Octomom wants her TV show to be nothing like Gosselin gang’s

Octomom Nadya Suleman reportedly wants her reality show to be very “not” like Jon & Kate Plus 8.

Suleman has confirmed she signed a deal for the show: “I did. I signed something,” she said while holding one of her brood and looking pale.

“I feel they [Jon and Kate Gosselin] made a mistake allowing it to be very exploitative in their kids’ lives,” she said, carefully choosing her words as she rocked the baby, who was dressed in pink.

When asked what she meant by “exploitation”, Suleman said she meant the Gosselins’ allowing the camera to be inside their house every day and the children becoming accustomed to the camera crew as part of their life.

Suleman says she wants her show to be more in the style of a documentary, monitoring growth and development. Her ideal is for it to be “more educational” and “intellectual,” focusing on the effects of prematurity - even though she carried her eight babies to full term. She said she wanted the film to cover autism and to be “not so superficial”.

Suleman recently had uterine surgery and has an iron deficiency but said her babies were all strong and healthy despite what sceptics have said.

“They’re all strong, they’re like singletons,” she said. The babies were now weighing in at five to six kilograms, she said.

When asked about Mel Gibson’s dubbing himself OctoMel, Suleman said she had not heard about the incident. “He was just being funny,” she said. “He’s rich he can have eight or 80 if he wanted.”
