Bristol Palin's final DWTS "performance." Clearly she never learned a thing. Update!

I actually have mixed feelings about Mark Ballas, since in many ways he is now a Palin enabler, but I do feel sorry for him watching as he dances like a madman while essentially dragging a wet bag of sand across the stage.

And all Bristol can manage is to shake her breasts which was essentially the first thing she ever learned in order to cover for her lack of ability. In other words not a single thing has changed.

This clip also includes Pamela Anderson who I think is a pretty poor dancer as well, however next to "Bristol the misfiring Pistol" she looks positively acrobatic. (Check out her high kicks, and then imagine Bristol throwing her leg up like that. You know without the benefit of wine coolers.)

Really the best thing about this performance is that it will be the LAST one of Bristol's shuffling, off rhythm, zombie walks that we will have to suffer through, as even the obviously learning disabled DWTS producers must by now realize that she is simply an embarrassment to the show, to the producers, and to the very idea of dance.

P.S. Just for comparison sake here is the opening number which features all of this season's contestants. Don't worry it is easy to pick Palin out of the crowd, she is the one that appears to be on life support.

Update: Huffington Post has a short blurb on Bristol's appearance and a picture.

"I'm definitely in better shape than I was last time, definitely. I'm just more active and I cut all the crap out of my diet! It's that simple," she told Us Weekly in September. "And my kid's a lot more rowdy, a lot more active. I'm running after him a lot! He's huge! He thinks he's a teenager already." 

Sarah Palin's daughter also has a new rumored love interest: snowmobiler Joey Junker, 30, who is also from Alaska.

So essentially BP is still claiming that the weight difference from her last appearance is due solely to cutting the "crap" out of her diet and chasing her son around. A workout regime that has worked wonders for many a young mother. Yeah right!

Gee I imagine that the weight loss book that the family is writing will only be two or three pages long then.

Chapter One: Don't eat crap!

Chapter Two: Chase a small boy around.

Chapter Three: Pay me for this advice!

Update 2: When the Palins DO write that weight loss book, they might not want to have any pictures like this included.

Not to be judgmental, but perhaps Bristol needs to convince Tripp to run up and down a couple of flights of stairs, so she can chase him and firm up those all important gluteus maximus muscles. You know, since HE'S her only identified source of exercise.

Just why DID Bristol Palin get kicked off Dancing with the Stars this week? You know besides the obvious reason?

The very picture of the dysfunctional American family.

There have been a lot of rumors as to WHY Bristol finally got voted off the show last Tuesday. Everything from "that was when her contract ran out," to "the producers were afraid that keeping her one any longer would permanently damage the show," to  "she was just too embarrassed to stay on any longer." However another possibility was that the OTHER contestants and pros were possibly complaining so aggressively that the producers simply had no other choice.

After all if some of the interviews with Mark Ballas are correct, it appears that neither Bristol NOR her ever controlling mother had any idea she was about to be kicked off. Remember Bristol was SO upset she could not even come out to meet the press afterward, and then there's this from Ballas: "Mama Palin was a little upset."

As I have said before Palin does not get just a LITTLE upset, so if she were angry enough about this that Mark heard about it, then it seems likely that she had NO idea Bristol was getting the old heave-ho.

So if this was not prearranged by the Palins then why did Bristol get the boot now instead of a week from now, or at the very beginning of the show when by all rights she should have been the first person kicked to the curb? And why would the producers risk pissing off one of the most vindictive people on the planet if they did not have to?

Perhaps this article from US Weekly provides some insight into that question?

Bristol Palin was shown the door on this past Tuesday's Dancing with the Stars -- but singer (and experienced dancer) Drew Lachey went home first, and vented backstage on Oct. 9 about that the single mom, 22, had outlasted him on the ABC smash. 

The 98 Degrees crooner, 36 -- who won season 2 of DWTS -- vented backstage and "threw a fit," a source tells Us Weekly. 

"He was complaining that Bristol has no talent and no reason to be there," the source continues of Lachey's rant against Sarah Palin's eldest, who made it to finale of season 11 back in 2010. 

According to the source, Lachey bellowed, "Am I on the right show? I thought this was Dancing with the Stars" and called Palin "a joke." 

Yowch! You know if Lachey was feeling this way, and getting this worked up over the fact this clearly untalented sloth was staying on the show while far more talented and harder working people were being forced off, it stand to reason that he was not alone in that assessment.

So perhaps the reason that Bristol was given the bum's rush is because the producers were trying to head off a mutiny from the other participants. Or were in fear that the next contestants to leave ahead of Bristol would ALSO raise a big enough stink that it made it into the gossip magazines.

Just a theory but it does kind of fit. What do you think?

Bristol and Mark visit the View after getting booted off Dancing with the Stars.

Essentially Bristol is just as wooden and expressiveness here as she was on DWTS, again essentially making Mark work extra hard to answer the questions and compensate for her lack of ability and desire to put forth any effort.

I kind of felt sorry for Mark who tried to cover for Bristol by suggesting that his foster brother Derek did not choose HIM for the team dance and that he will get him back later, rather than have to admit that they simply did not want anything to do with Bristol.

I liked how when Joy was asking about Bristol's relationship with Levi that she slipped in that she "knows about the whole story basically."

Of course Bristol attempts to refuse the question at first saying that "people are sick of hearing the story," at which Joy says "No they're not." And then admits that she is "sick of being asked about it."

But then Bristol gives her usual canned answer, that she is "raising Tripp by myself" and working on building a relationship with Levi, which of course is pure mooseshit.

And now that she is not distracted by DWTS she will undoubtedly start actively working to interfere with Levi and Tripp's relationship again.

Bristol Palin snubs press after being booted off Dancing with the Stars. Update!

After getting eliminated on tonight's Dancing With the Stars, Bristol Palin refused to talk to any press after the show. That's a first! 

Yeah I bet that's a first. The first time that DWTS had anybody as entitled and petulant as a member of the Palin family. Considering some of the egos that have competed that is really saying something.

But we did catch up with partner Mark Ballas—here's what he had to say: 

"She's preparing for the schedule that lays ahead," Mark said about his partner's absence. Mmhmm. 

Seriously? As far as I know this was her last hurrah, and I don't know of ANYTHING she has planned for her future, besides breaking open a few wine coolers that is. However I am certain that, knowing the Grizzled Mama, Bristol will be pimped out for some QVC-like show or cable ready dating program at some point before this ridiculous family finally fades from the limelight forever.


So how is she doing? "It's tough man," responded Ballas. "I'm sure it's alarming. I'm just really proud of her. For someone like that with zero entertainment experience, she didn't go down without a fight." 

"Definitely more vocal about what she wants and how she wants to approach things," Mark Ballas said about how Bristol has changed from their first season together. "I really tried my best here. There's not much more I could have done."

Yeah I don't think there was ANYTHING more that Ballas could have done, short of dancing Bristol's part of the dance for her. And didn't he phrase it nicely that she was "definitely more vocal about what she wants and how she wants to approach things?" So much nicer than simply saying she was a "bitch on ice."

But we know better, don't we?

By the way despite Bristol's snotty attitude toward the press she and Mark HAD to honor the part of their contract to appear with Jimmy Kimmel after their elimination. Here is the first part where Bristol demands an apology for the jokes about her mother, and the second part where Kimmel suggest that Bristol should appear on the Bachelorette. (Oh you just KNOW her mother is frantically making phones calls after hearing THAT suggestion.)

Update: Here is more from Extra:

"Extra's" Renee Bargh went to interview the couple after their elimination, but Bristol was nowhere to be found. Ballas spoke of her quick exit from the ballroom, "She's doing okay. She's a little sad." 

He continued, "She went down swinging. Didn't try to back down for anybody. Mama Palin was a little upset."

"Mama Palin was a little upset?"Let me tell you something, that Lunatic from Lake Lucille doesn't just get a "little upset" about ANYTHING! If she was really surprised at the fact that Bristol got voted off there will be all kinds of hell to pay.

My advice to the producers of the show is to not fly on any small planes in the near future.

A "little upset," hah!

Bristol eliminated! Well about damn time! Update!

Bristol Palin, the controversial voting bloc contestant of Dancing with the Stars, was eliminated tonight amid re-firing of voting bloc rumours. The daughter of the outspoken Sarah Palin was wrecked by vote rigging rumours during her 11th season stint on the campy dance extravaganza. Palin and Mark Ballas, her dance partner, scored the lowest points, on six separate occasions, during their notorious run on the 11th season. Gossipmongers pointed the finger at DWTS and made the show one of the most politically charged reality television shows in history. The viewership figures exploded to epic proportions and Palin/Ballas scored an extremely unwelcome third place position during their season’s finale. 

On last night’s show Bristol Palin and Mark Ballas danced a Rock & Roll routine chosen because of being the last style on the list. The judges gave them, once again, great critique. Bruno said that Bristol was “hitting all the steps” and Paula said she did a “good job”. All of the judges gave Bristol and Mark a score of 8, for a total of 32 points, the second lowest score of the night. They are still stuck at the bottom of the overall leader board with 84 points. If Paula Abdul’s scoring were to be removed, Bristol and Mark would have scored 24 points, their highest score of the season. 

Were they eliminated due to loss of interest in the show? Did their voting blocs up and leave? Were they merely used as a ploy by producers? Did their elimination merely cement the fact that the producers were trying to undo past mistakes? Our lips, thoughts and imaginations are sealed, but one thing is for certain, Bristol Palin and Mark Ballas sucked worse than an octopus with anxiety during their second and final run on the campiest reality television show in history.

Gee I wonder if the producers finally realized that they would soon have rioting in the streets if they left this totally untalented loser on the show?

Well all I can say is that it is still too little too late. This train wreck should NEVER have been invited back on a show that featured so many gifted performers.

Please do me a favor and send me the clip of the elimination as soon as it becomes available.

You know, for science.

Update: Here is the elimination clip.  Bristol is NOT a gracious loser!

Anderson Cooper calls Bristol Palin a "genius" for faking her rehearsal meltdown. I could NOT have heard that right!

Of course then both he and Deborah Norville make fun of the fact that Bristol tweets during her "meltdown" and that she has had so much plastic surgery that her face does not register any emotion, so that totally redeems Anderson in my eyes.

However for future reference NOBODY should ever use the name "Bristol Palin" and "genius" together in the same sentence. Ever!

Bristol Palin earns her nickname "Brittle" as she breaks down and storms out of rehearsal for tonight's DWTS episode. Update!

Courtesy of People:  

Bristol Palin recently talked to PEOPLE about her newfound confidence this time around on Dancing with the Stars – but when it comes to her partner Mark Ballas, she still has insecurities. 

During a tense rehearsal, she began to cry after getting criticism from Ballas. 

"I know you feel bad you don't have Sabrina [Bryan] or Shawn [Johnson]," Palin, 21, tells Ballas, 26, right after he says, "Your energy is off." (God we all know that's true!)

Palin goes on to say, "I feel like you're just bummed that you have me as a partner." 

When Ballas asks her, "What have I done to make you feel that way?" Palin says, "Just in general. Like, oh, dang, you got paired with Bristol." 

 The ballroom pro, who says he always gives 100 percent during the competition, adds, "I'm not dancing around without committing myself. … I can sit here and train you all day. I can give you these choreography steps, but if you don't apply yourself on the floor and give me that personality that I know you can, then I can't force it out of you. I stick up for you through thick and thin – always." 

 Palin, wiping away tears at this point, says, "You, like, play this victim role. I know that I'm here, I'm on time, I'm ready to go. I wouldn't be on the show if I wasn't going to take it seriously." 

After calling her partner out for missing a rehearsal, Palin sits down and types on her phone. 

"Can you not be like that?" Ballas asks, putting his hands on her legs. "Don't be like that." 

Palin then gets up and says, "I'm just not doing this anymore," while walking away. 

(You can see video of this pathetic little tantrum by clicking the link at the top.)
 

Did she seriously accuse HIM of playing the victim?

Throwing a tantrum and projecting YOUR personality flaws onto other people, it's like Sarah and Bristol are virtually the same person now.

She probably realizes she is about to get the boot, and she is undoubtedly right since they are having a double elimination tonight.

Jesus, what a spoiled little bitch.

Of course I guess Bristol can take some solace in making the list of Hollywood parents that pimp their kids. I think in the Palin family this is like winning an Oscar.

Well hopefully tonight is the LAST time we have to watch the Chin stumble across the stage like a recently sedated walrus, while Mark kills himself trying to dance for two.

Fingers crossed kids!

P.S. Yes this post will also serve as the open thread for tonight's episode.

Update: Well it looks like Granny Grifter is not satisfied to simply read about Bristol in the National Enquirer, she has also used her Facebook account to bolster claims that Bristol has been receiving "death threats" and to pimp for votes.

I’m in California today to support Bristol. I’m sorry to see that she’s again getting those annoying death threats and more “mysterious white powder” sent to her while on DWTS this All-Star season. These threats sure waste a lot of time, production and public resources; but do the haters really think this will stop Bristol and Mark and the show’s producers from keepin' on keepin' on? Silly critics -- after all these years of goofy antics like this we find these efforts are actually quite motivating! Bristol’s not letting this get her down. Anyway, tonight is a “double elimination” night, so hopefully everyone who has supported her so far will do so again! I'll be sure to post the call in number and voting instructions later today before the event. Thank you again to everyone. It means a great deal during this fun and highly competitive event, and it's sure appreciated! 

As Bristol shares with anyone targeted by the naysayers in life: “Hey, the haters will hate anyway; the critics will criticize, so you might as well dance!”

I assume she had RAM write this for her before the video emerged of Bristol's tantrum, in which she went from "might as well dance" to "fuck this might as well walk away."

Update 2: Are they just trying to make themselves look ridiculous now?

From Palin's Facebook page.

"Look out Hollywood, herein we comes!"

Update 3: Here is the dance. Just as bad as you probably imagined.

Bristol Palin responds to judge's criticism of her dancing. "It was pretty ghetto.”

Courtesy of The Clicker:

Contestant Bristol Palin, despite receiving the lowest scores among the competitors, has been voted through while arguably more qualified co-stars are gone -- just like she was when she competed in Season 11. The reality TV star and pro partner Mark Ballas scored 18 points on Monday’s performance show. But they earned enough viewer votes to survive, so Joey Fatone and partner Kym Johnson, who earned 22.5 points, were sent packing. 

“I’m definitely relieved,” Palin told Today in the post show press line. “But it sucks seeing Joey gone.” 

But what did the couple think of judge Carrie Ann Inaba’s proclamation on Monday that because Ballas and Palin “slammed” the judges (by breaking a quickstep rule about breaking hold in the middle of the dance) that the judges were going to "slam back"? 

“It was pretty ghetto,” Palin responded. “I was just like, ‘Okay! Whatever!’ It was pretty laughable.” 

“We should write our own rap song called ‘Slam Back,’” suggested Ballas. 

While the couple has found themselves in controversy once again, they’re not getting caught up in the hype. 

“I’m on Twitter,” Ballas said. “But (Bristol) doesn’t really tweet. There are so many haters. At the end of the day it’s just a dance show.” 

“This is a positive sign,” said Palin. “We’ve been voted through even though we had the lowest scores. That speaks volumes to anyone hiding behind a cell phone who are tweeting about us.” 

Apparently, Palin’s developed a bit of a thicker skin this time around -- or at least she’s more used to doing interviews. 

“I knew what I was getting myself into when I signed up,” she said of the experience.

Yeah I bet she knew what she signed up for. Or perhaps more appropriately, what deal her mother cut in her favor.

You know what they say, you can take the girl out of Wasilla, but.......

By the way I think that this response to a question about Honey Boo Boo says it all about Brsitol and her aspirations.

“I’m a Honey Boo Boo fan, definitely.”

“I’m a big fan. More power to her for having such a successful show.”

Yep, that about sums it up.

If anybody in the family is getting any attention you know Sarah Palin will be there to bask in the reflected "glory."

Last night we saw that Sarah had dragged her purse carrier Todd, and Levi's son with her to sit in the audience and smile at every cameraman until finally SOMEBODY filmed them.

"Smile like we're a happy family dammit!"

After the show "Extra's" Maria Menounos apparently drew the short straw and had to try and interview the vacuous one, during which Palin threw in just about EVERY SINGLE ONE of her predictable talking points.

Bristol is "so grounded" with "so much energy" while also "working hard" and being "humble." (Sorry I just threw up in my mouth a little.)

And then of course Palin made the point of talking about her religiosity "I do, I mean I pray that God be glorified, one way or the other, no matter the outcome." It was truly a hyperactive and bizarre interview.

By the way the manufactured drama between Pamela Anderson and Bristol, saying that Anderson made "she's crazy" motions with her finger, is complete BS. I saw the video piece and she really was simply playing with her hair.

However I have no problem stating for the record that the whole damn family is a bunch of nutjobs. And my finger is nowhere NEAR my hair!

Dancing with the Stars Open Thread. Update!

I originally was going to skip this, but I do know that many of you will be watching, so I thought I would have a place where you could leave your comments.

Personally I might leave it on as background while I work tonight, but then again some of the returning contestants ARE quite talented so I might just find myself sucked in against my better judgement.

Here is what the New York Daily News gave as odds that Bristol and Mark might win this year:  

Bristol Palin (season 11 finalist) 

Partner: Mark Ballas 

Odds: This was the beginning of all things controversial surrounding Bristol Palin. The daughter of Tea Party darling Sarah Palin was under the microscope each week as viewers who wouldn’t normally tune in to the dancing competition got invested in the action, making the entertainment show a little political. She’s partnered with Mark Ballas again, which will definitely give her a boost of confidence, but lest she show up in a monkey suit again, Palin’s appeal may remain more superficial. 15:1 

In my opinion that is MUCH too generous and probably indicates that the New York Daily News simply doesn't enjoy wading through misspelled Palin-bot hate mail.

P.S. For those who want to hear Bristol drone on about what she thinks of her chances this year, here is a link to her last interview on SarahNet radio.

P.P.S. Or if you don't want to listen to her (And who could blame you?), here is what she had Nancy French blog on her behalf:

People sometimes ask me what my goals are. Well, to be perfectly honest, my goal is modest: I don't want to get voted off the first week. You can help me with that!! If you want to be a part of my journey, e-mail me so I can add you to my DWTS mailing list. (My address is BristolsBlog@gmail.com, please use the subject line: DWTS.)

Her mother whores herself out for cash, the Teabaggers and Fox News, and Bristol shakes her reconstructed moneymaker for votes, and to stretch her fifteen minutes of fame well past its expiration date. Surgically enhanced birds of a feather.

Update: Okay folks here is Bristol's' debut.

Bristol Palin, the Mama Grizzly's favorite little hypocritical clone, continues her Moosepoop-a-palooza.

It is essentially the same pack of lies the Bristol told before, with a few added rationalizations and exaggerations, only this time she is invading Levi's turf by talking to the Insider:

"I think I've just grown up a lot in the last two years," (All evidence to the contrary presented in her "reality show" aside.)Palin said when asked to compare her two experiences on the dancing show. "I'm not just like a little a kid anymore....I think that's just going to add to the performance factor a bit." (Oh, so this time she is actually going to dance, instead of letting Ballas drag her around the dance floor?)


The daughter of former Alaska governor, Sarah Palin, turned 20 during her first appearance on Dancing and will turn 22 during the upcoming All-Stars season. Alongside her maturation, Palin has also improved her physique but wouldn't share her secrets to getting fit. (Giving birth, a chin implant, and liposuction. How hard is that to say?)

"I've been more active now. My son's three-and-a-half so he's running all over the place all the time," she said. "[I'm] just chasing after him...I'm just a lot more active; [I] can't spill my secrets, sorry." (She "can't spill her secrets?" Gee I wonder why THAT is? Does ANYBODY really believe you lose that much weight by chasing your three year old? Please!)


Although she wouldn't unveil her diet and fitness regimen that helped her get fit, she reveled in the result of her efforts and believes that her new figure will help her on the show. "I think it's going to be a lot better this time around because there's a lot more confidence," (Translation: No monkey suit!) said Palin, who is paired once again with Mark Ballas as her professional dance partner. "I think that that will show in the dancing." 

Palin expressed delight to be reunited with Ballas, who won the Mirrorball Trophy with her fellow All-Star competitor Shawn Johnson. 

"I don't know how I would do it with anyone else," she said. "He knows how to work with me and he has lots of patience with me. I think it's a good working relationship, definitely." 

In other words HE knows to keep his mouth shut and she can trust him not to spill the beans about her many, many secrets.

Yeah I still have serious doubts, without the backing of Mom's now disinterested supporters, that Bristol will last much past the first episodes. Which means that IF we see her advance past the first few rounds of elimination that we KNOW Sarah has somehow pulled some strings, or done something to "satisfy" a producer or two, enough to have them keep her terminally untalented daughter on their show.

Taking a break from the serious to the just plain silly. Bristol Palin does her Momma proud as she demonstrates her difficulty with the truth during interview about her return to DWTS.

Courtesy of Access Hollywood:

Two years after her first “DWTS” run, the author and advocate (now 21) says she’s more mature, confident and ready to take the dancing bull by its horns. 

“I feel a lot better than last time,” Bristol, who has been practicing hot yoga to prepare for the show, told Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson at a “DWTS” rehearsal with pro partner Mark Ballas in Phoenix, Ariz., on Wednesday. “I think I’m in a lot better shape than last time (Not being pregnant this time and all.) and hopefully that will give me more confidence… I gained a lot of confidence through the show and I’m not a 19-year-old kid anymore, and I think that’ll help us this time.” 

“[My mom] is excited, she knows that this season’s going to be a lot different than the first season just because I’m a lot older and more mature about it,” (And not pregnant and all.) she said, adding that she’s “sure” Mama Palin will make a few visits to “DWTS” to cheer on her daughter. (Really, what ELSE does she have to do?)“So, everyone’s really excited and I’m excited.” 

Being a good mom to Tripp – who will be 4 in December — remains Bristol’s top priority, despite her rigorous dance rehearsal schedule. 

“[Rehearsal] doesn’t take that much time away from him — just three, four hours a day. I don’t think it’s a lot,” she said. “And he’s usually doing activities anyways, and in hockey and stuff like that, (He's playing hockey in Arizona?) so he’s busy himself. So I think it’s a good little break away from him. 

Adding, “He’s just rowdy; he’s crazy; he’s cute. He’s just all boy.” 

Tripp now has a newborn half-sister, as the current girlfriend of Tripp’s father, Levi Johnston, just gave birth to a baby girl this week. While Bristol’s relationship with Levi may be challenging, she said wants what’s best for Tripp – even if that means being close with Levi’s new daughter. (Yeah somebody certainly got scared straight by the threat of having to go back to court!)


“I want [Tripp] to have a relationship with anyone who’s going to be a good, positive influence on his life,” she said, adding that she sent flowers to Levi to congratulate him on the birth of his daughter. “I don’t talk to him much, (You know like never.) but I just sent him some flowers from Tripp because that is Tripp’s little half-sibling and I just want the best for them.”  (So she is such a nasty piece of work that she sent the flowers FROM TRIPP, just so that she could say she made the gesture while making as much distance as possible from anything nice. Is there really ANY more difference between her and her mother anymore? You know except for the fact that Bristol still has all of her own hair?)


As for the ever-present talk about Bristol’s new look (she underwent corrective jaw surgery back in December 2010), the young mom said she doesn’t let the rumors get under her skin. (Palin speak: rumors = truth.)


“I’m so sick of people talking about my looks,” she said. “I just think that I feel good and people are going to say about whatever they want to say about me… They’ll say that I had my stomach stapled, I bet! They’re going to say a ton of stuff and I’m not worried about it.” 

Well you know what it means when a Palin does a preemptive strike about a "rumor" don't you? It means that Bristol DEFINITELY had her stomach stapled.

I cannot help but wonder how long Palin arranged to have her untalented daughter remain on the show THIS time. Because with SO little support for the Grizzled Grannie these days, and her daughter's terminal lack of talent, by all rights Bristol should get kicked off halfway through the very first show.

Don'tcha think?

P.S. You can see more video of this interview by clicking here.)

If Bristol Palin thought media scrutiny was vicious BEFORE, just wait.

There are more and more indications that the kid gloves the media have used while dealing with the Palin brood in the past may no longer be standard issue, as the Palins continue to try and squeeze as much out of their "fifteen minutes of fame" as humanly possible.

With the absolute flop of Bristol's own reality show,  it appears that MOST in the media just want these people to fucking go away.

Check out this write up from the Daily Mail concerning Bristol's upcoming appearance on DWTS:

She amazingly ended up in third place when she starred in Dancing With The Stars, despite attracting lower scores than her competitors. 

However Bristol Palin will be hoping for better luck second time round when she returns to the U.S. reality show for the upcoming All-Stars season. 

Bristol, daughter of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, has reunited with professional partner Mark Ballas, who she danced to third place with during the 11th season two years ago. 

Although this time, Bristol looks rather different. The abstinence advocate is a lot slimmer and facially looks different after undergoing 'corrective' facial surgery for 'medical reasons'. 

Yes even the Daily Mail does not buy the story that Bristol looks different due to "corrective facial surgery" for "medical reasons." (And gee, that was SUCH a believable cover story.)

And though they are not directly addressing the elephant in the room, somehow I doubt that it will not be addressed numerous times if Bristol somehow manages to last past the first round of eliminations.

And if I were her I would not expect the same level of support from her mother's crazed fans to keep her on the show that she benefited from the LAST time.

Especially since a petition that was circulated to force the RNC to allow Palin a speaking slot at the convention has only attracted 1575 signatures as of this post. And that is for a petition to get their idol onto the stage at THEIR convention!

That can only mean that Palin has lost virtually ALL of her support among the fringe, and that she truly is, what we always dreamed she would someday be, a has been.

Which of course means that THIS time Bristol will be judged on her actual performances, and NOT on the frantic, and repetitive, voting from the lunatics who once believed that her mother was the second coming of Ronald Reagan.

Gee I can hardy wait to see how THAT works out for her.

I have no words.

Courtesy of ABC:

BRISTOL PALIN teams up with two-time champ MARK BALLAS, who is returning for his 11th season. 

You know considering the fact that EVERY SINGLE reality show that the Palins appear on ends up crashing and burning, you would think that the  producers of DWTS would try to get this albatross off their program just as soon as humanly possible.

Though considering how the public has turned against the Palins lately that will no doubt happen all by itself.

Does ANYBODY hate their life as much as DWTS's Mark Ballas?

"Twice. I get stuck with that no talent moron twice! Fuck my life."

Courtesy of The Clicker:

Reality star Bristol Palin will once again dance her season 11 partner Mark Ballas.

Look I don't care what Ballas may say publicly, there is NO WAY that he enjoyed his experience dragging the clumsy, and rapidly expanding Bristol Palin around the dance floor in 2010.
 

Oh well perhaps Mark will get lucky this time and ALL he will have to contend with is her lack of talent and good work ethic, and NOT a ballooning weight gain.

"Don't squeeze too hard my water might break!"
