She built a rehearsal space in the basement of her $1.2 million Pennsylvania home.
"I do a little practice for them at night," she says of her kids. "Maddie was like, 'I'll only watch you if you don't scream this time!'" (Us Weekly once reported that Maddie snapped at her mom, "Mommy, you are mean!" after she yelled at her daughter for splashing her near a pool.)

Gosselin wants fans to vote for her even if they "hate" her.
"But I hope that people see in me that I'm a mom like everyone else, just working to provide for my kids — I mean if you have to work, isn't this so fun?" she says.
