Jon & Kate Divorce » clothing line

Change isn’t necessarily good…

Jon’s good buddy Christian Audigier probably can’t claim BFF status like Mike Lohan, but he didn’t just fall off the turnip truck yesterday. Even he is saying that Jon has changed a lot since the divorce announcement. Kinda blows a hole in Jon’s “I’ve always been like this” claim, doesn’t it?

However this doesn’t seem to deter the fashion designer. While nothing is locked in yet, it sounds like Audigier is still interested in doing business with the octodad.

But one thing is for sure, “Jon wants to do something involving bikes,” said Audigier. “He’s a biker.” (source)

Now that is rich. So just because you like “fast things”, piercings, and wearable cloth tattoos, suddenly that makes you a biker? Audigier thinks waay too much of his Ed Hardy line. And if Jon’s a biker, then I’m a trapeze artist.

Well, Which Is It?

Rumors are flying back and forth on whether or not Jon will be working on a new clothing line with designer Christian Audigier. One source says “yes”, the next says “no”. This article posted on BuddyTV.com says, “yes”. It addresses the rumors that there will be no clothing line, but says that in an interview with E! Online, Audigier mentioned that the children’s line has the go ahead.

However, a recent interview that E! Online had with Christian Audigier seems to point to the other direction. “It should be [happening],” the French designer admitted.

Knowing the Gosselin’s penchant for “selling out”, I’m sure that this clothing line will happen. There is just too much money to be made in a opportunity like this. And I’m sure, as per a previous article posted, that Jon will have no scruples using his children as convenient models to help drive sales for the new clothes.

Cashing In

First it was all Kate who was cashing in on the bumper crop that is her family. But now Jon has joined right on in. While he was on the French Riviera cuddling up with Hailey Glassman, he was also getting busy cutting a new deal with clothing designer Christian Audigier, creator of the infamous Ed Hardy line. Both Gosselin and Audigier will be working on a new line of children’s clothing. And I’ll give you one guess as to who will be helping promote the clothes. Oh, who am I kidding? It doesn’t even take a guess to know that Jon will be using his kids as models.

Full story here.

UPDATE: It seems we were all too presumptuous in assuming that Jon was in France to seal the deal with designer Audigier. This article claims that they will not, in fact, be working together on a new children’s clothing line.

Putting Kate on Hold

At this point, pretty much anything regarding or associated with Jon & Kate is backfiring. Another project to bite the dust is Kate’s clothing line for children. Currently the line is “on hold”, but personally I say hang up the phone. This would just be one more way for Kate to cash in on her kids and her sticky TV show situation. And who thought she was qualified to design clothes anyways?
