Bristol Palin 'Excited' for 'Dancing With the Stars' Gig
Bristol Palin is moving on from her recent breakup from Levi Johnston by hitting the dance floor. Sarah Palin's 19-year-old daughter has officially been cast on season 11 of 'Dancing With the Stars,'
E! News is reporting and sources confirm to
PopEater.
Although she has never danced before, Palin is looking forward to living in LA while the show tapes and is bringing her son, Tripp, with her, sources at ABC tell PopEater's Naughty But Nice Rob. Her proud mama plans to be sitting in the front row cheering her daughter on.
"Bristol is excited and scared and hopes she gets Maksim Chmerkovskiy as her partner," the source adds.
Last season, he and Erin Andrews turned up the heat on (and off) the dance floor -- but the brash dancer still hasn't taken a star to the top to win the mirror-ball trophy.
According to
E! News, David Hasselhoff, Audrina Patridge, The Situation and Brandy have all been cast on the upcoming season, which premieres Sept. 20.

I may be a bit naive, but I'm not sure how being an unwed teenage mother qualifies one to be a "star". Dancing with the Stars used to have some true stars from many disaplines. But it appears they are picking from the very bottom of the barrel.

I refused to watch last season when they announced that that Gosselin woman was cast - Guess what? Didn't miss it at all and when, "So You Think You Can Dance?" came on, I enjoyed it even more.
This show has just progressively gone down hill in terms of it's "stars". But people, if you watch, they will keep inviting the tabloid "stars" each and everytime.

That Max guy is the rudest of them all. Why would anyone want to partner with him? He is the one I like least. That Palin gal sure has a knack for picking Loosers! Darn it! That means we gotta look at that Tea Party Mama again. Time to tune-out!

I think Jerry Springer is more the appropro TV show for the Palin's.

This pig needs to go away and take her mama pig with her!

Yea right, mama pig as you call her will probably be your next president the rate Obamma is going! yea!
I find nothing wrong with Bristol Palin, although I cannot stand her mother.
She is trying to raise her child without welfare. Leave her alone. Just don't show me Sarah's face.

Apparently Momma isn't sharing all her thousands she pulling in flappin' her gums. Gotta get the kid in the business.
the word star obviously does not mean what it used to mean.

What is with these morons ????? Didn't her mother claim Obama was pals with the Hollywood insiders during election ????? What exactly is she doing now ???????? Is this the same as pallying around with Hollywood ??????? Guess, money really does talk !!! As far as the daughter is concerned, she is not a star. She is giving speaches, now is going to be on DWTS so what is taking care of her child ????????? Why can't the Palins just fade into the sunset ?????? Who are the idiots who think giving more publicity to this idiot family makes for good business ?????

There is absolutely no reason why Bristol Palin should not be on DWTS. She was invited, she has as much right as anyone else who was invited. I jusst do not get the hatred from the so-called "tolerant" left.

RIGHT ON Marcia!!
Because she's not a 'star' - she's a politicians daughter.
Ha,Ha all you who insist you won't watch this season will be right there as usual. Statements like that almost guarantee it so your not fooling anyone just yourselves.

If they put her in the skimp outfits old Mama Bear will have a fit. This hits the Conservative RIGHT WING that is Mama's base. If they put her in boring dresses she is voted off by week 2. But the biggest issue is what makes Bristol Palin a star. Because she has a bastard child? The producers are desperate for "names"

OMG, I will not watch next season. Just another example of the greedy Palin's looking for fortune and fame. GROSS!
