Real Housewives Spawns Fashion Line

We'd pay to watch a Housewives series starring him

(NEWSER) - Whether you love the Real Housewives and Stephen Colbert…or hate the Real Housewives and love Stephen Colbert, you should appreciate this clip.

Kate Gosselin isn't even the worst

(NEWSER) - Kate Gosselin is the latest in a long line of “celebrities” throwing temper tantrums on national television. E! rounds up eight more reality show meltdowns—watch the videos in the gallery:

• Kenley Collins, Project Runway: She flips out when judges say her final creation looks like a “pink snake” or “tight sausage,” and refuses to remove the belt.
• Tyra Banks, America’s Next Top Model: The host loses it on a contestant who wasn’t taking the show seriously.
• Teresa Guidice, The Real Housewives of New Jersey: In a moment of true Jersey class, Guidice flips over a restaurant table.

She got pregnant and got engaged all for her own show.” Sigh. More»

Gosselin defends himself against odd pairing of singer, Bethenny Frankel

(NEWSER) - His reality show may be washed up, but you just can't keep Jon Gosselin off TV. The octodad subjected himself to yet more pounding on the Insider last night, this time by—of all people—Donny Osmond and Real Housewife of New York Bethenny Frankel. Frankel doled out the tough questions (“Why do you guys go through this in public? It’s just bizarre to play out every single emotion and conversation in public.”) while Osmond offered up sage relationship advice (It’s “about what’s best for your spouse.”). More»
