Kate Gosselin Tell-All Book Pulled By Amazon; Author Reported Kate To CPS

by Melissa on October 1st, 2012

Robert Hoffman's book Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled the World has been pulled by Amazon. The tell-all book was available for purchase for only two days before two legal teams, Lavely & Singer and Williams & Connolly, each demanded that Amazon pull the book due to infringement rights.

After the Kate Gosselin child abuse allegations took the internet by storm last week, Robert came under fire as well. Many readers question how the reporter just happened to "find" Kate's personal journals and why he wrote a book instead of contacting Child Protection Services.

Robert says he found Kate's computer hard drives in the trash. The former US Weekly reporter says, "I can tell you that all of my information regarding Kate Gosselin used in the book was obtained by me personally through completely legal means."

Furthermore, Robert claims that only about 10% of the information in the book was taken from Kate's hard drive. "There is so much more that hasn't been revealed," Robert says. "I also have photographic evidence to back up my claims in the book."

PHOTOS: Meet The 26 Bachelorettes Of Sean Lowe’s The Bachelor Season 17!

by Melissa on September 28th, 2012

Aww, there he is.. our new Bachelor holding a rose. ABC officially announced Sean Lowe as the star of The Bachelor Season 17 earlier this week! You know, right after Chris Harrison spilled the beans at the Emmy Awards. We met Sean on the Bachelorette, of course, but that season was all about Emily Maynard.

Now, Sean is the star and in charge of the roses. Sean, 28, is an entrepreneur from Dallas, Texas. Southern values, family, and faith are very important to Sean. In his free time, Sean enjoys camping, wakeboarding, dancing, outdoor activities, and attending concerts.

The ABC press release tells us what Sean is looking for as the Bachelor: "He wants to be the patriarch of a family that is centered on faith, love and, laughter. He is eager to be a supportive husband that will encourage his wife to chase her dreams, as well as someone who she can rely on to help her through good and bad times. Quite simply, he is looking for his best friend. Sean also wants a big family and would love to adopt a child along with having his own – just so long as he can pass along the values he was taught to his kids."

Taping is already underway for Sean's season, which will begin airing in January 2013. And, ABC must be eager to get this party started, because they have already released the pictures and first names of the 24 "new to us" women that will be competing for Sean's final rose (and that sweet Neil Lane rock). Undoubtedly, Sean's final rose will bring us the most romantic rose ceremony ever. Like, ever.. ever. I digress.. anyway, this information has been released at least three months earlier than normal. Their ages, hometowns, and occupations were not listed, however. In addition to the new faces, there are two familiar faces! Enjoy!

Also, check out the Sean Lowe is The Next Bachelor video at the end. It's hilarious!

Did Emily Maynard Agree To Pay Jef Holm To Fake Their Engagement?

by Melissa on September 26th, 2012

Uh oh! Jef Holm's ex-girlfriend (of Burger King fame) is trying to blow up the picture-perfect romance Emily Maynard is ~~shoving down our throats~~ displaying on Twitter.

Jef's ex Kaylee Shepherd claims Jef told her he is only with Emily to keep up appearances. Kaylee says Jef told her he "was in love, but things have changed."

Kaylee alleges that she and Jef have met twice since September 16, once at a hotel and once at Burger King. "Jef said their relationship isn't what it seemed, it's basically for TV," says Kaylee. "He said, 'If I was happily engaged, I would never have texted you.'"

According to Kaylee: Jef admitted to her that the sexting scandal really happened. As a result and despite Emily's apologies and pleas to reconnect, Jef was over the romance. Jef gave Emily two options: go to the media with the dirty cheating truth or pay him half of her Bachelorette salary to pretend it never happened. Desperately clinging to her wholesome image, Emily chose to pay Jef.

Reporter Claims Kate Gosselin Violently Hits Her Kids With A Wooden Spoon

by Melissa on September 26th, 2012

Shocking new child abuse claims surrounding Kate Gosselin surfaced today. Reporter Robert Hoffman alleges the Gosselin kids have suffered extreme forms of discipline at the hands of their mother. And, he says, he has written proof.

Hoffman was an employee of the Reading Eagle, which is the local paper in Gosselin Land, until 2007. Hoffman later went on to write for US Weekly.

At some point, Hoffman and Jon Gosselin became friends, which allowed him access to their home. Now, Hoffman claims he found one of Kate's journals. With all this information in hand, Hoffman has written a tell-all book about Kate titled Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled the World, which Kate's lawyers are attempting to block from being published.

“I don’t judge somebody for spanking, but what Kate wrote in her journal is just absolute violence,” Hoffman says. "She was beating 2-year-old babies in diapers."

MTV Announces ‘Amber Portwood Behind Bars’ Special

by Melissa on September 25th, 2012

We all said our goodbyes to the original Teen Mom cast a few weeks ago.

Together, we celebrated the girls, Amber Portwood's eyelashes, the babies, Farrah Abraham's never-ending supply of puppies, the good times, Catelynn Lowell's fashion evolution, the bad times, and Bentley pissing on Maci Bookout.

Personally, I thought the series finale and Dr. Drew's reunion special (part one and part two) were send off enough. However, despite the inevitable spin offs to come, somebody (starts with a 'm' and rhymes with 'teevee') isn't ready to cut the cord.

MTV has announced three new Teen Mom specials. Perhaps the most unexpected one, though, is a half-hour interview with Amber titled Amber Behind Bars: An MTV Special set to air on October 9!

MTV's press release:

In this exclusive half-hour interview, Dr. Drew sits down with Amber Portwood inside the Rockville Correctional Facility for an intimate discussion about what life has been like behind bars, the status of her relationship with her daughter Leah, ex-boyfriend Gary, and her family, and her hopes for the future. As Amber reflects on her situation, she gives viewers an open, honest look inside the intense ups and downs she’s faced during this journey.

This exclusive interview marks the first time Amber has personally shared her story since she entered the Rockville Correctional Facility in June 2012.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy Is Leaving Dancing With The Stars To Pursue Acting

by Melissa on September 21st, 2012

Sexy Dancing with the Stars pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy is ready to move on to the next phase of his life.

Maks announced today that he will not return to Dancing with the Stars after his contract expires at the end of next year. So, that means he's still obligated to bring the eye candy to All Stars, plus 2 more seasons (spring and fall).

“What else do I have to do there after 15 seasons?” Maks said. “It makes total sense. The audience can’t expect for me to want to stick around, and the producers can’t expect for me to want to stick around.”

While there is no love lost between Maks and the DWTS's judges, Maks tweeted he has "nothing but love, gratitude, and respect" for everyone who has been a part of his Dancing with the Stars career. Maks referred to the time as an "amazing aspect" of his life.
