Kate Gosselin is Feeling Lonely After the Breakup

Celebrity News - Kate Gosselin
According to People.com Kate Gosselin is lonely. Of course, this is a natural reaction to divorce and relationship bust-ups! However, for celebrities in the limelight, it's even harder. Nothing you do or say is private and your grief and your behaviour is recorded by the celebrity gossip and news media. Not an easy task, indeed! You would have to say, it must be even more difficult for the children of Hollywood celebrities. It's difficult enough time even for children of ordinary people. However, in the celebrity news again, the Kate and Jon Gosselin story continues. You'll get no privacy when you're famous - even wearing dark glasses won't help. There's always a price to pay for fame, stardom, wads of cash and the celebrity life.

"While Jon Gosselin has been spotted out with more than one woman since splitting from his wife, Kate Gosselin is not ready for romance.

"I am not yet divorced officially," she told Larry King on CNN's Larry King Live Tuesday when asked if she feels single.

As for attracting potential suitors, Gosselin was clear that she's "too busy" to date. "I'm lonely, but I'm very busy," she said stoically.

Addressing how the couple's children – 9-year-old twins (Mady and Cara) and 5-year-old sextuplets (Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Joel, Alexis and Leah) – are handling the split, Gosselin said: "They understand the process [of divorce]. They're working through it the same way that Jon and I are. They're doing remarkably well."

Gosselin says that like any kids whose parents have split, her children wish she and Jon could be together, but for now, "My goal is peace and we've achieved that."

Still, Gosselin acknowledged that their life isn't always peaceful. She explained an encounter that resulted in the police being called to their home in Wernersville, Pa. "It was not this huge fight," she said. "It was just a thing where I wanted to be there with the kids as opposed to a babysitter. And he wasn't fond of that idea."

Gosselin said she did not call 911, but rather made a "local, routine police call," and that there was no violence. "I have good days and bad days," she said. "This day was a rough day."


"Everyone works. Everyone has a job," Gosselin said when asked about why she signed up for a reality show about her family. "This is the most flexible, wonderful, wonderful job for myself ... The kids are just playing in front of the cameras."

So will the entire family continue the show? Kate would not speak for Jon, who, according to reports, would like to be done filming, but said she'll plans to keep shooting .

"Myself and the kids will continue the show," she said. "I signed my name to a contract and I am going to do my best to make that work as long as it is healthy and safe for myself and the kids."

Does that mean there will be another season of Jon & Kate Plus 8? "Possibly," Gosselin said. "There could be or there could not be."

Brad Pitt for Mayor

celebrity-news-brad-pitt
The idea of celebrity Brad Pitt running for New Orleans mayor has blown the city. On the street of New Orleans, people are easily spotted for wearing Brad Pitt’s T-shirt. It really does seem like a genuine election campaign. But few days ago during NBC’s interview, Brad Pitt officially declined the possibility and laughed it off saying “I don’t have a chance”.

In 2005, Brangelina began their charity work in New Orleans after the devastation left by Hurricane Katrina. They appealed for donations from various channels and helped build more than 150 new residences. The couple even went to the construction sites in person many times. In order to attract more old residents and new comers to come to the city and rebuild their hometown again, Brad and Angelina also bought a mansion there and become initiators. Because of their generosity, local people love the couple very much and even titled Brad, “the Son of New Orleans.”

During this year’s mayor election, which will occur in November, people gave 13 reasons to nominate Brad Pitt. They were printed on the Brad-Pitt-for-Mayor t-shirts. The biggest reason was the hope that New Orleans will become the next Hollywood, so more than just grilled chicken and the French Quarter won’t be the only famous things. These T-shirts are so damn popular, selling at $20 each. For every T-shirt sold, 2 dollars is donated to the “Make It Right” program to help the city in its further recovery.

Unfortunately, Brad Pitt is not eligible to run because according to local law, a candidate must live in the city for at least five years before the date of the election. But Brad has only been a citizen of New Orleans for four years.

On the other hand, Angelina Jolie has a much more ambitious career goal. She might be interested in becoming the first female president of United States, maybe 20 years into the future.

Earlier this year, Angelina revealed to Britian’s Daily Express that she is getting bored with Hollywood after winning all of the awards an actress could possibly win, playing all of the different roles that she ever wanted to play, being praised countlessly for her matchless beauty and peerless sexiness, and of course, being criticized for every misdeeds she had done in the past. Being Angelina, the tough diva figure, it is not surprising that she would want to do something as large as running for the president.

Angelina’s pal added further “She is passionate about people’s rights, war and justice and thinks she can get more hands-on and make even more of a difference by getting into politics. She admires Obama and thinks she could make a big difference too if she were in his position.”

Well, one thing for sure, Angelina is definitely legally eligible to run for American’s president by the time Brad is also eligible to become a mayor of New Orleans

Celebrity Icon Marilyn Monroe



The death of Anna Nicole Smith in 2007 brought back people's discussion over the cursed fate of Playboy's cover girls. In the past 50 years, 25 playmates were dead without a natural cause. For instance, 3 of them were murdered, 5 were killed by overdose, 4 were involved in a fatal car accident, 12 succumbed to incurable disease and 1 had a plane crash. Of course, the one that generated the most media coverage was celebrity icon Marilyn Monroe, who is still the most memorable and irreplaceable icon of all time.

Marilyn Monroe was forsaken by her biological mother ever since she was a toddler. While she was raised by her adopted family, her "father" habitually assaulted her throughout her youth. Such pain left her a big shadow that she had to drag along into her adulthood.

In 1953, Hugh Hefner spent $500 on buying Marilyn nude photo from a photographer and using on the first edition of Playboy magazine. At the time, Marilyn was not famous just yet. But after all of the 50,000 copies of Playboy got sold in an instant, Marlyn became the sex symbol in every American boy’s fantasy.

After Marilyn achieved her fame as a hot celebrity, she was, at first, overwhelmed with the attention and admiration she received from everybody. From the outside, she appeared to be a confident and strong woman, but whenever she was alone by herself, she would feel extremely insecure and panic because of this psychological impairment that still haunted her constantly. She was afraid that one day, people's affection and loyalty for her would disappear even faster than her memory of the moment her mother dumped her at the orphanage. Although Marliyn was a perfect shell in front of the cameras, under that shell, she was pierced with millions of holes.

As time went on, Marilyn was pulled even further apart between her contradicting identities. In the eyes of her fans, she was a goddess, but from her so-called friends or lovers, she couldn't see any value of herself in their eyes. People betrayed her because she was Marilyn Monroe, yet they also left her because she was not the supposed celebrity, "Marilyn Monroe". She was a human being as well as an icon and famous celebrity. Life was too harsh.

In order to cope, Marilyn started to using drugs and sleeping pills. She would depend on 20 Barbital pills each night to put her into sleep. While at work, she was stuttering uncontrollable during filming and had trouble remembering her words. She asked for help from psychiatrist and was once admitted to the hospital for acute treatment. Yet, there was still no solution to her problem. It was beyond repair. Finally, at age 36, she was found died on her bed. She left a mystery to the investigators, because her face was deeply ironed inside her pillow. It was a very odd position. Could it be an intentional suicide or an accidental overdose, or else?

Again, Marilyn Monroe was broken into two pieces when she vanished from this world. On the front stage, she still looked like the fabulous celebrity in her casket as her fans were giving their last goodbye, but on the backstage, her dissected body with all of her organs removed was secretly photographed by journalists who paid a great amount of money under table. People still refused to leave her alone...

Nowadays Marilyn Monroe continuous to be the mold for every celebrity to imitate. They try to reassemble her pose during famous photo shooting where she wore a white halter dress, standing over a grate; they go for plastic surgery to tattoo a tiny black mole in the same position above her lip as she had; they feel honored when being called "Marilyn" even though their names are not.... but how many of these people really understand the fact that this mold of Marilyn was made up with shining glass that can be easily shattered into countless pieces with only one crack?

Robert Pattinson's Love Life

Celebrity Gossip - Robert Pattinson
Young, hot and bit with the fame bug, celebrity Robert Pattinson, 23, is enjoying being single and legal in Hollywood. Although he admits he is not committed to anyone, he is for sure making use of his unlimited access to gorgeous girls and hot parties. Just what's up with Robert Pattinson's love life?

Last night at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards, he went home as “Choice Hottie”, “Choice Movie Actor, Drama”, “Choice Movie Rumble” and “Choice Movie Liplock.”

Megan Fox was on stage alongside him as the female “Choice Hottie,” and Kristin Stewart was the other half of the “Choice Liplock.” Both of these starlets are no stranger to Pattinson, or the Palihouse Hotel. Robert did drinks there with Megan earlier in the year and dined Kristin there just the day before the award show. The celebrity gossip just grows.

Although they will not admit to anything, they can’t stop spending time together. So let’s recap the affairs of the Twilight stars who deny dating.

August 6:
Rob was spotted early in the morning allegedly driving away from Kristin’s LA home. That night the pair sneaks into a Bobby Long concert at L.A’s Hotel Café and leave together in a cab.

August 7:
The “we’re not a couple” couple do a lunch date with friends, and both return to Hotel Cafe for another night of Bobby Long’s music. This time after the show they head to the Chateau Marmont (Rob’s hotel while he’s in LA) and let’s just say that no one emerged from the hotel that night. Although they were both seen in the morning getting fresh air on the same hotel balcony, though at different times…because the world can’t put 2 and 2 together.

August 8:
Robert wined and dined Kristin at The Hall at Palihouse. She showed up in a cab with an overnight bag and he was cruising in his green Porshe.

August 9:
Both attend the Teen Choice Awards where they were seated next to each other. The meet-at-a hotel-theme can only leave me assuming what happened that night.

So maybe in vampire land, hanging out everyday AND night doesn’t mean your dating, but the world’s not full of idiots, either these two are smitten or Kristin can’t get enough of Rob in the sack.

Afterall, the man who brought Edward Cullen to life receives nothing but praise from an ex-girlfriend. "Regardless of our constant fights the sex was incredibly good. Sexual tension between us was so great that we couldn't control it. It was wonderful."

Seems Robert Pattison's love life is a little bit complicated.
