--Jon Gosselin is facing criticism from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission for allowing his 5-year-old sextuplets to ride with him on his ATV. The CPSC says the dad of eight isn't putting safety first when it comes to riding with more than one person on the vehicle at once. [Perez Hilton]

--Hot double bill: Rihanna hopped on stage with "Run This Town" duet partner Jay-Z at the rapper's Sunday night show in L.A. As an extra surprise, the 21-year-old songstress debuted a new single, "Hard." [OMG]

--Kevin Federline kept it all in the family Sunday when he took all four of his children -- and girlfriend Victoria Prince! -- to a showing of the Jim Carrey's A Christmas Carol. [Celebrity Baby Scoop]

--How did Office star John Krasinski propose to his Devil Wears Prada girlfriend Emily Blunt? Forget skywriting or a costumed character. He kept it old-fashioned and intimate. 'It's funny, everybody asks me, 'Did you get on your knee?' And I'm like, 'That's what you do, right?'" [The Frisky]

--A block-long billboard featuring a sweaty, lingerie-clad Eva Mendes is drawing mixed reviews from neighbors in New York City's SoHo area. "As much as I love advertising, it's gonna cause an accident," one resident told local news station WPIX. "It's just right over the top." [PopEater]

    Kate- stop spreading your legs...

    Give him a break! The kids seem like they are having fun. And he seems like a fit dad to be giving them rides.

    He has been on camera which shows that he is driving around on the property with the kids on it. He has also stated the kids enjoy the rides. He is the adult and needs to safe guard their lives.

    The ATV in the pix is obviously NOT MOVING! Where was all the outrage when Kate was speeding in an ATV on uneven terrain with the three boys and allowing one of them to steer? Talk about double standards!

    If they were in Texas it would be no problem....stop being so sensitive and get over it!

    Excerpts from a story from CBS (June 12, 2005) titled â??ATVâ??s Too Dangerous for Kidsâ?? says: Thousands of people are h=urt riding ATVs each year, including many children, who are inj-ured or kil-ledâ?¦ Every year, tens of thousands of children are sent to the emerg=ency room with serious and often debil=itating inj=uries from ATV accid=ents. At the Children's Ho=spital of Pittsburgh, tr-auma surgeons treat as many as two vict=ims a week, some as young as 3 years old. Here's what you can do to keep your kids safe on ATVs. Make sure they are riding the right size ATV. Have your child take a training course. Make sure they wear a helmet. They should wear prot=ective gear - like boots, gloves and googles. And always supervise your children while they are riding. La-ws vary from state to state when it comes to riding on public land, but the ATV Safety Institute says, no one younger than 6 years old should be on an ATV. Donâ??t carry a passenger.

    youtube. com/watch?v=wLKVynr3HUY J . Kate did the same thing. She was even SPEEDING and allowing the kids to steer. Kids would have DIED if the ATV had rolled over. What an IDIOT.

    GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kate did the SAME thing when she went to the DUDE RANCH IN WYOMING. She had the kids on the ATV with her riding too....this is absurd. People need ot get off of this man's back. He is a person who makes mistakes just like you and I. I am a wife and a mother and I understand why he left his wife, SHE IS EVIL!!!!

    I hate you Good daddy,so suck yours

    Type your comment here JON has continually complained of having to take care of his children while his wife was out making a living. He made it clear he didn't want to babysit his own kids. all of a sudden now he has had a change of heart? I don't think so. He is going to miss a lot out of life and I am so sorry for him and his children.

  • November 10, 2009 - 10:41am crazytears

    i think jane should leave john forever but with all her kids

  • November 10, 2009 - 9:31am ang

    Who cares? If he would have rode the ATV and let the kids stand by and watch he'd be under fire for that too. He's just playing with his kids and as long as he wasnt jumping dirt hills with them, whats the big deal?!

  • November 10, 2009 - 9:10am JJ

    jon could give one of them a piggy back ride and people would say that he's putting his child in danger.

  • November 10, 2009 - 9:03am Good Dad

    HAHA all I see is a dada playing with his kids, not spanking them

  • November 10, 2009 - 8:26am Nicolette in VA

    ATVs are dangerous. My cousin was killed in an ATV accident 2 years ago. He should have had helments on the kids. It's okay to ride them as long as you're not speeding and you're wearing helments. The driver should be over 16 and have a license, too.

    My understanding the old zombies of kate on RADAR has nothing else to do but bash a man & report like a bunch of 3rd graders but they are going back to their youth year b/c they are old ,fat and think most of them are FUNNY GALS..(WINK)

  • November 10, 2009 - 7:22am stella2010

    JON tell every one to kiss your buttocks..People KATE walks on water she never does anything wrong...

  • November 10, 2009 - 6:56am Linds

    who cares!!!!! I take my 3 yr old on our ATV all the time... As long as your safe about it..then whatever

  • November 10, 2009 - 6:54am Still Shaking My Head!

    I shall not get in on the discussion about the ATV mess BUT I would like to bring up another point! Jon obviously sets up these little photo ops with his Paps Posse...and no doubt gets paid a nice little fee for it...probably CASH that he pockets (Michale Lohan explained how that works!). Anyway, wonder HOW MUCH of this photo fee money goes into the kids bank accounts! I would bet NOTHING! It is all to support Jon's swinging lifestyle! Talk about a HYPOCRITE! Wonder if TLC will have Jon's Paps Posse served and get them under oath on how they pay Jon for all this access...you know, follow the money trail! He is not interested in being a Father! It is all a game with him about the next opportunity to line HIS pockets!

    You can't be serious.... Kate did the SAME THING. LOL I guess you guys missed the episode where Kate takes the 3 boys to Dude Ranch where Kate takes them all on a high speed ATV ride? youtube. com/watch?v=wLKVynr3HUY Jon is just taking pics of the kids on the ATV. It isn't MOVING at all. Take a look at the youtbe clip of Kate going FULL speed with the kids. What a IDIOT. She even allowed the Tups to street the thing while she smashed on the gas.
