Radar Online reports that Jon and Kate Gosselin‘s expansive brood of kids are causing havoc at their school this holiday season—by telling their schoolmates that Santa Claus is a fraudulent myth foisted upon them by their parents.

A family friend reveals that Papa Gosselin has been flooded with outraged phone calls from parents of his kids’ classmates:

“The kids don’t believe in Santa Claus, and they’re telling other kids at school that there is no Santa Claus…He has received many phone calls from parents because the kids actually told others that ‘your parents are lying to you’ causing them to get upset.”

Naturally, their cynicism about the holiday aside, the Gosselin kids are still expecting presents this Yuletide. According to the source,

“They enjoy different things so while one wants a scooter, the other wants a bike. They also want trucks and dolls and games.”

Good luck with that, kids. As for their disillusioned school chums, perhaps they take solace in the immortal words of former New York Sun journalist Frank Church:

The 35-year-old reality TV mom tells People magazine that, contrary to recent reports, her six-year-olds, Collin and Alexis, weren’t expelled:

“The school would never use that word. [Collin and Alexis] were not expelled. [The school] did not feel like they could meet their needs anymore, so it was decided they should leave, for now.”

For the time being, Gosselin notes, Collin and Alexis are being taught by a private tutor who’s employing an “identical curriculum” to the school’s.

So what led to the kids’ sudden turn toward home-schooling? Naturally, the Kate Plus 8 matriarch places the blame squarely on the shoulders of Jon, whom she divorced in December 2009:

“They’ve been the ones to verbalize the most that they miss Daddy. I could see that they’re the ones struggling the most…[Collin] was upset and saying things out of frustration – he’d crumple his papers and throw them on the floor. Alexis was angry in a different way. She didn’t want to sit still. She’d get up and want to run around.”

Gosselin adds that the troubled tots are currently seeing a therapist and are “doing much, much better.”

If the shrink is that good, maybe Kate should send him Jon’s way when he’s done with the kids.

According to PopEater, the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 dad is planning to follow in authoress Kate’s footsteps and publish a book. The best part? The as-yet-untitled tome will focus on Papa Goss’ fathering style.

A friend of Gosselin’s spills,

“Jon is still deciding what exactly the book will be about, but knows he wants to focus on his parenting skills. There is no deal yet or timeline, but the [interest] in Jon from publishers is huge right now, so he’s going to strike while the iron is hot.”

Gosselin will be co-authoring the book with leadership coach Dr. Sylvia Lafair, who helped the reality TV dad through his rocky divorce last year.

Sadly, a source notes, the book won’t be delving into Gosselin’s party-animal phase following his split with the mother of his eight children:

“Expect the book to include Jon’s journey from high school to father of sextuplets by age 27. What the book won’t be focusing on is how quickly he moved on, after Kate, with two much younger girlfriends, his partying nights in Las Vegas or his new huge tattoo that covers his entire back.”

Hopefully he’s saving all that for the follow-up.

According to the reality-TV dad’s life coach, Sylvia Lafair, who’ll be co-penning the tome,

“The book is about having eight kids all at once when he was under the age of 30…It includes some of the lessons that Jon has been learning with helpful hints on how he is working to reframe his relationship with his family including his two brothers and his mother. It also explores how the death of his father affected him.”

Sounds like a real page-turner—and, we imagine, some serious competition for ex-wife Kate Gosselin‘s ongoing literary efforts.

In the video which was filmed in 2009 while he was on a vacation in St. Tropez, Jon tells Hailey about a drunken party he attended with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier the previous night. Jon also goes on to diss the good people of France:

[As Hailey drinks a bottle of Evian water] They probably dipped that bottle in the toilet and put a lid on it. [...] The only nice things here [in St. Tropez] are the cars… and the boats.

Jon then goes on to mimic the way the wealthy vacationers of St. Tropez dress by hiking up his boardshorts to his waist and walking around like Steve Urkel from Family Matters.

Throughout the video, Jon is obviously drunk or stoned (or a combination of the two) and he peppers his conversation with Hailey in the video with mean-spiritied and angry digs at the French.

While it is pretty obvious that the former Jon and Kate Plus 8 star seriously dislikes the people of France, we imagine that the French would probably be delighted to know that the Ed Hardy-loving Jon disliked their sartorial choices.

Check out the video here.

Radar Online has obtained a home video purporting to show the slothful, work-averse former Jon & Kate Plus 8 dad stoned out his gourd with former girlfriend Hailey Glassman. And given the rambling, bizarre behavior that Gosselin engages in on the tape—filmed while the couple vacationed in St. Tropez with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier last summer—it’s hard to attribute his actions to anything other than a dope-addled cranium.

As the tape opens, Gosselin describes their culinary habits while hanging in France:

“We’re munching on Pringles here in beautiful St. Tropez, eating quality food because every time we eat, we either get swollen boobs or I sh*t myself.”

Papa Jon goes on to offer would-be tourists advice if they should ever visit the area:

“Don’t ever go to a hair salon in France…Especially if you’re Jewish…doubly especially if you’re a New York Jew.”

As a cautionary example, Gosselin explains that, after a mishap at a local hair salon, Glassman’s hair came out looking  “like big Jewish pubes.” Oh, Jon; you silver-tongued devil…

Ah, but then the real fun begins, as Gosselin details a dubious local custom. While shoving a cigarette up his nostril. Uh-huh, that’s right:

“This is how the French smoke. They smoke so much they put cigarettes in every orifice of their body.”

Perhaps you should shove one of those cancer sticks in your mouth, Jon, because you’re really making a fool out of yourself right now.

According to a source with intimate knowledge of the once-charmed couple’s French sojourn,

“All they did [on their trip] was drink Crystal and smoke spliffs with the friends they were with. Whenever someone was sparking it up, they were right there smoking it.”

Um, yeah; no kidding.

Go ahead and check out the video here.

RadarOnline has obtained text messages from Hailey that they say proves that Jon staged a break-in into his New York apartment. At the time, Jon accused 23-year-old Hailey of breaking into his apartment. However, police investigated the matter and cleared Hailey of any wrongdoing.

While Hailey didn’t steal anything from Jon’s apartment, she does claim that he set her up to take the fall and was planning the break-in so he could avoid eviction from his apartment and gain some publicity.

From RadarOnline:

On December 16, 2009, Jon texted, ‘Leave the key on the counter. Not kidding. I told u if u choose them our friendship is over. Your choice. That’s not manipulation, that’s your choice.’

Jon then texts Hailey she needs to be ‘Out before Christmas. Take the furniture and t.v. That is a gift.’

The TV is the crucial part as Jon later accused Hailey of stealing it in the break-in.

On December 17, Jon texted Hailey, ‘That’s fine, I’m understanding. Do u know why u have to move out, let me explain. If I were to get evicted, they would seize the apartment and all.’

He then writes, ‘I can’t text my plan.’

Sounds shady! And very much like something that Jon would do.

Now Jon could face some serious charges for allegedly filing a fake police report and staging a break-in.

Hailey is campaigning hard to land a role on a new reality TV show that plans to do for JAPs, or Jewish American Princesses, what Jersey Shore did for guidos.

Hailey tells her BFFs, RadarOnline, that she is “the ultimate JAP” and should be “the first to be cast.”

What is a “true” JAP, according to stereotype expert Hailey? From RadarOnline:

We JAPS have what I like to call entitlement syndrome [...] I only wear designer brands, I don’t eat meat off the bone, I drink Figi water or Pellegrino. I would rather die of dehydration than drink tap water. My signature outfit is black spandex, Uggs and white v-neck t-shirts. It’s a different mentality.

Ah yes: entitlement, unfashionable taste, eating like a child, these are all things that one should be proud of.

Luckily for Hailey, an aggressive lack of self-awareness is exactly what is needed to become a reality television star. We’re rooting for her!

Alas, there won’t be any spitballs flying between the two while the teacher attempts to instill them with parenting skills—it’s expected that the pair will be taking separate classes.

Jon had better pay attention, because if he ends up having to wear a dunce cap, it’s really going to mess up that sweet, sweet fauxhawk that he’s been cultivating lately.

In a stunning victory for media exploiters of young children everywhere. the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry has deemed that Jon and Kate Gosselin‘s children can return to the small screen, after a heated legal battle that even found Kate’s brother testifying against her. Which means that Kate’s upcoming reality-show spinoff, Kate Plus 8, has a green light from a legal standpoint. (We’ll leave you to ponder the moral and ethical aspects, dear reader.)

According to a rep for the Labor and Industry department,

“The proper steps have been taken and the kids are permitted for Kate Plus 8.”

It still remains to be seen whether the octet of rugrats will be given the go-ahead to appear on mommy’s other upcoming show, Twist of Kate. To say nothing of what role they might play on whatever new TV venture that Papa Jon might be cooking up.

Either way, these kids will clearly have no shortage of work in the months to come. See, people? Who says the job market’s in rough shape?

It’s no secret that Jon has been unemployed since his reality show Jon and Kate Plus 8 went off the air, and after blowing through whatever money TLC gave him on Ed Hardy t-shirts and vacations with Michael Lohan, Jon is finally waking up and realizing that he needs a job.

Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it) Jon has his sights on coming back to TV or, in his words, “a job in some aspect of TV, probably a host.”

Jon is also looking for ways to free up some cash until he lands that dream television gig and he is currently looking for someone to buy hi BMW. A source also says that Jon has a wealthy sugar momma in Washington D.C. who Jon is hoping will finance some of his projects.

Are you excited for Jon’s return to television? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

The daddy of eight has been in the news a lot lately thanks in part to his press-loving lawyer Anthony List who made atrocious claims that Kate Gosselin was a bad mother for working to support her kids and a self-promotional wannabe starlet. (Okay, so that last one might have a ring of truth.)

Now, it turns out that Jon fired Anthony last week, although the wacky lawyer still feels the need to release statements on his former client’s behalf. Jon took to Twitter, the D-list celebrity’s publicist, to clear his name:

Mr. Anthony List Sr., Esw. is not my representing attorney; I terminated him on April 15, 2010.

He has no legal right to speak to the press or anyone on my behalf.

Kate, her attorney and I are moving forward to work out things privately and amicably.

Well, look on the bright side Jon, with the money you saved in firing Anthony you can now buy all the hair gel in Pennsylvania to maintain your fabulous new faux-hawk.

Judging from her current track record, we’re sure that there are plenty of loser, freeloading men who wear Ed Hardy t-shirts who would be more than willing to make Kate their sugar momma, but Kate isn’t settling for “regular” men to alienate and eventually break up with. Nope, our Kate is setting her sights on a celebrity beau.

Insiders tell PopEater that Kate wants a celebrity man to change her life and bring her into the Hollywood fold. From PopEater:

When Kate sees how Tom Cruise changed Katie Holmes life, it became clear that she needed to do the same. Obviously, she knows she’s not yet ready to date a George Clooney, but she thinks she would be the perfect partner for a Jeff Goldblum or someone like David Hasselhoff.

Yes, Kate “isn’t ready” to date George yet. Just give her some time, George, and then you can start wooing America’s Sweetheart.

However, we think it is funny that Kate’s choice celebrity boyfriends are both middle-aged men who are pretty much past their prime. Shoot for the stars, Kate!

Who do you think Kate should date? Let us know who your choices are in the comments below.

Stephanie Santoro Kate’s former nanny reveals to Life and Style (via Huffington Post) that Kate hasn’t had sex in 15 months and that Kate and Jon Gosselin stopped being intimate since the very beginning of 2009.

How does Stephanie know this? Well, she hooked up with dreamboat Jon after he and Kate split so we know that she has great judgment and is really good at reading people. Also, Jon may or may not have told her about Kate’s sexual habits, because he is disgusting.

Unfortunately for Kate (but maybe fortunately for us) she doesn’t have time to date and jump around from one trashy lover to the next like Jon because she is busy working and taking care of their eight children. So it seems reasonable that she wouldn’t be able to find time to hook up with some guy in 15 months since she has obviously been pretty busy.

Now we are just waiting to hear that Jon has decided to become celibate so that we can stop having those nightmares at night.

The former Jon & Kate Plus 8 dad hit up the Apple store in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, on Thursday to pick himself up a nifty new Apple TV, and because he apparently felt that not enough people point and laugh at him behind his back lately, J-Goss sculpted what remaining hair he has into a fauxhawk. Which is, as everyone knows, the preferred hairstyle for sleazy dudes who buy their Axe body spray and roofies in bulk.

Marvel at Papa Jon’s bold new look in our photo gallery and share with us in the comments section: Is this guy sex on a stick, or what?

Jon was spotted struggling to rescue his 4-wheeler from a deep hole as he went on a joy-riding session in Reading, Pennsylvania. Jon was eventually able to recover his 4-wheeler but his dignity, career, and romantic life are still stuck somewhere in the mud around Reading.

Kreider delivered the bombshell while testifying in a child-welfare hearing in Pennsylvania on Wednesday, which sought to determine whether the taping of the show had a negative impact on the Gosselin kids. Kreider, opining that the show was indeed damaging to the octet of rugrats, says that the tots were subjected to multiple take on the “reality” series—and were even forced to fake Christmas! Kreider told the court,

“One very vivid example comes to mind. The children were told it was Christmas morning. It was so the camera crew could get the genuine reaction of the children. It wasn’t until after, until later, that they were told it was not Christmas morning; they just did it for the show. Can you imagine how confused eight little kids were that morning?”

Frankly, we’re a little confused ourselves right now. Does this mean that Kate isn’t really a verbally castrating harpy? Or that Jon isn’t actually a ne’er-do-well manchild?

Can anyone recommend a good therapist?
