“Dancing with the Stars” producers were overjoyed by the ratings Bristol Palin brought the show so now they want ANOTHER Palin for next season. Sarah is pretty much out of the question, so they’re after Bristol’s dad Todd Palin. Bristol shocked viewers when she landed in the top three, although she DID improve, she was never in winner Jennifer Grey’s league. DWTS is also interested in another politician’s daughter – Meghan McCain.
Margaret Cho had a few things to say about her Dancing with the Stars competitor Bristol Palin, after the fact. Cho blogged that Sarah Palin FORCED her daughter to do DWTS. According to Margaret’s well-placed source, Sarah blamed Bristol’s unwed motherhood and personal problems for costing her the election. She felt that if Bristol did the popular show, people would learn to love her and she’d become an asset. Indeed, Cho really liked Bristol and described her as “warm and incredibly supportive” and felt bad about the weight criticism she had to endure. Not winning probably made Bristol even more likeable.
What IS it with these Palins? Once the most openly maligned family in America has turned everything around and now it seems they can do no wrong. Bristol continues to clump her way through “Dancing With The Stars” while far better dancers are voted off. And Sarah’s new show “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” broke the TLC ratings record for a premier, drawing five million viewers. The Hollywood Reporter says both fans and critics will find what they’re looking for on Sarah’s show. The Palin’s popularity continues to astonish us.
Our favorite backstage gossip from “Dancing with the Stars” involves Bristol Palin and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino. According to The Enquirer, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin got very upset when her daughter started rambling on and on about how “cool” and “smart” the Jersey Shore star is. Bristol, 19, admires how Mike, 29, has managed his show business career, and they both happen to be living in the same apartment complex during the dance competition. She figures she could learn a lot from him. Her mother Sarah, however, fears that Bristol will end up running around with party boy Mike and warned her to stay away.

This is a front yard in Hollywood, California. There’s something very unsettling about this hanging effigy of Sarah Palin. It smacks of sexism and worse. John McCain is featured in flames at the top of the house. What kind of people occupy this home? More important, what has this woman done to deserve such incredible hatred? So WHAT if we don’t agree with her! Can’t we voters support our own candidates without belittling others? This effigy is an insult to decent Obama supporters everywhere. MUST we turn into a nation of fanatical haters? It’s just another election.

The fact that publicity starved TV couple Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are endorsing the McCain- Palin ticket (and promoting themselves) is enough to provide Obama a landslide victory. THAT’S how much this pair seems to be disliked. Their fake photo sessions and fake smiles are not winning many fans. Some insiders are calling them has-beens. Note the six-pack, shotgun, and Palin T shirts, and try not to gag.
Readers have suggested that we designate a particular place for political comments. Too many comments about candidates are being posted in unrelated areas. So if you have something to say about the election, please do it HERE. As much as we appreciate the new political enthusiasm, we ARE concerned about our terribly divided country. Get it off your chest – just try to be smart, relevant, and …GOSSIPY!
You’d think these two people were the only ones running for office. They’re all anyone wants to talk about. Sarah Palin is getting an inordinate amount of publicity – mostly negative, it appears. We’ve never heard rants like this woman gets and doubt if it could happen to a man. Since so many readers seem to want to vent about these people and they keep leaving comments under unrelated items, we are now giving you the opportunity to get it out of your system. All we ask is for relevance and respect.
