Hailey Glassman and Jon Gosselin made up the abuse allegations for national TV. Can you believe it? Sources are now claiming the whole story was cooked up in an effort to draw ratings so the payday was higher for Jon and Hailey. Why else would she remain with a man that was verbally abusive?

More pictures of Jon after the leap…

And that abuse allegation led into the PR stunt with the rabbi, where people were charged $20 a pop to get in. Do you think Jon and the Rabbi were hoping for a better turnout? Oh yeah. From Fox News:

“Jon actually made the decision to have Hailey go on air and bad mouth him,” says the insider. “Jon and Hailey get paid for their appearances on these shows and they need the money. It was easy for Hailey to conjure tears, their lives are less than stellar right now, but Jon hasn’t abused [her].They agreed to have her go on and make the abuse allegations!” our shocked source says. “Jon doesn’t have much money left and he is not currently searching for a real job. Jon still seeks money through his fame and notoriety. He really wants a reality show of his own, and he is stretching out every moment of the drama for a dollar.”"

I think I’ve heard it all now. Jon always manages to surprise me, however, with the stuff only dirt bags can think of. Why did Kate marry him in the first place?
