It’s no secret that I’m a huge hater of the Jon and Kate plus 8, and the Octomom crap. Sounds like a ploy to capitalize on your children for money to me, but despite my objections the show was popular. Was. No longer… between Kate (who’s mean as hell) and Jon (who’s got to be one of the world’s largest idiots) it appears the show is done for. However, Jon has been trying to make money by doing appearances, interviews, etc… and of course he’s been getting paid.
Apparently, that’s against his TLC contract. They are now suing him and he’s likely to end up broke. Didn’t this guy have a lawyer to advise him not only when he signed the contract, but when he was about to breach it?
Jon Gosselin has been raking in cash for interviews and appearances and TLC knows what he’s made and where he’s made it.
…the network wants all that money plus damages in a court battle that has the strong possibility of leaving Jon flat broke.
TLC already knows Jon has been paid for media appearances and every penny will come out in the lawsuit. The paydays are in violation of his contract with the network, which has a clearly defined exclusivity clause.
That contract is valid until February 2010, even though the show is no longer filming.
TLC has an option to renew Jon’s contract once it expires, thereby keeping him from doing projects on any other network.
Jon’s negative public comments also violate his contact and the network is seeking punitive damages against him and Jon will also be on the hook for TLC’s attorney’s fees if the network wins in court.
Jon also has a morals clause in his contract. His boozing and behavior could also be dragged into the lawsuit.
