Jon Gosselin and Michael Lohan pitching reality show: Divorced Dads’ Club

So Jon Gosselin is living it up and chilling with Michael Lohan. That’s how you know you’ve really reached the level of true, legit celebrity: when you’re chilling with a Lohan. Now to be honest, you really want to chill with Ali because she’s up-and-coming. Next would be Lindsay, who’s on the way out. After that I would say to chill with Mike Lohan’s maybe-daughter/Lindsay’s half-sister (I guess the DNA results are still pending, a full year later). And then, then you settle for Mike. I’d stay away from Dina altogether. Anyway, Jon Gosselin is hanging out with Mike Lohan, baring his flip-flop toes for all the world to see. While the two were bonding over their shockingly curvy man calves, they’ve also had time to talk shop. “Shop” in this sense meaning “how to exploit our children for money and fame and deal with Ed Hardy.” And they’ve decided it’s time to go into business together, working their own “Divorced Dads” reality show.

“JON & Kate Plus 8″ womanizer Jon Gosselin is shopping a new show based on being a single dad, sources said. The Gosselins have earned as much as $75,000 per episode with “Jon & Kate,” but insiders said most of the money goes toward the kids, and that Jon is hard up for cash. “He’s looking for endorsement deals to get that extra money,” one source said. Hollywood broker Mike Heller is trying to help Gosselin. Fame-mad Michael Lohan introduced Heller to Gosselin (Heller used to broker deals for Lindsay Lohan), and told us he helped brainstorm a new show, “Divorced Dads Club.” But our insider insists, “Michael will not be involved,” adding, “Jon has been approached to do various reality shows, but due to his contract with TLC, he can’t begin to think about doing anything right now.” Reps for both TLC and Gosselin declined to comment.

Nonetheless, it sounds like Gosselin is definitely working on brokering some kind of deal. Star reports this story in this week’s edition and has a deep quote from Jon Gosselin that semi-confirms the news: “It’s expensive to have eight kids. I just want to make some money so they will be taken care of.” Thanks dude, I bet that totally took you by surprise, huh? You mean it’s sorta selfish and not cool to spend nearly a grand on new shoes for yourself when you have eight hungry little mouths to feed? Who’d a thought? Last week Jon had dinner with “Real Housewives of New York City” member Jill Zarin and her husband, along with Mike Lohan and his girlfriend and the mayor of Southampton and his wife.

Jill noted that Jon was “like a young, fun, loving-life kind of guy who happens to have eight kids that he’s got to take care of,” which seems to be about how Jon sees it too. But that’s quite the interesting combination of people, and the Zarin connection sure makes it sound like they’re working on some sort of project.

Personally I think the only intriguing thing about Jon Gosselin is that he’s got eight kids and how stupid he is. He’s making dumb choices in who he dates and who he hangs out with. Though frankly, as bad as having an affair is, and as pathetic as it is to date a bunch of women at once, the most pitiable thing about Jon Gosselin is hanging out with Mike Lohan.

    If you’ve already sold out your kids on a show like J&K+8, than a reality show with a Lohan is no great fall. I guess they’ve all gotten used to a certain lifestyle and will do anything to continue it.

    I hope this means that this is the peak of disgusting reality tv. Everything else can be downhill and much more muted. Can this be it pleasepleaseplease?! And then banish them to the 8th circle of hell a la Dante?

    I’m hoping we’re peaking on the, “non-reality, reality shows.”

    Seriously? Will there be cameos from other thoroughly ridiculous quasi-celeb divorced dads?

    Will David Hasselhoff come and drunkly binge-eat a cheeseburger on the first episode?

    Those two are Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb incarnate. Michael is definitely Tweedle Dee since he is more schemey.

    Jon hangs around with Michael Lohan with the hopes of meeting Lyndsay. She’s totally his type, airhead, drunken fool, cokehead, public intoxication history, and yes, the final and most important pre-requisite, she’s only 22 years old!!

    How can a self proclaimed Christian assist (ew) Jon in his ‘shacking up’ shenanigans, at his very own house?? I guess we know the answer now. He was looking for a $ opportunity. Hey Dad – your daughter is spiraling out of control – she’ll likely die. I can’t fathom how you can look so happy and chummy with the slim-ball you are enabling.

    Sorry peeps, I finally had to spew about how sick this whole scenario makes me. Back to no comment.

    Couple of losers, unattractive at that. Sad commentary on society. Lohan should crawl back under his rock and Jon’s only talent was making some particularly adorable children.

    Losers ….. that is the lamest thing i have ever heard. Jon and Michael don’t seem like the “role-model” kind of dads. Lindsey cannot even keep herself grounded in life and Jon …. we’ll he is allover with whoever wants to. Luckily Kate is still kind of stable and their kids have a chance at a kind-of-normal life

    How about “Get a Real Job and Support Your Eight Kids Show?” Kate is a jerk but why wait all this time to do something about it? He should have confronted her before TLC came a knockin’. He let her treat him that way for years. Treat me bad once, shame on you. Treat me bad twice, shame on me.

    Sadly, divorced dads show would be a hit – because of all the loser tv viewers who would flip over to watch. We’ve made this mess.

    I sure would hate to be one of those companies that sponsored a show Jon was on. It would be just as fun to start the boycott of their products…just for another couch potato thing to do.
