Watch out Hollywood, Hurricane Kate may be headed your way.
Now that her headline-grabbing divorce and custody battle with ex-husband Jon have made Kate Gosselin a tabloid star, television’s original Octomom is itching to ditch her mundane life in suburban Pennsylvania for a new beginning in sunny California, celebrity tipsters dish.
Pals say Kate’s busy making plans to move her brood of eight across country once her stint on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars comes to a close.
“Now that Kate has tasted the excitement of Hollywood, there is no way that she is going to return to Pennsylvania,” a friend of Kate’s blabbed to PopEater’s “Naughty or Nice Column” this week. “She is looking at homes in the Hollywood Hills in gated communities in the $2 million range. Kate is insisting the properties she sees have a pool, at least six bedrooms, an outdoor hot tub and, bizarrely, a recording studio!”
And what’s life in Tinseltown without an agent! We hear Kate’s got her sights set on career in acting — which could pose a problem if her screen presence is anything like her ballroom dancing!
“Kate thinks that after Jennifer Aniston’s last few films didn’t do so well, America needs a new girl next door. And who better to fill Jen’s shoes than Kate!”
Last week, TLC announced that it had ordered a full season of Twist of Kate, a new network reality soap starring Gosselin.
