    Kristen Johnston Tells the Tale of Her Fight with ‘Octomom’

    I've always enjoyed Kristen Johnston, from her guest role in a very funny "New Adventures of Old Christine" to her supporting part as Drew Barrymore's character's sister in "Music and Lyrics." (What's this you say? She played a lead in "3rd Rock from the Sun"? I'm not familiar. OKAY, I am familiar, but if you haven't got anything nice to say, et cetera.) And my opinion of Johnston only SKYROCKETED this summer when a story came out about her getting into a scrap, on a plane, with Nadya "Octomom" Suleman over Suleman's inability to control her children on a cross-country flight. On last night's "Watch What Happens Live," Johnston took a viewer question about the incident, and though she downplays the whole flap, her physical impression of Suleman is pretty great.

      "OKAY, I am familiar, but if you haven't got anything nice to say, et cetera..." She hasn't got anything nice to say about '3rd Rock'? That show was awesome.

      She actually has 14 kids...were they all on the plane? Maybe some of the older ones could help their mom out with the octuplets...maybe they can charter a flight instead of bothering everybody next time
      • Emilyrose2005 5 months ago
        2 of the older ones are "Challenged", so probably are in need of a caretaker themselves.
        Suleman is a mess...

        Plus she's apparently on wellfare. so she's "poor" hmmm you can afford a plane ticket but you can't support the kids you decided to have as a single mom. Maybe she was hoping people would mistake her for Angelina Jolie with all those kids and give her stuff for free.

      Kristen Johnston is hilarious...this is a funny clip...
    • Jeanne  •  5 months ago
      I love Kristen Johnson even more now. I'm not surprised she was the only one with the balls to say something to that octomom.
    • Sherry  •  5 months ago
      for reasons I don't understand, individuals get away with poor behavior on flights and no one seems to care. At what point does the flight crew stand up and say ENOUGH! kids (animals) run the aisle screaming and laughing and the parents sit talking or having more to drink. Am I unreasonable? It makes what can be called a stressful situation worse.
      • Ghost 5 months ago
        Hell no, you aren't unreasonable. Parents need to keep their unruly brats under control simply because the rest of us shouldn't have to be burdened with them.

      famous for what, having innocents that she really can't afford or take the time to discipline. Octomom is just as money hungry as the kartrashians, albeit she does need the cash.
      • Kasey 5 months ago
        Wonder who paid for the airline tickets so she could take her little brats somewhere...
      • Trac 5 months ago
        aww don't take it out on those kids, it's bad enough they have to call her mom, don't call them names.
    • brain eater  •  5 months ago
      octomom should be laid to rest already, creepy old #$%$ bag
    • TBear  •  5 months ago
      The part that wasnt said was that the Today Show provided the airfare for her and the kids to make an appearance on their morning broadcast. It was on the return flight that all of this took place. While I dont agree with the amt of kids she has had- she has them and that cant change but I can attest taht I have flown many times on airplanes next to people who were well worse off than any kid. Smelly people, drunk people, demanding people, pompas people, snoring people and yes, nasty gassy people.

      "You Rock Lieutenant " Sally Solomom I love you !
    • J.T.  •  5 months ago
      Kristen, you should have informed that stewardess that YOU are also, famous, LOL!

      But, really, why are we surprised at such behavior by the OctoMommy? She has already proven how pathetic, self-centered, and irresponsible she is. Just like so many other parents these days who think nothing of letting their kids go wild at restaurants and theaters.

      Where did she get the money for 15 plane tickets ?
