Nadya Suleman, the mother of six who just had a litter of children (eight to be exact) is turning out to be WAY crazier than we all thought. Her PR folks tried to convince the public that once we knew the "real" Nadya we'd all fall in love with her.

Yeah, well my heart's feeling something, but I don't think it's love.

Suleman's eagerly anticipated interview with Ann Curry aired last night on NBC and apparently what we've learned about Nadya that we didn't know before is SHE'S NUTS. She also lies and comes off as exceptionally selfish. We've also learned that 3 of her other six children have developmental issues, one has ADHD, one has autism and one has an disclosed developmental problem. Nadya also claims she isn't obsessed with Angelina Jolie and did NOT have any kind of "work" done on her face to look more like the superstar also obsessed with children. Unfortunately for Nadya, there's this thing called the internet and pictures don't lie.

Here's some transcript of the interview:

On why Nadya thinks she a good mother:

“I'm providing myself to my children. I'm loving them unconditionally, accepting them unconditionally." Everything I do, I'll stop my life for them and be present with them. And hold them. And be with them. And how many parents do that? I'm sure there are many that do, but many don't. And that's unfortunate. That is selfish.”

Dr. Nancy Snyderman, NBC's chief medical editor disagrees and said just by virtue of having so many children she's put her babies at risk:

Suleman said she was fully aware of the risks of carrying eight fetuses. “Those are my children, and that’s what was available,” she said. “It’s a gamble.”

In a separate segment, NBC’s chief medical editor, Dr. Nancy Snyderman, said the gamble didn’t end with the live births of all eight babies.

“That risk is not only to mom — her uterus can rupture and she can die — there’s a phenomenal risk to eight babies. Eight babies, by definition, cannot be born normal weight and robust,”
