Kate's Sell-Out Brother Goes To The Bank
Filed under: The Gosselins
What a douche!
Unlike some players in the Jon & Kate inner circle, Kate GosselinKevin Kreider, and sister-in-law Jodie want the media to pony up for their insider secrets. Yesterday, the Aunt and Uncle of the eight Gosselin spawn were on the Early Show, where they scolded Jon and Kate for continuing the show and for putting money over the well being of their kids.
For that 15 minutes of fame, it is speculated that they were paid $30,000 and they are looking for other media outlets who would do the same.
Wow. We smell a hypocrite or two.
They should really be ashamed of themselves. This is their family they are exploiting. Family doesn't do that to one another, no matter what the price tag.

How are they being hypocrites? They aren't pimping out any kids and I am happy they are getting something since bitch Kate wouldn't give them a dime to babysit let alone take part in their show!!!
Takes one to know one aye Mario…..Hypocrite.
Wow, the things people will do for money. I couldn't imagine selling out a family member like that.
If they were so concerned with the well being of their nieces and nephews as they claimed they wouldn't stir up more drama by going on every network for money, they'd let the entire thing die down. They're talking about how their lives should be private for the kids sake.. do you call going on national television private? Hypocrites is right.
I support their exploitation, someone has to stand up for the kids. Maybe they'll put the money towards helping those children.
I have read Jodie's blog several months back, and because of what she has shared, i stopped watching the show. There is nothing that they have said that is not true.
Then again i believe in STFU.
They are just pissed off because Kate cut them out of the show and the money. Why do you only hear from them in the 5th season. If they were so concerned you would have thought they would have spoken out sooner.
Money talks and they should be ashamed of themselves. The kids obviously loved them when they were on the show and now they are bitter because Kate didn't want to pay them. Why should she? Those kids aren't Jodi's! I couldn't imagine throwing my family under the bus like that EVER! If the shit they were telling was true and the reason they did it was to stand up for their nieces and nephews then they should have done it FOR FREE. IF that was really their concern, they shouldn't have taken a damn dime! Aunt Jodi's a sour bitch and so is her sister that wrote all those nasty blogs about kate!
When it comes to money, ppl will sell out their own mother for a dollar. That's a shame but it's Kate and Jon own fault. They should never did the show if they know this shit was going to happen.
I believe them. Telling the truth a couple a times is NOT being a hypocrite!
KATE is the WITCH, Perez. I am a follower of these guys, and JON looks bad, but KATE is the real DEVIL>
An example of how crazy the ginger is:
One episode (a while back) Jodi was babysitting the kids and gave them (the 3 year old sextuplets) gum. Kate got mad, as I imagine most parents would, and called her and said no more gum. Jodie got so mad that she went on her blog and was trash talking kate saying she was exploiting the kids and all this stupid stuff.
This was long before the cheating scandal. The Gosselins may not be doing what they should be, but really would you sell out your own sister?
"They should really be ashamed of themselves. This is their family they are exploiting. Family doesn't do that to one another, no matter what the price tag"
I agree. If this was about the children, They'd get lawyers and help 'un-exploitate' them.
AMEN, PEREZ!! They are also LIARS. They swore they would not watch the show on Radar Online interview trying to get fans not to tune in before the show. On the Early Show they made reference to what they saw on the show. Such phony liars. They said Kate had no clue her marriage was in shambles and Kate clearly was aware and admitted possible divorce on the show so they switched their theme to "save the children, make new laws" for the Early Show. They had THEIR OWN CHILDREN ON THE SHOW MANY TIMES.SUCH LIARS those 2. Jodi repeatedly undermined Kate's desire to feed her children organic and healthy food choices by always giving them loads of junk food when she kept them for Kate. IF they cared about the children, they would not be bashing their parents on TV and Radar Online. JODI AND BROTHER WANT MONEY $$$$$ AND WANT TO DESTROY HIS SISTER'S SHOW.
Re: Larizza – THEY DO NOT TELL THE TRUTH. WHAT THEY SAID ON RADAR ONLINE AND ON THE EARLY SHOW ARE NOT THE SAME. IF THEY LOVED KATE'S CHILDREN THEY WOULD NOT BASH KATE ON TV AND BLOGS. IF THEY REALLY THINK THE SHOW HARMS THE CHILDREN THEN THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR OWN CHILDREN WHO WERE ON THE SHOW MANY TIMES.!!! THEY ARE LYING HYPOCRITES!!!!
All this attention-just helps the rich get richer. Let's find a NEW family to scrutinize. Bet we could find one on the Maury Show! Maybe one with 8 kids and 8 different daddies- that way the tabs wouldn't have to pay so much for an interview. Now THAT would be worth my time to watch!!
The entire family needs to walk away from all cameras.
Fame, money & jealousy have turned them into obnoxious vultures.
So sick of them
this is exactly what i was pointing out to people yesterday…. they slam kate and jon for being famewhores and only wanting $$, but yet they run to every media outlet possible to reveal *secrets*…… at least jon and kate have the excuse that they have 8 kids to pay for!
and on top of that… trying to say the "reality" of the show… i am a big fan of the show, but never once did i think all the trips / episodes were completely real or paid for by the gosselins, its reality tv people! that means its not real!
These people are NOT family. Once you sign on to a show, you are an ACTOR. Your "life" is no longer yours. Kids, too. Everyone is exploited on so-called reality television, why do you think it's so popular? It lets networks avoid child labor laws, professional writers, professional actors, etc. Blood ties or whatever, no holds are ever barred when it comes to the trash TV circuit, and you know what? They shouldn't be. People despicable enough to sell their life and persona to TV deserve it. The only victims here are the kids, and they're victims with a lot more toys than most kids get growing up, I'll bet. Jeez. Stop whining about scummy reality stars being victimized. Oh wait, you can't, you media peeps are PAID TO TALK ABOUT THEM! :/
I'm sorry, I don't think the Gosselin's are entirely in the wrong, here. If I had the opportunity to do fun and costly activities with my children, I'd jump on it. How many families of 10 do you know that can take their children on Disney trips, Hawaii trips, NYC trips, piano lessons,etc? I only have three, and I can't do any of that. They're just taking advantage of their situation. Maybe it has gone on far enough, but I'm sure Kate's brother would be doing the same thing if it were his family.
Perez, I'm glad that you finally recognize these creeps for what they really are. Your last posts praising and recognizing them have been really discouraging, but i'm glad that you see that these twats are just trying to make a buck by creating a media uproar about their relatives. Real family members would protect the family, not gossip about it.
I think the whole family should keep their opions to themselves they seem to be the ones fueling the media fire! If they would butt out the attention would die down. Shame on them for doing what they are putting them down for! Jon is a whine ass who put himself in this situation he needs to either pony up or get the hell off the horse! TEAM KATE!!!!!!!
FAME SUCKS ASS! MONEY GIVES YOU FREEDOM BUT FAME TAKES IT AWAY!
What is hypocritical about it? They aren't pimping out the kids…..that's what their shrew mother is doing…
kinda like how you make a living exploiting the personal lives of anyone and everyone in entertainment?
totally agree with you Perez. Never turn your back on family!
told you those people were FAKE gah that Jodi bitch drives me NUTS
They are scum bags, period end of story.
These two are just as bad as jon and kate. It's sad when you cant even trust your family.
The reason they are so upset with Kate is that she would not allow them to be paid off of the "kids". They want money and are mad that they were not allowed to be paid! Any way it is a tv show, the kids are enjoying it, it is not hurting them, so whats the big deal. Jon and Kate are having some marriage problems who doesnt these days!!
I do not believe that kate is selling out her family-she all along has been trying to acquire enough money to be financially secure-I have 2 children and am constantly out of money. 8 children-OMG-and her idiot husband got fired from his job either during her pregnancy or right after it for trying to get freebies all day instead of doing his job. She had been getting money for college, money for the house and YES, taking the free stuff offered. and there is nothing free in life-they must pay taxes on everything. BUT-I could barely afford disney for my kids-I can't imagine the cost for 10 people +having an extra one or two extra hands around. As for cutting people from the show-I could see having friends on the first couple of seasons ’cause the babies aren't talking yet and it can get really boring, but after they state talking and walking and can go places, why do you need the extra adults? the show is supposed to be about the gosselins, not about their friends. and TLC had issued a statement that the aunt and uncle would not have been taking any money out of the gosselin's cut, just a stupid rumor. If they were to get ANYTHING, probably the minimum that is standard for appearing on a show. Jody and Kevin are a bunch of nasty *****-they are the ones that are making the rags center on the family-they should be ashamed
i thought they were the babysitter on the show???? im sure they are compensated like free trips and a salary. wish i had this family! kind of explains why we never hear about kate's parents
I watched the interview with Jodi and Kevin and the entire time I wondered how much $$$$ they were making from their pitiful performance…which is exactly what it was A PERFORMANCE. Jodi kept cutting Kevin off and it's clear that Jodi and her sister (with her hateful blog www.truthbreedshatred.com) have a vendetta against kate.
Every family has their problems, mine included, but it does not give Jodi and Kevin the right to go on national television to preach about their personal opinions regarding the matter. Jon and Kate have to BOTH given consent for the kids (and themselves) to be videotaped. If Jon was truly against being on tv then he wouldn't be on tv (i.e. Amy, daughter of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne, who did not want to be part of their show a few years ago and was not taped).
What is for sure is that Jon and Kate made the decision to make an income doing this show. Who wouldn't want to live in a multi-million dollar home and not have to worry about money? I think the haters are just jealous…but don't be! You didn't have to carry 6 babies for 9 months and raise them. Can't wait to see all the foolish young girls on the site who make mean comments have children and figure out that it's not that easy to raise a family!
Re: jickity – An example of how crazy the ginger is:

THAT'S NOT THE ENTIRE STORY!!
Kate was livid because one of the tups had gotten gum on their stuffed animal, and threatened to thow it out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was a mean, ruthless, scene. Then she got on the phone and chewed out Jodi.
This woman is sick. I wish everyone would stop sticking up for her.
SHE IS THE DEVIL.
This was long before the cheating scandal. The Gosselins may not be doing what they should be, but really would you sell out your own sister?
Why not do it for money? If the rumors are true, Kate didn't want Jodi and Kevin in the show anymore because TLC wanted to pay them, and that meant less $$ for Kate. I don't blame them for speaking out because they've probably been treated like crap too by the Gosselins. If family is so important why wouldn't they have listened to Jodi and Kevin in the first place? Oh yeah that's right, this "fame" has gone to their heads and don't care about them.
A. Jody doesn't have a blog, it's her sister Julie's.
B. "Speculation" doesn't constitute as proof. Gee, I wonder who's doing the speculating…Jon & Kate's PR folks maybe?
These two should be ashamed of themselves for ratting out family for money, and so should the media outlets who hire them. I'll bet my last dime that if they weren't getting fat cash for this, they wouldn't have anything to say.
Re: NeatoSpeedo – why blindly support someone who is in the wrong, even if it is your family?? clearly, kate knows nothing about family values, or should wouldn't be in the middle of a divorce and pimping out her kids for $$$. I also come from a large family, there was 6 kids…and my mother would never ever dream of putting cameras in our rooms. Shame on her.
Re: GossipGirl – he said SPECULATED.. dont be ignorant and believe everything you read.
Thank You Perez! I've been calling them hyocrites for awhile now. Not only are they doing it for fame and fourtune they also had their children on the show!
Re: Mags84 –
I agree with you it's not right to publicly video tape you're kids. But the family members are only adding to the fire. This whole thing is a mess, the whole family sounds greedy.
If they were really doing this for the kids sake, they would not accept any money to show how serious they are. Seems to me, they're upset they couldn't make any money of the kids though the show, so they're going to do it their own way now. Sad.
THERE IS NO PROOF THEY TOOK ANY MONEY. PERIOD.
ah, the jon & kate pr machine is in overdrive this week. don't be so naive folks. you're reading it on a GOSSIP site.
woooooow. if they're seriously up for getting paid to dish out the family secrets, theyre probably making stuff up too. the more outrageous the lies/family secrets are, the more they get paid. niiiiiice
What horrible family members!
some of you would make very scary jurors.
Kate cut ties with Jodi a long time ago so she does not need to be ashamed in herself at all. Whats the point in talking to the media for free. In this economy if someone is willing to pay you for the info then more power to you. Perez i use to enjoy your blog but it is starting to suck
What did i say earlier?? Kate's sibs are all in it for the money i soo called this one!
Okay, so you sell out your sibling for the sake of their kids… but you sell yourself out in the process!!! SHAME!!!
unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!These family members are just jealous!!!!!!!!!!and haters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
aunt jodie and kates brother are pathetic who sells there family out like that just for money! and there calling kate out for exploiting their family. hopefully karma gets those two!
WHAT EVER. ALRIGHT ALREADY.
Re: Tinalouise – Of course they are! By them going to the media they're giving the family MORE press. They're doing exactly what they're bashing Jon and Kate for. It sucks to know they can't even count on family…
If they were trying to help the kids, they wouldn't be pulling shit like that. They're in it for the money just as much as they claim Jon and Kate are.
yeah…. i mean so much for family……
i've decided that jodi and kevin are absolute ASSHOLES and just want the world to know how "horrible" jon and kate are. OR they are just in it for the money and will say anything to get more. whatever the reason, they ARE being hypocrites because they are going on tv saying things that are worse than what jon and kate are doing. jodi and kevin are making this situation WORSE for jon and kate. i wish someone would get it through their head they are straight up HYPOCRITES. how can you say that about your own family? wow.
one more thing…Kate is not a bitch. i'd love to see any normal early 30 year-old to raise 8 kids with a cheating, uncommitted husband. now which one of you would be humble and happy?
Re: Larizza – I agree! I'm glad they are finally speaking out! If this was all untrue — where is the lawsuit?? I think Kevin and Jodi should get custody and the Konpound and Jon could live with them.
Re: dre_234 – He didn't cheat, she did!
Re: Raebie – I AGREE!! And, IF they got any money they are probably using it for legal fees to help get the kids FREE from TLC and Kate's exploitation.
Well it's about time Perez!
This kevin and Jodi are scum!
They are the one's doing all the exploiting!
I don't see Jon and Kate running to the media telling all the secrets of Kevin and Jodi's….. as FAMILY don't do that to each other! They should be ashamed and I hope they choke on their money!
They have zero credibility if they're getting paid. Zero.
Mind you, I don't necessarily buy the Jon/Kate show story lines, either. Pffft.
money really does make people go nuts
That's just so low!! it's disgusting… as a matter of fact they all are disgusting.. Kate and Jon included.. in a few years when those kids start going on the internet or head off to High school all of this stuff will be there for them to see and how do you think they will feel? all this money they are trying to get will only go towards therapy for those kids…. Kate made a royal mess of her marriage with her nasty attitude and t hey way she belittled Jon… then Jon made another mess by running around with a chick and on top of that Kate's Brother is nothing short of a Dog… Kate's side of the family seem to be very bitter people… Maybe that is why Kate is the way she is…
Well hell, since they're reportedly getting paid 30k, let me just say, I'm a third in law twice removed living in po-dunk Ala, and I'm willing to pimp out my words for some bucks. I saw Kate dry humping the boom thingie the other day, while the camera crew watched. ( The kids were already alseep), while Jon hid in the closet. (That's where he's allowed to stay, not in an apt above garage, as prev. reported) Also, Jon yelled bitch to the german sheppards they, got, and Kate came running in. Kate's also in talks with Alec Baldwin, about incubating him some more kids. Jon's supposedly upset because he knows he'll be left alone with all 18 kids, while K and A doing their book rounds!!!!
wow..what a bunch of hypocrites. are they not exploiting themselves for a quick dollar???? its funny though, you would think
that it would be Jon and Kate's parents that would have came out swinging if it would have been anyone considering they dont get along with them at all. instead its her douche bag brother and his wife. that is really how you know this is all about money. why should it be that they get paid anyway. lemme get this straight. Kevin and Jodi wanted to get paid everytime they stepped in front of the cameras to see their own neices and nephews. what a bunch of low lifes. sooo that means they would have been willing to exploit them as long as they got paid. and then they talk about Jon and Kate. i agree with Perez. i hope 30,000 was worth selling out your sister your fucktard. and to your wife i hope Kate whips her ass. you both deserve what you get.
Definitely pot calling the kettle black.. on TWO FRONTS!
1: Perez.. you got it.. i dont even care about them criticizing their family.. THOSE POOR KIDS ARE GONNA WATCH THAT ON TV SOME DAY… THEIR FRIENDS AT SCHOOL MAY BE REPEATING THIS TO THEM!! WTF!!
2: Mario.. you have gotta step it up and just not give them the spotlight.. you're simply coddling the testes of the same system you're criticizing! You can totally use your popularity to chastise celebrities who are support charities or something actual merit instead of their personal lives.
That's fucking ridiculous. If they really cared about the children and want to bash Jon and Kate because they still have their show, they wouldn't be getting paid for betraying family. Paying them for that bullshit is disgusting.
Oh hell yeah they're money grubbing, just like Kate.
Jodi has sour grapes from Kate putting the kabosh on her contract with TLC.
Don't believe Jodi & Kevin for a minute.
::This is their family they are exploiting. Family doesn't do that to one another, no matter what the price tag.::
Try telling this to Jon and Kate.
::Kevin and Jodie want the media to pony up for their insider secrets.::
I worked in TV for years. Since Jodie and Kevin were on the show with speaking parts, they were part of the cast. They had to sign contracts allowing their scenes to be shown and regardless of whether or not they are family, they were playing a role on TV and were payed if the other people on the show are also being paid since they are essentially doing the same thing (appearing on camera). People can criticize Kevin and Jodie all they want, when people appear on interviews, they are paid money. That includes Jon and Kate Why should they get finances for talking and their family members doing the same thing on television can't? Kevin and Jodie are playing by the same rules anyone else does going on an interview and making money and speaking their mind, why should it be any different for them? And if they do have an inside view as to what is going on and are concerned for those children, they have every right to speak out and inform the public.
They are BIG TIME hypocrites- if they were so concerned about the kids they wouldn't take a dime for letting their concerns be known. As for wanting $$$ to babysit- who asks for $$ to babysit for family???? mmmm jodi wanted $$ to be on the show and $$ for watching the kids…seems like the only thing jodi cares about is $$$$. pretty obvious. if these two are so worried about the kids - why speak out now…….seasons later. duh they want a payout.
HI PARASITE.
weren't you just PRAISING auntie jodie and uncle kevin for doing this?
now all of a sudden "ZOMG. DONT ZELL OUT UR FAMILYZZZ!!!!!!! NO ON H8!!!!!!!!"
sdkfjdsklfjs.
fuck you, hypocrite.
They have 8 kids it helps to take care them. What kind of brther and sister in law talks bad about their own sister u two should be ashamed ur self. I think u getting payed say all this. Leave kate and jon alone. We luv u jon and kate donte listen them they trash.
hey i love the show..LEAVE THEM ALONE..why is everyone upsets..it R.E.A.L.I,T.Y tv people…get it…if u hate it so much, go read a book! boohoo
I applaud Them for letting the Fans know the truth!!
Team JON!!
should make you think….maybe they are embellishing a little….
not that i don't think there are problems with that marriage because it is completely obvious…. but i'm not sure if i completely believe Jodie and Kate's bro.
I agree. I knew they were coming out of the wood work looking for a big fat pay check!
