KATE GOSSELIN has a new gig…renting her “famous” presence out to an international cruise liner to hype-up passengers eager to spend their summer cruise with her.

The former reality starlet and mother of eight, whose show “Kate Plus 8″ was cancelled by TLC late last year, found work outside of showbiz as a contributing blogger for CouponCabin. Now, it looks like her recently derailed Hollywood ambitions are inching their way towards their current path with her new Royal Caribbean’s Allure Of The Seas’ “Set Sail With Kate” job…

For the pleasure of enjoying the cruise with Kate, passengers are expected to shell out between $1,900 and $3.175 per person for double occupancy. Not only will they get to meet Kate at a “welcome cocktail party” and attend a Q & A session with her, they’ll also get the opportunity to have a photo op, and even “learn a new craft from the professional herself.”

Not bad for a reality TV has-been.

And how much does Kate stand to make for her eight-day stint aboard Royal Caribbean’s Allure Of The Seas which starts and ends in Ft. Lauderdale, with stops in Jamaica, Cozumel and Haiti?

She’ll get a flat fee for every passenger who signs up for the cruise, of course.

So will retirees, honeymooners, and the curious bite at the bait that’s Kate?

The cruise is set for August 2012, so we guess that’s a lot of time for Kate and Royal Caribbean to market that kind of allure…
