CORRECTION: OctoMom Gets $4,000 A Month From Taxpayers


video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player

When TMZ said last month that OctoMom was getting $2,000 a month in food stamps, I couldn't figure out how she could feed a family of 26 (including her multiple personalities) on such little money. Well, I don't have to worry about the OctoKids eating each other's boogers for nourishment while locked in their baby prison, because she said in an interview with Good Morning America that she's actually getting $4,000 to $5,000 a month from California taxpayers. It's good to know that when Octo feeds her child army breakfast by putting out a giant bowl of water in the backyard, she pours Cheerios brand Cheerios in there instead of the generic brand Cheerios that come in a plastic bag. You know which one I'm talking about.

Octo was on GMA to defend herself against those pictures of her Baby House of Terror. Octo's hairstylist, the one she paid $520 for a Brazilian Blowout, ratted a bitch out by giving the pictures to TMZ and the La Habra Police Department. Octo told GMA that she was set up and it's not as bad as it looks.

On her chirruns bonding with nature by going caca in potty training toilets in the backyard, because her indoor plumbing was busted: “She (the hairstylist) thought it was unacceptable that they’re, you know, half-naked, goin’ potty. I mean, moms out there, come on.” (Note: The toilets in her house are fixed now.)

On how she didn't lock her children up in the bedroom. She put the chair there to keep them out: “I didn’t want the kids to go in there at the time and one of my older kids jammed the chair up there so they wouldn’t keep opening and closing the door."

On how she paid $520 to maintain her hair beauty when she's on public assistance and doesn't have a steady job: Octo says the $520 included a Brazilian Blowout and haircuts for the entire family. "I am making money, though. I have jobs and can afford it."

On how she's getting $4,000 to $5,000 a month in food stamps: "It’s almost over. This is our last month on help."

Why do her 15 thousand kids need haircuts, anyway? Suze Orman needs to nail this bitch with another clue. You don't need to pay someone to cut your kid's hair when you can do it yourself. Kids can have jacked up hair, they're kids! Growing up middle class, my mom could afford to take us to MasterCuts, but when she didn't feel like it she took us to the backyard and cut our mops herself. All you need is a pair of scissors, two semi-working hands and the ability to hold in a laugh when your kid ends up with a haircut from the HERP DERP look book. My sister's hair couldn't look more fucked up if she cut it herself in the garbage disposal. It had layers, alright, and each layer was more messed up than the next. It was the 80s, though, so we just looked New Wave. See, Octo's kids can bring back New Wave glamour!

And as for Octo, bitch's hair looks fine and it doesn't need a blow job from Brazil. What Octo needs to do is go out into nature, lay down on the dirt and wait until some stupid birds mistake those bushy brows for hairy caterpillars. Let their beaks fix her eyebrow situation, because it needs fixing bad.

This trick makes me so ill! She has been living off California's teat the ENTIRE time! We (I live in CA)paid for her fertility treatments, her hospital care (medical), and STILL pay for her! She is a beast who knows how to work the system.

By the way, I couldn't get Medical when I was pregnant with my twins. I was married and had a part-time job. I worked with a chick who was NOT married having her THIRD kid and getting Medical. She was living with her boyfriend too.

Lucky for me my college demanded I get healthcare. We penalize people for trying to help themselves and reward people for milking the system. I just want to know WHY?

PinkyGirl's picture

Wait, she's excusing the $520 check for hair because "she has jobs and can afford it" but turned down getting her toilets fixed because it was too expensive?? ($150)

Um, that doesn't make sense.

Spaz it is society's responsibility - unless you really think that American society has no responsibility for the welfare of the nation's children. If you knew a child was going hungry, or was being abused, or was sick and not getting treated, you would feel a responsibility to help, no? Well these kids would suffer if she was denied welfare. You can't punish her financially without punishing the kids more - and they are blameless.

In any case, if she's getting $4,000 a month for 15 children that $266 for each child. That works out as the princely sum of $8 a day per child! That's the price of, what, one beer in a hotel? It's less than the cost of a Starbucks coffee plus sandwich. Hardly a fortune.

And if this case really does get under your skin, it'd make more sense to get angry at the doctor. She didn't get herself pregnant - he performed the procedure for money, even though he must have known she has mental health issues and was without the means to support the babies he was implanting for $$$ (and his own fame).

but the fact is that she has 14 little ones and it is the public's responsibility to take care of all of our children, like it or not.

----
I disagree. If I accidentally got pregnant with one baby, it would NOT be the public's responsibility to take care of it. This woman didn't accidentally have a litter of 8 - she went to a doctor to make it happen, so she could be famous. It's HER responsibility.

One of the biggest gripes I have with famewhores is that they accept NO responsibility.

Centaurious's picture

This famewhore freak shouldn't get a dime. All her kids should be taken away from her and if bitch wants a blowout, get a job.
____________________________
GERONIMO!

Yes, her haircare expense better be coming out of her own pocket, and yes, I wish that unnnecessary expense was going to her children, but as a Californian, I don't mind my tax dollars going to feed and clothe her kids. Yes, the bitch is crazy for having 14 children when she probably could only afford to be childless, but the fact is that she has 14 little ones and it is the public's responsibility to take care of all of our children, like it or not. I hate this bitch but I wish the best for her children. May the bitch rot in hell.

LaChaylo's picture

Holy "I asked for the Angie Jo but got the dime store half-melted Cher" plastic surgery hell!

She and the doctor are to blame - Suleman for being a famewhore and the Doctor for being a wacko. Those kids need to be the focus now - they need a proper home which she is not in condition to give. I don't know what the answer is, but it certainly isn't having the kids staying with her. Hell, at least Kunt Gosselin provides her kids with nannies. (I hate that I think Kunt is a better mother.)

It sounds as though it's enough money. Can't the gov appoint some kind of legal conservator to make sure the money actually goes for necessities?

She needs to do some extreme couponing...she just to find room for for 2 skids of macaroni noodles and 600 tooth brushes.

LAXpat's picture

Ferfuck's sake--TLC, just give her the damn reality show already!

It'll get her off of public assistance (at the very least) and she'll be under constant scrutiny (with regards to the kids receiving proper care).

There's laws now regarding money from that kind of reality show being stashed away for the kids in special accounts that Octo won't be able to touch (or is that just in Pennsylvania, or whereverthefuck it is that the Gosselins lived?)

I hate the idea in principle, but at least the kids will be fed, clothed, etc, and Octomom will be *paying* taxes!

If you stood those kids out on the street and let them run towards 10 random people, most of them wouldn't choose OctoMom.

I'm amazed how people blame her for this. Yes she's crazy for wanting another child past 6 but that dr put 8 babies in her. I think he should have to pay the support. They wanted her to select the ones she wanted but who the hell chooses which of their kids to exterminate. She knows she was stupid but where is the side of public that think the dr is a monster? He's more to blame than she is he has a code of ethics that were not followed. It's not like she shot 8 babies into herself with a turkey baster. Jeez

BreakinMe's picture

Fuck this bitch and her obsessive baby hoarding. I just had a second miscarriage since January. It sucks sucks that I can't have one baby and this crazy bitch pops them out without thinking.

Bunny Rabbit's picture

Most of her kids are boys, buy a pair of fucking clippers and give them buzz cuts yourself for free. The girls can grow their hair long and wear it in braids, maybe get a haircut twice a year at a salon that does $8 kids cuts. I don't know why this trick is living in suburban Orange County. Move out to Perris or Bakersfield, bitch, and raise your chirruns on a farm or something.

The problem is too many people are giving her freebies. Brazilian Blowout's CEO is giving her $520 in a grocery card to reimburse her and a series of free haircuts for her and her kids. This is EXACTLY what she wants and unfortunately gets.

Bizzarelife's picture

California is where I currently reside as well. So, NO, I don't want to "leave her alone". She has created a massive problem - and she needs to deal with it.

I am not saying the kids are a "problem". They are innocent in all of this. They need to have a parent that is stable and mature. I do not believe she is either one of those.

What she really needs is therapy and intensive monitoring. She has a serious case of addiction here - some type of addiction to love or a co-dependent issue. I am not a therapist, but even a non-professional could tell she has ISSUES!

Is there any particular reason why she's still breathing?

omg i can't stop laughing

when we were super poor i gave my husband haircuts. now i actually went to beauty school and managed a great clips years ago (don't ask) so you would think i knew how to do this shit. he still walked out of the house looking like a fucking freak. i only attempted to cut my kids hair once and it was a disaster. so i would support her taking her kids to great clips or some shit like that. but $520 to have HER hair done? fuck that. i felt like i was being robbed when i was paying $120 for haircut and a few foils. and if she "has jobs" why is she collecting that much welfare? i find this all so damn ridiculous.

I had the "moe" haircut when I was a child, only with crooked bangs. Don't start thinking I'm ready to forgive for this, either, because I'm not.

Meanwhile, welfare never gives you enough to live on. My bff was on the dole for a while after the asshat she married punched the crap out of her & kicked her out of the house with their daughter. I feel there should be welfare for emergencies - with a time limit. The only 2 family members my bff could've gone to were married to men who had molested her as a child, and my bff had a daughter. Sometimes really shitty stuff happens. But she also got WIC, which gave her 5 gallons of milk a week, plus juice and cereal, etc. & she also got food stamps. But they don't give you enough to actually make it through one whole month (except that you'd have about 15 gallons of milk in the fridge). My partner and I struggle along on $4,000 a month, so ... part of me feels for Octo ... but then a larger part of me is hoping she gets kicked to the curb by the state of CA. Nah, who am I kidding - I hope she totally gets kicked to the curb by the state of CA.

Hair cuttery =$15

shandi's picture

$520 for 15 haircuts and Brazilian blowout is still too much money. And Octo, if you are on welfare, you CANNOT afford it. There should be no Brazilian blowouts and you should be cutting your own damn hair and your kids' hair. If she can't do that, then she can get $10 haircuts for all of them. Final price $150. This chick is delusional. Did you see how she kept putting up her hand in a 'stop' motion to the interviewer?

Yolie, maybe the Blowouts will pickle her brain and this stupidity will end - just toss her into a state run "facility" since she loves to live off the state so badly.

I am widowed, with a completely physically and mentally disabled son. We do get disability ($600 monthly) and 90% on his meds, but that is IT. I work at home and pay my bills. This bitch makes me sick, and the government makes me sicker for allowing it. And Dr. Drew must be getting something out of this, BTW??????

In Cali, they are pretty strict about going after the dads money unless you have him "unknown" on birth records, and she had invitro so the donors are unknown correct? I don't know how that works.

They should make the Doctor pay for this.

---She knew the donor. She *obtained* fresh sperm from him regularly. She just refuses to say who he is, because he's married and because he would have to pay up. I very much doubt he knew to the extent she was hoarding his jizz then later paddling around in it while taking fertility meds and procedures though.

The doctor has been proven negligent. Beats me why she doesn't sue. She'd win. Then she could pay back the people of California AND feed her kids.

But the courts might want to know who the father is, and that's why she sits her kids in squalor. She's protecting him and their dirty goings on.

Taxpayer money and being left to her own crazy is how she got 14 kids into this mess. And not to forget her "Bill Clinton" celebacy - she's sucked more dick than her kids have had shits. Donor schmoner.

Also not to forget the multiple dozens of embryos she's destroyed in her follies.

And she's not even infertile as she spruiks she is. I've seen her workers insurance (publicly released) reports which clearly shows her infertility is BULLSHIT.

Goddamn it you can buy hair cutting scissors at CVS for about $12. It is not difficult to cut kids's hair. I do it and it comes out great. If my hair was long enough to cut myself, I would.
