how can we not..the whole situation is so sad, it's laughable.

but, i really do pray and hope they BOTH find peace and happiness in 2010 where ever their paths lead them. unless they get into porn, i can't fault either one of them on how they decide to support their children.

Personally, I find the sarcasm not so much fun. I worry that it feels like it's making fun of the opinion of others. To me.

My thoughts exactly (except Karuuna said it much better).

I thought it was funny. Mostly because that's kind of how Jon puts it out there.

If someone wrote up something like that about Kate, I'd probably find that amusing, too. I found her bit with the paparazzi on Leno funny, but others found it typical Kate behavior. LOL

I guess I think that extreme behaviors sometimes warrant some comedy. :-)

I think that's a bit different. I feel guilty laughing over the disintegration of a family but I agree that the situation has some ridiculous elements. Some of the comedy sketches are funny. It's tough to balance isn't it?

I have no problem with parodying the people, they've put themselves out there. The thing I worry about is when you base that sarcasm off of someone else's posted opinion. Then... maybe not as funny.

I was just watching the clip of kate on jay leno. it amazes me how we can talk to the astronauts on the space station, with hardly any delay, but he couldn't talk to kate without such a lag! LOL
i thought she did ok. she definitely doesn't have a writer cause i think her answers would have been more entertaining.

I was curious when someone mentioned the delay.. then I watched the recorded show.. that really IS annoying.

I thought she did ok. I thought she was mostly joking about DWTS and I was in awe that she would sing.

I can't see myself tuning into any kind of talk show Kate would do (other than the first show to know why I won't be tuning in), but if Kate were on DWTS, I don't think you could drag me away from the TV. I want to see that.

Texannie, jump to about 1:45. Leno asks her what's her fav song on her iPod and asks her to sing a line from it.

Well she isn't going to sign any record deals but let's just say she's way better than I'd be and probably closer to in tune than, um, Taylor Swift when she sang on DWTS.

Naja, you are the wizard of finding the perfect clip!!

As for DWTS, I like Kate, but she has a deep rooted need to control her environment and I think dancing requires a great deal of trust in the partner, so I think she might well be as stiff as Monica Seles and a couple of models who went out first.

I'd be less surprised at that than I was that Macy Gray was so not good.

Maybe Kate just answered the question about the reality show honestly. Maybe she answered DWTS because she really likes the show and would love to be able to dance. Maybe that is the first answer that came to mind when Jay asked the question. It doesn't mean she is looking to actually be on the show. For all we know, maybe she is, maybe she isn't.

Honestly, Kate is darned if she does darned if she doesn't with every single thing she says or does. It's too bad.

I don't like Kate but I thought she was fine on Leno. She was asked a question and she answered it! It's not like she's publicly campaigning to be on DWTS. I think as reality fans, most of us would like to be on a reality show, whether it's realistic or not (ie. I wouldn't last 5 minutes on Survivor but I may still wish to be on it).

It would kill me to be on DWTS! The only time in my life I could have even considered all that activity was when I was aerobic dancing several nights a week, yoga twice a week, in great shape, happy at work.. but I'd have been too busy and of course there would be the matter of trying to wear those shoes, let alone dance in them! And then finding a shorter than normal pro as well.

I'd do it if they let me wear my orthopedic shoes. or Birkenstocks. Other than that and not being able to bend too well and needing a cane for my knee, I'd do just fine.

Last night I got to watch the full show Kate her story. I was impressed. I didnt take it as a bash on Jon at all. If anything she held back.

I totally get why she is not on good terms with her parents. I dont speak to mine that much either. Different reasons but she is not alone in the world with having a bad relationship with your family.
