Octomom craziness on Today

L L CG

OMG.  Talk about judging (on my part).  That lady is BSC, horribly defensive, cannot listen to a question before answering what she thinks is the question, and cannot finish a sentence without interrupting herself (my personal pet peeve).  The last minute of this is funny just for the chaos.  The kids are very cute, and Ann Curry is right- this is totally normal behavior for 2 year olds, even if the mom wants to insist that they aren't like this.  Her 9 year old looks like a sweet girl and is a huge help, although I guess she doesn't really have a choice.

OMG.  I seriously sat there with my jaw dropped through that whole hot mess.  She is totally delusional, and Ann Curry couldn't have been more awkward, either.  Ugh.  While I do think the show set it up to be a little nuts  - was there some reason they couldn't confine the kids a bit, provide some toys to keep them entertained, or at least block their access to hot lights and such? - it was a wreck.  And did you see her house?  Not like mine would look so hot with 27 kids running around, but hello, maybe don't put it on the Today show, then.  Ugh.

She is a crazy lady!  Did you watch her Oprah interview?  She doesn't have an effing clue!!  Her household is complete chaos...those poor kids!

I'm all for big families but I just feel sorry for those kids.

no joke.  

And I think the interrupting herself sounds more like a nervous-doesn't-know-what-to-say tick, of sorts.

Watching all those kiddos made my head hurt.  She actually did a decent job of corralling them while trying to interview, but I agree with mlf - could they not have helped her out a little more?  I can't imagine a home with 14 kids.   OMG.  <-- I would need lots of these on a daily basis.

I love that David Gregory came in to help with the kids.  That was hilarious to me.

"By the time they cut to commercial, I was frantically snorting my Tri-Cyclen" I have GOT to remember to drop this line at some perfect moment.

I thought the same thing!  Too funny!
