Jon, Kate Face Off Over Twins' Birthday

Plus, Jon Gosselin's second smackdown with Nancy Grace; Kate on Jay Leno

(NEWSER) - Jon Gosselin, never one to keep a low profile, is all over the place this week—yesterday, he told anyone who would listen that Kate was trying to bar him from the twins’ birthday today.

Gosselin assured Stephanie Santoro “he’d had a vasectomy,” her mother tells Radar.

Jon Borrowed $88K From Galpal... to Pay Kate

Um, he should probably get a job or two

(NEWSER) - Yes, Jon Gosselin is back in the news—and, not surprisingly, it’s for a quite pathetic reason. Remember when he took all that money out of his joint bank account with ex-wife Kate?
