Is Kate Gosselin joining The Talk?

Kate Gosselin is rumored to be joining The Talk as a new co-host now that Leah Remini and Holly Robinson Peete are out. Looks like Gosselin may be rebounding pretty quickly after Kate Plus 8 was canceled!

Will you watch The Talk if Kate Gosselin is a co-host?

Gosselin has been looking for a new gig and no doubt she’s had plenty simmering on the back burner. She’s also made it known that she’d love to do a talk show, so while the Kate Gosselin/The Talk rumor hasn’t been confirmed, a source tells HollyBaby.com it could happen.

A source tells the site, “Kate has been getting a lot of offers but finally one has come through that is a viable option. The Talk reached out to Kate and they want her to co-host for a few weeks after Kris Jenner fills in!”

So, phew… she probably won’t be joining The Talk as a permanent replacement. We’ll keep you posted…

Check out our rundown of career options for Kate Gosselin now that Kate Plus 8 is over.

When asked on Twitter if she’d be hosting, Kate responded: “IN GENERAL,WHEN DREAM OPP COMES,IM TAKING IT!”

Fans got excited because it sounded like Gosselin was a definite, but she replied: “I didn’t say that… I said WHEN my dream OPP knocks, I will take it! Lol! U hopeful fans! :)”

Just one more reason why I won’t watch the talk. From useless information to totally useless information.

Only 80 people signed her SAVE THE SHOW petition. NOBODY, except a handful of crazy people, want to see this woman on TV. She has no talent, no redeeming qualities and will only throw the father of her kids under the bus daily.

You bet I will watch. I am not jealous of her or hers. I just like to watch her. She is real.

Betsy commented on Aug 31 11 at 8:36 pm

Yes! I’ll watch if Kate is a guest host or permanent host.

MsGoody2Shoes commented on Aug 31 11 at 9:13 pm

Why on earth would i want to torture myself by watching that self-absorbed bitch. I’d rather have a root canal.

terri commented on Aug 31 11 at 10:07 pm

Will I watch, No, no, and heck no. Why do peopel insist if you don’t like Kate that you must be jealous? Jealous of what? Really, jealous of what? She is a reality star for the love of Pete not a talented or gifted performer. She is attractive but certainly not exceptional. Her looks are as manufactured as her “reality” show.

Leah commented on Aug 31 11 at 10:10 pm

Keep trying Kate. The reality is the majority of people have spoken, we dislike your abuse of your children and your constant lying. You have gotten away with too much already. Hopefully when you lose all of your “free” TLC handlers, you will be held accountable for the shrew you have become to your children. How could anyone trust any parenting information from you, an exploitative mother!

Joanie commented on Aug 31 11 at 10:17 pm

I will never watch Kate on any show. She is so self-centred and thinks the world owes her something. I’m sick of hearing how her kids deserve everthing and how she always manages to say something negative about Jon. She needs to go to therapy, get some tutoring in english and learn how to present herself. She needs major social skills because she lacks class and she should do alot of volunteer work so she can learn to focus on others instead of herself. Jealous? You,ve got to be kidding…….LOL.

Louise commented on Sep 01 11 at 6:12 pm

I will watch. I love her!

Pat Nelson commented on Sep 02 11 at 8:45 am

Who wants to watch her??????????????????

kevin commented on Sep 02 11 at 11:49 am

I’ll watch too… yes, all you haters are jealous because you’re not her :)

Judy commented on Sep 02 11 at 11:50 am

there is NO show or premise that I would watch with her in or on it. She is an untalented entity who has no reason for being in show business. Being able to manipulate and engineer people and situations into the birth of 6 children (really, 8, but she always forgets the other 2 too). When their birth brought fame and fortune to her, she was all for the kids ‘playing by her side, just coincidentally, in FRONT of cameras. NOW that they are no longer cutesy little toddlers (and people are revolting against her attempts to make them still look and act like toddlers), she has no use for them and has NO interaction with them (IF AT ALL POSSIBLE)! The Talk is shooting themselves in the foot by have her sit on stage and pretend to be a Co-Host. She hasn’t a clue what that entails and, therefore, has NO way to accomplish what is needed from her. Won’t Watch, Can’t Watch!

barbee commented on Sep 02 11 at 3:19 pm

I will no watch The Talk if Kate co-host. I want Holly back

Judy commented on Sep 02 11 at 4:13 pm

I tried to watch The Talk several times and the panel just didn’t mesh. Too many egos clashing. Kate Gosselin has the biggest ego I’ve ever seen, so this does not entice me in the least to give this show another shot.

Won’t be watching.

Heather commented on Sep 02 11 at 5:21 pm

Judy – Jealous of Kate? What exactly is there to be jealous of? That’s laughable.

Heather commented on Sep 02 11 at 5:22 pm

She was NOT asked to do the show. Kris Jenner is taking over for Sharon Marlee Matlin is coming on full time and comedian Sheryl Underwood is the third perm host.. Sorry Kate looks like you will have to find something else. NO ONE wants to hear what she has to say anyway.

Jersey Chick commented on Sep 02 11 at 9:51 pm

The Talk is not helping their (my understanding at least) dragging ratings by having Ms. Gosselin co-host. I have seen her on The View and once or twice on other shows and in my opinion, she has nothing to offer. That includes as a guest or host. She will just use the camera time as another opportunity to make disparaging remarks about her ex. The network, show, producers should know better than to have her on the show and hopefully poor ratings will be the result. I have not watched much of The Talk as I find it to be lacking in information and/or entertainment and will definitely not watch if I know Gosselin is appearing.

Sharon Reid commented on Sep 02 11 at 10:51 pm

What could Kate Gosselin possibly have to contribute to any discussion?
From the little that I’ve seen of this women she seems to have no interest in anyone but herself. Kind of like Julie Chen!!

MadTown Pam commented on Sep 04 11 at 5:27 pm

sorry but did not and do not care for Kate at all. I did not watch her show because of the BS on it. So if she is to join on the pure merit of having all those kids then no I will have to quit. At this point I am not sure if I am going to continue to begin with with Leah and Holly gone. I do not care for the two “sit ins” they have now. not funny and no chemistry.

Heather commented on Sep 08 11 at 9:02 am

Absolutely not. Wouldn’t watch anything with her on it. She is deplorable. Soooo to reiterate, A BIG FAT NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

claire commented on Sep 09 11 at 3:46 pm

Not a chance in hell! This woman is rude, fake and she could have her way she would a single person she needs the kids because w/o them there is no Kate plus 8, I’m sure not taking anybparenting advise from her or see her as supermom or hero, real moms do it alone w/o help from sitter and stuff for gods sake!

Katla commented on Sep 11 11 at 12:57 pm

NEVER! She needs to sit back and take a long hard look at what she has done to her family! She keeps saying that she does this for the kids, so I can provide for my kids, yada yada yada. Try being their mom! And maybe take care of them instead of all the nannies! Just because you had 8 kids does not make you a celeberty! There are many other families that have more kids than that and work hard to provide for them. Look at the Duggar family, fame has not changd them. They are still a loving Christian family! Love he Duggars!

kelly commented on Sep 13 11 at 12:56 pm

Still wouldn’t watch The Talk with a ignorant baby machine and a out of touch woman who can’t relate to my every day issues. Hell if that’s the case I should have my own show!!

Karen Shannon- Madison commented on Sep 14 11 at 2:38 pm

Still wouldn’t watch The Talk with a ignorant baby machine and a out of touch woman who can’t relate to my every day issues. Hell if that’s the case I should have my own show!! What motherly advice could Kate Gosslin EVER give anyone regarding parenting! And who in the hell would be jealous of a fake, deplorable mother, AVERAGE looking, untalented woman. I hate it when people cry “haters or jealous” because you don’t like someone. Stupid just stupid!

Karen Shannon- Madison commented on Sep 14 11 at 2:55 pm

how sad that people would watch the talk if kate joined. I mean we have to stop making people who treat others so poorly important in our world. We would have a nicer world if we picked kind hearted people on our tv. I think Leah and Holly are nice people I have turned off the talk and Big Brother I am very disappointed in Julie Chen I really thought she was a great standup person. I am thinking maybe she was jealous because we liked them anyway I found it sad I am done with Julie for good. You are right the two new girls don’t fit.

wendy commented on Sep 15 11 at 9:45 pm

HELL NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! will I watch the Talk with Gosselin as a co-host

jello commented on Sep 16 11 at 4:12 pm

She really is not that smart. She has nothing to offer on a talk show. So, no won’t watch her, she is just not that interesting.
