Tonight's DWTS appearance by Bristol. Updated to include Bristol's second dance.
She looks almost completely different than she did this morning on Ellen.
Are there any ladies here who want to weigh in on the possible deleterious effects being bound up that tight might have on a fetus?
Update: Because you requested it, here is the second dance of the competition.

"screwed" - Bristol Palin, ABC, DWTS, Nov. 8, 2010
ReplyDeleteUgh, so, that was dancing? Step, step, swivel your hips a little, step step, put your leg up on your partner's, rub your face to his lovingly, finish with him hefting her girth on his shoulder. He must have ab strength Stupid Sarah could only dream of having and back strength you wouldn't believe.
ReplyDeleteShe still looks broad across the middle to me. I keep saying that if she's not pregnant, she might want to get looked at for fibroids. How sad and sick to not have family give a damn about you enough to notice you probably need medical attention.
She has improved greatly, but Mark is still carrying the majority of the energy and the moves. I'm sure the judges gushed. I don't watch anymore.
ReplyDeleteHmmm... That was a TANGO???
ReplyDeleteThat was walking on a dance floor, with some sexy moves on HIS part, but mostly out-of-step steps on her part.
Interesting that he would actually lift her for the first time, and have her bend over backwards like she did. Would be quite risky for a pregnant woman, IMHO! (Another 'fundie-abortion' being wished for?)
Okay, so we now know she can walk, and she can let herself be twirled around. Is that dancing?
ReplyDeletedid Mark shave his head since the Ellen show today?
ReplyDeleteConsidering the brief time she probably wears the garment, my guess would be no effect at all. You would have to have a lot of constant constriction to have a significant effect.
ReplyDeleteMy God, just bring back Master P already!
ReplyDeletetiming...I'm not convinced tonite was in sequence, shall we say??? She looks totally different and his hair is gone from todays Ellen.
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess that settles it. Girl ain't pregnant. Nor is she expressive. The dancing was fine, but the style of performance is one they're already done. It's the only one BP can handle, that sort of stern face and mechanical moves. Anything else requires self-exploration and spontaneity, and she registers in the minus range on those things. I hope she goes home to live with the wasilla monster and they both stay there. Melly
ReplyDeleteOMG,they just danced their second dance and it was HORRIBLE. If that pregnant elephant doesn't get voted off tomorrow night, ABC DWTS needs to be boycotted.
ReplyDeleteHe is going to hurt himself lifting that much weight...
ReplyDeleteEllen was taped last week. She's not live.
ReplyDeleteI realy hope that Mark did not hurt himself. After hefty the pregnant cow in the air, it took hime some time to recover enough to look at the camera.
ReplyDeleteAnd then SHE stands there cuping her hands UNDER the belly! Only drew attention to it.
I can't get on line to vote, so i MUST ENCOURAGE EVERYONE ELSE TO vote FOR YOUR FAVORITE PREFORMED...or the best dance.
You know, after the black dress appearance I was starting to doubt my suspicions about her being pregnant. After this orange dress number, I am back to my original thought.
ReplyDeleteI still think she is probably pregnant. She may have lost a little weight this week which accounts for some of the slimmer appearance. I do think the torso corset or whatever they had her in for the black sheath dress was probably intensely tight.
The orange dress was more revealing. Her middle looked thick, they used diagonal lines, sequins, fringe - all to confuse the eye.
The rehearsal footage before the number was fairly incriminating. She just looks so round, and all in the belly area. It's not normal for someone of her age, her fitness level, and also for one who is getting as much exercise as she is getting.
So is Mark in surgery as we speak for his double hernias?
ReplyDeleteThat must be what the tea party calls "dancing." I mean really she is vertical and essentially moving under her own power...most of the time...so it must be dancing!
ReplyDeleteAnd the Grizzeled One told her to to get tough....something SHe knws all about. Ball crusher!
Bristol Palin and Mark Ballas Dancing with the Stars week 8 Argentine Tango
ReplyDeleteI am in the school that doesn't think she is pregnant. But she did lose weight since the Ellen Show. Was that filmed a few days ago? The Tea Bag Party call her act magical, it could be more spandex than magic. The right camera lens can do wonders to make a person seem more statuesque than they actually are. If she was bloated from a procedure of some sort when she did Ellen, that may have gone away by the time they filmed the dance.
I heard she flew back to Alaska for a quick something. She says to recharge with Tripp. Her BFF, April Morlock, conviently posted a winter photo of the three of them in winter garb. Tripp looked the age he is now. It appears she was in Wasilla. She could have seen her doctor.
The dance was not good but it was good enough to give the judges excuses to gush over her. The chair bit was lame. Over all it still looks cheesy and like they are trying too hard pretending he lifts her and things like that. The wonders of TV and the gullible.
If this is an eating disorder or other health issue I think that is worse than if she were pregnant. DWTS is irresponsible and criminal either way. Something is bloating her and up and down is a serious sign of doom with eaters. I am not discounting an abortion or medication. Whatever it is it looks serious and those who are keeping her dancing as fast as she can are hideous monsters.
Absolutely horrible second dance with her footwork all screwed up and the "moves" consisting of her signature shoulder shake and finger pointing. Tired, very tired elements. Can't tell about the pregnancy. She looked so pregnant in practice, particulary in the blue short sleeved shirt. But pretty bound up in that dark dress. But very chunky through the middle in the orange thing for the second dance.
ReplyDeleteI love the tango. I have danced the tango and received raves for doing so. Bristol was not doing the tango. She was walking, kicking, standing, and caressing, but she was not dancing a tango.
ReplyDeleteI am a high school drama/musical director. i have taught high school football players with no dance experience and no sense of rhythm to dance the tango better than that during a 4 hour rehearsal on a Saturday. (btw/ none of the kids were paid 100k to do it)
ReplyDeleteSeriously, whoever is teaching B is not doing a very good job. If she were one of my football players, she would have already been cut.
Not even going there with the body size/shape, etc., just talking real talent/ability.
Excuse me, that's not a tango!
ReplyDeleteIt is entirely possible for her to be pregnant and for undergarments to compress things to the point where we see them on this clip but it is not healthy nor wise.
ReplyDeleteI think the lift was intended to suppress speculation, but she is not that far into the pregnancy yet where anything would show. I would like to see stop-action clips because the lift was combined with quick twirls making it difficult to concentrate. Also - I suspect most folks were looking to see if they could see up between her legs rather than what her tummy looked like (sorry, but it's more likely than not).
She doesn't look pregnant tonight I agree. Crazy!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Palinbots aren't doing her any favors by continuing to vote for her. The show is becoming a joke and if she stays , it will be worse. She has no future in show business so why build her up for a big fall. Plus its really unfair to the more talented dancers.
The Palinbots are the strangest group. Rattling on about morals but then screwing over the really good dancers? And supporting Sarah despite mounds of evidence that she's a fraud. So strange.
Where's Mercedes post???
Yet again, Bristol and Mark are LAST in terms of scores:
ReplyDeleteThe first number is the first round, the second number is the second dance, then comes the total:
Kyle and Lacey 27+ 29=56
Jennifer and Derek 27+30=57
Kurt and Anna 24+24=48
Bristol and Mark 24+23=47
Brandy and Maks 29+28=57
Well lets add the color "orange" to the other unflattering colors of dresses Bristol has worn. I keep adjusting my TV pic because she seems to be putting on more weight all over...
ReplyDeleteI sure do wish Mark was better at hiding his facial expressions...really sad...time to say your knee blew out MarK...put an end to our misery.
Hmmm...
ReplyDeleteWondering if the whole growing tummy thing wasn't staged by mama grizzly to boost ratings. Plus I see long term issues between mama and Bristol. Scarah shows up to watch rehearsal n a mini skirt? How presidential! Gotta be the center of attention...cant let Bristol have her moment.
And The more I hear from Sarah...the more I buy into the sexual abuse theory as a kid. "Bristol gonna do a lap dance?" who says that to their kid??? Very disturbing!
The second number she did in the fringie orangie thing revealed the baby bump a lot more - but she's corsetted and spanxed within an inch of her life. She's also lost some weight which means maybe she IS actually exercising a little. She still can't counteract the gain in the tummy though. Pregnancy will do that to ya.
ReplyDeleteShe didn't look pregnant in the first dress, but she sure looked lot more plump in the second dress. She looked plump all over..face,arms, legs, middle...
ReplyDeleteI gotta say people, Bristol is hardly a fat cow. She's packing a few extra pounds but hardly what I would call fat. I think she's a moderately attractive young woman!
ReplyDeleteAs far as her being pregnant. There have certainly been pics which would indicate that possibility but nothing conclusive. Many times it's the angle of the shot because there are other photos in the same sequence where she looks 'normal'. We've been talking about this pregnancy now for well over 2 months and although she looks bigger overall to me she doesnt look 2 months more pregnant that she did 2 months ago.
That said, it would be no surprise at all to me if she was pregnant given her history. The preposition that she might be porking out just doesnt quite wash. She would REALLY have to be porking out constantly because the rehearsals alone would burn enough calories to at least keep her weight stable. She may look like she's just walking but let me tell you that even that short of a dance with kicks, pirouettes and in heels takes some energy to execute and she's burning a lot of energy to do that and the more weight there is to move around the more energy it takes.
As far as binders during pregnancy: I had a co-worker many years ago who recounted her first pregnancy back in the 50's. She grew up in the Appalachians and was married off at age 14. She was still in school but had never had any sex education what to speak of. Her husband was about 20 years older and what she presumed was just rough housing was actually intercourse. She became pregnant immediately but didnt know it. She loved playing basketball and was appalled that she was starting to gain weight and didnt want to be kicked off the team so she wore girdles throughout the entire pregnancy. She carried to term and went in to labor on the toilet. Her mother realized what was happening and took her to the hospital. The girdle (worn almost continuously) caused her uterus to adhere and grow in to her abdominal wall and skeletal structure and she nearly died from hemorrhaging as the placenta started to tear away during the labor. The baby was small but normal but she nearly died.
Clasping your hands together and pulling them in so the fringe and your belly hang over your arms - probably not what the very talented costume designer had in mind, Bristol.
ReplyDeleteAdd stupid to your list of credentials for DWTS.
6:16, wait a minute! i don't venture to the Palin twitter page... are you saying Palin tweeted about her daughter doing a lap dance?????
ReplyDeleteThis comment was in the other thread - but not sure if you noticed that the blue t-shirt was from a Tea PARTY rally!!!! And Todd is wearing a TLC t-shirt. I don't think these wardrobe choices were coincidental.... keep that tea party love going so they'll dial up some votes for Bristol, the teenage abstinence activist who has had three pregnancies before she was even out of her teens!!!! Shameful like everything that family does/says.
ReplyDeleteI read that their appearance on the Ellen Show was taped last Friday, so that might explain Mark's hair. Her belly is what's perplexing to me. She really looked pregnant in the second dance, but not in the first. This is a mystery wrapped in a riddle!
ReplyDeleteDWTS is irresponsible and criminal either way.
ReplyDelete--
Please make this concept go viral. Maybe less starlets will die prematurely and middle school girls wont have body image problems in the future.
I only know I saw this posted on Sept 6, 2010 as a public FaceBook profile picture. I don't know when it was shot. What are the odds that April Morlock would do that without Bristol and Sarah's approval? She may have been told to put that up.
ReplyDeleteWhen was The Ellen DeGeneres Show show taped?
Even wearing my regular jeans early in my pregnancy made me want to barf. If she is pregnant, then I don't know how she can do it and not turn green.
ReplyDeleteWhen in doubt, apply Occam's Razor. I think she just likes donuts. There isn't 40 production people behind the scenes trying to disguise a young woman's pregnancy. She looks nice in the black outfit. Dancing much improved. Good for her in giving this a shot.
ReplyDeleteOh, and her mother is batshit insane.
They speculate about a staged possible pregnancy on other sites, too, as some sort of red herring. I just can't fathom what the Palins would have to gain by such a ruse. It's bad for their daughter's reputation, it would be bad for Sarah's reputation. The idea that they'd go along with something like that to help out the network with ratings is also impossible to believe.
ReplyDeleteI agree that they keep putting her on her back because her tummy does look flat like that and they are making the most of it.
I also agree that Sarah's comments during her segment were creepy X 1000. "Take over and dominate", I think she said? "Is it a lap dance?" Bristol response was just as weird. Todd acted like he was uncomfortable...right.
When you factor in Mark putting his hand on Bristol's thigh/ass like that, I don't think the Palins can pretend Bristol is the modest contestant anymore. They are encouraging their daughter to be provocative just like Mommy Dearest. Sex sells, dontcha know.
Whatever. She is pregnant. Or really fat. But fat can be squished down a lot better than that, unless you are way fatter than Bristol looks.
ReplyDeleteI am still going with pregnant.
Gryph, I hope you're going to post the other dance - the one where she's dressed up like a big old punchbowl (and dances like one).
ReplyDeleteThe Ellen Show appearance was taped last Thursday and aired today (Monday).
ReplyDeleteThere is a story up on the Daily Beast "The GOP Plot to Help Bristol Palin"
http://tinyurl.com/29dayd5
Someone posted this link on an earlier blog. I am copying it over should people have missed it as it is a very interesting picture taken of a rare sideview taken by Kurt Warner. Note: It is dated Oct 19th
http://twitpic.com/2yuxas
On Ellen, they show a picture of Tripp and Ellen says "Wow, he got so big" and asks Bristol how old he is. Bristol responds that he is almost two. Ellen says "Wow, that's amazing". I don't think she buys that he is not even two.
ReplyDeleteI can't make up my mind whether she is pregnant, but she is corseted to an inch of her life in that black dress. It reminds me of the purple military costume she wore in the last tango she did. I still see a bulge at 25 (as she turns) in the video. Also, she really isn't bent over backwards all that much on Mark's shoulder, and notice that he keeps his hands over her stomach the entire life.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally confused -- where are you guys getting these quotes:
ReplyDelete"Take over and dominate", I think she said? "Is it a lap dance?"
I'm tired of 8 weeks in that Mark, the judges, the brainless co-host whatever her name is continue to use the excuse that she's not a dancer, etc., etc., etc. Well As*hats - Lacey's partner isn't a dancer either and he kicked in much earlier with some good dancing.
ReplyDelete8 weeks of show and 3 or 4 weeks or so prior to the show of practice - enough with the flipping excuses. That's 3 months of intense practice which could be considered as a full-time job for the time they get paid to practice as some indicate they've practiced 8 hours a day for days.
ENd of the show....the other dancers are begining to notice the inequality between performace and scoring.
ReplyDeleteBased on the judges scoring, BP and Mark are TEN points behind the others.
That is some serious heavy lifting there, in terms of spanx and Mr. Ballas.
ReplyDeleteBaby belly Watch:
ReplyDeleteIt is geting hard to design a costume to hide that belly! And then Bristol's hand gestures - cupping them under the baby as if to support it only make it more obvious.
Keeping voting Palinbots! Maybe they will name the kid after you!
She can get the legwork in, her legs are the only good looking thing left on her body. Got the pointing to God down pat. His having to heft her body around must give them both night terrors. To be a fly on the wall when the camera's aren't rolling in practice, . . .Bris, we have to put in a few lifts. . .stand in the chair, give everyone heart-attacks while you breach for air and not fall back on your ass while I attempt to twirl you on my shoulders.
ReplyDeleteShe looked trussed up in an old fashioned whale-bone corset and stiff as a board laying back. They pulled it off. Must be the hardest the Pistol's had to work even though Mark had to do the heavy lifting as usual.
In a world where Calamity Sarah became Mayor, Governor and a VP running-mate selection, I guess Bristol can win DWTS. The other dancers must have iron clad non-disclosures to not trash this bullshit in their Twitter, FB and Publicist offices.
Bristol and Mark are 10 points behind the others. If she doesn't get voted off the show tomorrow, it's definitely due to the Palinbots "stuffing the ballot box". Many subtle- and not so subtle- comments by the announcer/emcees about better dancers leaving and Bristol remaining to compete. (heh) Of course, then there was the snarky film clip about missing the family, Sarah and Todd watching the practice- gag.
ReplyDeleteCO almost Native
I think Mark Ballas has a hernia tonight after lifting Beefalo over his head and spinning her around like a TV wrestler. Ouch.
ReplyDeleteToad was in the audience. They showed him at the end of Bristol's dance. Who is the dark haired woman who stood up and clapped. A relative?
ReplyDeleteShe is basically tubular from mid thigh to just below her breasts. That's not normal so she is girdled. On Ellen she was showing a double chin along with the baby fat cheeks.
ReplyDeleteThere is definitely something growing it just depends on whether it just her or her and the end of her abstinence speaking gig.
To anonymous at 6:33 PM...
ReplyDeleteIf it is body dysmorphic and other such difficulties you want to remedy, I also suggest you take up your argument with Ellen "Everybody Knows It's What's On the Outside That Counts" DeGeneres. She is a shill for an industry that has done more to imperil the well-being of women than any other in existence.
I say this in agreement with your comment, not to spite you.
Maybe Bristol WILL do a lap dance next week.
ReplyDeleteThat was not dancing. That was walking. She has no bounce to her step. Pretty lame for a supposedly athletic girl.
ReplyDeleteI've met Bristol, and she is very tiny framed. Couldn't tell it here.
Second dance was really painful to watch.
ReplyDeleteThis wouldn't be the first "fast one" the Palins have tried to pull on the public, and it won't be the last. They've been given a free pass for so long by the "Lame stream media" that they think they can get away with anything.
ReplyDeleteRick
I can't believe Sarah asked her daughter if she was going to do a LAP DANCE on national tv. I wonder how that went over with her consertive christan famlies that where watching. Hey mommy what is a LAP DANCE is Bristol going to do one. This woman is sick. She always has some kind of sexual remark to make.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha Mark shimmies better than Bristol even tho he doesn't have the flab to shimmy around. She barely moves.
ReplyDeleteAnd what's going on there? He kisses her at the end of the dance, then he starts patting her ass????? Is he applying for the new daddy job?
Rick
I did ballroom for six years. Just once a week with a group. A lesson, then we went out dancing at a local club.
ReplyDeleteSamba was my favorite.
That wasn't any Samba I know.
She doesn't seem to be able to do much more than shimmy her upper body.
I won't comment on what the binding is hiding.
I will say she must feel very bad that her Mother has nicer legs than she does. She chubby. I don't know enough about her to say if she's always had a weight problem, it's post-baby fat she hasn't shed or she just likes to eat. But she is verging on a double chin, her upper arms are heavy, her legs are heavy and her midriff is chunky. He body is just slightly more curvy than a tree stump.
Yes, the 'bots are voting to keep her on the show. I'm sure it is their intention to force the win on her just because she is Palin's daughter.
How many more weeks will she have to stick it out? How many weeks/months is it speculated she is along if indeed she is dancing for two?
By the way I am just now watching the program (Yeah being in Alaska we are the last to see EVERYTHING!) and I have to say that the contestants are all kicking some serious ass tonight in their second performances.
ReplyDeleteAll that is except Mama Grizzly's little cub. If she does not get kicked off tonight I think it will cause an outrage all across TV land.
No WAY should any of these last contestants leave before Bristle!
With her up on the chair, at least Mark didn't have to lift her from the floor. She didn't look pregnant to me - either tightly bound or the hoodie is just to punk everybody into talking about her and keep everyone tuning in to see if she is or isn't pregnant.
ReplyDeleteInteresting & rare side view picture posted Oct 19th by Kurt Warner.
ReplyDeletehttp://twitpic.com/2yuxas
Someone posted it on one of IM's earlier blogs.
Too much shimmy and not enough footwork, she still looks like an over-stuffed sausage to me--all short-limbed pudge. I'm still recovering from the costume (2nd week?) when she wore the long lavender satin gloves. The reference to Miss Piggy of Muppet fame was unmistakable. As a former costumer, I thought this was hilarious.
ReplyDeleteConfirmation by the Weekly World News...Bristol Palin pregnant!
ReplyDeletehttp://weeklyworldnews.com/headlines/21890/bristol-palin-pregnant-again/
The full first dance segment is up. I could not stop laughing
ReplyDeleteBetween the "Is it lap dance scandalous?!" and "Just dominate" you know all the tea partiers are imagining Sarah in porn
I'm thinking that the reason she's eating all the time is to purposely gain weight. You can see it in her arms -- they're LARGE for her frame and for her past history (no, this is not "post-baby fat" as she LOST it all after the last baby).
ReplyDeleteWhy would she work so hard to gain weight? So she will look less pregnant. At least this way, she's large all over and not just in her belly area.
However, the camouflage isn't working because she is still much thicker through the mid-section than anywhere else.
The best part was where Carrie Ann Inaba said You're Radiant.
ReplyDeleteEveryone is radiant in their middle trimester of pregnancy.
Oh, the looks. Oh, my.
I asked my 84 yo mother (who has had many children) what she thought of Bristol's dance.
She said she's five months; you asked, that's one old lady's opinion.
This is so much fun. IMHO it is harder on the mother to bind up the pregnancy than it is on the fetus - as I said before, lots of women did it in centuries past.
I don't think it is fibroids because that made me extremely anemic, hair turned light color and I had NO energy. Bristol does not exhibit a thyroid disease or fibroids to me - I'm still sure she's 25 - 30 weeks pregnant.
My next prediction is all the kissy-stuff from Mark is his laying the groundwork to say he and BP have some passion and the child is his, that he is going to parent that baby he loves Bristol and Tripp to the ends of the world, he adores $arah so she approves of all this, and he and Bristol are getting married as the final show of DWTS. Oh, it is so exciting - it will be the biggest show ever and Bristol will win win win!!
If Bristol is not voted off tomorrow night, I'll wager the much better dancers will be pissed. I thought there was some stuff going on tonight in some of the commentary that was made.
ReplyDeleteThere is no way they would announce her the winner...the show would be bombarded with insulting emails, etc.
I don't think she is pregnant - doubt she practices as much as the others and that is why the weight isn't coming off - especially if she tends to overeat.
Her Mother's (sister Sarah) comments were an embarrassment to Bristol and the show tonight. Sexual as usual. What a never ending idiot the woman is!
Better git Brisket up on a chair 'cause I can't lift that heffer up and over my shoulder!!
ReplyDeleteThat poor guy!
That isn't dancing, it's walking and stepping and a couple shimmies along the way. How awful she had to step up on a chair to lay on his shoulder. That was worse than if he'd picked her up and dropped her.
ReplyDeleteI was channel surfing and saw just a minute of Brandy talking and she seems very suspicious of why the last two got kicked off and how getting high scores doesn't seem to matter in the end.
They'd best be booting Bristol before they have a riot on their hands. The show is a sham and now everyone knows it.
(Susie here) Why do you keep making references about Bristol being pregnant? She's overweight overall; she doesn't look or act pregnant. What is your reason for thinking it's anything other than her being just plain fat?
ReplyDeleteJanet in Texas: I've already boycotted DWTS. What a sham!
ReplyDeleteanonymous @10:13...she is only overweight from the belly on up.
ReplyDeleteHer comment 'theyre going to talk about me anyway so why not do something fun'....Ive found very odd.
ReplyDeleteWHY, would they be talking about you 'anyway'...prior to doing this show? The 'talk' prior was mostly SOS, until dwts.
WHY do you crave them talking about you?
Is it if i 'shock' them with
'boldness' they will never think Im preg?...like mom?
2Ps.
Okay, this convinces me. She's not pregnant. When I was a few months pregnant, I was swimming and forgot myself and tried to do a backwards summersault under water. It was excruciating. As the fetus grows, the abs are under pressure from all directions and just can't bend backwards anymore like Bristol does in the first dance.
ReplyDeleteI would not put past the Palins the possibility that they are baiting us. They're having Bristol cup her hands below her belly, wear sweatshirts, keep that phone in her front pocket, and possibly even stuff or wear a small empathy belly in some pictures in order to draw out the theory that she's pregnant.
That way, if the rumors go viral, they can play the victim again, demonstrating that the Trig Truthers are not only obsessed with Sarah's procreation but Bristol's too.
So we should be careful not to let them do that!
Anon 6:55pm
ReplyDeleteI'm totally confused -- where are you guys getting these quotes:
"Take over and dominate", I think she said? "Is it a lap dance?"
--------------------------------------
These quotes are from the show when they had the practice session and Bristol's parents commented/encouraged her.
Bristol saying "screwed" showed her lack of vocabulary. If she grew up just a little, watched her manners, vocabulary, and was truly polite and gracious, she could garner a lot of support across the board.
Her first performance was okay. It wasn't great but she definitely looks like she was trying harder then in previous weeks. She looked like she was having fun. However, some of the other contestants kicked off the show were still better.
Her second dance was a disaster. She basically walked around the floor, did shimmies here and there, gave a couple of leg tosses and that's it. I thought she had more movement from past dances but that doesn't say much.
@10:13 PM:
ReplyDeleteWhy?...she can hardly sit down
(ellen) without making me feel squeezed in a corset.
The 'tummy layers' visible in a few ellen shots had me wanting to rip my own jeans off.
You can pull-off tight spanx while standing, not so sure about sitting.
I wonder if the Orange Blob, was in honor of the Cryin' Man in DC, who will be doomed when SP is chosen for the GOP nomination? Tang Nation?
ReplyDeleteI guess it's official. We're stuck with Bristol and Sarah for the duration. They ain't going nowhere, and Bristol, who probably has made more than $1 million over the past year, will go on to make even more money off her kid(s). I feel like a schmuck paying for my kids' college tuitions.

Bristol is pregnant with a Big Mac, Fries and Chocolate Shake! LOL.
ReplyDeleteShe just has an eating disorder is all. And that constant holding her belly as if she's preggers, she's holding fat and stretched out abdominals, out of instinct, kind of like a security blanket.
We gotta remember, this girl is backwards. She really had no aspirations, got preggers in high school, does what her mother tells her to do, etc. She has no frame of reference other than a few things: friends, junk food, messin around, etc. Bored stupid girl from a small backward town. So I think she clings to the idea of being pregnant, cause it gave her a purpose and an identify. And until she finds another one, which she's trying to do, this is it for her.
The educated world treats Bristol like some kind of victim, like a teen mother living a life by accident. But we know that's not true. That was the life path she deliberately chose, and it blew up in her face. So as she transitions from that, her body language and behavior give the false impression she's pregnant.
Of course I could be wrong, but if I am eventually we'll know because she'll reach 9 months and then give birth.
I watched the show last night, and was more than surprised that Mark was grabbing her ass and the camera was trying not to show it. And yet, they must think we're all voyeurs because everything he does with her is for the camera, and he tries to push the limit on every show. It's very odd.
ReplyDeleteThe professionalism of the other dancers is in striking contrast. While they are fond of their charges, they have no intimate or obsessive relationship, it's just dance.
The comments from the other dancers and stars who are working very hard, are becoming more and more frequent that they don't think it's fair that better dancers are being voted off. It will be very interesting to see, because if the palinbot voting continues, in theory she should win the competition or come very close. We'll see how far the producers let this go.
And as far as Mark, I wouldn't be surprise if he left the show after this, not only because I think he's lost some credibility, but because he wants a bigger career with the help of the Palins.
My husband and I watched her first dance....he was shocked when Mark picked Bristol up. Made the commment that he didn't think she was pregnant, but could even be diabetic, the bloated face arms and belly are all indications of diabetes.
ReplyDeleteFace it, Bristol is an inanimate object.
ReplyDeleteShaking your tits and swiveling your hips is best reserved for the strip joints.
The Ellen show was taped last Wednesday or Thursday at the latest, so less than a week ago.
ReplyDeleteBristol looks like she has lost weight in her legs, but not arms, face or belly. The rehearsal footage gave it away, the blue t-shirt still showed the belly bulge.
I gave you all a link on the Ellen show thread which shows Bristol outside of her trailer after the gorilla suit episode getting her costume zipped off by a show person. You can clearly see the black full body SPANX that came up to her boobs. She may have lost a little of the extra flab, but the belly is still there.
check out hollywood.tv if you don't believe me it is the video entitled:
Pepto Bismol ,Bristol Palin @DWTHS CBS
Watching her get up off the floor is pretty telling. I have to say that when I was 20, dancing and having fun, I would have bounced up off that floor.... not looked like, well..... her.
ReplyDeleteThe fringe on her costumes gives the illusion of movement, which is why she always wears fringe.
ReplyDeletePerfect! @8:46 - "Too much shimmy and not enough footwork, she still looks like an over-stuffed sausage to me--all short-limbed pudge." Haha!
ReplyDeleteShe still can't dance, but she sure has learned to shake those money-makers! Aren't we glad her mama is so proud?
I feel bad for those so much better than her who have been eliminated while she's been allowed to stay. Doesn't say much for the producers.
We know that she, like Kate Gosselin last season, was only invited to participate for ratings, but enough is enough already.
I think she is pregnant, and they add padding above her belly to make it look flat.
ReplyDeleteI don't think DWTS is actually "live," though, right? The voting is live but the show has been already taped?
ReplyDeleteI did notice in the first dance that the camera seemed to cut quickly to another angle if we were about to get a side view or whatever.
Sad that this show has to become a Tea Party, or any other party, campaigning event. Why can't we just have a dance show without ulterior motives? And they might as well just give Bristol the trophy now. I am positive that if she is "safe" tonight she will win. Either she goes tonight, or never. Even that one guy from the show was admitting Tea Party "involvement." Get away from you, did it?
Watching the second dance, the following Palinesque thought came to me.
ReplyDeleteMark Ballas with his short hair and white shirt looks a bit like President Obama.
Did Sarah help choose him as Bristol's partner and choreograph this whole bizarre scene?
Sarah uses Bristol as a substitute for herself. Mark in dance is the POS begging Sarah for sexual favors. Sarah coyly teases the POS and is in command of the situation. The POS is relegated to dancing circles around Sarah, hoping hoping.
This seems ridiculous, but the whole Palin nightmare is a bizarre black comedy.
SP must be the most competitive person I've ever seen. The advice she gave Bristol "knock them down and step on them so your dance will look better" or something like that. That is not the exact quote, just what she meant. And it wasn't clear enough that in order to get more votes, they put Sarah on the air. Good Grief.
ReplyDeleteDoes Bristol play on that new show on AMC, "The walking Dead"? Seems like it.
ReplyDeleteIt will be Kurt not Bristol that will go tonight. They need Sarah one more week.
ReplyDeleteMust be she doesn't live on energy drinks and bites of steak.
ReplyDeleteI think the costumers are not only adding extra padding between her belly and her boobs, but they are also padding the "girls". There are many pictures of Brisket where she is not particularily busty, but her boobs look enormous when she's "dancing".
ReplyDeleteDo the Palinbots not realize just how damn pathetic it is, their dedication to keeping a teenager on a TV show? LMAO!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my god. There she is again. It was a complete repeat of her first red fringe dance. She still kept looking over at Mark to cue her in on her next move.
ReplyDeleteGod save the finge, the booby shake, spanx and the finger point. Those are the only things that help Bristol. Not to mention her tiny dancer partner.
You look at the strenuousness that the other dancers execute in their routine's, they actually jump and lift their bodies off the floor. Doing that gallop - she still kept her feet prone. Looking back on her air guitar stunt, she was in it only for a full second before she broke character, quit, was laughing at their silliness, and caught Mark still doing it so she started it again only to keep her peripheral eye out to figure out when to move to the next move. Pathetic.
It's probably her condition that keeps her from engaging more, being in her late second Trimester, but to keep giving the Palin's a pass just because they want something, is complete and utter bullshit.
It is as unAmerican as the Tea Party vomits out their mouth, that the Palin's practice a form of welfare off the celebrity of their victimhood of the common Family Values troupe. Bristol didn't earn her way into primetime television, she hasn't put in the time and effort the way 16 year old runaways do when they bus into New York or L.A.
What is fact here, is that Bristol can not dance, she has no business being in the top eight or six or three. . .Bristol can't dance but she's going to get a killer book deal on her story - being pregnant and competing in a rigorous show while trying to figure out how to break it to the Palinista's that she did not keep her own Abstinence pledge - again.
And Mark. He may have picked the short straw on the worst dance partner, but he picked the most lucrative train wreck and he's leveraging it to the max. His affections, his propping up, his herculean effort to mask her inadequacies - the bots are in love with Mark being so good to her. He is more of a household name because of the Palin factor.
To Martha @9:57 To be a heifer, you are an unbred cow, this can hardly be Bristol with two past breedings.
ReplyDeleteDancing with the Stars is fake. It's fixed. A better dancer than Bristol will be packing his or her dancing shoes. This is Sarah's payoff to Bristol, whose engagement was successfully broken up by Sarah a week after its public announcement. Bristol is going to stay on that show until somebody decides that the girl has enough talent, followers or her mother is pushy enough to get her own TV series. (Sorry, Levi, you've been kicked to the curb).
ReplyDeleteIf Bristol isn't pregnant, that's an unhealthy gut after so much dancing and week-long practice.
Everything about Bristol and DWTS is fixed and fake. And, she still can't dance. Shaking her body is just the distraction, along with some successful costume tricks.
Bristol is just plain FAT, pregnant or not. She must be packing in some serious calories to remain that fat and dancing 7 days a week. Compare her to the other female dancers. And even Kyle who was very heavy at the start has lost a ton of weight. If she's not pregnant, she's got a serious eating disorder. With a mother like hers, I'll bet all of those Palin kids have some serious disorder of some kind.
ReplyDeletehey gryph,
ReplyDeletehere are the longer versions of both performances which include judging ans scoring, as well as sarah's "appearance":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eboZZvudjWM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JiCVoHHCAc
I don't know...she shouldn't be doing that backbends (back arches, really) if pregnant. That is a HUGE no-no.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting really tired of watching her "shake it like a porn star".
ReplyDelete"And Mark. He may have picked the short straw on the worst dance partner, but he picked the most lucrative train wreck and he's leveraging it to the max. His affections, his propping up, his herculean effort to mask her inadequacies - the bots are in love with Mark.."
ReplyDeleteReally. He's a little unhinged lately. And the way he is marking his territory with Bristol, with the ass grabs, kisses, etc, is getting a little old. I'm just waiting for him to pull an O.J. and grab her by the crotch and say "This is mine!"
You know what I want to say to Mark? WE DON'T CARE. F*ck her til next Tuesday if you want, just don't make us watch.
I've chubbed out at certain times in my
ReplyDeletelife (like after a car accident), and I've
worn foundations to hide bulges, but the
thing is, they just push the weight around
and they'll give you a flat belly, but you'll
have a thick waist. They make you look
like solid fat, rather than a bulge here
and a big butt there. It is easier to diet
than to dress around the weird shapes
that shapers give.
bristol hollywood stepped it up this week in the black dress dance, only problem is, this is where she should have been during the 3rd week, not the 8th. she is still waaaay behind the others.
ReplyDeleteshe doesn't look pregnant in the black dress, but - where are her boobs? they disappeared. no boobs in the profile shots. such a striking difference between previous outfits. I agree with the others who say she looks like she's been stuffed into a tube. she's got the same profile width from the top of her chest to the bottom of her hips. it's all very strange.
In the move where Bristol gets up on a chair and falls back onto Mark's shoulder, you can see Mark bracing himself. And as he spins her, her spine is actually quite straight. She's not draped back gracefully.
ReplyDeleteAnd in the move where she and Mark are kneeling side by side, I thought for a moment she wasn't going to be able to stand up. She definitely had a struggle to get up, one foot at a time.

For reference, here is Sabrina Bryan's last dance with Mark Ballas on her season of DWTS. This was week 6 and Sabrina was eliminated!
ReplyDeleteSabrina has a similar body type to Bristol but Sabrina was and is in excellent physical shape. Sabrina also worked hard, practiced and gave it her all--unlike Bristol.
To be fair, Sabrina also has musicality, personality and charm, unlike Bristol, as well as performance experience, unlike Bristol. The video just shows how poor Bristol's performance is.
http://youtu.be/5aoxSwNelbY
The judges are so fake, and the whole show is a joke. They've been making up shit to say, and propping up Bristol for weeks. You can see that even Bristol herself doesn't take it seriously. Mark must have told her, it's all staged, it's all for ratings so don't sweat it - go on vacation to Alaska, or go clubbing and when you come back everything will be fine.
ReplyDeleteI was used to watching "So You Think You Can Dance." I never even saw DWTS until now. I'm accustomed to seeing Mia Michaels grill each and every contestant, cutting them as she goes. I'm used to real judges who have real explanations for their critiques, and don't play favorites, for the most part. There is no dumb Tom Bergeron, no lame music or stupid effects. It's basically a real dance show. So when I saw DWTS for the first time and watched the cheap effects and the absolute charade of judges....I couldn't believe it, lol.
Bristol flies back to Wasilla because she misses Tripp. Conveniently she and Mark rehearse and Todd and Sarah just happen to be around to be in everyone's living room while watching Bristol practice. No Tripp in sight. Maybe his agent thought he should get more money. Kurt's kids did much better at their skit during these heartfelt visits with family. Todd and Sarah both have terrible voices and don't act well. Todd looks like he is decaying from some fatal disease. What a crock everything about this show has become. We now know why Bristol said that trip was about missing Tripp.
ReplyDeleteOk, so BP has the shimmy down pat...she can stand still and shake her hips...she can also,too walk and shimmy...black dress was nice but as most women know, black hides a multitude of sins (that's why I wear a lot of black)...on HuffPo there is a still before the orange dress "samba" of Dancerina and Mark...large oval shaped area in the center of her body...and yes she is definitely thick around the torso...where is that tiny high school girl...she hasn't aged that much over the last two years...
ReplyDeleteI think Mark Ballas is out of a job. I sure hope they mean to throw him some scraps. A life- and career-changing moment, meeting up with the Alaskans!
ReplyDeleteYep, when they finally wrap this up, Mark is done on DWTS.
Maybe the Palins are going to give him a cameo and $500,000? Or they can just be best friends forever and he's welcome in Wasilla anytime?
Whatever. Producers, could you counsel the young couple on too much groping, and maybe give some direction that he should tuck it in a little bit, stop fondling her. It's distracting and ugly.
Can you imagine what's going on in Bristol's head? She knows she shouldn't be on the show any more. She knows she's not still on it through her own honest efforts. How do you think that effects her self image? I'll bet it eats at her. Not good for someone with a history of substance abuse.
ReplyDeleteWhat have you really done on your own Bristol? Besides getting PG?
Rick
“Just dominate, just take over. That’s really good.”
ReplyDeleteBristol needs to take over her own life and deal with why she is gaining weight now.
It is obvious that Bristol could squash her partner by lightly stepping on him via her newly toned legs and the strength of her multiple chins.
If you were Bristol's mother what would you care about? A dominatrix daughter in a sexy sequined dress or why she is gaining so much weight?
i can't believe all of the hateful posts on here. i really cannot stand the ones that condemn anyone for getting pregnant as a teenager ...like it is a "fun" thing! it is very hurtful for a lot of people. to make fun of someone's looks and start nasty rumors is just horrible. what has this girl ever done to any of you people?! wish i could see some of you so i could criticize your looks! True, she isn't a good dancer. True she is only on there because of who her mother is...but the football player was only on because he could throw a football, and Kate was on for having 8 kids. Give the girl a break! How sad you people are not to have anything better to do than to pick anyone apart like this! Must make you feel big or something...i don't know!
ReplyDeleteRick 11:51
ReplyDeleteexcellent point.
She is cheating and she knows it. or more accurately Mommie Dearest is cheating for her, and she knows it.
Unfortunately for her she is kind of like a white trash version of Duhbya. Always tied to the apron strings.
Wanna see some real dancing Bristol? From a Boggie Woogie contest in Switzerland.

Actually, I am not condemning Bristol for getting pregnant while young and unwed. I am more interested in the fact that she professes to be a role model on behalf of abstinence, collecting thousands of dollars for her work with the Candie's organization.
ReplyDeleteI am more interested in the fact that her mother would endorse "pro-life" policies while at the same time cutting funding and assistance for young single mothers. Even worse, while cutting social benefits that help at-risk children in this country. Case in point - Sarah Palin has a problem with laws which hold schools accountable for providing proper nutrition to their students. She really cares about our nation's children, doesn't she? Some of these poor kids are only getting a proper meal at school. I forgot, that's their fault, isn't it?
We are not hateful here, at least not those of us who could care less about the girl's weight. We are simply refusing to go away, refusing to accept yet one more sham the Palin family intends to foist off on an American public the Palin family hopes will help elect their matriarch President of the United States of America.
Do you think if similar questions were ever raised about the Obama daughters that they would be dismissed so quickly? No, they would be blown up to epic proportions. I can pretty much promise you these questions will never arise about the Obama girls. They are being raised by thoughtful and attentive parents.
Are we taking bets whether or not the dancing pregnant elephant gets the boot tonight? There has been a bunch of articles in today's newspapers and website saying that Bristol is only still there because of her mother's politics. I hope DWTS gets a little fear up their rear ends and dump the twit. DWTS is going to be permanently damaged if they don't end this crap now.
ReplyDeleteSameo-sameo-sameo. Walking like it is a chore. Wiggling her fat arms skyward every dance as if she is praying to the gods to help her out. Shimmying to show off her recent breast reductions and showing the audience that the first two liposuctions didn't work. Don't give out the name of the Palin's plastic surgeon--Sarah's surgery wasn't that much better. Bristol Palin's dancing is a joke. Her mom is showing the voters why she got so many ethics complaints while she was half term Guv. Heather Bruce is coming across as willing to do anything if she gets a part in the Palin Reality show. Dancing with the stars sold their soul to the Palin family--and they even brag about Sarah and Todd being offered the roles before Bristol. This season has got to be so insulting--Jennifer and Kyle and Brandy and even Kurt are busting their asses off to do a good job and Bristol keeps going to Alaska on vacation or flying elsewhere to be on the talk shows. It's all about the money--they have bought the mirror ball trophy for the spoiled little pregnant kid and the others will all be eliminated. This is why Sarah Palin is called a barracuda or a pit bull--animals that are dirty fighters and can't be trusted.
ReplyDeleteIf Bristol is pregnant, why does Mark do so much kissing, patting, touchy feeling? He is so horny he just can't keep his paws off Bristol. It is disgusting. None of the other dancers do this.
ReplyDeleteThis is pure BULLSHIT. I am e-mailing DWTS right now and protesting this crap. And then I am getting a petition up on Facebook to boycott ABC for this political ploy.
ReplyDeleteShe's safe, again. Surprise surprise.
ReplyDeleteWTFFFFFF
ReplyDeleteShe is safe again.WTH Her dancing sucks.
No surprise that Bristol would be safe. It was going to be Kurt or Kyle. I'm not over Rick and Cho. The singer and Henderson were far better. This show sucks and it is a sad day if they get by with this. The judges have been as disgusting as they come. It is stupid to watch a fixed show. Too, too, too bad about all the talent that will be ruin by being associated with this pack of lies. Mark looks so bad with her and the weirdness of what he is doing. I know it is his job but he has no integrity now.
ReplyDeleteBristol wants to put her unwed teen fame behind her. She banned her friends from the MTV pregnant babies having babies show from her DWTS audience. She is all growed up now and doesn't want to be tagged with those other unweds. The new sexy Bristol can do anything. No more Levi and no more unwed teen associations. She is re-branded.
The politics that keep Bristol shimmying on 'Dancing'

I love that second song. How a person could have no rhythm to that music or feel a beat to naturally move their hips (note how Mark does) is beyond me.
ReplyDeleteBristol had a poor performance in this dance. I would enjoy an opportunity to train and have a super dance partner like Mark.
Mark got her a clown but that did not help the emotionally disconnected Bristol. I respet Mark for he had quite a challenge on his hands and I most enjoyed his dancing outperforming to make up for Bristol's inability to perform or improve her skills. She had no motivation for the bots would make her win so why bother?
Ha...don't forget she wanted to demonstrate her "work ethic" which was videos with Mama mostly. That is her ethic, folks!
So, she must be checking out all that is said about her b/c in both dances, she leaned back- which I believe most have been saying she could never do if she was prenant. She definitely looked thinner in those dresses she had on, but you could also tell that she was wearing something tight under them. She looked huge on Ellen.
ReplyDeleteHer 2nd dance was HORENDOUS. I can't believe she made it again. I didn't watch it, but what was the judges reaction this time? Based on who is left, I can totally see Kyle leaving next and Bristol will be in the top 3 with Brandi and Jennifer. Then she will be released. But then, we've been saying that all along haven't we?
Oh, and btw- I'm sick to death of her boob shimmy. It's tacky and shows no skill.
ReplyDeleteKudos to Kyle for his weight loss. He was a hoot when he drew in six pack abs the declared he was going to have "Situation" abs.
ReplyDeleteMore power to Kyle. He has determination and wroks hard toward his goals. He may get a real six pack set of abs!
The only thing that is giving me any sort of doubt that BP is pregnant is that I would think, after Tripp, that she would be on the pill. If she isnt on the pill, or shots, or whatever, then that girl is dumb beyond comprehension.
ReplyDelete@If Bristol is pregnant, why does Mark do so much kissing, patting, touchy feeling? He is so horny he just can't keep his paws off Bristol. It is disgusting. None of the other dancers do this.
ReplyDelete4:39 PM
For some men, there is nothing more irresistable and sexy than a woman with child. He is very touchy with her and at first, she seemed to resist it- seemed uncomfortable with it. But not now- she often reaches out for his hand and she didn't pull away at all from his ass patting last night. I LOVE how they tried to not film it! LOL
I could, and have, watched that second dance over and over again! It's hilarious! Especially around the 1 minute mark when Bristol hops around on one foot totally lost... Priceless!
ReplyDeleteGreat work ethic there Bris.
