids -- the bills keep piling up. "Kate is so worried about her finances that she's even thinking about getting a real job," an insider tells me. Imagine that!

One thing all these haters seem to forget, Kate is still a very hot babe and I'm sure the proper manager could get her plenty of just show up money. Even movies, because god knows you don't have to have talent to be a movie star today.

Yup, she's hot all right. A hot mess!

Only a dozen showed up at her last book signing. But you keep on sending her your money. I know how grateful Kate is for all that's been given to her. (that was sarcasm, in case you don't know.)

Feel sorry for the kids Her and Her busband are losers. I hope the kids got a trust fund put away for them. The more I talk about her the sickier I get.

She should go live with the impoverished Octomom and her brood. With the population of both families they can declare themselves a small country and get foreign aid from the U.S.

Wendy! You are brilliant!

I second that....Wendy, you are brilliant....

Oh, and aside from Kate and her 8 moving in with Octomom.....

Maybe should get a bigger place and move in with that family who has 19 kids ("and counting").....

I have never watched any of their shows....what is so interesting about following a large family around? I mean really.

Oh boy she will start with the fake crying again. First the swallow and then the one tear will role down here face. And the dabbing of the tear with a kleenex, they should all be ashamed of themselves. My heart goes out to those small innocent children that did not ask to be bred like puppies. We in the USA should be ashammed for watching and allowing this crap, this would not have ever be allowed if viewer had not tunned in weekly.

If she's still hot, then I'm the sexiest woman alive.

The most amazing part of this: That anyone believes any of the incredible BS that this guy writes?

By john

hot by what standard?????? Certainly not hollywood hot. stop giving her false hope and let her go raise her kids.

By Phyllis

Who wants to watch her taking luxurious vacations with her children. There are so many people out there with kids that are losing their jobs and their homes and then there she is living it up without a care in the world it seems. I just feel for those kids.

By Lisa

Here! Here! I second that! This show is not about her showing how she survives with 8 kids. It should be on the travel channel because the witch isn't even home, she's always taking a trip! Why would you want to see a woman with 8 kids going here and there and a family of 4 can't even leave the front yard.

By Anne

Oh yes, Kate kept telling everyone the money was for her kids. That was a joke from the beginning, she was using it for herself.
buying expensive bags, shoes, haircut etc. She should get a real
job and spend time a home taking care of her children and giving them some love (if she knows how to do that). Know wonder her kids got kicked out of school for bulling thats what they saw at their house- thats what she did to Jon so they think that is normal.

Once that 15 minutes of fame is up, the visions of dancing Benjamins goes right down the toilet. Kate, remember this name M.C. Hammer. He had the world in his hand, then poof he was in Bankruptcy Court. Now he is pitching Jesus on late night TV.
I will not get snarky about what she can do for a job but I have friends that are skilled in their field and have been out of work for over 2 years. Is Jon kicking in any cash for the kids?

By Tawnee

WHO CARES???

By Jeremiah Hunter

Jon & Kate ARE NOT STARS. She should have NEVER been on DWS. When John said that they needed to stop the show to get their life back in order, but she continued to pursue stardom, I knew they were ruined. Both Jon & Kate had their 15 minutes of fame, now back to the REAL WORLD. Get a job, just like you used to have, and get back to your pathetic life, just like everyone else...

By Amy

OH SO SICK OF HER !! get a job !

By mborouss

Maybe Kate and Octo mom can start a puppy mill business together; they are alreaady experts at breeding.

Just another Loser

By Jeff Thomas

Seems like it was all about the money. She and her husband should had put their entire family first and nothing else. She and him should had kept their marriage together at what ever cost or means for their children and themselves. Now she is a mess and Im sure the children are in a position that they are not enjoying because of the stress their mother has now. Jeff Thomas Longview, Texas
