Jon Gosselin as Magic Mike?

[GreyhoundFan]

Jon is doing a one night stint as Magic Mike in Atlantic City. The first reaction I had was YIKES.

Quote

You’ve seen Jon Gosselin minus Kate — now see him minus his clothes!

The 39-year-old former reality star — who rose to fame on Jon and Kate Plus 8,  the TBS series which about his then-wife and their eight children — is joining the dancers at Caesars Atlantic City’s Untamed Male Revue for a one-night-only event on April 1.

Owner Eric Millstein confirmed Gosselin’s gig at the New Jersey hotel and casino’s Dusk Nightclub to PEOPLE, saying “it is R-rated, not X-rated.”

The performance will feature choreography from an ex-Vegas showgirl with costumes, he explains.

“Jon has been rehearsing every every week,” Millstein says, adding that the club plans to feature different celebrities in the future.

Untamed Male Revue describes itself as “Vegas style performance featuring the best male dancers in Atlantic City.” Mellstein compares the show to numbers seen in the 2012 film Magic Mike and in the popular Australian export Thunder from Down Under.

“It’s not cheesy or sleazy,” he says, emphasizing that the evening’s emcees are all women.

Gosselin’s gig is on April 1 — his 40th birthday.

Here is the picture that was included in the article:

Well, it IS on April 1st... so fools beware....

Pretty sure most of America has other plans.... ANY plans....anything at all....

[Peabody Holmes Raptorsen]

Nope. Nope. All the nope. Who would seriously pay to go see this in a non-snark capacity? 

[Mela99]

OH my god... Just... oh my god. 

I don't have much sympathy for any of these people but those poor damned kids. They're never going to reconcile with their dad... That's so sad. 

 

[send*the*ferrets]

I cannot stop laughing 

[Mela99]

I can't wait to see Khate lose her shit over this. I'm sure she's got a lot to say

[Cleopatra7]

Well, there's a mental image I could have done without. Based on the picture, it looks like this debacle will be more like Chris Farley in the Chippendale SNL sketch than the real Magic Mike, except played totally straight. Actually, scratch that. I think this will be more like Dustin Diamond's sex tape and the only people in the audience will be a handful if hipsters there to make fun of Jon and be ironic (which I have to assume are the only ones who watched Diamond's sex tape).

The date of this "performance" appears to be April 1... let's hope it just an April Fool's joke...

[FundieFarmer]

Nooooooooooo no no no no no. There but for the grace of God go...everyone.

Dear Rufus. If it wasn't in People magazine I wouldn't believe it. 

[Jane M.]

Jon Gosselin UNTAMED. LOL

No thanks.

[JermajestyDuggar]

I'm so glad he said it would be R rated and not x rated. 

No one needs to see the Gosslin Sausage.

Just the thought of that is enough to need these:

[JMO]

I remember years ago when they were splitting there was a leak from one of the PYTs he dated that the "Gosslin Sausage" was more of a cocktail weiner.  There's a a thought for you.

Here you go: 

[Mela99]

So who lives near Atlantic City? 

[front hugs > duggs]

@Mela99 i'm close enough...but 

 

[BullyJBG]

The one who didn't want to be on camera, and sink back into the normalness of life we all experience? He must be desperate for money.

I am really hoping - for the sake of all involved - that this was an April Fool's joke.

Me, too. I have 0.0 interest in seeing my breakfast again.

Good news: he didn't strip, just danced, apparently as a way to celebrate his 40th. Says his kids knew about it ahead of time.
