You had to think news of Jon and Kate's divorce would send the ratings into a tailspin, but how about if one of them (Jon Gosselin?) is fired? That would be even worse for the show, and might even cause cancellation (and loss of their tabloid-reported $1.5 million annual salaries, each).That's the rumor flooding the Web today. It's not only that Jon was / is / might be fired, but also that Jon Gosselin wants to be fired, according to reports.
Why would Jon Gosselin want to be fired? TMZ reports he's actually been approached to be in his own reality TV show, which would be called "Divorced Dad's Club."
of course, his current contract for "Jon and Kate" would probably prevent him from being able to take part in that new show. However, TMZ says, and this is where the "Jon Gosselin fired" rumors probably started, that TLC "fired off" a letter to him telling him he was in violation of the morals clause of his contract, as he's been seen going into bars and drinking.
That would seem to indicate that Jon Gosselin is not fired, but he's walking the razor's edge. However, while some posit that he's trying to get fired, why would he want to do so? Dropping a $1.5 million contract for something else? Unless he's getting the same, I can't see it. On the other, perhaps he see that show is living on borrowed time since the split.
