CONFIRMED: Octomom Gets Her Own TV Show!

It's been confirmed: Octomom Nadya Suleman inks a deal for her own reality show!  Forget what she said about exploiting her babies - those 14 precious children are mama's paycheck!

From Us:

After weeks of meetings and negotiations, Suleman’s attorney Jeff Czech confirmed exclusively to Usmagazine.com that Suleman signed a deal Thursday night to star in her own reality series.

"[Nadya and the producers] are hoping to have an arrangement whereby several events in the children's lives would be filmed in a documentary series," Czech told Us.

“One of the events in the children's lives might be their first birthday.”

Describing the as-yet untitled show as a “quasi-reality TV series”, Czech said that the production company, Eyeworks, was moving ahead to make a deal with a network.

“They might be several shows aired during a year. There are all kinds of possibilities. It really depends on what the networks want," her lawyer said.

Czech declined to comment on how much Nadya would be getting paid for the deal, citing confidentiality.

“Her television program will not be like the Jon and Kate Plus 8 show,” said Czech. "[Nadya] is looking forward to providing her side of the story."

So, what's your stance on this?  On one hand, if she's doing a show, then she's going to have an income to be able to support her kids.  However, will people feel like she's exploiting her children (much like the public is thinking that the Gosselins are)?  But, look at the alternative - Nadya sucking money from the taxpayers to support her babies.

The question is: Will you watch?

No. Let's face it, who wants to watch a woman struggle through life with 14 kids? I had a hard time struggling through with 5, now I get the privilege of raising my grandchildren. I'll stick to Survivor, Big Brother, and American Idol. I prefer fiction for any other entertainment.

I won't buy the book as I know many others won't either.  We are tired of lazy, shiftless, greedy women having litters for us to support.

As for the show, if and I say "IF" it comes to the U.S. I will watch it once to make a list of sponsors, advertisers and product placement and then never again as I will be busy blogging, sharing info against Octoslut and contacting all sponsors, etc. that we will all be boycotting them.

Just an initial judge of how popular she is with advertisers, octoslut came on tv and whined that she was the only mother of multiples who did not get free diapers, formula and other things.  I contacted all the baby sponsors, Gerbers, Pampers, Luvs, General Mills, Proctor and Gamble and told them I was boycotting them and they wrote back that they were not giving octomom anything.  I also contacted TLC who said that they were not planning on giving her a show.

Without sponsors, there is no show.

I will definitely watch! Oh my God, I am so excited to see what her life is like! I don't think she's exploiting her kids, they are probably looking forward to getting to share their story. Ever since I heard about her, I wondered what it must be like to live with 14 kids, or with 13 siblings. I guess now I'll finally get to find out.
