Photos: Bristol Palin Begins 'Dancing With the Stars' Rehearsals
Bristol Palin is ready to tango! She and her 'Dancing With the Stars' partner Mark Ballas hit the dance studio for the first time. "It's positive and it's a good competition. I wanted to step outside my comfort zone and have a good time," she told
Us Weekly.
ABC sources told
PopEater's Naughty But Nice Rob last week, "Bristol is excited and scared" for her debut. Her proud mama Sarah Palin plans to be sitting in the front row cheering her daughter on, the source adds.

Would bet a twenty that she last longer than she should. Just like Kate G. Folks will want to see if THE SARAH will show up to support the promiscuous tenager.

Gary - she was not promiscuous
Gary, have you, your friends or single members of your family had sex OUTSIDE of marriage much less at least one time? Bet you don't judge them or yourself right? Then what gives YOU and others to say Bristol is promiscuous? Vast majority of our parents had sex outside of marriage and quite a few got married because she got PG.
It's for the mere point that she IS NOT A STAR! What part of that don't you get? Who cares who her mother is? Just because her mother is a loser/quitter, money hungry, fouled mouth, haven't got a clue, nobody, that was put up for VP and thank goodness, didn't win!! She has nothing to do with the fact that her daughter is NOT a star! Good luck with this stupid show! It hasn't been Dancing With The Stars since the fist season!

Dancing with the Tabloid Stars would be a better name. I am sorry but Bristol is the last straw for me......time to switch to another show in that time slot.

THANK YOU

NOT EVERY TEENAGER has sex, but perhaps "doing it" can make you a star.

Shes a Star ????? What kind of criteria are they using? Give me and the American public a break...Shes only the daughter of a lousy politician that QUIT HER JOB !!!

Leave Bristol alone .... don't you have better political losers to pick on like O'bama. Besides, they approached her to be on the show, as I understand it, she didn't solicit the opportunity. Get a life.

I think Bristol is doing a good job as being a responsible parent. Levi Johnston is doing whatever just to get fame, at least this is respectable work to provide for her son. She is still a kids adjusting to motherhood. Give her a break, as moms we make mistakes and learn from them.

Bristol Palin is a darling girl. I will root for her on the show and in life.
Reply
first, she is not a star, second , just another chance for her mother to steal the spotlight, third, wonder if she will get a cheeseburgewr with david haselhoff after the show

I'm glad she is having a good time and enjoying herself.
I am curious though.....What makes the producers think
she is a star? Other than media scandals and who her mother is.
Isn't it called, Dancing with the STARS ?
