On second thought …

Jon “hey look at me making out with some hot chick in your favorite magazine” Gosselin is rethinking his divorce with soon-to-be ex-wife Kate. Dude has apparently stopped the divorce process, which was expected to be finished by late November, In Touch Weekly has reported. The tabloid fixture learned that Kate had suffered a breakdown taping a TV pilot this month and “he knew he was responsible for her suffering.” (Awfully big ego, we say.)

Well, Dude did say he “despised” Kate during a Nightline interview on ABC. Oh and he has a propensity of making out with chicks while nearby photographers click away, so OK. Sounds like you might be right about this one, JG.

“He woke up one morning, looked in the mirror and didn’t like the reflection,” Jon’s attorney, Mark Jay Heller, tells In Touch. “He realized he’d made some bad choices.” 

Now we here at Glamorati think it’s a mighty big coinkidink that his sudden doubt comes just one day after TLC, the channel where Jon & Kate Plus 8 appears, announced that the show will now be called Kate Plus 8. Ouchie.

Perhaps it’s the Money Train Jon Gosselin wants to get on.

My life rocks

Hunky Eric Dane, his wife Rebecca Gayheart and former beauty queen Kari Ann Penich did NOT have sex, just tons of fun, the third wheel told TMZ.com.

The two-year-old video, taken in Penich’s apartment, is actually the trio pretending to “make a movie,” and how does one play like that? Get the two women in a bathtub where they soak each other up, that’s how! McSteamy — the nickname of Dane’s character on “Grey’s Anatomy — meanwhile pretended to be Steven Spielberg and called “action,” Kari Ann told TMZ.com.

Kari Ann claims the video, stored in her computer, was snatched by her Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab roomie singer Mindy McCready. But media reports say it was the other way around: Peniche stole from McCready, prompting the show to kick her off.

But in Kari Ann’s version of events, she went to the LAPD and filed a police report. Again, that conflicts with previous published reports claiming the tape surfaced during an official investigation of Peniche’s sex-for-hire business.

Like we said last night, this story’s got legs. Stay tuned.

In happier times ...

The TLC network has had it up to here with Jon Gosselin, the Ed Hardy-lovin’ co-star of its reality series hit “Jon & Kate Plus 8.” The channel has essentially prohibited Jon from shilling for designer Ed Hardy, whose wares he wears on the high-rated TV show, Radaronline.com reports. Just last week, the suits began blurring shirt logos and now it’s officially policy.

“TLC feels like they are being used by Jon,” a well-informed source told the Web site.”They want to send him a message loud and clear.” It’s deafening, really.

So now Jon has a crappy relationship with both the Kate-ster AND TLC. Batting a thousand Jonny! Heck, tensions got so out of control for the exes that Dude had to call the cops on wifey. Harsh? Had to? We’re wondering what you think.

Daddy who?

Remember musician Bill Hudson of “Hudson Brothers” fame? Didn’t think so. Well, he was married for a short time to Goldie Hawn, siring superstar Kate Hudson and her bro Oliver. Kate and Pops have had an on-and-off relationship over the years and now Dad wants it back on. Why? Cause Katie, currently caliente with Alex Rodriguez, the Yankees Lighting A-Rod, has a three-year-old half sister, Lalania, that Bill Hudson wants her to meet.  

Chances are slim Bill, especially when you use Life & Style magazine to relay this wish to your daughter, who apparently cut you off when she learned in 2006 that she had a baby sister. 

“Katie, I love you with all my heart, and I beg you to come home and meet your baby sister. There’s only a two-year difference between Ryder [Kate's son] and Lalania, and it saddens me that they haven’t once played together,” he told the magazine. Good luck with that.

Brrrrrrr!!!

Turns out late pop music icon Michael Jackson is inside a freezer and not six feet under at the Forrest Lawn cemetery in Hollywood Hills, Calif., TMZ.com reports. His final resting place is still being discussed but almost NO ONE wants MJ to be buried at Neverland except for rogue relative Jermaine Jackson, whose behavior has kept him at a distance from family. Hopefully, the Jacksons will figure out the MJ burial locale as easy as they can sing A-B-C.

Ten human beings

UPDATED Aug. 15: Jon & Kate met up at a park on Friday, looking a bit tense while their children appeared wierded out by the encounter, US Weekly magazine reports. Part of the tension between the two maybe Jon’s selection of a 23-year-old babysitter with whom he purportedly had a sexy night with on Aug. 1, the mag reports. END OF UPDATE

Not only is America privy to the ebb and flow drama that is Jon and Kate Gosselin’s marriage, but now so are police in the Wernersville, Pa. area. Authorities were called Thursday evening to the former couple’s home after the two engaged in a verbal argument, People.com reports. So all of a sudden Chez Gosselin turns into Jon and Kate Plus 8 Plus 8 cops.

When law enforcement arrived, Jon alleges, his estranged wife turned on the tear spigot just for cops. Kate tried to enter the home, but her ex wouldn’t let her past the gate. “She tried to ‘cry it up’ with the cops and it didn’t work,” Jon says. “They said, ‘You have to leave.’ “  

In other J+K+8 news, Daddy will host a pool party in Vegas, cause that’s where in transition ex-hubbos go to find themselves.

Still yummy

Some lawyers in Italy are celebrating tonight: Moneybags movie heartthrob George Clooney has hired a bevy of legal eagles to go after certain media publications and a photog who allegedly climbed onto his Italian villa property to take pictures of a 13-year-old girl, who was topless in a bedroom, TMZ.com reports. Not much more info about the teen was given, but don’t go thinking what we think you’re thinking. Said intrusive paparazzi also snapped pics of  Clooney and his girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis “enjoying private moments in the yard of his estate.” The Clooney pics, unfortunately for the mortified teen and the canoodling couple, have been published in two magazines, which are the target of Mr. Hot’s wrath.

Hilary Duff has been signed to do a remake of Bonnie and Clyde, Faye Dunaway’s breakout role. No one consulted Ms. Dunaway about the casting decision, and she is not pleased. “Couldn’t they have at least cast a real actress?” was Faye’s response to the news.

Hilary is showing herself to be no shrinking violet and responded in kind: “I think that my fans that are going to go see the movie don’t even know who she is. I think it was a little unnecessary but I might be mad if I looked like that now too.”

Call that one a draw.

So Star Jones commented on the release of Barbara Walters’ new book including the revelation that Barbara had an affair:

“It is a sad day when an icon like Barbara Walters, in the sunset of her life, is reduced to publicly branding herself as an adulterer, humiliating an innocent family with accounts of her illicit affair and speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book,” Jones told Us. “It speaks to her true character.”

A woman who pimped out her wedding and lied about stomach surgery is going to talk about character?

The comment from Barbara’s camp showed a little more class:

“I will not dignify this with a comment. Barbara’s written words say it all!”

Who doesn’t love a little drama.
