Jon, Octomom to Get $1M for Reality Dating Show

Denials were just negotiating tactics, insider says

Share

(Newser) – Jon Gosselin and “Octomom” Nadya Suleman were just being coy when they denied they’ve signed on to a one-off reality show: Both are interested and stand to make upward of $1M for the program. Jon - Kate = Jon + Octomom is being shopped as a 2-hour special to air on Super Bowl Sunday. Cameras will reportedly follow them on a date.

"Jon's camp got scared because they didn't expect the story to come out so quickly," an insider tells the New York Daily News, explaining the earlier denials. "They figured they would issue a denial now while they still work out negotiations for the show." Given the money involved, he adds that both would be "foolish" to turn it down.

I can think of no others who deserve children less than the three people involved in it all and the two planning on this show.........they need to be neutered and set free in the wild so as not to bother or be bothered by others

I can't quite remember but between the two of them, i think its around 22 kids. Nadya has 13 and Jon has 8. And all of whom are going no where in life.

No Iggy Jack. Those kids will be going to therapists for most of their lives when they realize they were conceived only for money making purposes.
