Kate Gosselin Reminds Octomom Who Was The Original Horrible Reality TV Mom By Taping New Show With Eight Kids
October 29th, 2012 — Divorce
Kate Gosselin has been pretty quiet lately, but while we thought that meant she had finally given up on the famewhoring, it sounds like this silence is more plotting than surrender. Although it’s just a rumor right now, RadarOnline has heard tell that Kate is currently taping a brand-new reality show, and (no surprise) it’s based around her eight kids.
Now, let’s pause and remember that this tip comes from Robert Hoffman, who wrote a very negative tell-all titled Kate Gosselin: How She Fooled America. He’s also called Child Protective Services on her. The latest Octomom controversy has taught us that sometimes you do need outsiders to intervene for the children’s safety… but Nadya Suleman‘s ex-nannies stayed anonymous, whereas Hoffman obviously has an agenda and is trying to get famous.
Further casting doubt on this story is Hoffman’s own admission, to RadarOnline, that “I don’t know anything for fact.” However, he cites a credible source when he says, “I got a call from a source who told me about Kate filming the kids with someone else in the past two weeks for a new reality show. The person is a big name.”
He also claims that the new show will “exploit and humiliate” her sextuplets and twins, even moreso than the TLC show Jon and Kate Plus 8Â that made her famous. Now, a few months ago we heard that Kate was plotting to put her dating life up on the TV, but it sounds like no networks ever took the bait. So, it would be sad if she were reverting back to thrusting her kids in the spotlight for the attention she obviously craves. She claims that her kids “miss the crew,” but the adults they should have in their lives are teachers and parents who care about their well-being first.
It should come as no surprise that Kate is currently tweeting throughout the duration of Hurricane Sandy, keeping her 120,000 followers updated as to how she and the kids are prepping for the storm. Oh, and she’s retweeting everyone who says they’re watching the Kate Plus 8 marathon. Yep, we still know where her priorities are.

As If! The Clueless Musical Will Be A Jukebox Musical Of ’90s Classics
October 29th, 2012 — Divorce

Did you know that they’re making a Clueless musical?! Because it’s news to us, and just that sentence alone is the most fantastic news we’ve heard in days. It turns out that this has been in the works since at least 2009, when the guy who adapted Saved! into a musical — another one we missed out on! — tried his hand at Amy Heckerling‘s classic ’90s comedy.
As you might’ve guessed, the project floundered for a few years, but it came up again in Heckerling’s latest interview with Vulture about her new movie Vamps. While this dark comedy reunited Heckerling with Alicia Silverstone, she didn’t necessarily have plans to bring the original Cher Horowitz to the Broadway stage. She also reassured us that they wouldn’t be trying to transplant the characters into the ’00s:
You’re working on a Clueless musical. Would it be updated to modern times? Would you make room for an Alicia cameo?
That would be a blast to have her in it. But I’m not updating it—it’s fun to keep it in that time period. I’m working with Kristin Hanggi, who directed Rock of Ages. I want it to be a jukebox musical.
You’ve got to keep “Rollin’ With My Homies”!
Or something with hand movements, right? There’s a lot of songs that could work there, like “Fantastic Voyage,” with its “slide, slide, slippity slide.” A lot of things that could lead to you getting conked. We used “Kids in America” in Clueless, but it was one of the songs I was considering for Fast Times, before I knew if I could get the Go-Gos.
It makes a lot of sense that Heckerling would defend keeping the story in the ’90s, since earlier in the interview she rants about how you shouldn’t judge a person for having an AOL e-mail address. Anyway, it’d be redundant to try and translate Clueless to modern-day, since that’s basically Mean Girls. (And yes, there’s a musical version of that in the works, too.)
We’re so psyched to learn that we can keep listening to our Clueless soundtracks — on CD, natch — without feeling like we’d have to embrace a whole new era of music for the stage show. After all, it’s the only movie to make us associate Coolio‘s music with that excitement of first love:
