After famously telling Life & Style magazine that she would “absolutely not” do a reality TV show about her life or the lives of her children, Nadya Octomom Suleman confirms to L&S that she has signed on to do a TV show after all. Suleman makes a point to clarify that her TV show will not be a reality TV show but, instead, a sort of documentary that will follow her children’s lives up until the age of 18. But really, aren’t documentaries (at the heart of it all) really just fancy reality TV shows?
After weeks of speculation, Nadya Suleman confirms to Life & Style exclusively that she will be doing a television show with her 14 children! “Yes, it is official. I’m going to be doing a show, but it’s not a reality show,” Nadya tells Life & Style. “What I’m doing with this TV show is basically creating documentaries about the lives of my children. It’s going to be an ongoing thing, and it will follow them from now until they are 18. It’s being done by Eyeworks; they’re in the UK. It will air in the UK and then we’ll see if the US is interested.” Nadya adds that the documentary style of the show won’t infringe on her family’s privacy: “The producers will come here to film six times a year. They’ll come by and take some footage and then they’ll go. They won’t be invading my life or my children’s lives.” Plus, the filming will help this busy mom remember the important milestones for her children. “It will give me the opportunity to have incredible home movies that, believe me, I don’t have the time to make myself. Having this documentary crew allows me to focus on raising my children and still have great movies of them.”
You gotta hand it to the lady, she does know how to work things out in the manner that best benefits her. By signing on for this TV deal, she can say that she is not doing a reality TV show and still get her reality-like TV show. Additionally, she gets a professional production company to film her crazy life for her … footage that will, no doubt, be sold every place possible so as to maximize her monetary gain. It’s almost as if she’s squeezing her babies for every penny she can get. Now that the 8th baby has been released from the hospital and is in her care, there’s no reason why production of her new show can’t get underway immediately. I weep for those poor babies.

I think the networks need to stop making shows like jon and kate plus 8, the duggers, and table for 12. It obviously is sending a message to these people like nadya that if she did that she could make some money at it. She is counting on the anger “blowing over” eventually and then she can cash in. These shows are encouraging these dumbasses to have these multiple kids.
[...] Octo-mom’s a liar. And a reality TV whore. [...]
to sushaf – “america is the only industrialised country”
what a load of bullshit
Somewhere the name “Eyeworks TV” was mentioned. They do shows all over the world, so even tho this twit’s show is being done in the UK – you can still make your voice heard. Of course, there’s always the chance that “Eyeworks” is just another fantasy of hers.
To Sushshaf – and all Octo-idiot supporters – there are nearly 7 billion people living on this planet – statistics say there will nearly 10 billion by the year 2020. We owe future generations better than being beseiged by generation after generation of spawns of Octomoron…probably 50% or more with disabilities.
Sushshaf – one more thing. You seem like a big-hearted generous person. Anyone in your neck of the woods who needs help that you would be willing to do a load of laundry for? Or are you simply all about Octotwit?
Some ppl should be fixed
I think this woman is dishonest she had these kids for her own selfish gain period,there’s no doubt in my mind!! All we can do is sit back and wait and see what happens and pray for these precious kids!!
Eyeworks is a Dutch company and they have confirmed they are in talks about this show.
I do not agree that people outside America all think it is normal for her to have IVF and 14 kids while no job. I don’t know anyone that thinks she’s normal.
I sent them an email letting them know my disgust that they are actually going film her and her kids. It is awful!

I love watching John and Kate plus 8 but this woman is…. I mean obviously something is wrong with her… and I think it’s a shame to promote such a crazy woman in TV
and sushshaf – believe me, people in other countries also think that something is just WROOOONG with her
i refuse to give Jon and Kate any airtime and i am certainly not going to be giving any to this nutbag.
I will not watch this show. I refuse to give this woman a minute of my time. I feel bad for her children, and I can only hope that when they leave home and are out on their own that they are able to be normal, sensible individuals.
god, until their 18? that’s the most ridiculous thing i’ve ever heard. i feel so awful for the children.
franki: i regularly helped my sister with her laundry for a family of 4 kids and 2 adults. she was washing every day and going to work. by the end of the week she was spent.
megs: america is the only industrialised country without nationalised medicine. it was one of the obama promises to rectify this and bring america into line with what other industrialised countries give their citizens. it shouldn’t be that people are bankrupted due to medical costs as often happens in usa.
morgenne: for the record i am an american citizen (dual australian). the taxes that you say you pay are negligent. australian taxes are much higher. as a dual citizen i am liable to pay double taxes. the issue however is that the australian taxes are so high that the american taxes don’t kick in. for paying higher taxes the citizens get nationalised medicine. i am not sure but i think in most instances the countries are set up the same with regard to most social benefits. oh, except unemployment and sickness benefits. you do not have to pay in to get out. it is more like welfare from the start. when you retire you do not get a payment until you die related to how much you pay in. they have introduced manditory superannuation which is through private companies. what you get back depends on what you put in. if you were so unlucky/dumb not to save any thing via superannuation then you would get a pension from the government. it isn’t a grand amount and it is means tested.
there are families in australia that have large families and get “help” from the government. people complain here too. the government tweaks the system. the point is to help these families so that they do not become desperate. from desperation comes crime. i personally know of some turkish families that came and had 14 kids and then their kids go to school and marry and have maybe 3-4 kids. the kids from these large families are no different to the kids from smaller families. i do not think it is a forgone conclusion that nadya’s are doomed cause she is their mother.
What a dumb, penny weaseling, money grabbing, kid exploiting whore.
