Kate Gosselin is a star? Really?

Are you a Dancing with the Stars fan?  The answer is probably yes, considering week after week, it's the most watched show.  Millions of us breathed a sigh of relief this week when mom of 8, Kate Gosselin, got kicked off.

Here's the main problem: Kate clearly can't dance, and she's not a star, so why the heck was she on Dancing with the Stars?  She's apparently famous because she has really active ovaries.  Can you believe the paparazzi follows her everywhere? Weird.

Here's what I don't get...why was her leaving the show so emotional?  She bawled her eyes out and got a standing ovation.  Everyone in the audience acted like she just found a cure for cancer, when in reality TV, she had zero coordination and told her super-nice dance partner, Tony Dovolani, that she wasn't learning the steps because "he wasn't teaching her correctly."  He retorted that he's taught world-class dancers, so he must be doing something right.

I say thank goodness we no longer have to hear her whine about how hard it is because she's dealing with "personal issues," and we no longer have to see her giving a death glare to the judges.

To you Kate: I know you're worried about the custody issue with your ex-husband, Jon.  I think I've found the perfect solution--you take 4 kids, and he'll take 4 kids.  That way it's even, and everyone wins!
