Jon Gosselin: Slapped With $1 MILLION Judgment By Former Employer!

Jon Gosselin was just served with a staggering $1 million judgment after he failed to respond to a lawsuit against him by a company he used to work for. Here’s hoping Kate Gosselin is feeling generous when he calls to tell her he can’t afford anything for the kids … that is if his phone is even still in service. After being fired from Jon and Kate Plus 8, and divorcing his then reverse-mulleted wife, Jon went on to procure and lose a number of working class jobs. One of which was with Securus, a company that sells electronic payment processing systems to merchants (it attaches to iPhones to accept credit cards). In his position as sales manager, Jon was supposed to be traveling around convincing businesses to use product. Securus says he did quite the opposite. According to the company, Jon was shrewdly (or not so shrewdly) telling merchants to abandon the company in favor of a competitor he was working for. Securus sued Jon Gosselin , and he didn’t respond to the lawsuit, at which point a judge entered a default judgment against him – for over $1 million. BOTTOM LINE: If someone pays you to sell their product, don’t cut side deals with a competitor to help them sabotage at product, then get caught. BOTTOM LINE #2: If someone sues you over such a move, it’s probably worth your while to retain counsel and not flat out ignore the legal action. A million dollars may not be a financial death knell for many celebrities, but in Jon’s case, it about a million more than he has to his name at this point. No word on how Securus plans on collecting here. They had better be hoping his new DJ career (we could not make up such a thing) takes off quickly. 23 Biggest Douchebags on Reality TV 1. Jon Gosselin View Photo Jon Gosselin is one of the most frequent results if you run a Google image search on “reality TV douchebag.” True story. 2. Jax Taylor View Photo Vanderpump Rules’ Jax Taylor is perhaps the biggest d-bag on reality TV. It’s a bold statement, but he continues to lower the bar on a weekly basis. 3. Spencer Pratt View Photo Spencer Pratt is, in a sense, the man all fame-grubbing reality TV douchebags of today are measured against. A trailblazing antagonist on The Hills, Pratt redefined the role of reality TV villain, eventually wearing out his welcome and blowing through $10 million with his constant scheming and publicity whoring before exiling himself to his parents’ guest house with wife Heidi Montag. 4. The Situation View Photo Mike Sorrentino, a.k.a. The Situation from Jersey Shore, may be as full of himself as any man who has ever lived. So important was Sitch, in the mind of Sitch, that his nickname had a nickname and everything he did had to be an acronym or catch phrase. Many of which were hilarious, granted. But still … total douche. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 5. Adam Lind View Photo Adam Lind of Teen Mom 2 is basically a terrible boyfriend, father, and human being in general who has tormented Chelsea Houska (and viewers) from the get-go on the MTV reality staple. 6. Dean McDermott View Photo Dean McDermott has really entered the upper echelon of this category since his cheating ways have been exposed and recounted ad nauseam on True Tori. 7. Juan Pablo Galavis View Photo Definitely the biggest douche ever to be named The Bachelor, and one of the biggest in all of reality TV history. 8. Tom Sandoval View Photo Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules is an epic d-bag. He and Jax Taylor could win any two-man douche competition in existence. Fortunately no such thing exists … yet. That would make a good show, Bravo. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 9. Adam Levine View Photo There’s a lot to like about Adam Levine, honestly. It’s just that after five hours a week on TV and every freaking second on the radio, you start to focus more on the d-bag qualities just beneath (or on) the surface. 10. Scott Disick View Photo We thoroughly enjoy Scott Disick’s comic relief on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons, and Kourtney’s far from perfect herself, but Lord D. exhibits some major d-bag qualities from time to time. 11. Ryan Lochte View Photo One word says it all: JEAH. 12. Slade Smiley View Photo He mellowed out slightly in later seasons, and showed some signs of personal growth, but there was no one douchier than Slade Smiley during his early tenure on The Real Housewives of Orange County. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 13. Guy Fieri View Photo Come on. Just look at the man. 14. Jesse James View Photo Nothing Jesse James did on Monster Garage was that bad, but off the set, he cheated on America’s Sweetheart Sandra Bullock (and later Kat Von D) numerous times and has posed for several Nazi-themed photos. Good riddance. 15. Kris Jenner View Photo Most people considered d-bags are male, but when you are universally disliked, obnoxious, full of yourself and synonymous with “Momager,” well, you’re in the club, Kris Jenner. 16. Donald Trump View Photo Donald Trump of The Apprentice fame is pretty much the personification of the term. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 17. Hank Baskett View Photo Hank Baskett never struck us as a douchebag, but as the new season of Kendra on Top has taught us, the dude has easily crossed that threshold. 18. Apollo Nida View Photo Apollo Nida is such a douche that society decided he needed to be locked up for eight years to think about his douchey actions. Phaedra Parks’ ex is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence for fraud, but we like to think the judge threw the book at him for 4 million counts of being a D-bag. 19. Teresa Giudice View Photo Teresa is another real-life villainess who proves that you don’t need to be a man to be both a douche bag AND a felon. Teresa was despised by fans and castmates alike long before she was convicted of fraud, and soon she’ll have the pleasure of working her charm on a group of gals who know how to make shivs out of toothbrushes. That should end well! 20. John Rocker View Photo John Rocker was the pitcher fans loved to hate during his stint as a major league baseball player. Now that he’s a contestant on the 29th season of Survivor, a whole generation is getting a taste of Rocker’s douchey way. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 21. Simon Cowell View Photo We’ve saved the original reality douche bag for last. Simon is the ultimate D-bag, not because he crushed so many dreams during his eight seasons as a judge on American, but because he seemed to take so much pleasure in it. 22. Patti Stanger View Photo Patti Stanger, the Millionaire Matchmaker, sets up rich d-bags on dates for a living, yet none of the relationships actually work and her entire show seems more like a vanity project for her massive ego, so she makes the list. 23. The Rich Kids of Beverly Hills (Collectively) View Photo The Rich Kids of Beverly Hills (sorry, #RichKids of Beverly Hills) is a show basically created around the fact that they are all douchebags. So take your pick of the crew. The End. Did you like 23 Biggest Douchebags on Reality TV? If so, please share: Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter Email a Friend Pin on Pinterest Want more?
