Sarah Palin Tapped by NBC To Battle Katie Couric Tuesday Morning

In an attempt to combat Katie Couric's comeback as morning show queen on ABC, as she fills in for Robin Roberts while she takes some time off, NBC has called upon Sarah Palin to step in as co-host Tuesday morning. Sarah will reportedly give her take on the republican Presidential candidates and current President Barack Obama, as well as act as co-host on the morning news program.

NBC has also promised a major legend as a guest on Monday and filled the roster for the rest of the week with other extremely high-profile guests, including Nadya Sulemon (California's newest welfare recipient), Tori Spelling and Giuliana and Bill Rancic who will discuss Giuliana's decision not to undergo chemotherapy as part of her battle against her breast cancer. Giuliana and Bill have been somewhat under fire because of her decision to skip chemo in favor of a double mastectomy and some feel she is personally responsible for causing others to not make the best decision for themselves when dealing with breast cancer.

Will it be enough to stop viewers from watching “Good Morning America?”

CBS is giving it the old college try as well with co-anchor Gayle King pulling in bestie Oprah Winfrey and a teaser promising that Oprah opens up about things she has never talked about before. What that could be is anyone's guess as the woman's life has been out there for decades, but I will suspect that recently ousted from Oprah's OWN network, Rosie O'Donnell, will be a hot topic of conversation.

I still have issues with Katie so I will resist the temptation to change channels to ABC, but CBS might just get a few minutes of my time tomorrow morning.

Octomom – Too Little Too Late?

Nadya Sulemon, eight months behind on her mortgage payments, has finally decided to to pose almost nude to help save her home. No doubt she regrets not taking the initial offer of a cool million from Vivid Entertainment to show off her goods, considering she is taking a tremendous pay cut now, only getting $10K for the topless shots.

Yes, Vivid wanted Nadya to engage in some hardcore porn, but at the time Nadya refused only because she believed her celebrity could get her much more money for far less effort. When the offers never came in, Nadya spent the last year eking out an existence doing interviews and talk shows. Nadya's biggest issue, however, stems from the fact that once she put herself out there and opened her mouth, most lost interest in her quickly.

Nadya spent many interviews giggling uncontrollably, giving insipid and often unintelligible answers to questions, and when presented with actual job offers, complete with childcare arrangements, the Octomom had every excuse in the book why “work” simply wouldn't work for her. It was obvious Nadya was looking for one thing only, a sugar daddy, and when none appeared willing to ingrain themselves in an instant family and then some, Nadya caved and showed off her Octobod at a bargain basement price.

Now I shouldn't scold the woman, she at least made an effort to sell her home, valued at $500K for only  $25K more than it was worth because her children had added some valuable art work to the walls.

The economy really must suck when a poor mother of 14 children can't sell her celebrity hovel or get more than $10,000 for showing off her fun bags.
