Octomom Preps for Primetime

How many of you really believed that the reason Nadya Suleman gave birth to 14 children was simply because she absolutely adores kids? Call me a cynic, but I never bought the whole I-grew-up-an-only-child-and-have-so-much-love-to-give bit. Turns out the truth behind Suleman’s decision to be a human incubator may finally be revealed. Reports claim that the mother of octuplets (plus six other young children) is very close to signing a deal to star in a reality TV show. PEOPLE magazine is reporting that Suleman has been meeting with various production companies and executives at an undisclosed network to hammer out a … Continue reading →

Another Ride on the Octuplet Mom Nadya Suleman Circus Train

Brace yourselves people – we are in a bumpy ride as the story of the Octuplet mom Nadya Suleman continues to unfold. In the story that just won’t seem to go away, the latest news is that Suleman has fired her free nursing service. The not-for-profit organization Angels in Waiting (AIW) had offered their nursing services free of charge to Suleman. The suggestion of AIW was made by none other than Dr. Phil. Since the first four babies started coming home recently, this seemed like it might be a welcomed relief to what many believe to be an already overloaded … Continue reading →

More on the Octuplets

There is more news (and drama) surrounding the newborn octuplets. You already know Nadya’s mother is not happy with the situation, having to help raise the first six children. The latest spat between the mother and daughter is available for viewing at RadarOnline.com. Again, mom Angela told Nadya she didn’t understand why she had the octuplets and Nadya said there was no way she would destroy the embryos and her mother needs to “let it go.” I watched part of the interview and Nadya just seems totally clueless as to the reality of the situation. Now her father, Ed Doud, … Continue reading →

What Happens When Your Own Mother Thinks You’re an Abomination

Ask Nadya Suleman. The California woman who used fertility treatment to give birth to octuplets should be celebrating the fact that her eight newborns are alive and flourishing, but instead she’s dealing with hundreds of death threats, seething public ridicule and the paparazzi. Oh, and apparently her own mother doesn’t think much of her either. Earlier this week Angela Suleman told an online news site that what her daughter has done to become a single mother of 14 is “unconscionable.” Nadya’s mom went on to say that she questions how her unemployed daughter, who already has six children, will cope … Continue reading →

Nadya Suleman’s Website

“Oh no she isn’t!” was the first thing I thought today when I read the CNN headline “Octuplets’ mom seeks online donations.” Nadya Suleman has set up a web site for donations for her new octuplets. The site offered three places where you could click to make a donation. In her first interview, Nadya said she loved her babies “unconditionally, accepting them unconditionally, everything I do. I’ll stop my life for them and be present with them and hold them and be with them. And how many parents do that? Oh, now my head is hurting. I have been a … Continue reading →

Ann Curry Lands First Interview with Mother of Octuplets

How did she do it? How did Ann Curry of NBC’s Today show beat out Oprah, Diane Sawyer, Katie Couric, and Barbara Walters to land the interview of the year? Talk about a “get.” According to Nadya Suleman’s publicist (yes, she already has a publicist and by the end of the month I’m sure she’ll also have a TV agent, a book agent, and an entire entourage of handlers) the 33-year-old mother of eight newborns sat down with Curry this morning. Reports say that Suleman left a Southern California hospital this morning and headed for her first interview with the … Continue reading →

Octuplet Story Controversy Continues

A few days ago, I wrote about the California mom of six, Nadya Suleman, who just gave birth to octuplets. In case you are as bad at math as I am, that is eight babies. Nadya already has six children, is divorced, and living with her parents in a three bedroom house outside Los Angeles. Earlier reports from Nadya’s mother, Angela, seemed to lean towards the fact that Angela supported her daughter. She said her daughter had always been obsessed with having children, but was a good mother. Now it seems that Angela was not being 100% truthful. Angela has … Continue reading →

Mother of Octuplets Raises Questions About Parental Responsibility

Will it be Oprah, Diane Sawyer, or Barbara Walters? According to news reports, Nadya Suleman, the California woman who gave birth to eight babies last week, is currently deciding which big name TV interviewer she’ll sit down and chat with. Meanwhile, another report claims that the 33-year-old single mother of 14 is seeking $2 million from commercial sponsorship (she reportedly wants to hook up with Pampers) and other media interviews to help defray the cost of raising her eight babies and the other six children (all under the age of eight) that she already has. No doubt Nadya is going … Continue reading →

Mom Adds Octuplets to Brood of Six

By now, you may have read the story about the California mom who just gave birth to octuplets – that’s right, eight babies. While the mom, who had six children already, is not a celebrity, it is almost that the babies will be. After all, the mom is only the second person in U.S. history to give birth to eight babies at once. I don’t know about you, but I certainly don’t envy her! All the babies are reportedly doing fine, but may have to stay in the hospital up to two months as a precaution. But, there is quite … Continue reading →
